Dream Car Agency

Utah Events by Design would like to welcome its newest member to our Preferred Vendor Program. Introducing...

Dream Car Agency

Welcome!!! We are so excited that Dream Car Agency is now a part of our team.

Who is Dream Car Agency:
Have you always dreamed of arriving at your special event in the epitome of class and style (and let’s go a step further here, and add the word “vintage” as well)? Well search no longer for the perfect transportation for your special event because Dream Car Agency has joined the Preferred Vendor Program!

I first met Dream Car Agency at the Bridal Expo. And I was SOOO EXCITED because when I got married, I knew I wanted to rent a classic car for pictures and also to leave my wedding in. And, because my handsome hubby was going to be wearing his dress blues (he’s a marine), I thought a classic car would add that special touch to our photographs. I mean, who doesn’t love a handsome man in uniform when he’s sitting in a gorgeous classic car?

But there was a huge problem... I couldn’t FIND anyone who rented or even had vintage cars. Every time I called someone I was told they only had limos or stretch Hummers. I grew really frustrated and thought that someone really should get into the business of specializing in classic car rental because I knew I couldn’t be the only bride looking for this type of service.

So when I saw Dream Car Agency at the Bridal Extravaganza I immediately knew I needed to extend an invite to join the Preferred Vendor Program. They had BEAUTIFUL cars on display at the show, and I can’t say enough about how these stunning cars provide the perfect backdrop for photographs as well as a way to leave your wedding in style.

I mean, check out how beautiful this car is:
Doesn't the car add such a classic and fun element to this picture? And get this: Chauffeur’s can be provided upon request. AWESOME!!!

But the best part is…

If you’re interested in renting one of these beauties, you’re in luck because Dream Car Agency extends special discount pricing that is available only to clients of Utah Events by Design!!! So click here and check out Dream Car Agency today and let me know which car you’d like to book for your big day!


Once again, we are so excited to announce Dream Car Agency as a participating vendor in our Preferred Vendor Program. Please join us in welcoming them by leaving a comment.

Heather and Tyler's Wedding

Last Tuesday was such a great day as my friend Heather married her best friend, Tyler and it was a beautiful reception even if by saying so I'm bragging a little :)


The couple married in the morning at the Salt Lake City temple and then enjoyed a family luncheon hosted by the bride's aunts. Friends and family arrived that evening at the Gathering Place at Gardner Village to celebrate the couple's union.

What a fun venue for an autumn wedding! Not only is the Gathering Place a beautiful venue, but during the fall season, Gardner Village (where the Gathering Place is located) is all decked out in fall decor with everything from witches on rooftops to pumpkins galore. Such a fun environment for kids and adults of all ages!


Because of the season, I decided to bring in all the autumn-rich colors throughout the details of the decor. Heather wanted a silk bouquet as she was interested in saving it as a keepsake so I bought some high-quality silk flowers that were rich in reds, vibrant yellows and deep oranges. Heather was so pleased with the bouquet and said that several people even stopped her during the photo shoot of her bridals to ask where she had it made. Yay for success!!! Here's a great picture of the bouquet, the bride, and the mother-of-the- bride after the temple ceremony.

Considering the bride's bouquet was silk , I decided to incorporate silk leaves into the center pieces as well. And, because the Gathering Place is so fire friendly (most venues won't allow exposed candles to be lit) I had the luxury of using lighted candles in the centerpieces which produced a wonderful ambiance for the reception hall. Here are a few shots of the centerpieces:



Rather than serve dinner, a yummy ice-cream sundae buffet was available to guests with all sorts of tempting toppings! My philosophy is: where there's a banquet table, there's an opportunity to decorate! (And I never miss an opportunity to decorate considering it's my job and all...). Check it out! :)



In addition to the sundae bar, three different flavored bunt cakes took the place of a traditional wedding cake. So yummy! And I made sure to fill the cake table with all types of fall-themed elements including some lovely smelling cinnamon sticks that received many compliments from the guests sitting nearby!




The bride's wedding favors consisted of a fall themed trail mix which was contained in miniature chocolate-colored favor boxes, tied shut with a green ribbon and sealed with a foiled leaf. The favors lined an 8' banquet table while a fall wreath served as a center piece with a pumpkin in the center. This way, the bride and groom had beautiful decor for their favor table and when the wedding is over, they had a fun fall wreath for their door to their new home! I love when decor is reusable. It just makes sense! 




The entry way was a really fun area to decorate as well. Heather and Tyler weren't interested in a sign in book so we filled the table with tons of fall decor, candles, and pictures of the bride and groom while paper leaves danced from the ceiling.



All in all, it was a fantastic celebration and everyone had a great time. Many congratulations to Tyler and Heather and tons of thanks for giving Utah Events by Design the opportunity to design their special day!
Best wishes and good luck to the bride and groom!
