My second bride, Nicole, had a great disposition and spirit that went right along with the theme she wanted: a Jamaican celebration with Caribbean flair! And…she wanted it centered around her favorite color–a vibrant, royal purple that matched her vibrant personality. Nicole presented me with a pretty weighty challenge: In the end, she needed her wedding–purple or no purple, in the tropics or in the city–to simply be worthy of her highest accolade: “Fab!”

With those standards, I had to start making some serious changes. As much as I love that purple, there is such thing as “too much” of a good thing! I thought the color was perfectly suited for Nicole’s personality and I did want her to keep it, but my revision would help her incorporate it in ways that would bring class and style to her wedding. Most importantly, with that show-stopping of a color, I needed to make sure she would be the main focus of her wedding surroundings. After all–she was my bride! And she needed to be “fab!”

Nicole knew what she liked and was a great help at determining what was (and wasn’t) up to par. After some dramatic overhauls, the addition of some serious sparkle and a couple major upgrades that were up my sleeve, she was well on her way from drab to fab!

Last but definitely not least, Nicole joined me on a special “sweet” surprise trip you won’t see footage of anywhere else! Stay tuned for a truly “cool” behind-the-scenes trip that made Nicole’s wedding (and all the details in it) one-of-a-kind.

Nicole learned the true meaning of “don’t worry, be happy” when things started to change in her favor to achieve a Jamaican-inspired wedding that was nothing short of Caribbean paradise. This Sunday, watch Nicole’s “fab” and fun wedding oasis in chic New York City, and you’ll see everything that can tie together with a little planning and a bit of island magic.
