A Soolip Wedding 2008

March 4, 2008 - PRLog -- A Soolip Wedding, Los Angeles’ premier bridal event for the stylish, modern bride and groom, brings together a carefully selected collection of national luxury brands and local LA gems. Gathering more than 60 distinctive, upscale bridal resources, who share a similar aesthetic and commitment to quality, in one unique environment, offers brides and event and wedding professionals unparalleled ease, convenience and inspiration.
    
A Soolip Wedding’s fashion show this year features the feminine designs of Carolina Herrera, the elegant and timeless jewelry of Harry Winston, make-up by Sephora and hair by Frédéric Fekkai.  The Fall 2008 collection will be featured on the runway alongside classic signature styles from the effortless chic Carolina Herrera bridal collection.  

A hallmark of A Soolip Wedding has been the unique locations in which the event has been held and this year is no exception.  Vibiana, a former Archdiocese cathedral built in 1876, is the last standing building in Los Angeles dating from the 19th century.  After a multi-million dollar restoration, this grand and opulent space has quickly become one of Los Angeles' newest and most desirable event venues.    

Throughout the day, “Conversations with Experts” provides guests with informative wedding planning ideas, insight and tips from the bridal industry's top professionals.

Sponsors of A Soolip Wedding include: Soolip Paperie & Press, Bacara Resort & Spa, Harry Winston, Sephora, The Grand Del Mar, R. Jack Balthazar, Vibiana, Carolina Herrera, Los Angeles magazine, Los Angeles Weddings, GetMarried.com, Frédéric Fekkai,  Classic Party Rentals, The Bridal Bar and Stellar Films.

   
For the second year, A Green Wedding interjects environmental inspiration into the wedding planning process.  Whereas last year,  A Soolip Wedding brought together an intimate collection of green-minded vendors, this year, the event's founder and producer, are challenging all vendors to adopt three environmentally-minded practices within their businesses which will be publicly celebrated at the event.  "It is time that the bridal and event industry, characterized by its excesses, takes steps to give back to our earth," says Wanda Wen, a staunch supporter of the environment.

ABOUT A SOOLIP WEDDING:

A Soolip Wedding, now in its 9th year, was conceived as a “celebration of inspiration and discovery of amazing style,” by Wanda Wen, Soolip's visionary and Co-Founder, out of a desire to bring together an exceptional collection of L.A.’s bridal resources.  In 2005, plan A and event producer Tarin Wilson, agreed to a licensing deal to expand and raise A Soolip Wedding's profile, which has grown to become the coveted bridal event by future brides, their friends and family, event planners and bridal resources.  Soolip, the name of LA's renowned paper boutique, and Wanda's middle name has a Chinese translation, "One's life destiny is to seek wisdom.”
