Slideshow: The Luxe Wedding Design party at Georgetown Ballroom
View Slideshow »This was no regular party. This party had aerialists from Enjoy Productions (en-joyproductions.com)
View Slideshow »En-joy’s Kevin Joyce (right) and the one and only Pastor Kaleb (left) MC’ed the afternoon’s events with flair and style. Joyce was a principal performer and director with Teatro Zinzanni before he started En-joy with his wife, aerialista Martha Enson. Their crew of singers, dancers, comedians, aerialists, auctioneers, and assorted characters (the list goes on) brought an unmatched dynamic element to the party. Yes, they can bring that element to your party, too, and the, um, Pastor, is ready to do right by your vows as well.

Hard to say whether it’s Annette’s background in theater, her generous and kind outlook, or her immense creativity and love of gorgeous things that makes her events so one-of-a-kind.
