I had the privilege last month to coordinate a wedding at villa Norbu. This is not a villa that can rented for a week long stay, but is specifically designed for wedding & events. And specifically designed it is! Every detail of this place is completely thought out...

We had the honor of planning a wedding reception at the beautiful Norbu Villa last month.

I can't believe that the summer months are already almost over! I even went on eBay this morning to order my daughter's Halloween outfits (I'm a bit of a planner, what can I say?). I still have so much to blog and now that our traditional high season is behind me, I...
