The beautiful Austin Museum of Art at Laguna Gloria.

The grounds of Laguna Gloria have delighted visitors for close to 100 years. Stephen F. Austin once owned the property, which he described as being “on the Colorado at the foot of the mountains.”

Clara Driscoll and her husband, Hal Sevier, the owner of the The Austin American newspaper, purchased the property in 1914 because It reminded them of Lake Como in Italy where they had honeymooned.

Today, Laguna Gloria attracts many art patrons and historians as well as hosting numerous events and weddings each year. Take a trip over to 34th Street to visit one of Austin's most historic gems!

Pinterest

With growing popularity of Pinterest it is now much easier to gather your inspirations and ideas into one easy to use digital medium.

As an event planner, I am often asked for event design and decor suggestions so naturally Pinterest has become an extremely valuable planning tool. Pinterest allows me the ability to create a design board and share it directly with the client. They too can add photos to the board and thus a concept is born! Many bride's that I work with have a Pinterest board for their upcoming wedding and I always ask for them to share their board with me and whoever else will be assisting in the design of their wedding. 

So whether your planning a small backyard bbq or the wedding of your dreams Pinterest is there to help inspire and bring your ideas and designs to life!
