{Mirror Mirror on the Wall}

Set under a magnificent display of mirrors and chandeliers hanging from the trees,

guests were treated to the Bumby's "Fair and Honest Appraisal " of their appearance. These NYC typewriter geniuses carefully judged the guest's appearance that reflected their personalities.

 {Watch a Fairytale Rise and Fall}

An insane LA comedy troupe entertained guests throughout the night. A handsome Prince Charming greeted guests on his throne....perusing Match.com on his Ipad, bummed that he had not found the one. A neurotic maid named Cinderella with a pink dust -buster helped guests into the castle after passing the Tranny Fairy Godmother in his/her pumpkin patch. The hilarious Wicked Stepsisters hung all over the gentleman guests and snubbed the ladies. Inside, Snow White quietly slept in her glass coffin as the dwarfs kept vigil around her.

 {Eat the Poison Apple and Shall You Never Wake}

"Where's the Party " created an over -the -top invite-a black box with a custom mirror atop - inside, a poison apple tempted the guests and the booklet above was placed.

 {Beware For You Have a Party To Partake!}

...and what a party it was! John Ganun's Scenario created a high -end magazine quality photoshoot in the backyard of scary trees and a full moon; my new favorite prop house, Rrivreworks (um, yes, that Rrivreworks...as in Kim Kardashian's wedding )provided unique and high quality furniture and décor . Carlos at Sterling provided jaw-dropping lighting . Little Red Riding Hood(s) served food out of picnic baskets .....oh! And don't forget the jello shots.

 {Watch Snow White Cause a Brawl}

...add playwright to my resume! As you can see by the pictures, Cinderella and Prince Charming's wedding didn't go so well. It was revealed that he was playa' after he showed up to the wedding with Snow White , attempted to marry Cinderella and then tip- toed away. After Cinderella and Snow White had their brawl, they went looking for Prince Charming...and found him in bed with none other than the Wicked Stepsisters!

Logically, the only things for all 4 betrayed woman to do, was to drown him in the pool.

 {Be Served by Her Dwarfs Who Aren't So Tall}

Okay, so they weren't really dwarfs. We made normal size people look like dwarfs with black garage cans .

 {Dance in an Enchanted Forest Till Daybreak }

Our incredible, highly talented DJ Ober mixed fairytale tunes with lounge music and kept the dance party going until the wee hours! The 9 -car garage was turned into an enchanted forest with 50 trees, stumps, and plants.
