Great Things

Great things are not done by impulse, 
but by a series of small things brought together.

Riches

Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot. 

In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.

A True 'Fan'

Mandarin Oriental, Washington D.C. is pleased to walk brides down the aisle in the epitome of wedding day shoe couture – a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes.*
  
From now until December 2013, weddings that exceed a total cost of USD 50,000, will entitle the bride to USD 1,000 towards the purchase of a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes from Neiman Marcus at Mazza Gallerie.  A member of the hotel catering team will accompany each bride to the store located in Chevy Chase, MD, where she will enjoy a fitting complete with champagne, small bites, a monogrammed shoe bag and signature gift bag.

“In an effort to create a special wedding package, we looked within our own company for inspiration and found it in our ‘fan’ Christian Louboutin and his iconic shoes,” said Tiffany Gannon, Director of Catering & Event Management.  “We’re delighted to share Louboutin’s passion for perfection with our stylish and discriminating brides who look to Mandarin Oriental, Washington D.C. to create an exceptional wedding experience that they will never forget.”
