Polka Dot Theme Wedding

When asked to create a modern, fun loving environment that was a polka-dot theme for a recent wedding I did, I was excited. Excited that they chose me, excited about the theme, & excited that they trusted me completely to do whatever I wanted to (with in their budget). I wanted the polka-dot theme to show through, but not in a huge literal way, sure I could have done the polka-dot ribbon on all kinds of vases & polka dot table runners & much more, but instead I decided to give them the modern day approach & give them their theme but not exactly literal. Take a look & see what you think about what I created.

Old Hollywood Style Wedding

I had the pleasure of designing an Old Hollywood theme wedding which I have always wanted to do. When I think old Hollywood glam I think feathers, sparkle & pearls, sophistication, black & white with a pop of color.

They had an outdoor ceremony that I wanted to keep crisp, clean, sophisticated & eye catching. I designed a mirror lined aisle for them with grand over the top white candelabras & crystal vases with show stopping white orchids coming out the top of them and pearls "roping" off he inside aisle.

 The altar area again kept plain, simple, clean, crisp lines & very sophisticated with a  touch of white orchids on the archway.

The reception was indoors at a hotel venue in the area. We did an array of centerpieces features candles, custom made flower arrangements & feathers. Some we made more grand & others we made lower centerpieces & simple, elegant.

 

 

 I also custom created this Marquee Sign for them because when I think Hollywood you have to have a marquee sign, right?!

Strike A Pose! Continuing Trend into 2013

Have you ever attend a wedding reception gone to cocktail  or social hour & you just kinda feel like there isn't a lot to do, so you are just kinda hanging out until the supper & dance starts? Well we have just the thing for you! Entertaining your guests is a HUGE part of every wedding - you want your guests to go away from your event saying "this was the best ever" or "I haven't had this great of a time at a wedding in a long time." Let's face it you want your guests to remember your event & be the first thing people think of when they hear the word wedding - fun, eventful, memorable, & beautiful! 

Photo booths used to be used more so for the birthday party & high school type of events, but why not have them at your wedding? They are fun & entertaining! Photo booths showed up at weddings in our area about 2 yrs ago & have become very popular. They are great to use as favors for your guests or just to add that extra fun to the night to keep your guests engaged & socializing.

 Now you can either hire a professional company that specializes in photo booths for you, see if your photographer offers some type of photo booth thing (as many do now), or you can create your own photo booth -adding personality & charm to your event.

The newest Trend right now is the DIY photo booth & we love this concept! I mean the possibilities are endless, you can create it for next to no money, you get to be creative, it will be one-of-a-kind & guests will feel more connected to you & your event.
