Things To Think About

Tasting for the Big Day-


 This week was SOOOO MUCH FUN! We had two tastings with our Brides. When planning for your reception, there are so many details to consider, right?? Entertainment, Centerpieces, FOOD!! We always suggest when planning a reception be sure to ask about having a tasting prior to the wedding day. During this tasting, share your vision of the day. Things you want for your guest to experience; appetizers, passed hors d'ouves, plated or buffet, bar idea's, champagne toast, linens and staff expectations.

Remember - not all venue's offer tastings, so if this is the case. Ask the venue/caterer for referrals or have dinner at their on site restaurant!

Want a Romantic Feel -

Lighting is the key!  When looking at websites and magazines of the flowers and tables that you love, NOTICE ....  in the pictures... the lighting in the room. You may think you are drawn to just the flowers, but it could be the background lighting... sometimes cheaper!!












      LINENS CAN MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE

The long winter months are over and its time to hang up that drab color palette and get inspired by the blossoming gardens of spring and the long sunny days ahead. This spring is going to be all about color, texture and accessories. Below are staff picks for the 5 spring trends to look forward to this year.

Pantone’s color of the year, see what our owner Michael Davis has to say about the color “Honeysuckle” in Wedding Planner Magazine.
Accessorize! bring that last detail to your table with these gorgeous new napkin rings. Just think of finishing off that country themed event with these distressed leather rings or a gala with these new twist rings available in 4 colors.

Its all about Texture and nothing says spring like a bright colored burlap cloth. These custom made linens are made out of authentic burlap fabric dyed to perfection. Here are some of the new colors.


Cakes designed to match your linens!
Yes just check out this cake designed by Hansen’s cakes for the “hearts bride” on this seasons my fair wedding with David Tutera. It matches the Fuchsia Pucci perfectly.

Bold accents of black paired with the bright vibrant colors of spring. Black and yellow is a hot color combo right now. Black also looks great with pinks, purples and even blue hues.
