Recognition Societies Post- Game Party

Notre Dame asked us to create a festive environment for the Recognition Societies Post- Game  Celebration, our goal was to design a fun and energetic atmosphere that becomes the must see place on campus, post game.

Complete with a DJ, Pro Show, the "Endzone" Lounge was designed to resemble a bar right inside Mckenna Hall.

The Lobby of Mckenna hall was decorated in traditional and fun Notre Dame Flair .

With all bases covered inside, including the "Sidelines" kids area, filled with crafts, toys, movies, and games, we also designed a game day atmosphere outside. 

Merry Me! enjoyed being apart of the game day spirit on campus and look forward to the last few home games, with an Irish Win!! 

Inspiration Boards

Over the past year we have provided Brides with Inspiration Boards, we create these after meeting with the bride and understanding what the couple wants as the overall feel of their wedding.  Inspiration Boards, unite all of the components they have shared with us and our designs  creating one overall vision ( or atmosphere.) All while allowing the Bride to see their event in a unique way, seeing all of the elements come together before the actual event serves as a great reference to the bride and other vendors as they continue on with the planning process.  

Here are a few Inspiration Boards from past events:  

We enjoy searching and pulling photos for Inspiration Boards, as you can see each and every board is uniquely created for every bride. This is a great reference for us as well, as we continue on with the design process creating the wedding of the couples dreams! 

South Bend Clinic New Physicians Summer Reception

Merry Me Events was thrilled to partner with Matterhorn Catering for this event.

The Tuscan Mediterranean Theme included fresh artichoke, grapes, eggplant and tomatoes paired with succulents, seeded eucalyptus, hydrangea, flowering kale and assorted fall mums.

The center tent pole was the main attraction using this statue and grapevine. ProShow provide specialty globe-lighting bringing this event to life

We chose to use linen in a classic damask design in celery with wineberry accents.

Forest River

Forest River's Dealer Show is taking place this week as they anticipate 3000+attendees. We are thrilled to be part of it!   Over 187 tables filled this 80' x 180' tent with overflow outside. Merry Me Events was responsible for all the flowers, the fabric draping, linens and specialty rentals including our 'Ashley Shades' to fill the vast open space.

Rich Fall tone flowers were highlighted in these new-to-our-inventory 'party pots'. Available in moss green, cherry red, vibrant orange, brushed gold and deep bronze.

Proshow did the lighting and between Aay's rental and Burns Rentals combined, we provided all the tables and chairs+ china and silverware+ staging+ heaters and Generators.

Chosen flowers were mokara orchids, cherry-love roses, mango mini-callas, pin-cushion protea and apricot cymbidium orchids. Deco wire, mandillo decorative sticks and reindeer moss were accents.

We had a wonderful time designing this huge event and look forward to working with Amanda and her team at Forest River again next year. Many thanks and good luck with your show!

The Whitcomb - St. Joe Michigan

Surrounded by family and friends,  Stacy and Randy said their I Do's on the the Beach in St. Joe Michigan. Love the way our canopy looks against the Lake Michigan backdrop! What a fun couple, we enjoyed working with Stacy so much! Looks like Lifetime Photography had as much fun shooting the newlyweds as we did planning and designing their special day!

Thanks to  everyone at The Veranda at the Whitcomb and for Ned at ProShow for keeping the dance floor packed! 

Just like a Fairytale

Last weekend we transformed Hilton Garden Inn's Gillespie  Center into a Pink FairyTale, Pink Hydrangia and Roses paired with Ostrich Feathers were found in all the centerpiece's.  

The amber tones used in lighting the room, helped in creating the overall atmosphere we envisioned!
