Merry Monday : Classy Carnival

Classy Carnival

Who among us doesn't share a fondness for Ferris wheels, funnel cake and fireworks? Fairs have such a familiar and comforting air about them, but would it make for a viable theme for your wedding? Certainly!--if the right measures are implemented to keep it classy. The key is not to overdo it. Use elements of a carnival as inspiration, but don't get too literal.

Check out this recipe for Tequila Soaked Watermelon wedges, a fun snack for cocktail hour!

Merry Monday: Tangerine & Fuchsia

For a fun, fresh palette to combat the heat summer, look no further than the perfect pairing of orange and pink. The vibrance of the two hues provides just enough pizzazz appropriate for summer, where a more comfortable wedding style is expected. As tangerine is Pantone's 2012 Color of the Year, it's certainly on trend, but the addition of fuchsia gives it an original touch. One pairing sure to wow is Gerbera daisies and Dahlia flowers. In line with the sceme, orange creamsicles and raspberry popsicles would be a welcome refreshment from the sunshine. For those leery of such boldness, small pops of sunrise and posie could highlight a foundation of grays and creams, crafting a more subdued effect.

Merry Monday: Wedding Photo App

Disposable cameras at weddings are a great way to get your guests involved in photos but wouldn't it be better if everyone had a copy of the photos. they might even be more inclined to take them (and not the camera)? The APP Our Photo Opp lets your guests download and once they get to the event the photo downloads and everyone can see it! What's really neat is the photos are stored on an online event album! Love this!!!

Check out this video to see how it works!

Merry Monday: Wedding APP

Can't believe it has taken this long and wish we would have thought of it, but coulda shoulda woulda.....

Wedding App for smart phones, what a great idea! Your guests have all of your event info at the touch a button and always in the palm of their hand! We have set up a account to play with but this so new we are waiting for access.... the site is called YAPP

Looks like you can completely customize, just like you would a website, to fit your style and event! You could even do for birthday parties etc.,

How great would it be to have pop up notifications for any changes in the event and reminders! Love this feature.... would you use it?


Merry Monday!
