Lovely Lavenders

Lavender is a hot new color for weddings for 2011. You can add a new twist to it by making it soft and romantic by playing up the lavender, or whimsical by playing up the greens and hot pink. The choice is yours, tap into your inner Bride!

Transform Your Venue

What can you do to transform your venue? Is everything right about it except "it needs a little something"?
You want the platinum look for less, but the pretty centerpieces aren't quite doing the trick of giving you that fairy tale look.Don't despair, try ceiling draping to give your venue that fairy tale look. Disguise your room with soft, airy, light fabrics that will transport you and your guests to a land of romance and mystery. Fabric can hide all the imperfections of the boring venue that lacks in WOW factor that you  had your heart set on. Coupled with colored wall washes, you will feel that you have been whisked away to a fairy tale dream.
