A Brilliant Wedding: Lorraine & Dave, Reception

Friday, May 7th, 2010

Lorraine & Dave’s reception was a dramatic Spring Soiree filled with shades of salmon and green at the Millennium Broadway’s Hudson Theater.  The garden-inspired centerpieces from Rountree Flowers highlighted blush-colored peonies – an ideal bloom for this spring wedding design!  The escort cards were on a show-stopping bed of pave flowers – a mixture of spider mums, hydrangea and roses. Guests enjoyed a caramel apple favor for their “Big Apple” wedding symbolizing a donation to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering foundation made by the couple. The entire stationery suite was designed by the talented Kayleigh Jankowski and printed by Cards and Pockets and included a hand-drawn rendition of the cathedral and NYC skyline.

We still have one more set of amazing images from this special day, stay tuned!

PlaceCard Holders Get Glam

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

The creative ladies at 100 Layer Cake have really outdone themselves with using vintage earrings as placecard stands.  If my name were Theodore, Camille or Madeline, I’d feel very lucky to sit here.  What a glam way to bring in a little mix-and-match sparkle to any tables – bridal shower, baby shower, wedding or dinner party!

Escort Card Tree Challenges

Monday, December 14th, 2009

We love trees and branches as a dramatic touch for any event.  But, when it comes to escort cards, hanging tags on a tree isn’t the best route.  Since it’s not in a logical, alphabetical order, guests won’t be able to “grab & go” and it will create a bottleneck.

If you have your heart set on an escort card tree, split it up into a few trees and label them with ranges of letters (i.e. A-L, M-P, Q-Z, etc.).  Or, you can use the tree concept to display special photos and mementos.
