We have all seen pictures from weddings where all you see in the dress picture is that plastic hanger that you get from the dry cleaners. Sometimes the dress stores even leave the paper body form in your dress. There is nothing wrong with having any of the above in your dress but when you professional photographer arrives please swap it out and get yourself a picture worth hanger.
One of the latest trends in weddings is the use of personalized dress hangers. The possibilities are endless and can include a monogram hanger, some form of I Do verbiage, and some couples are taking it a step further and customizing the colors with their overall wedding color scheme.

If you decide to go down the custom route, please make sure the hanger can hold your dress before the big day. If the custom route is not for you, feel free to get a rich wooden hanger to dress up your wedding day attire.

Time to get encouraged! I encourage all of my readers to go ahead and make a list of their five favorite child hood items. Done? Now think of ways you can use one of the items at your next dinner party. It does not have to be done in a large scale but I want you to think, if that item was special for you, how special it might be for your guests. Maybe even as a fun ice breaker, send out a short survey to your attendees asking them to list one item and have it set at their place setting.
We just love the way how soda pops can enhance an event. Whether it is incorporating color, personality or flavor, it is a great way to show your guests you went the extra mile and brought a unique element to the table. We have seen them displayed during wedding receptions, rehearsal dinners, the possibilities are endless. Below are images of ways to add soda pops to your event.
Loving the way the pop was used as a float

Love the idea of getting empty bottles and filling them with the treat of your choice. This could be candy, sea salt or even coffee beans

When having an event you always want to make sure you are implementing an element that most of your guests have never seen before. This is what makes an event memorable. When your guests are oooh’ing and aw’ing, it is usually because you took it a step further by adding something that was personal, unique and/or one of a kind.
We just love these candle sleeves that are made my Kaarskoker. They come in many different designs such as polka dot, peacock, army or just blog colors. Think about jazzing up your candelabras and making them different then what they may have seen at another wedding. By incorporating your color theme or pattern.
I also always encourage my clients to take all of their hard work that they have done on planning their big day and incorporate some of those brilliant thoughts into their new home together. These candle sleeves are a perfect example of how they can be done tastefully.
