It's in the Details

Whether in fashion, home decor or events we love unexpected details. A well thought-out detail can create more impact than an over-styled space. When designing an event, it's important to focus on cohesiveness (not necessarily matchy matchy). For our Open House, we decide to combine stationary with florals in a form of hor d'oeuvre labels. We added floral elements from the large arrangement to the tented food labels to pull everything together. Thank you to Little Bird Creative for the printed goodies, In Style Caterers for the yummy menu, and Paired Images for capturing it all:

 

Place Card or Escort Card?

As a couple nearing your weddings you are keeping track of so many details and learning so much about etiquette that it can get overwhelming. Today I'm going to clear up the confusion of escort card versus place card. I get this question all the time so I think it's important to educate so that you know what your options are when it comes to printed material:

       Escort Card: This card is often mistaken for the place card. The escort card lets your guests know which table they'll be sitting (these cards are usually picked up during cocktail hour). 

       Place Card: This card sits on the table and indicates to your guests where specifically at the table they'll be sitting. 

Tomorrow I'll be giving you an insight on pricing for bouquets and tall centerpieces - this might be a bit of a shock to most :)
