Tips on Planning a Valentine's Dinner Party

With Valentine's Day arriving so soon, you are probably thinking what can I do differently to show my spouse how much I love him or her on this special day. Even though love should be shown everyday, Valentine's Day has a meaning. So, what are you waiting for? Let's get to PLANNING!!!!!!!!!!

Plan Ahead: Every successful event starts with a master plan, which is then executed precisely. Planning ahead is the key to producing a successful event. This will save you time, money, and stress. Valentines is all about passion, Love, and romance. Your dinner party should say I love you, I appreciate you, and you are the best thing in my life. Always make time for those we love.

Stay on budget: In the planning stage decide on a budget and stick to the budget.  Ask yourself what do I already have at home to throw a dinner party? To answer those questions begin by shopping for party pieces in and around your home.  Shop at home first before you buy. It’s a giving you will have most if not all of the pieces needed to host your party.  There is no need to spend money on new pieces when you can use what you have. If you absolutely need a specific piece(s) shop around for deals; wait until they are on sale. Use the Internet to find bargains.

Get the word out: Start by compile a guest list with phone numbers and email addresses. Design your own invitations and e-mail them. Consider using Evite to distribute your invites. www.evite.com is a free service that allows you to design and email invitations to guests. This gives advance confirmation of guests.  If you would like to use one of our free downloadable valentine’s invitations at http://www.radeventproduction.com/downloads.html . Add your information in the text box, save the word document, and email to your guests.

If dinner is for your spouse whisper in their ear softly something sensational and relay private dinner invite seal with a kiss. Verbal invitation is also another option. These are free methods that are sure to keep you under budget and get everyone buzzing about your upcoming party.

Select a Venue: Your venue plays an important role in creating the feel of romance. Let me suggest hosting the event at home. This will save on rental and décor cost as your home is already ornate by default and no rental cost is involved.

Décor is the key to transforming your party space: Begin by incorporating those pieces you have in home to create an ambiance of warmth and love. These pieces can be incorporated into your meal serving, displaying of food, utensils, and beverages.  Set the table with fresh flowers while using candles for lighting.

Wedding Ceremony of Asata Washington & Harrison Jenkins

When I first met Asata, it was actually thru video chat because she is in the military and lives out of state. She sent me an email inquiring about our company and all the services that we offered. After the introduction of each other, she began to tell me how she would like for her dream wedding to be consisting of bling and soft lighting. The venue was just amazing. As you can see, the first picture is the front of Pine Lakes County Club, Myrtle Beach, SC and the second picture is the back of the venue and that was where the wedding ceremony was held.

Fast forward to me providing her with things she would need to make her wedding magical.  I proceeded to inform her of our services and prices. She was amazed with all we offered along with the prices because after all, since she lives out of state,  and everything was pricey. Her wedding was in South Carolina so they can have both her family and her fiance family able to attend. It was beautiful weather and breezy and just right for an outside ceremony.

Fast forward to our first actual meeting in March at the lovely venue below. Asata was amazed that I arrived at the venue with a portfolio of all of the and ideas for her wedding in it. I was blown away when I saw this beautiful venue.

Fast forward to months of planning the wedding. Asata and I chatted, via text, phone calls, video chat,emails. I promised her that she was going to have a stress free wedding and she got just that. On October 20th, 2013 @ 4:30 Asata Washington married her best friend, lover and man of her dreams Mr. Harrison Jenkins. I had a wonderful bride and the entire process of the wedding was extremely seamless.  Just seeing the smile on my couples face from the beginning of the wedding to them actually waving go bye to us as they leave the venue. 

We thoroughly enjoyed Mr. & Mrs. Jenkins and their family and friends. Everyone was a joy to work with and that made my staff work flawless.  

Here are some pictures from the wedding: As we get more updated pictures from the professionals we will post. 

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Jenkins !!!!!

New Trends for the Fall/Winter Seasons

New Trends for the Fall

I’ve been MIA for a while but I’m back, and ready to let you know what’s in the upcoming Fall/Winter seasons. I hope you’ve taken my advice and startd a style board….If not the change of seasons is the perfect time to start.

Lets start with must have pieces:

1. Motorcycle jackets:  I will have to replace mine this season, but this is a classic that will never die.  Worn with jeans or a sexy dress out on the town…you can’t go wrong.
2.  An Emerald Green piece: It is the top color for 2013 according to Glamour Fashion.  Try pairing this with other jewel colors such as sapphire or garnet.
3.    The Plume top: if you don’t have one yet…..GO GET ONE NOW!!!! Just make sure you buy the one that fits you body style…this could be the difference in giving you a waist or making less curvy.

Must have Styles

1. Military: For the past few years military styles have been making a comeback.  Well they are back  and they are not the girly military.  You want the masculine military style with the sexy feminine fit. 
2. Leather: It's still in and not going anywhere.  This season try some colored leather….just don’t overdo it….NO full leather outfits!!!!
3. Prints: Classic prints are just that classic….I think I said enough.
4. White…winter white: Don’t pack up your white just yet….just don’t go overboard…..white denim for a weekend out or a coat….got my eye on one now.
5. Hats and Beanies: When in doubt throw on a hat.  Bad hair day or not hats and beanies can add a bit of personality to any outfit.

Is the Pouring of Sand at a Wedding Symbolic?

Absolutely,

Either it be the lighting of candles or the pouring of sand really adds a symbolic twist in a visually interesting way for all. During a symbolic sand ceremony the bride and groom take turns to pour colored sand into a beautiful keepsake glass vase in front of their loved ones to symbolize the joining of two people, two families, and the unity of their coming together.  My first sand ceremony was done October 9, 2011 in Richmond Hils, GA.  This beautiful couple have an anniversary coming up in the next few days. Best wishes to a wonderful couple.
