Colour! We are definitely seeing the rainbow lately! Many people are embracing this trend in different ways. For one, we are seeing bridesmaids’ dresses ranging in a plethora of shades, patterns AND sequence (!) and people are loving it! Another way we are seeing tones of fun colour is in the floral pieces! Bright and bold blooms are being used in full or minimalistic bridal bouquets and table arrangements. Alternative tableware, linens and the silverware are all adding a pop of colour to the tablescape as well. If blue is your favourite colour, mix in some vintage blue glass stemware or different shades of blue linens to add depth in the room.

Creative seating charts – the sky’s the limit here. Personalizing your seating arrangements really comes down to a cute and unique concept that holds a special significance between you and your love! Ideas are endless when it comes to your elegant, chic or rustic event. Wine bottles, chalkboard frames, rocks, crystals and shown here oranges (how adorable!) are all great ideas if they fit the budget and vision!

Food! We would be remise if we didn’t mention food. The menu, in our opinion should be an area that you customize to suit your individual taste and we love working with clients to make the menu perfect. Great food brings much joy to so many and it gets even better because all traditions are being thrown out the window. Food trucks, grazing tables or personalized buffets-it’s all up for grabs! Taste buds rejoice in knowing options are starting to be pretty much endless.
