Tip: When planning the decor for your reception, often times the background is neglected. Think about what will be in the background of your photos, especially at the head table, where many photos of the bride and groom are taken. If you would like ideas and options please contact us, we would love to help!

Congratulations to Laura & Gabriel. Laura coordinated her own wedding with her unique beautiful style. Her venue selection was amazing at Barton Hills Country Club in Ann Arbor. The ballroom, the view and ambiance of this club is by far one of the best I have ever seen in Michigan. Coordinator Jennifer Nast attends to every detail! We were so fortunate to share in this special day for Laura & Gabriel with our floral design and linens. Our event team worked very hard to create the vision Laura had for her wedding. The only regret I have for this wedding is not seeing Laura as she entered the room! Thank you again Laura for allowing us to be a part of your truly amazing wedding!

2009 Woodward Dream cruise was by far one of the best events of the summer! We all had a great time this year at this annual event for the great law firm of Dickenson-Wright. The weather was perfect, a little warm but a beautiful, sunny Michigan cruising day! The great '50 cuisine created by chef John Spangnuolo from http://www.MotionPictureCaterers.com was to die for. The iced beverages kept on coming to keep us all cool from Mr Bartender!

Roll your napkin's with wedding color ribbon and insert a small sprig of rosemary. This will add some color and a wonderful fragrance to your table.

Don't forget the shoes!

Vintage Wedding at the Whitney in Detroit

2009-05-22T17:00:00.000-04:00

Elysia & Wes vintage wedding at the Whitney in Detroit on May 22, 2009 was an amazing event! The couple rented the entire Whitney mansion for the day and far into the night! Guest accommodations where made at the Westin Book Cadillac.
The weather made a perfect setting for their outside garden Michigan ceremony, complete with a garden cocktail hour and the Whitney's fantastic 6 course meal. The guests where entertained with background, mood setting music by Joe Summers Quartet. Floral decor from Heidi's Old Village Florist in Plymouth created an ambiance for this truly spectacular event. I had the delight of working with bride Elysia for over a year planning her venue from her temporary home in the United Arab Emirates. She was thee most remarkable and creative bride! Elysia had a vision and it was my pleasure to assist her with that.
After the wonderful dinner on the main floor it was time to rock on the second and third floor with a wonderful record spinning DJ Brian Rozman playing a mix of music that kept everyone dancing until 2 am!
Whitney staff served up a Detroit favorite at midnight of coney dogs and sloppy joe's. This wedding was defiantly outside the box thanks to all the great vendor's including MPE in Livonia, Nicole DeSalvio my contact at the Whitney for the past year, her great staff and BEAUTIFUL photo's by Silver Thumb Photography and most of all to Elysia, who is truly a champion bride that every wedding planner should have the pleasure of working with for a year planning this amazing event! Congratulations to Elysia & Wes I wish them a lifetime of happiness and can't wait for the next re wedding when they renew their vows!

WINTER WONDERFUL

101 WAYS TO MAKE YOUR WEDDING SPARKLE

Author: ERIN CHAN DING; FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER

Edition: METRO FINAL
Section: FTR; FEATURES

When it comes to weddings, June may be the prom queen of nuptial months. But there are those whose dreams resonate with the Christmas carol that speaks of getting married in a meadow by a snowman amid the sleigh bells of a "Winter Wonderland." For them, December, January and February are ideal for matrimonial bliss. So to the couples who dream of marrying among bare branches, holly, a fireplace and the Michigan chill, this guide is for you. We've talked to wedding experts throughout metro Detroit - florists, photographers, DJs, bakers, wedding planners and a bride - to come up with 101 tips tailored to those planning to marry in the frosty air.

Christi Henderson of Livonia, owner of Affordable Events by Chris www.affordableeventsbychris.net

83. Consider a riverfront wedding.

84. Your reception will be dark regardless of the amount of windows. That brings in an opportunity with lighting. Use lots of up-lighting around the room and table skirting lighting. Blue and pink lighting can create an icy look while yellows create a warm glow.

85. Consider bare branches with crystalline droplets used as centerpieces or large corner pieces with blue or pink lighting.

86. Shopping for your winter wedding decor can be done throughout the holiday season. Pricing is often lower for holiday items than wedding-specific items.

87. Ski resorts make an excellent choice for a winter venue with overnight accommodations on site.

88. Remember, most reception sites offer lower pricing before April, so you will get more for your money. "This winter I have a wedding on Jan. 2, 2009, which is a Friday - where pricing is even more affordable," said Henderson.

89. "I use a combination of bare silver branches, crystals and lighted cranberries for a colorful, icy look."

90. Candles are a must. They add the warmth and glow to any venue!

91. Decorate with ice sculptures. Consider low ice sculptures in the center of the tables bearing a single rose.

92. Snowflakes can add sparkle to the room and your cake. The invitations, cake and reception can continue your theme.

93. Hope for snow. You can even arrive at your reception by horse and buggy or sled.

Amanda & Jason's wedding took place on June 14, 2008 and as anticipated the wedding was amazing. The ship was decked out with lights, floral and linen's all to create this fairytale international wedding. The staff of the Detroit Princess and Affordable Events by Chris staff worked together to create this couple's amazing day. We even covered the additional travel time to the ceremony by leaving staff on the boat to set up. The Detroit weather cooperated with blue skies matched the water and the colors of Amanda & Jason's wedding.

2008-05-03T20:23:00.000-04:00

I met with one of my favorite couple's Amanda and Jason
to put the final touches on their soon to take place AWESOME wedding.
Their reception will set sail in June 2008 on The Detroit River Princess!
Amanda and Jason selected this reception venue that truly is outside the box.
The nuptials will take place in Canada and reception on the fantastic Detroit River Princess, complete with sailing, dinner and dancing. Private decking surrounds their reception room for guests that want to enjoy the view. Our meeting took place with the staff of the river princess and MOH Lena to select linens and discuss room set up. The staff was pleasantly organized and ready to do whatever it takes to make this June wedding the best of the season. Groom to be Jason is so involved with all the selections. Jason has been with Amanda with all our meetings and is making sure everything will be perfect for their wedding. Grooms to be take a lesson from Jason, it's your wedding too, so get involved in planning the biggest celebration of your life!
Amanda & Jason colors are blue. How fitting for the river boat as we sail into the blue waters of USA and Canada! They have selected beautiful centerpieces cube vases of hydrangeas with champagne roses and taller vases with Calla Lilies and champagne roses submerged in water. Their head table will be lighted and stagged. Live topiaries with be used around the boat to complete the look they want. It should be a beautiful summer setting for this wonderful couple.

Setting a Budget for Your Wedding

2008-05-02T13:00:00.000-04:00

Setting a budget or total expenditure is vital in the early planning stages. By breaking your budget into categories you can increase or decrease each section based on your own priority. For instance, some couples prefer to spend more money on their reception than their honeymoon or visa versa. Setting your priorities early in the planning stages will help you avoid pitfalls and last minute unexpected expenditures, keeping you from paying for your wedding long after your first anniversary. Try to create a three column spread sheet with the following percentages: First column list the items. Second column list your percentages and third list the actual cost. This way adjustments can be made early on in the planning stages. Don't forget to include a budget for wedding planning which can help drastically reduce all other categories!
Once you have determined how much you have to spend you can adjust your list accordingly. For example if your total budget is $12,000 for your reception cost would be $4440 (37%) and your guest list is 100 people you will have $44.00 to spend per person.

Kicking off our 2008 wedding season. Thanks to Audrey for all her attention to detail. Sometimes I have to drag her away from the reception site to get to the church on time. She fusses over every detail that's why we love her! She makes sure your reception decor is perfect. Every t is crossed and all i's are dotted! Keep up the good work Audrey.
We had the pleasure of working with another
chair cover company selected by our bride. Name I will not mention.
They where short 2 covers (left us 198 for 200 person wedding)!
Our staff did the juggle so it worked!
After the reception they came up missing 10 sashes.
I picked up the tab so my bride wouldn't have to.
We look forward to ALWAYS using Rene at Allstar
or Sharon at Linens by Harte to avoid these mishaps
Thank you Rene and Sharon
for your quality, accuracy and great linens!

Thinking about not hiring a wedding coordinator?

2007-05-03T10:00:00.000-04:00

If you don't have a wedding planner and are thinking of doing without. Think twice. We encounter so many mishaps that "wella" we mange to fix before the first guest arrives. Our brides and their guests are not even aware of the "fires" we put out. The details make the difference. We have had a guest arrive that didn't RSVP, who happens to be close family and has no seat for dinner. Problem solved usually within 5 minutes, we can whip up a chair, cover and place setting and let your great aunt sit with the family she came with! All that without having the hall charge for an additional guest!
