Wedding Showers

If you live on the east coast you know that we’ve been having lots of rain. I’m sure many brides are worried that Mother Nature will throw a curve ball on their wedding day. But don’t panic; come up with a contingency plan. To prepare yourself for a chance of showers, pick up some wedding day umbrellas. That $5.00 umbrella just won’t due on your wedding day. For full coverage, be sure to purchase golf size umbrellas which are 60 inches in diameter.



You can also step it up with these lovely vintage umbrellas I found @ http://www.bellaumbrella.com/. Their great vintage umbrella will not be an eye sore on your wedding day. They also have an attachment you can purchase to add small bouquet to the end of the handle.











I also found this white satin umbrella from totes. Yes it’s satin but it’s also rainproof so don’t worry.

For personalized umbrellas, visit http://www.golfumbrella.com/ . You can add you names, date and message to the handles. This can double as utility and a great gift for your wedding part.

Happy Planning,

Save The Dates

I found these great Save The Dates on BrooklynBride and I just had to share it. These the most creative DYI save the dates I’ve seen in a while. If you want to personalize your save the dates, you can’t go wrong with adding your picture. Not only did the bride add their gorgeous photo but it was done in a way that will definitely have your guest anxious for their invitations.

Inspiration Brought To Life!!

I thought I was going to back in full blog swing but my schedule told me otherwise. None the less I didn’t want to leave my readers hanging so here is an update on what’s going on in the Couture Events by D world.

As I mentioned in my previous post, my mega wedding is approaching fast. Last weekend we had our design session. This is when the couple gets to see a mock up of the design for their wedding day. The décor for this wedding is Caribbean Elegance. The bride has a traditional style but I wanted to infuse some modern aspects as well as a Caribbean look. I thought this would be perfect for them because both are from the Caribbean and the bride wants to use the names of town from their home lands instead of table numbers.

Since there are so many tables we decided to have low and high centerpieces to help cut some of the cost. Here are some pictures, I hope everyone likes them as much as the bride did. There will be some slight changes but hey that’s why we have mock ups.

I'm Back!!

It’s been a crazy couple of weeks but I’m getting back on track. Just to feel my readers in on why I haven’t posted anything in a while, here is a rundown of what’s been going in the Couture Events by D world.

Last Sunday, my team and I handled the floral design for a wonderful summer wedding at Chateau Briand. The weather was perfect and the floral designs help add to the beautiful summer day. You may remember my recent post of the mock up centerpiece. I decided to add a deeper pink to add some dimension and a pop of color. We also added Casa Blanca lillies because the MOB loved lillies. Here are some pictures with professional pictures to follow.

On the calendar of upcoming g events is a wedding I’ve nicknamed the mega wedding! I’ve been working with a great couple for the last 8 months on their August wedding for 400+ guests. That’s right 400 guests!! All the plans are going well but the date is drawing near and I’ve been busy, busy, busy!! The bride and groom come from big families that love to party. The bride has a traditional style while the groom wants a wedding that will wow their guest. That’s a fact that we recently found out when he saw the simple yet elegant invitations the bride chose. This is when we all found out how much style he really has. Needless to say the invitations were redesigned and the results are just fabulous. Thanks to Le’Trice of LePenn Designs we have satisfied both bride and groom.

So this is what has been keeping me rather busy these days not to mention all of my other brides with upcoming nuptials, trying to go to the gym, have a life, family in town and oh yeah maybe, if I’m lucky, 8 hours of sleep!! But it’s all worth it because I love my job!! Oh and did I mention I’ve been writing articles for Blackbride.com? Check it out at http://www.blackbride.com/ . Once a month I’ll be sharing some more wedding planning advice with the BlackBride.com readers.

Stay tune for more wedding planning, tips, advice and updates on Couture Events by D weddings.
