Got Cookies?

We have seen people use cookies as desserts at baby showers and small parties, but believe it or not, there are other ways to incorporate these tasty treats.  For example, how cute are these customized bridesmaids cookies?  What a "sweet" way to ask your girlfriends to be a part of your big day!
Another idea would be to use them as wedding favors.  Whether they're decorated as a wedding dress, bouquet or the bride and groom, your guests will remember and enjoy every bite of this scrumptious goodie.



Also, having a dessert table filled with easy to eat treats, like cookies, will be greatly appreciated by your guests that don't want to hassle with a piece of cake or the ones that just plain don't like it. 


Here a few more ideas:

Nashville's Modern Home Tour

The Modern Home Tour got a southern treat this year.
The company organizes 27 tours across the country. They came to Nashville on November 3, 2012.
This was their first time touring Nashville.

People all over bought tickets for the self-guided tour and viewed the homes from 11 a.m.-5 p.m..
Five homes were shown in the tour. The architects who designed these masterpieces included Bruce Draper, Building Ideas, LLC, Lisa Friedland, and Ryan Thewes. With each home having its own distinct personality, the audience was able to capture the beauty of each one. Whether it was an old home turned new, or freshly built houses. Nashville Event Planning teamed up with Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee, where a portion of the proceeds from each ticket sold were donated to the local chapter.

Alex & Josh's Wedding

 Congratulations to Alex and Josh McDonald! The two where married on October 6, 2012. They tied the knot at Stones River Baptist Church in Murfreesboro, TN. Being an animal lover, it was only natural that Alex incorporate her horses into her big day by making sure they were included in some of the photographs taken. Beautiful touches of purple were added to the "country chic" decor for a pop of color. We set up a picture table topped with mason jars with their pictures and wedding date on them as thank you gifts. 
Take a look at these gorgeous pictures taken by Joy Chambers Photography!

Fall Color Palettes

For those of you planning a fall event, you might be running into some obstacles.  One of them being the constriction of feeling like you have to stick with the "oh so common" yellows, oranges and reds for your color scheme.  Though it usually works best to have at least one of these as your base color, you don't have to pair them with each other just because that's what's on the trees.  There are many other options for your fall color palette.  Here are some examples of possible color combinations and what they say about you and your wedding:

Purple and orange: Passionate and energetic


Gold and peach: Subtle and chic

Blue and orange: Compassionate and bold

Green and brown: Fresh and wholesome

As you can see, there are many different options to choose from to give your fall event the pop it needs to stand out, and give the impression you're looking for!
