We were so honored to be a part of Melissa and Josh's big day. You could not find a sweeter couple anywhere and their wedding reflected the love they have for each other as well as for their friends and family. Their wedding took place in Nashville, TN at the amazing Bridge Building. It sits right on the water and it is simply breathtaking. We were even treated to The Zach Brown Band as they played just over the river. You could hear them perfectly! Pretty amazing. For the design, we used a combination of golds, creams, deep lilacs, and hints of green to create a lush look that would complement the architectural detailing of the Bridge Building.

While we have no little ones running around here at PLAN (Besides Pip and Nora but I don't think they quite count as offspring) we have been blessed to the hilt with new bebe's from our dearest friends. Some are brand new and still so tiny and precious. Some are growing to fast, we're looking at you Miss Janie. And some are still waiting to make their debut. As party planners we truly feel that every occasion calls for centerpieces and cake but a baby shower is especially special.

Hello Lovely Readers, One of our delightful brides posed a question to me last week that I thought I would share. She asked, "Do I have to send 'Save the Dates?'". The simple, one-word answer is NO. No one must send Save the Dates. However, there are certainly instances where you should.

1. Are you having an out-of-town wedding? Send that Save the Date! If your guests have to make special travel arrangements, or if you're having a destination wedding, the Save the Date will give your guests more time to prepare for scheduling and cost.

As soon as that ring hits your finger you most likely will be pelted with a series of questions. A close second to, "When's the date?" and "Where is the Wedding?" is the loaded "What are you Wedding Colors?!?". For us, we take this question very seriously. After every consultation we sit down and brain storm a color story and mood board for that bride. We really take it as the backbone of the whole event. We think about the location, the couples interest, the time of year, and what they are gravitating to color wise.

It’s technically been Fall for almost a month, but yesterday was the first day that it really felt like Fall. Clear blue skies, a crisp breeze, and crackling leaves underfoot; the scent of cider and cinnamon and the hint of wood smoke. Autumn has always been my favorite season, and every year I look forward to breaking out the sweaters and watching the neighborhood kids head back to school. Fall is the perfect time for a wedding, but it’s really easy to fall into the typical “Autumn Wedding” color palette.
