Sage Green

Everyone knows about it, let's just admit it's happening...To Everyone!

Sage Green is the new black (or should I say the new pink/burgundy). Every bridesmaid from now until next fall will, without question, be wearing Sage Green to the Event. And if it's not sage, it's moss, and if it's not moss, it's forrest, and if it ends up not being any shade of deep Green at all, then someone somewhere missed the boat.

And this is a boat you do not want to miss!

So far I have signed 16 brides who have brought with them the most gorgeous pictures of bridesmaids dresses that I have seen thus far in my 20+ years of weddings. The gowns are perfect, understated, and a complex yet splendid addition to their floral color schemes. The best part of this subtle green addition, it complements almost every venue indoor or out, and when you pose for that very important 'bridal party' shot, it's all black tux's, dark green dresses and one incredibly beautiful Bride all in white. The effect is amazing.

So here's to Sage Green, may you bless as many bridesmaids as possible this Spring and Summer.

To Air condition or Not???

This may seem like a no-brainer, but it's not. Many venues charge $1500 and up for air conditioning as an add-on. Consider the following when making your decision:

Does the venue allow you to make a "last minute" decision about the AC?
How many elderly guests will be in attendance?
Is your date near one of the cut-off months (July/August)?
September Weddings can hit 'Indian Summer' heat waves
Where would the budgeted amount be applied if not to Air?
You would be surprised at the way different venues hold onto daytime heat. Visit your venue of choice in the evening and experience it yourself. Take along a friend who won't be swayed by your monetary concerns, and ask for their honest opinion.

I recently had a late June bride who got away without air conditioning because her Reception Venue had a large out-door area where everyone could escape the heat.

Did you know that 78% of all wedding day vendors show up LATE to your venue

This is one of the easiest "sore" points to avoid. Assign one of your bridesmaids a simple task list with vendor names, contacts and phone numbers, and have her call 2 days before, the day before and the day of, to remind each vendor of their expected time of arrival. Then put it out of your head! You will have other things to focus on as your day approaches. And if your bridesmaid feels like she is being a pest, reassure her, that the vendor will actually probably appreciate the reminders, as they are most likely juggling several events of their own.
