Here are her tips and video below, enjoy!
- Choose your location. The details and decorations depend on where your event is taking place.
- Look online for great deals on paper, and feel free to add colorful layers with a double stick tape gun to make the invitations more exciting. Try Lehr & Black for celeb-worthy custom invitations or Tiny Prints for affordable invitations with pre-designed templates.
- Send a Save the Date, or send invitations at least eight weeks ahead of time so guests can make travel arrangements.
- For table settings, use what the venue offers to save on rental costs, but perhaps rent a special charger, table overlay, or chair backs. Mindy suggests Classic Party Rentals, a national company for table and dishware rentals, and Resource One for linens and chair backs.
- You can use lighting gels or even cellophane or colored tissue paper to wrap around clear glasses for a bight touch.
- Personalize the event by giving every guest a place card and seating assignment.
- Flowers can be easily stuck into oasis, which you can buy at the flower market. Color blocking makes arranging flowers simpler and can be done the night before to save time the day of the event.
