Barn Wedding Venues!

Monday, May 13, 2013

Last year we saw a lot of Bride after Barn Wedding Venues. Looking for a barn as a venue is a lot harder than you think! Unless you already live on a farm, it is hard to find a barn venue with the perfect rustic, chic look. You also have to factor in, whether the venue can support a caterer, parking, accommodations, etc. There is a lot to think about when choosing a barn as your Wedding venue! We thought we would help by pointing out a few of our favourites!

Belcroft Estates
Bradford, ON.

Fields on West Lake
Bloomfield, ON.

Hernder Estate Wines
St. Catharines, ON.

Weddings in a Barn
Cambridge, ON.

Eco-Friendly Wedding Favours

Tuesday, April 30, 2013

With Earth Day just last week, we thought we would put together our favourite eco-friendly Wedding Favours!

In our floral studio we are always very cautious with composting our unused floral. Event Decorator is lucky to have a beautiful property that allows us to be more Eco-Friendly. We try to use less paper, and have everything electronic. Not only does it allow us to save paper, but it also gives our Bride’s more access to their files - so they can always stay in the loop as to what we are doing.

Plants - Plants are great Wedding favours for your guests. It is great for the environment, and your guests will be able to keep your Wedding favors for years. Whether you chose to give away a tree seedling, annual flower bulb or a herb, it is a super cute idea!

Bird Seed - For all your nature loving Brides!

Tea and/or Coffee – Everyone loves a great cup of coffee or tea! Head out to a local market, or grab some Fair Trade Coffee. Then in a recyclable bag or box, fill with a single serving of coffee or tea. Coffee beans and loose leaf teas will work best.

Edible Favors - This is a cute idea that your guests are able to take home. If you love to cook or bake, this is a great opportunity to add a personal touch to your Wedding.

Local Vendors - Etsy is a great place to find a business that makes favors! Look for businesses that use recyclable materials for storing and shipping your favours. These artists are local, which keep shipping costs down, and you get a hand-made item! Plus, you get the satisfaction of knowing you are helping out your local businesses.

What are you doing at your Wedding to be more Eco-Friendly?

Groom’s Style Report for 2013

Monday, April 22, 2013

Last week we posted Bridal Fashion Trends for 2013, this week it’s all about our Groom’s style! As seen on Wedding Chicks.com, there are six fabulous Groom style trends we are seeing for this year. Gone are the days where the groom is walking into a suit rental shop last minute, Groom’s today are looking to bring more style and personality into their day of attire.

Color: Also seen in Bridal Fashion, we are seeing more and more color in men’s suits. More specific, designers are creating suits in lighter and darker shade of blue. Going with a neutral, skinny tie would bring this look together to create a indy look for your Groom!

Mismatched Prints: This look will have to be taken with caution. You do not want a mismatched suit that looks like he chose his suit with his eyes closed. Much like when you are mismatching your Bridesmaids dress, you have to match colors, or stay within the same color palette. When it’s done right, this is a totally cute look for your man!

Suspenders: This trend comes hand in hand with the vintage, bohemian trend we are seeing in weddings. Suspenders work for a farm wedding, to a wedding with a little more rock and roll! Our Groom will fully appreciate this trend if you are having a beautiful outdoor wedding in the middle of a hot August afternoon.

Pop of Color: Okay, so your man does not want to wear a blue suit, well how about a neutral suit with a pop of color? Event Decorator loves creating a boutonniere with bold colors to pop out against your Groom’s suit. Color can also be brought in with his tie, or bow!

Velvet Suits: Having a fall or winter wedding? This look will be perfect for your Groom. Velvet adds a fancy, loyal feel for your wedding day, not to mention you won’t be able to keep your hands off!

Affordable Tuxedos: Do not have a wedding budget that allows for a Tuxedo? No problem, many designers are now cutting suits with modern cuts creating a tuxedo-like feel in a suit. Most stores carry low price suits with a modern cut that will look great – No one will even know it was on sale!

Skinny Tie: This look can be used in every type of wedding, whether your having an elegant affair, a farm wedding, or a winter wonderland. A skinny tie will be sure to tie your Groom’s look together. Men’s suits are fitting slimmer, so it only makes sense to have a skinny tie.
