The perfect way to "ring" in the New Year!

A New Year's Eve wedding celebration is the perfect way to "ring" in the New Year!

Be sure to select your venue as soon as possible and send the save-the-dates out since your event will be held on a holiday. We suggest planning your ceremony later in the day, with an 8:00 pm reception, you will want your guests to stay until the clock strikes midnight!  We recommend booking all your vendors (band, DJ, catering, Photographer, transportation) well enough in advance in order to avoid the normal New Year's crowd!

When you chose the colors for your wedding, try sticking with traditional New Year’s Eve colors like blacks, golds and silvers. For flowers, we love to add a little sparkle or feathers into the mix.

As for attire, it might be fun to make your wedding a black tie affair, and for the bride, embrace a glitzy gown, it's your night to shine (& sparkle) after all it is NYE! For the bridesmaids, we love long black gowns and the groomsmen in black tuxedos.

Make sure to send out your invitations an extra month or so ahead of time in order to give your guests plenty of time since it is a holiday and family who have already been planning on visiting for Christmas can extend their stay until the New Year to celebrate your wedding.

Decorate your reception with clocks, party hats, feather boas, Masquerade Masks, noise makers, confetti, balloons, glitter, sparklers, and candles on the tables. Since it is New Year’s Eve, get a large clock to have hanging somewhere in your reception hall so that everyone can join together to countdown to the New Year or even consider having a large screen TV so that you and your guests can all watch the ball drop from New York City unless of course outdoor fireworks are on the menu for the night!

We've put together an inspiration board for your NYE + wedding-enjoy!

 


Holiday Cocktails + Boardwalk-Themed Wedding @ Watermark in Asbury Park

In September 2012, our client’s “Boardwalk Chic” wedding was held at this one-of-a-kind venue. Liza + Jon are such a “cool” couple—by day, they're both professionals in NYC, by night/weekend, together in a band called The Normal Life-could they be any cuter? They really wanted to capture their fun personalities into the theme of their wedding and throw a BIG cocktail party (we're seeing more and more of this trend) to enjoy the entire day with their friends and family, without many interruptions.

The location was simple, they both love Asbury Park and frequent there in the summer.  Watermark was the perfect venue to set their wedding vibe-located on the boardwalk with the perfect beach backdrop for their ultra hip band, linen colored couches for lounge-style seating, and gorgeous dark hardwood floors. We accented their existing décor with white floral and a touch of turquoise.

No formal sit-down dinner allowed! It was important to Liza + Jon to have the perfect flow during the reception--arrive, eat & DANCE! Guests enjoyed an anti-pasta station while boardwalk-themed bites were passed, followed by martini-filled mini meals—filet mignon over portabella infused mashed potatoes, eggplant rollatini with penne vodka, and crab cakes with saffron rice-yummy. Dessert-chocolate covered strawberries and beach-themed cupcakes, baked by the bride’s sister.

I can tell you that guests are still raving about the fun they had at this fabulous wedding and we can’t wait to plan our next event at Watermark Asbury Park. Oh, and if you’re a Bachelor Pad fan, look closely, you may see someone you know in the wedding party. ;)

Bridal Trend: Convertible Gowns, 2 for 1!

Wedding dresses that give you two looks for the price of one are on the rising trend for brides in 2013. Instead of buying two separate dresses - a more formal dress for the ceremony and pictures, and a "fun" dress for the reception, the top designers have offered brides the convertible dress - in other words, two dresses in one (for the price of one).

We here at Peony Event's think this is brilliant and such a great alternative for the bride who wants two different looks, why?

1. 2 for the price of 1, hello!
2. You’ll have a ceremony dress and a reception dress that will coordinate perfectly.
3 . Instead of a complete wardrobe change, simply take off a top or bottom-easy, breezy and a gorgeous new look!
  
Check out these five fabulous finds. We saw the Anne Barge gown last week at Elizabeth Johns in Morristown, NJ and completely fell head over heels in love-it's stunning!

We'd love to hear if you're wearing a convertible dress on your special day, you did, or just share your thoughts.

Tips For Rainy Day Weddings

Wedding day forecast: RAIN.

We’ve never come across a couple who was wishing for a wedding day filled with rain; however, it’s always a possibility. Instead of stressing about the tears of mother nature, embrace the fact, be prepared and make the best of it. Preparation is good not only for you mentally but also for your wedding party & guests. After all, they do say it's good luck and we all need a little luck..

If you’re having your wedding at an outdoor venue, you most certainly need to have a plan B in place. By having a professional wedding planner to help plan your wedding this plan B will already be in place. You can also utilize the help of a Day of Coordinator to assist on the day of your wedding, as we have plenty of first-hand experience in dealing with rainy day weddings. Check out our tips for rainy day weddings!

{Plan B Updates}

Include a separate inclement weather card. This card goes out with your wedding invitations. If you are planning a wedding during a rainy season then this card is a must have. This card will have information on it pertaining to what the Plan B is. It may be an alternate location along with directions. It can also include a contact phone number to call 24 hours in advance to determine if in fact the plan B will be utilized.

If it’s not during a rainy season, you could have Plan B information put on your welcome letter or on your wedding website.

{Tent Rentals}

Reserve a tent. Most tent rental companies only require a deposit to reserve the tent and you can get the deposit back if you cancel within a few days of the wedding. This gives you the added security in knowing if you need the tent it is on reserve.

{Umbrellas}

If rainy weather is in the forecast have plenty of golf size umbrellas on hand for guests to use during the ceremony if no alternate area can be arranged. Even if you have an alternate indoor/covered location ushers can use umbrellas to escort guests from their vehicles to the

covered area. Purchasing umbrellas in coordinating wedding colors will make for beautiful rainy day wedding photos! {www.bellaumbrella.com} You could also stick umbrellas in drinks to play on the day!

{Rain Boots}

Great bridal party gifts, can always return them if the rain holds off! Your bridesmaids will be so grateful that they do not have to walk through puddles in their heels! Plus, who doesn’t need another pair of cute rubber rain boots! Check out the photo below with the red Hunters, Laura from Billingham Photography, lent her bride these fun and appropriate boots before taking her out for her portrait-we love when photographers offer extra ah-mazing props! Kudos, Laura!

{Rubber Ducks}

Embrace the Rain! Have cute props that you can incorporate into your wedding photos/photo booth such as rubber duckies and toy boats to place in puddles of rain to really reflect that you didn’t let the weather ruin your beautiful day.

{Alternative Photo Plans}

Talk to your photographer and find out alternative, unique places in case your planned outdoor photo sessions have to be re-routed indoors. Take this as an opportunity to be really creative, an art gallery, museum, etc.
