Why A Formal Seating Plan?

You may feel that you're not up to the task of developing a formal seating plan. If you provide enough seats, can't everyone just figure it out on their own? Probably, but if you've ever been to a wedding without a seating plan before (and survived the mass tampling), then you know why having one is a great idea. Taking the time to develop a plan will reduce your guests' anxiety of trying to find a seat and it ensures that couples who want to sit together get to.

  • Whether you are doing a cocktail party, a workshop or the company picnic, setting a theme gives the tone of the event and gives you a starting point when picking your food, your music, your decor and more.

    2. Set a preliminary budget by determining how much you can spend on food, entertainment, room rental, invitations and any other additions that you would like to make for the event.

We've got an exclusive sneak peek at the best new trends from A-list celeb party pros.

    1. Incorporate Color Into Your Gown

    At New York Bridal Fashion Week, we saw gorgeous gowns in a variety of hues, from pink to icy blue to black for 2012. If you're dead-set on wearing a white dress, you can still find ways to include a pop of color in your bridal ensemble.

    "Consider asking your seamstress to sew your favorite colorful fabric to your wedding dress' crinoline petticoat; as you walk down the aisle, everyone will catch glimpses of your favorite color beneath your long white gown," said Preston Bailey.
