The Wedding Show 2012

Catherine — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 03:33:17 +0000

All I can say is WOW! What a fantastic show put on by our friends at Forever Bridal Productions!

Our Cherished Celebrations team began setup on Thursday afternoon on our beautiful booth. We wanted to give the attendees a lot to look at and a place to relax and be inspired when they were overwhelmed with the sheer volume of wedding information available. With a color scheme of black, white, and pewter, our tangerine and turquoise florals really stood out.

And they took advantage of our inspiration books at our front table! Let me just say that the Chameleon Chairs (thanks, Classic!!) were incredibly comfortable. And I mean incredibly comfortable! If they fit your style, I highly recommend looking into them for your wedding day!

Our Invitation Bar was another place brides and grooms liked to sit for a while and look at the samples. We had a counter height table and Chameleon bar stools there.

In the back, a fantastic shelving system from Classic held hydrangeas, favor ideas, more inspiration books, samples, and our client packages. We lit each cube with LED lighting for a subtle glow behind or under each item. We received many compliments about our design!

My favorite part is my new LED desk. Anyone who knows me at all can tell you how much I LOVE LED lights. And that’s a lot! Now I have a cool desk that lights RGB or rotates. (And my kids love it!) We scheduled appointments and showed specific wedding pictures at the desk. I think a new “must” in our bridal show booths will be a desk area – it was a great space!

We talked with so many great people this weekend! I can’t wait to begin the meetings that were scheduled and start work on all of your beautiful weddings!

And a very,very special Thank You!!! to the wonderful Megan Bugbee for the pictures!!

Happy Weddings, everyone!!

Another Bridal Show!

We are very excited to be a part of the Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal Show in Durham on Sunday! It’s our first time at the Durham show and we actually can’t wait. Got the linens today and our centerpieces and décor items are all set. Should be a really fun time!

We also have a table in the Wedding Inspiration Showcase. Some of our favorite favors (say that 3 times fast…). Hope we will see you there!

PWG Bridal Show Recap

Catherine — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 21:02:24 +0000

As you all know, Cherished Celebrations had a booth at the PWG Bridal Show in Raleigh this past weekend. We had so much fun designing it and preparing for the brides.

When you have that much fun, the show has to be fantastic – and it was!! Gail and Jaime with the Perfect Wedding Guide do a great job every year with all of their bridal shows. Check out the pictures at the link above!

We met so many great brides (and grooms!!) and their families. People once again loved our “stress relievers”… I can’t believe how many people really wondered what was in those little bottles! (If you weren’t there, it was just M&M’s!)

So I managed to take pictures of our booth, but compeletely forgot the Inspiration Gallery tables. I’m hoping the fabulous Jerry Dillard of Jerry Dillard Photography managed to take some pictures of our tables. They’ll be coming soon.

So many great comments about our color scheme – not one we use often, but the pink/green shimmery fabric was just beautiful and I couldn’t resist building our display around it. People LOVED the LED lights, too. I keep trying to tell other folks that they are beautiful. Thank you all for proving me right!!

We had a lucky winner of the Colin Cowie book and Cherished Celebrations tote bag.

Congratulations to Erin Hill!

And also a big congratulations to Latesha who won our doorprize at the show. My friend, the fantastic Dr. Heather Sefried, the owner of Nirvelli Day Spa gave us a 1 hour Hot Stone Massage. Latesha was very excited when I gave her the gift certificate. Her friend told her it was from the booth with the “stress relievers”…

Let me know what you think of the booth!

Happy wedding planning!

Inspiration for the PWG Bridal Show

Catherine — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 18:09:40 +0000

So, yesterday I was doing a lot of visualizing of my booth in the upcoming PWG Bridal Show. It’s April 11 at the Crabtree Valley Marriott in Raleigh. (Click below for more info or to register!)

And as I was thinking, I was browsing the internet. I just happened upon this great site by Dessy and Pantone. Amazing stuff! So, instead of putting together a board like I usually do, I decided to try this. It’s a teaser about my booth for the show, too.

Tell me what you think! Next up is the inspiration for the Budget Showcase at the show. Yep, 3 reception tables decorated by Cherished Celebrations, too! I can’t wait!
