Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | HalloWedding

By Marla
Halloween is a perfect day for a wedding! Yes, I said it... But it's true! It's a fun night filled with the thrilling feeling of having a celebration with family and friends. Halloween is an easy decorative theme to apply in a wedding. Now, you do not have to go scary with all the decor! However, adding little hints of the holiday will do the trick and be a treat for your guests to see! A signature drink is always something guests enjoy. A halloween drink can be titled as "Witches Brew" "Fruit Bat Martini" is a way to incorporate the theme. Signature drinks are a great way to save money when on a tight budget. Stick with warm colors, not just black and orange! Have a candy table with Halloween candy and stationary This is a theme that can be chic and perfect to celebrate your day of "death do you part!" Be inspired.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | D - I - Why Knot String Art

By Marla
Incorporating these string woven boards is the latest trend of decoration for weddings. This project can be done with any word, name, saying, or symbol! Most of the items needed for this DIY project can be found at your local arts and crafts store. You can choose any color yarn or string you'd like. I would recommend using your wedding color palette! The wooden planks or a hard surface board can either be found at a hardware store... depending on what you're looking for.  This can be used for the table numbers, to highlight the guest sign-in book, at the head table, and as a keepsake at the new love birds home! Be inspired.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Black and Gold

By Marla
In celebration of the Pittsburgh Pirates winning baseball season, I thought a black and gold color scheme would be the inspiration to this blog post. In Pittsburgh, a lot of people want to stay away from combining the colors black and gold on their special day because they believe guests will link it to the city's team colors. However, when arranged in the right way black and gold can be a very glamorous color palette. In the pictures below it shows a few different ways to style your wedding with this color theme. For an antique look add lace with darker brushed gold accents, and use black to make the gold pop... If you want a more traditional theme, keep it simple with stripes and bright gold accessories. Both of these looks are elegantly paired together in black and gold. Both settings are warm, welcoming, chic, and perfect for a fall season wedding. Be inspired.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Tulips Wedding

By Marla
Tulips are one of the most versatile wedding flowers. They come in just about every shade of cool or warm colors, which makes the tulip suitable for any season. The flower can be used while they are still buds or when they are fully bloomed. Together they create beautiful flower arrangements that can be formed in any shape round, ball, square, straight line, tear drop, ect. Also they make a great pair to other flowers such as hydrangea and peony for the bridal bouquet. Mix and match like colors or be bold with warm multicolors. Be inspired.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Out With The Old In With The Blue

By Marla
Blue is a perfect splash of color to really make your wedding décor pop! From blue wedding table settings, a blue wedding cake, to blue wedding flowers, it is the trending color of 2013 to add into your special day. Also, the color of your wedding does not have to be just plain blue and white. Blue looks great paired with purple, yellow or green. Mix it up to try something new and different. This bold color will certainly catch the eyes of your guests. Be inspired.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Out Of The Blue

This is a perfect table setting for an outside wedding. The table cloths display a beautiful blue and white country pattern print which allows the dishware to stand out. As you can see in the pictures, it looks beautiful when you mix the different prints. The trick for having all the patterns mesh so well is to keep with the same color palette. This is a unique and elegant presentation that guests of the wedding will surely love! Be inspired.

By Marla
If you really want to be a bold bride, this is the dress for you! Lazaro bridal gown collections now have colors through the gowns.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Who Could Forget The Cameo?

By Marla
If you're looking for a more classical, 18th century "look" for your wedding then this is a great theme to use. By adding details of cameo to your decor, it will surely stand out from the crowd. The color scheme may also be unique with different filigree patterns, black, with pops of colors using light blues, bright pinks, and yellows to break up the color palette and allow for the cameo decals to stand out. The cameo accessory is a timeless piece that will surely bring an old world charm to your wedding, which is very romantic. Be inspired.
