Winter Wedding Tips for New Year!
Planning a winter wedding for next year? Don’t settle for pinecones and snowflakes for your decor; get creative! Here are some new ways to incorporate winter into your winter reception motif, without being too cliché.
Centerpieces and table decorations can have a huge impact on the vibe at your reception. Instead of going with pinecones and lanterns for a typical winter centerpiece, try something more dramatic. Use tall and decorative vases for your reception tables and add tall winter branches and hanging crystals to your floral arrangements. The combination of these two design elements will add romance and elegance to your dinning area. For added romance and a touch of warmth, add small votive candles around the centerpieces and use frosted glass or silver china for dinner service!
For cocktail hour, hot chocolate and apple cider are typical inclusions you may want to consider, but why not do something a little different as well? Offer up white or peppermint hot chocolate and eggnog in small espresso cups or punch glasses as they arrive to the reception/cocktail hour. At the bar, offer chocolate martinis or mixed drinks with peppermint liqueur in them to expand the winter feel even farther! Both cocktail options should be served with a peppermint or sugar rim, in a decorative martini or cocktail glass for that added touch.
When planning a winter wedding, be sure and incorporate some new, fresh ideas to really make it stand out and feel more elegant.

Springtime is the perfect time to incorporate fun elements and interesting pieces into your events. Luncheons, cocktail parties, and even a simple barbecue can be made more interesting with some creative serveware and beverage dispensers.
For a cocktail party, the main event will obviously be the hors d’oeuvres and the drinks. Serving some of the signature drinks in glass dispensers or dispensers that are ornate and decorative will add some subtle class and sophistication to the event. For multiple drinks, consider using dispensers in varying heights and sizes in order to create a more interesting drink station, while still choosing dispensers with the same overall look and feel to keep . For the food, use cake trays or serving trays that have multiple tiers to keep from placing the food on one flat, level surface. Using multi-height stands and trays will give the food station more dimension and make your food look more inviting.
For bright and spirited spring luncheons, use more fun and eclectic food and beverage trays and dispensers, but be sure and once more utilize varying heights to add interest and dimension. Mixing and matching different, complementing styles of serveware can help add even more fun to an already exciting spring event. If you cant find various heights of dispensers, consider placing some on cake stands to add extra variations and interest to your drink table! Drink fountains are also an interesting conversation piece that could be included during a luncheon or event in order to make a statement. Drink fountains are perfect for punch, lemonade, or other non-alcoholic beverages that you may want to include in your spring event!
Finally, for barbecues, consider more rustic and out-of-the-box beverage holder options. Large drink holders that are shaped like mason jars are sure to be a big hit, but there are so many other options as well! Consider serving canned or bottled beverages in a wheelbarrow, a metal or wooden rustic beverage tub, or a (lined) wagon! For your custom beverages, look at rustic beverage stations, bars made of palettes, tables with rustic barrels for the bases, or even vintage teacarts! These special touches can help you add so much interest to your next event!
