The shoot was so fun -- we traipsed around our neighborhood with our cell phone cameras in hand and accessories at the ready.
The coral dress was in the shoot, but I also like the Coren Moore that didn't make it to press...

Best of all, Revel sources (imbeds) where you can purchase these items, with only a click.<br />

This particular event was a challenge. How to design a dinner for 130 in a (very) formal Great Room of a home that was not yet complete? Days before the event a half-ton chandelier was being hoisted and scores of workers were still gold-leafing the acres of trim on the rooms. Construction dust was being cleared and imported french lace curtains were being hung. No artwork, no furniture, and (until the last minute), no bathroom fixtures.<br />
<br />
My task? Create a super elegant dinner atmosphere that highlighted the incredible architecture of this magnificent mansion. With a tiny budget. My approach? Keep it simple. Our budget would have been spent on one centerpiece to do justice to this home. So flowers were out. With no furniture, no artwork and million-dollar views, I wanted the space to speak for itself. White linens (to the floor, please), beautiful white china and crisp white napkins. Simple ballroom chairs, and a floor plan that keeps everyone in one room, as cozy as possible. Super cool music. And candlelight. I sourced 10 simple glass candlesticks and 5 votive holders per table -- 15 points of light multiplied is just beautiful. I created a "floating", ethereal and flattering atmosphere for everyone.<br />
<br />
The food, the music and the conversation made the event, but I couldn't resist putting perfect phalaenopsis blossoms on each table -- no party is ever <i>really</i> complete without at least a few flowers.

I think it's infinitely more chic to mix and match your wedding papers than to be too matchy-matchy. It also is a great cost-saving tip to "go digital" on some of your less vital stationery pieces, while still staying "on message".<br />
<br />
However, as we are retailers of some of the most luxurious stationery lines around, I am not so thrilled with the flimsy and poor offset printing that is prevailing out there in the digital world. <a href="http://pinholepress.com/?utm_source=Pinhole+Press&utm_campaign=640ba9f0d1-Wedding2012LanuchEmail&utm_medium=email#/" target="_blank">Pinhole Press</a> is different. I even print my Christmas cards through them (retail)! And now they've come out with a digital wedding line that is positively clever. Great for mini photo albums, stickers, and even accommodation cards, I can attest to the high stock quality and great reproduction of images.<br />

Just remember, your wedding invitation is the first impression your guests will have of your wedding, and a keepsake you'll want to treasure forever.

Wonderful company, great food, a pristine atmosphere, attentive service, customized menu -- all in the name of diligent party-planner "homework", how could I refuse?!<br />
<br />
The food was a delight to the eye (note all the fab serving ware), perfectly bite-sized and delicious. When a caterer does it right, it's so, so good. Enjoy! <br />

Fascinating it definitely is. For over a decade I've seen the work from, and heard tell of <a href="http://www.iprintery.com/index.html" target="_blank">The Printery</a>, in my childhood town of Oyster Bay, Long Island. Finally I happened to be visiting the town and sought out the ancient building to see for myself. I was greeted by proprietor William Miller, who gave me the full tour of this fascinating business and it's building. The site of the printery was the original location for the local newspaper, first printed over a hundred years ago. The wavy floorboards and original printing presses along with the piles of old invitations and stock makes you feel like you're taking a step back into history.<br />

Wedding Photography contest. PDN is a great photography magazine geared to professionals. As a judge I've loved shuffling through thousands of
images (when they were actual prints) and even more files (when they
became digital). Being introduced to photographers from all over the world
and seeing what competitors' submit as their "best" image (from what
must amount to hundreds of thousands of choices) is exhilarating -- it
sharpens my sense of what "great" wedding photography is all about. I've often known many of the winners and even planned the events that have won -- making the experience even more personal. This year I was introduced to a lot of new work, with a strong international focus.<br />
<br />
If you are looking for a wedding photographer I encourage you to check out <a href="http://www.topknotscontest.com/gallery/2012/" target="_blank">this year's winners</a> -- it will help you focus on what you're looking for in a photographer, and gauge the talent you're considering.<br />

This brand new party space holds over 400 guests for a sit-down dinner and dance and boasts an incredible outdoor terrace with a tremendous view of the East River. Never mind the mind-blowing cool-factor of holding an event at the UN. And the amazing preferred vendors on site including Bentley Meeker Lighting & Staging and my friend Sylvia Weinstock's cakes.<br />
<br />
For all of you who have these requirements on your wedding checklist, this venue's for you:<br />
<br />
1. Iconic New York (worldwide) landmark venue, oh, conceived by Le Corbusier<br />
2. Profoundly meaningful and important international institution<br />
3. Best views in Manhattan<br />
4. Large enough for all your best friends (and more)<br />
5. Outdoor space<br />
6. Prestigious preferred vendors<br />
7. Convenient mid-town location<br />
8. Blank slate tent to let your imagination soar<br />
9. Great staff who are ready to accommodate you<br />
10. Comes with a tour of the General Assembly (where else can you get that?!)<br />
<br />

But I'm back, despite how technology is trying to thwart me.<br />
<br />
What prompted me to get my act together? An invitation from Etsy to preview their newly formatted Wedding Store, in bricks and mortar! Etsy beautifully curated hundreds of their favorite wedding items to share with their industry, press and brides in a specially created pop-up store front. As I learned, old fashioned shopping/viewing tickets sold out instantly, but you can find all their special items at etsy.com any old time. And as of Saturday at 2pm, view the new <a href="http://etsy.com/weddings">Weddings Marketplace</a>, where you'll find wedding style curated by theme, how-to demonstrations, planning advice and loads of favorite etsy products.<br />
