What's New for 2008!

Happy New Year to everyone. We hope that it is a fruitful and prosperous 2008 for all of you. As the trends of 2007 have come and gone (and some live on), we are sure that you are wondering what's Hot for 2008 weddings and events.

COLORS ~

Well, the good news is that golds, silvers, and different shades of metallic are still in. We are also seeing more of the deep reds, yellows, greens, purples, and blues - regal and rich colors.

FLORAL ~

In the world of floral designs, we are still seeing a lot of crystal encrusted bouquets and centerpieces which include anything from orchids to garden roses. Also, another great idea is to personalize your bouquet with something special, such as an antique brooch handed down from your grandmother or your great aunt's rosary beads. The key is to keep it meaningful.

CAKES ~

According to Martha Stewart Weddings, one of the hottest trends of the season are "cakes inspired by the age-old art of calligraphy. Whether with scripted words or sweeping swirls, you can decorate your tiers with flourish."

CEREMONIES ~

A way to include all of your guests in your wedding is to arrange the seating so all of your guests have the best seat in the house. Opt for circular or horseshoe seating rather than the traditional two rows on each side of the aisle.


Whatever the style you are going for, remember to define your personal characteristics and tastes for your big event. For more "Exceptional" ideas, please contact us at 734.929.4499 or at rsvp@myexceptionalevents.com.
