Creating a Celebration to Remember
A vow renewal is a perfect opportunity to plan that glamorous party you’ve always dreamed of. The latest trends range from fabulous entertainment to sparkling table settings and centerpieces. Wow, your guests and show off your glamorous side with these five ideas.
Fabulous Entertainment
Think bigger than your traditional DJ or local band. Check into your local drum line, steel drummer, street dance team, cultural dance troupe, performance artists, or a mariachi band. Fabulous entertainment doesn’t have to be musical; you can also go with a caricature artist, photo booth, martini bar, a cigar-rolling station with a professional roller, a casino table for a few card games, or dessert chef.
Luxury Linens
Forget those traditional white tablecloths! Luxury linens in an interesting texture or materials can deliver an amazing style statement. You don’t have to limit yourself to a single fabric selection either, feel free to use multiple fabrics, like embroidered organza with chenille or layered tablecloths. Luxury linens also allow you to bring in rich colors like bold reds, rich plums, or royal purples in addition to classic neutrals with pops of bright orange, green, yellow, or pink.
Metallic Accents
If you’re planning an evening vow renewal, metallics like silver, gold, pewter, copper, and bronze will deliver just the right amount of shimmer. You can easily add metallic accents with napkin rings, chargers, mercury glass vases, candlesticks, or framed photos. Mix metallics with crystals and candles for a truly glamorous effect.
Custom Lighting
Never underestimate the effect that good lighting can have on a room. You can transform a basic ballroom into a sultry club with the right lighting effects. Lights can change the color of the room to match your color scheme or even throughout events of the night—white for the ceremony, pink for the cocktail hour, rich reds for dinner, and purple shades for dancing. Don’t forget real or electric candles! Added to chandeliers dripping in crystals they can add the perfect touch. You can also bring the outdoors in with gobo lights, which can project patterns (think branches) or your monogram onto the dance floor.
Luxury Lounges
Toss the traditional reception setup aside for something fun and unique with a luxury lounge. Create seating areas around the dance floor or on the lawn using couches, chairs, and tables in black or white with colorful pillows and throws for a club-like feel. Another great way to create a lounge vibe is to place long high-tops with Chiavari-style bar chairs around them for people to sit, eat, and talk. Use draped screens liberally to add a cozy effect.
