How Can You Have the Perfect Wedding Guest List?

For some couples, organizing a guest list can be a stressful task; whether you’re organizing an intimate wedding or a big event, having the perfect list isn’t something you can do overnight. There are couples who sit together with an Excel spreadsheet and start to type names, while others prefer to write with pen and paper.

Start writing your guest list

Creating a guest list was a tradition where both families gathered and started to imagine who wanted to share the best day of their lives. Once you have the venue and an idea for the theme, the next step is choosing the guests. For most, it’s complicated and traumatic, but it doesn’t have to be that way.

Find out today, with the help of Eduardo Perrone, how you can create the ideal guest list!

Who should I invite?

  • Immediate family: here, we’re talking about parents, grandparents, siblings, their partners, etc.
  • Distant family members: for most people, extended family members are a sensitive issue, but if you have that family that you like to keep in touch with, go for it!
  • Friends: start with your closest friends, then friends in your immediate circle, friends from college or school.
  • Colleagues: you might want to invite work friends, depending on how long you’ve worked in the company or how close you are with them.
  • Children: discuss whether you’ll be inviting them to your wedding day or not, since this might change some dynamics, like adding a children’s table, for example.
  • Plus one: everyone has them and they’ll bulk the guest list.

After you have all your names chosen, you can pick your preferred organization method: post-its –in case you need to place them onto something, an Excel spreadsheet, or a classic list setting.

Once you have this figured out, another detail is making the invitations. At this stage of organization, the theme is already settled; the invitation should reflect small details of the event: color palette, flowers, the bride and groom’s personalities, etc.

Keep the theme

Let’s say you picked a beautiful floral theme. That’s something that you should take as much advantage of as you can. Memories of flowers should last more; printing the type of flowers you use adds a delicate, feminine and sensible touch. Some of these ideas can work for you.

Now, what if you’re looking for something soberer? Instead of using floral print, you can use the color palette. This adds up to a minimalistic theme.

Metallic invitations are classic, elegant, and the best: they never go out of style. Golden calligraphy, foil-pressed flowers, parchment paper; they’re perfect to write down the most important names on your lives.

How to Decorate the Sweet Stations for Your Wedding?

At Eduardo Perrone, we know that love is sweet. That’s why Sweet Stations are as important for your wedding as the centerpieces. The Sweet buffets enhance the theme of your event and add an original touch to the color palette. Besides, it’s a perfect way to offer a sensorial experience related to the wedding subject.

Before choosing the decoration for your Sweet Stations, make sure that you have already picked the theme, the color palette, the salon and the floral selection.

 

Main tips for designing Sweet Stations

 

  • Candy Bar: this station is usually located next to the Open Bar with a combined background. The Candy Bar only includes types of sweets such as gummy candies, lollipops, chocolate balls, rock candies, taffies and marshmallows.

In this case, your candy selection should be related to the color palette of the wedding (with tone variations to make an engaging contrast). Consider that candies are the main course in this buffet; hence you should use clear containers of different types, and also pedestals. By using these complements, you emphasize shapes and color patterns.

We recommend you to arrange combined napkins, scoops and tongs. Only use the tablecloth as a neutral background for the main decoration of the Candy Bar.

  • Sweet Table: set this station in a spacious table near your wedding cake or next to the Open Bar. A Sweet Table offers pastry and confectionery like mini tarts, cupcakes and ladyfingers.

The color tones of these desserts could be darker than the original color palette; by doing this, you provide a pleasant contrast to your wedding decoration concept.

Besides, complement the Sweet Table setting with a silky fabric or a soft linen tablecloth, depending on the food texture (crunchy and crumbly> silky fabric, creamy and mushy> soft linen). The tableware must look elegant and fine, so only use metallic materials or porcelain. We recommend you to personalize your design with letters, ribbons or garlands.

If you want to intensify the sensorial experience, include interactive concepts like “Choose your favorite toppings” and “Build your S’mores”. By doing this, your guest take on an –even more– active part on your wedding day!

  • Cake Table: your wedding cake is the focal point of your decoration. All the details must be added to highlight its importance. You could use pedestals, LEDs and backdrops. In this case, the floral arrangements have an important role, because they capture your guests’ attention and connect the table station to the wedding concept.

Choose the Perfect Bouquet for Your Wedding

Your wedding bouquet is an accessory that represents the most wonderful moment of your life. Besides having a dress that it’s ready to make some heads turn down the aisle, a wedding bouquet is a statement of style, sensitivity, and details. Today, at Eduardo Perrone we’ll tell you how you can choose the perfect bouquet for your wedding.

 

There are 3 main important aspects to take into consideration when picking a bouquet that adapts to what you’re looking for:

 

  1. The style and color of your wedding dress: A wedding bouquet should complement your dress. Once you have your dress, you can start picking the ideal bouquet. If you’ve chosen one that is on the classic side, a bouquet with a cascade fall could be perfect. On the other hand, if your dress is simpler, you can be more daring and have a more elaborate bouquet.
  2. Your skin and hair color: For blonde or light-skinned brides, a bouquet of white, pastels and cream tones favors them. For a brunette or dark-skinned bride, a colorful bouquet of reds, yellows, oranges is even more striking.
  3. Your silhouette: There should be a balance between your type of body and the bouquet you want. If you’re a tall bride-to-be, a long or cascading bouquet can flatter you perfectly. If you’re on the shorter side, a rounded bouquet can look dainty.

 

Once you’ve researched and cleared some of these details, you’re ready to have the bouquet of your dream wedding. Eduardo Perrone is here to guide you through the process of your wedding, taking every single detail into thought, from your personality to your ideas. We take every single aspect to turn this event into unforgettable memories.

How to Design A Vintage Wedding?

Vintage aesthetics have been in vogue in recent years, showing that old-fashioned layouts always revalue. At Eduardo Perrone, we use vintage decoration especially for weddings, mostly because the early 90s style adds a touch of sweet, pure and delicate sense of romance.

Vintage designs suit perfectly in outdoor celebrations, just like 20s wedding trends, when ceremonies took place in backyards, forests or hills. There’s a patron you can start to follow: the best seasons for these weddings are spring and fall.

Before deciding your vintage wedding decoration, you must know all the details and strategic corners of the set. Firstly, sketch the location of your sweet tables, buffet or bar, and start your decoration concept around it.

 

A vintage wedding has…

 

  • Chandeliers: they have always been symbols of elegance and royalty, their sweet lighting provides intimacy and mystery on every occasion. You must have at least one ornamental chandelier in the salon on your wedding day. Besides, the soft lighting is a classic feature of old times.

Pink and cream colors: they relate to vintage romanticism and a classic ideal of femininity. Since those days, the wedding design is a tribute of love and specially highlights the importance of the bride. But, if you are not into pink, you can personalize your decoration by adding another color to your palette and mix it with cream tones. Soft nuances are at the heart of vintage aesthetics.

  • Roses: “The rose is without an explanation; she blooms, because she blooms. Angelus Silesius.” This quote sums up the perception that people had about roses in the early 90s. These flowers were the vivid ideal of beauty, pureness and love… Nobody needed to explain it, just feel it. That’s why we recommend to add floral arrangements with different kinds of roses, it will provide a touch of bucolic romance.

  • Old-fashioned complements: choose three or four old-fashioned items as focal points in special areas such, as the entrance or the sweet stations, this will highlight your vintage wedding concept.

  • Contrasts: in the old times, rustic and elegant features lived together in harmony. You can combine wooden floors with silky fabrics, minimalistic crockery with opulent glassware.

Why is Decoration Important in Your Corporate Event?

Corporate events are a fantastic way to show off your company brand while establishing your event brand. This is your chance to give your customers an idea what your company is about, through an amazing event for them.

These events can be an excellent opportunity to show the identity that you want to exhibit to all the guests. For that reason, it’s very important that you know all the agency’s elements and contact an expert to help you.

There are so many things you should consider when you are planning this kind of event; brand personality is one of them. You need to know everything about it; representative colors, types of guests, even the language of the company.  The idea is to think of a representative concept for all these elements.

In a corporate event, sometimes, less is more. You can use flower arrangements, centerpieces, and even a big cake, but a corporate event isn’t a birthday or a wedding. The decoration needs to have personality, but finding the balance is the secret.

You can use some pink roses if it’s a casual and fresh event, or blue if you are planning something more sober.

Another important thing is the guests. You want to show the personality of your business, for that reason, when you are planning a corporate event, you need to think about the guests all the time; the order of the tables, the food, and also the style of music.

Organizing an event can be complicated, but thinking outside of the box for your events will not only be fun for you to execute, but fun for your attendees to experience.
