Personalize your PINK day....


Want your party favors to be all about you? I mean lets be honest... who doesn't?! Try some of these PINK tips to help make YOU the center of attention at your wedding or event.

Cookies: At THE FLOUR POT you can put your name, company name, or whatever on the cookies. FREEDOM BAKERY AND CONFECTIONS lets you put a picture of your smiling face on shortbread and at GUMDROP COOKIE SHOP they will monogram your cookies.

M&M's: Get personal by dropping the famed Ms in favor of your initials. You can also choose a color scheme that complements your wedding or event. And who doesn't love M&M's?!

Wine: PERSONAL WINE will create a personalized label that you can put on wine bottles. They have templates or you can create your own. BEAU_COUP can create labels to go on anything; candle tins, mini tins or even lip balm.

XOXO

Pink it up! But.... don't PINK it up too much!

Everyone likes to throw back a cocktail or two at an event... just don't be the ONE person everyone ends up talking about for boozing it up too much. Being remembered as the life of the party is one thing... being remembered as the person that had to be carried out, that's quite another...

A little PINK advice from the experts to maximize party fun...
 If you plan on drinking, make sure you have a designated driver. EAT. And know your limits...

PINK tip of the day!


DEFINITELY do your homework before you go dress shopping. There are thousands of designers and silhouettes out there, so try to figure out what you are looking for by browsing designers websites. It will cut your time dress shopping in half!

Also DO NOT take a bunch of people with you dress shopping. Keep the number as small as possible. Remember that everyone has an opinion! This might confuse or overwhelm you and you could make the wrong choice. After all it is YOUR dress, not theirs!

Have a very PINK weekend <3

XOXO

Derek Goes... a PINK photographer!




www.goesphotography.com

Derek is one of our favorite photographers to work with here at SPG. His work is exquisite, and his calm demeanor and style make him a pleasure to have around! He knows what he's doing and he is never in the way of the event. Having a big event?? Need more than one photographer?? No worries... Derek's got a whole team!

The Something Pink Girls give DEREK GOES 2 PINK thumbs up!

A couple PINK ways to cut down the GUEST LIST

DON'T PUT THE "TALK" OFF...
From the very beginning DECIDE what your # is...
And STICK to this number!
DIVIDE & CONQUER...
Sort possible guests into categories, then eliminate them by groups. Just make sure you stick to these groups in order to avoid hurt feelings. 
DON'T INVITE PEOPLE YOU THINK WILL "TOTALLY NOT SHOW"...
Chances are they will! And then... you are STUCK with them and a BIG BUDGET increase!



It's raining PINK... HALLELUJAH!
