It's
All About Senses
Sense of Style and Cents of Style for the Perfect Wedding

San Diego, CA - In the wedding industry, my job
as a wedding consultant is to satisfy both the bride's sense
of style while minding the cents of budget.
Creative Visual Sense. Atmosphere provides an opportunity
to showcase your artistic sense of style. Sight is the first
sense your guests will experience when they walk into the room,
so engage them with a choice of colors that reflect your wedding
personality and include matching place
cards, menu cards, table cards and chinese
take out boxes to complete the look of your wedding.. From
my experience, today's brides are viewing their wedding reception
as an opportunity to create a memorable atmosphere instead of
just decorating. Look at every aspect of the location to create
that unique mood; the interior architecture, lighting and color.
Old wedding reception rules are a thing of the past. It is no
longer the "norm" to choose only one or two colors
for a wedding. When asked about table design, I offer the option
of creating each table as its own island of style. Traditional
elements can mix with contemporary, and understated can mix
with opulent. Experiment with varying the heights of the centerpieces,
mixing flowers and vase styles, wedding
favors, candles and color schemes to create an unforgettable
ambiance. Instead of a lavish centerpiece of flowers, a cost
effective cents of style might include a candle centerpiece
with scattered rose petals on the table, creating not only a
visual sense, but enhancing the overall impression with the
addition of floral scents. Another sense of style option is
actual theme weddings, complete with props and actors. You can
create a memorable production of your wedding, aranging from
"Paris in the Springtime" complete with a 16' Eiffel
Tower-- to a Casablanca Movie theme where you can party with
Bogie, Bergman, and a piano player amidst a dramatic foggy setting...
it depends on your sense of style and cents of budget.
Creative Audio Sense. Whatever your sense of musical style;
rock and roll, Ave Maria or rap, music is the catalyst which
supports the theme of the visual ambiance. I like to enhance
a theme by carefully selecting music tempo, before, during and
after the ceremony providing guests with an audio direction
and an overall cohesiveness. Cost effectively, using a DJ will
get the most cents for the dollar; however, there are live musical
bands with competitive rates and sometimes a combination DJ
for the best of both senses, visual and audio. Keep in mind,
music not only expresses your unique style, but also declares
your feelings for each other.
Sense of Taste. Whether its sushi, chicken or pasta,
this is where you can tie in the taste buds to tantalize your
guests' palette. Your food choices will complete your guests'
sensual experience along with the visual feast of colors, arrangements,
combinations, and your musical sense of style. As a wedding
consultant I'm always asked, "What should I do for food?"
I reply, "What are your favorites?", and then move
to the center of what the average person would enjoy at a wedding,
always keeping in mind your sense of taste and cents of budget.
While not everyone can afford sushi for a large wedding, providing
a small sushi station or serving it as a limited appetizer makes
for a feasible option.
At the end of all the wedding
planning, it comes down to your personal sense of style and
a cents of budget. So make a list of your absolute desires remembering
to weave in a little of each of the elements of music, color,
food, theme, florals and fragrance. Seamlessly pulling all of
these elements together is one of the services of a professional
wedding consultant, but if you wish to forego the wedding consultant's
fee in favor of serving sushi -- there's always a way to have
it all while remaining true to your sense of style and cents
of budget.
