Elm Bank Summer Wedding!


The Elm Bank in Wellesley was the perfect location for our late August Wedding!  The cocktail hour was held in the Italiante Garden and the dinner reception followed in the Hunnewell building and outdoor tent.  The room was tastefully decorated in silver and all different shades of purple.  Guests especially enjoyed the full candy bar and the professional cigar roller!  Thanks to DJ Raffi for providing us with these pictures!

TRENDSPOTTER: Video Invites are the hot trend

We've had a busy summer and gearing up for the fall, but it's been too long since we've posted our Trendspotter...so here it is!

Video invites you say?  Is this proper etiquette?  Yes, though we strongly suggest doing it as a mailing vs. an evite type of format.  Though, the eco-friendly paperless is gaining acceptance, it's still nice to provide guests with hard copies of the information and details.

Many are opting for a coordinated package of a custom labeled DVD with matching paper invitations and RSVP cards while others are going "green" and sending out their videos via email or social media devices.  Whichever you choose, work with a great cinematagrapher to add that "wow" factor that will set the tone for your event.  Don't be afraid to get creative and truly show your personality and style!  The video invite enables a new level of creativity not captured with the paper invite.  It's a fun, fresh twist that will be sure to make your event that much more unique and special.  Have fun.

Let us know your thoughts on the growing trend.
