Speaking of all the new pattern and print linens, we got to preview Premiere’s new linens on Wednesday, where Kurant Events served the most delicious pizza hors d’oeuvre EVER.

Since then we have really been craving some cheesy, delicious PIZZA! Due to the evolution of pizza, there’s so many yummy recipes out there. From breakfast to barbecue, to apple and goat cheese, there’s a pizza for every occasion and every craving. Add it to your upcoming event’s menu asap!

Bon Appetit,

You may remember back about a year ago Courtney predicted that design on the inside of cakes would be a trend. If you don’t check it out here. Well I am here to tell you her prediction was right, and the cake flavor still reins! Don’t limit yourself to a beautiful cake on the outside, the inside is what counts!

Judging by everyone’s glowing tan, it is officially Summer! My summer checklist :: must be bright, stripes are a plus! Here’s what I am filling my beach bag with this season.

First of all…This is the summer 2012 beach bag. It comes in many colors but you know I love me my black and white stripes.

Michael Kors Legs Shine for beach ready legs

Anything and everything with bright stripes

Espadrilles

A cute blazer to dress up your sun dress

Lots of white hand bags!

Now here are all my summer 2012 must haves for events… brights and stripes still apply.

Chevron!

Bark-wrapped floral centerpieces…and Cotton!

White Bridesmaid dresses!

A fun summery drink!
Root beer floats

Popsicles and champagne…maybe not for your wedding cocktail hour, but definitely for a fun outdoor get-together!

It all began with Coco Chanel and thanks to celebrities like Diane Keaton, Tilda Swinton and Olivia Palermo the androgynous style lives on. I personally love the the trend when done correctly and think brides should join in the fun! A simple structured tuxedo jacket creates a fabulous statement for a fall or winter bride. My favorite way to pull off this look is by pairing a cropped jacket with a super feminine blush gown, like the ones from Vera Wang’s fall collection.

But word to the wise: don’t try this with your groom’s jacket, a big boxy jacket will end up looking sloppy not chic!

Cheers!

My BFF once told me that sparkles just make everyone look happier, and in turn, prettier. And she’s right. I think they make events look and feel happy too. I mean, edible sequins in cocktails? Seriously – that is like instant happiness. Sequined walls make any space more fanciful, sparkly linens instantly up glamour, and sequins on dresses can be oh so whimsical. Let’s not stop there. Cakes, chairs, shoes – everything can benefit from a little glimmer sometimes. I’m especially loving white sequins right now, but really any color is prettier when it sparkles, right? Ladies, your rings don’t have to be the only thing sparkling on your wedding day!

Here are some of my favorite sparkly CME events.

Everyone knows that Easter weekend traditionally marks the first weekend it is ok to wear white. While most people do not adhere to this rule anymore, I am still celebrating the season to wear my favorite color (yes it’s a color). I could wear white everyday if I could only keep it clean! Right now I’m loving this all white look!

Here are my current favorite white pieces and what I want to pair them with.
