Ideas We Love - Bridesmaids Dresses


Welcome to
Ideas We Love
Our idea is to pick the PERFECT
Bridesmaid Dresses!

We have all seen "unique" bridesmaid dresses in 
movies like 27 Dresses, on TV and even in Broadway
musicals such as, "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change."


Picking your Bridesmaids' Dresses can seem life a difficult
task, but following a few simple guidelines can make the
experience simple, easy and even FUN!

1. Color and Theme
It is more than likely that your Bridesmaids will have
unique body types, dress sizes, and various opinions.
Color is a great place to start to give your girls some
much needed direction. Many bries have their girls dress in
the wedding's signature color(s). A really fun idea
is to have your maid or matron of honor highlighted 
by wearing a brighter shade of the color you pick
or accent them wit ha sash of a different color.



2. Fabric and Length
It is important to find fabrics that go together well. It
is traditional that bridesmaids wear the same style, color,
length and fabric, but more and more weddings are
becoming unique and personalized. Play around with
fabrics to see which ones you like together. Another cool
idea is to have your matron or maid of honor wear a dress
of a different length to make her stand out!



3. Style and Accessories
Another great idea is to have the same color or color scheme,
the same or similar fabrics and different styles of dresses.
There are endless options of styles for your ladies. For
example, there is this really amazing dress available which
can be converted into infinite styles. Check it out at:
http://www.henkaa.com/shop/convertible-dresses.html.
If you still want a more traditional style of dress, you
can play up your bridesmaids' accessories by doing
a pop of color in their shoes, jewelry or bags. Or throw 
a cool twist like cowboy boots!



4. Budget and Re-use
When looking for these gowns, keep in mind what you
would want as a bridesmaid--a dress you can wear again
(whether it be a formal or casual event) and the amount
of money you would spend. Keep in mind, your best friends'
budgets and if YOU think they could wear it again. Re-use 
isn't required when shopping for a dress, but who doesn't
love to reinvent an outfit?

Our idea is to offer a plethora of small
bites on your wedding day!

Who said catering can't be simple, yet elegant?
Offering your wedding guests small appetizers
that show the bride and groom's favorite foods
can be unique and still leave guests with full bellies!

Represent the groom with some sliders to accompany
a great beer being served. Brides love shrimp cocktail
with bloody marys! Check out some of these great,
appetizing, appetizer catering ideas!

Sweet Praises

We are so honored to have received new 
reviews from a past client of 
Kiersten Lief, Lead Coordinator!

Completely Stress Free Wedding for Bride and Groom  
 "I worked with Kiersten at Confetti Events, and she was AMAZING. She had one assistant that stayed with me the morning of the wedding to help get ready, and stayed with me even after the ceremony to carry my dress while being photographed. There was a slight mix-up with the cake delivery, and she made sure I received the right cake before our cocktail hour. Every last detail was taken care of by Kiersten to create a completely stress free wedding for my new husband and myself, as well as all of our guests. She really helped create our perfect day."

Ideas We Love - Décor

Welcome to
Ideas We Love
Our idea is to Tie the "Naut" this Summer!

This summer has nautical written all over it. Sea inspired 
décor complements this year's hottest season.

Here are a few hints:
- The classic nautical stripe is key for any seaside wedding
- White and navy are two timeless shades that always go hand in hand 
- Add starfish placecards, turquoise flatware and gold accents 
to express a crisp and clean feel that’s forever memorable
- Flowly linens on land or sea help emphasize an oceanic vibe 

Make your wedding totally gorgeous and unique 
by playing up this summer theme. 

Keep it simple or make it elaborate, from
engagement to reception; 
Tie the knot wherever your heart desires!

Ideas We Love - Cake

Welcome to
Ideas We Love
Our idea is to Have your Cake and Eat it too!


Wedding cakes can be so much more versatile nowadays; 
rather than the traditional white, three-tiered cake
whose most interesting component was the 
bland and boring bride-and-groom topper, your options
today are nearly limitless. 

Shows like Cake Boss and sites like Pinterest have 
transformed these lackluster traditions into vibrant and creative 
edible masterpieces. Here at Confetti Events, we want you to 
have your cake and eat it too. Make your special day that 
much more memorable with a cake that appeals to the eye 
and most certainly your taste buds.  

Here are some of our favorite cakes:

Ideas We Love - Entertainment


Welcome to
Ideas We Love
Our idea is regarding Entertainment!

BAND vs. DJ

That is the question!

When considering if you want a band or a DJ
at your wedding, you should evaluate a few points: 

(1) With a DJ, you have a larger variety of songs and 
genres. You can play music at a more convenient
pace when and where you want. 



(2) With a band, you get the "WOW" factor.

(3) Make sure whoever is play for you not only 
have live performance experience, 
but also wedding experience!

(4) If you choose a DJ, let them do their job.
Give them a few broad directions as to what music
you would rather not hear, but not too much!


Happy Planning,
xoxo- Confetti Girls
