Please join us as we dig into our last design topic in the décor series, we are talking lighting! Lighting can be a dramatic way to set the mood for your event, but getting there can have lots of unexpected moments. We are going to help give you a basic understanding of what to expect with lighting. What role it can play in décor, what the cost can be, and what really goes in to achieving the looks that you see in so many pictures.

Please join us as we discuss how to use décor elements to truly personalize your wedding. From a custom designed logo, to serving grandma's coconut cream pie at your dessert bar, it's all about the personal touches. We will discuss the range of possibilities, share stories of what we have seen, talk about some of the resources available to you, and hopefully inspire you to really make your day about you! 

New York City Weddings

Design and Décor continue to take center stage this week. We are excited to have returning guest Saukok Tiampo of 57 Grand on to tell us about her latest (and very useful) endeavor, Revel. Revel is a wedding design blog geared towards brides with modern sensibilities. The best part is that in the name of ease and efficiency (there's nothing that C&G loves more) almost everything you see on the blog can be purchased through the blog, talk about EASY! On a broader scale we will explore the role of blogs, websites, and social networking in the planning and design process. We will help you navigate what is useful, and what to avoid as you traverse the wide world of the world wide web.

Please join C&G for a continuation of the Décor and Design series. This week they will be joined by one of the rising stars in the floral world, Blush Designs. Yena Jung and Jeeyun Lee of Blush will talk to us about what's like to be a relatively "new" florist in the NYC market. They will share with us their perspective on what has helped with their very fast rise. And of course we will talk design, what's new, what's hot, and most importantly what works!
