Event Lighting...
The lighting of an event can change the mood dramatically. One of the “staples” of my events has been the use of lighting. I believe that uplighting is KEY. When the budgets are bigger I love pin spotting, uplighting, GOBO’s and the lists go on and on and on.... I think lighting is a big area that gets overlooked when couples try and do a lot of elements themselves. I think a lot of people just think lighting “must be expensive” I know I thought that before I did research into it. Colored uplighting can transform a space from blah to wow and is a great way to splash some color on the walls or poles. Some great local resources for lighting are Apres Party Rental and Instant Request DJ Service (They now offer lighting packages for all sizes of weddings).
So whether you want dramatic coloring or just soft ambiance, lighting is key to event design!

Idea I love
I stumbled upon this great website the other day and I Love these totes. Maptote is a website that creates customized totes with over 40 popular destinations sketched on the. What a great idea for your out of town bags, your bridesmaids and even as a summer beach bag! I know I will be buying one for myself very soon. They have even expanded recently into baby onesies and very cute mapnotes. Mapnotes can be used for a million really fun ways throughout your wedding.. Save the Dates, Tags for Out of Town Bags, Thank You’s, Favors, and on and on.....
Be proud of the area you are getting married and really create a theme around it!!!

Happy Anniversary...Anna and Mark
I am sure that Anna and Mark have had a much more relaxing summer this year!! Much of last year was spent renovating a barn and many areas of a local farm so they could hold their WONDERFUL wedding celebration. The memories will forever be remembered and their efforts were even mentioned in the latest Minnesota Bride article!!
Thank you to Federer Photography for the wonderful Images!

Its is so busy, but so rewarding!! Last October I received an email from Alli explaining her wedding. When I spoke on the phone with her I quickly related with her and loved her “Love Story”.....
