Important
Information For Your Party Decorating
1) Decorating The Room
Special pictures of the bride and groom or
even the bride through the years located
around the room adds a special touch.
Having pictures blown up into poster size
is even better. Buying streamer in
the colors of the wedding and placing them
around the room with balloons is a way to
decorate quick and easy while saving your
budget. Don't forget, you can buy
long rolls of plastic sheets at the local
party store to place over tables for large
showers, it's low cost and helps make the
room look much nicer.
2) Taking Notes
Find a designated person to write down which
gift and who it came from so that thank you
cards go to the right person.
3) Decorating Tables
To decorate your tables quick and easy, some
of our customers have liked filling low cost
vases with Hershey's hugs and kisses, others
have created bargain flower arrangements from
the local craft stores. Remember, you
can save money by buying flower supplies at
such places as Wal-Mart. Placing candles
on the tables ads a special romantic touch.
Other ideas have been bowls of M&Ms and rose
petals, we recommend buying the fake petals
from local craft stores as they won't wilt.
4) Buying Your Supplies
Purchase all party supplies 4 weeks in
advance. The average time for delivery
is 2 weeks, this way you can watch the service
to make sure your packages will arrive on
time. A week ahead of the party, if your
items have not arrived, contact the company
you purchased from and have them send it right
away.
5) Feeding Your Guests
Finger foods are easy to come by and make
better yummies than full dishes. Such
finger foods we like to use are vegies and
dip, little smokies in BBQ sauce, lemon bars,
brownies, chips, cookies and of course the
cake.
6) Who Will Host
Hosting a party can be done by anyone who
knows the bride but is usually done by a
sister or friend but in this day and age,
anyone who knows the bride and/or groom can
throw the shower.
7) What Guests To Invite
Ask the bride to be who she would like to come
to the party, make sure you don't invite
someone she isn't getting along with.
You also want to make sure that all her
co-workers or friends you don't know get
invited as well.
8) Decorating On Low Budget
Low Budget - When on a low budget for
decorations, here are some helpful tips to get
you through... Streamers are always
recommended. You can get a large roll
from .58cents to $1 at your local party
stores. They come in all colors so twist
blues, pinks and whites together and go from
corner to corner. They fill the room at
such a low cost. Also, solid color
plates are usually much cheaper, just buy the
plates and have napkins on hand and some dixie
type cups to help save money. Solid
color balloons on the wall make great added
color and don't forget to get your local
friend or family artist to draw some pictures
for the wall like bells and flowers.
9) Favors
Favors are always welcomed by your guests, but
many can be costly. We have found that
most guests prefer anything that is edible.
At our favor store

Belgian chocolates as well as custom
invitations. We have low prices and have
just discounted all of them in 2006, so saving
on your budget is what we want to help you do.
