When do you hire an Event or Wedding planner, consultant & coordinator?

Jennifer Lane A Memory Lane Event

We know that many people and couples would like to be completely involved in their events & weddings.  So many people are confused as to what an Event or Wedding planner, consultant & coordinator does.  They think that we take control of their event or wedding and it's no longer theirs. 

This is simply not true, at least when you work with a professional that keeps theirs clients wants, desire and goals in mind.  When you work with a professional, like A Memory Lane Event & Wedding,we have meetings where we discover what you as the client wants. You as the client make all of the decisions and we do the leg work and attend to details so you can have fun & enjoy the planning time. The best professionals book up quickly, hire a professional planner, consultant & coordinator sooner, rather then later.

So for what types of events do people hire a planner, consultant & coordinator?

1. Weddings, all types, sizes & all locations .  Why spend 1000 hours trying to plan the most amazing wedding of the year, when you can hire a professional who already has the pull and network team around them to get to the best of the best for the most bang for your buck?
2. Sweet 16's & Quincearna's.  Another opportunity to create the event of the year while giving your child the chance to be the envy of the socialite scene
3.  Kids Parties for ages 10-18 .  Why? You want your kids to the envy of the neighborhood and their social network.  You also want the memory album to be chocked full of amazing  themes and memories that only a professional can pull off with out you having to do all the manpower hours to create the magical special occasion.  They'll only have that birthday once in their life.  You can't recreate it.
4. Foundation Functions, Fundraisers & Galas .  You're going to the function for a couple reasons.  To give to a great cause, yes of course, but its also to be seen.  If your planning & decor is lacking it will be noticed. 
5. Anniversary Parties.  Your parents and your spouse and of course your self are worth the "extra mile" to ensure that your event is "The one of the Year" that leaves everyone talking about the dazzling memory and love that surrounded the day.  Don't take a chance by trying to pull this off as a DIY event.
6. Engagement Parties .   This is your chance to show off the love of your life to all of the other important people in your life. Announcing your love and the excitement and happiness that you have decided to spend the rest of your life together. You would like them to share in the experience with you. It's the prelude to your wedding day.  Don't let it fall short, hire a professional, like A Memory Lane Event to assist you with the dazzling details, time & money savings while showcasing your love.
7. Award ceremonies .  Those receiving the awards worked hard to get to achieve them and you are proud of them.  But you also want everyone else to know that they've done an amazing job.  Did you know that by hiring a professional, you get more buying power and can show the recipients how much their achievements really mean.
8. Extravagant Theme Parties & Weddings that will become the Event or Wedding of the year that everyone wishes they could be invited to. Those parties, special occasions & weddings where you want to all out and do something that has never been seen before or is totally exclusive and  Media is beating down the door to come and cover. You simply can not do these by your self.  You must have the help and guidance of a professional with a team to handle all of the details.  Call A Memory Lane Event & Wedding.  Over the Top with a hint of secretive planning is our specialty.

Thoughts on Color Schemes for Your Wedding

From friends, family and especially from your wedding planner, one of the first questions you have to answer is “What is your color scheme?” Before you answer with the default colors of the season or those your mother has hinted at for the past few months, take a moment and give this decision some real thought.

Teal is an "it" color this year

Color is actually an extenuation of you and your personality. This decision of color and hue will affect almost everything involved in your special day. Invitations, flowers for the ceremony and reception, bridesmaids’ dresses, groomsmen’s’ tuxes, table clothes and favors, it all waits on this decision. Color helps create the mood, effects energy and definitely makes an impression. Just think about all the colors that exist in life. What colors will reflect the splash of personality that is unique to your relationship? Even if you decided to opt for the safe color of white or shades of pink, using a splash of color as an accent will really set your event apart.

What is the general rule of thumb regarding color? While color is a great accent, you don’t overdo it. For elegant style, use no more than three to four hues.

Options by the Season:

Fall – The earth shades of brown, green, orange, referred to as Harvest color are clichéd. To avoid looking to much in the Halloween mode, consider Taupe or Burgundy with copper or a hint of lavender

Spring - Is usually owned by pastels, (pink, blue, Gray/Silver) but consider bumping it up with a splash of plum or coral

Summer – Go for bold colors, which are definitely in. Rich yellow, bold reds or bright blues often dominate. You might want to think about using coral, salmon and a deep burnt orange as your color palate. It is flattering for almost every skin tone and is a stunning combination.

Winter – While all white is outstanding, consider accenting with pewter, silver, copper, or bronze for depth and warmth.

One last thought regarding color scheme, mixing different tones (light, medium, dark) of the same color creates a striking look.

Denver Audubon Society Birds Lullaby event

A Memory Lane Event will be working with the Audubon Society on a special evening at Chatfield, Saturday, September 11th. The Audubon Society goals are to enhance birds, other wildlife and their habitats. The Gulf Oil Spill has created a major challenge and a strain on the national Society resources. Here is some recent information on their response from their website.


“Audubon Gulf Oil Response”

“With a century-long legacy of conservation in the Gulf region, the Audubon Society was quick to respond to the crisis. Our Louisiana Coastal Restoration and Mississippi River Initiative staff were first on the scene, to assess the impacts and help guide and coordinate the emergency response. Shortly thereafter Audubon’s Oil Spill Volunteer Response Center opened its doors in Moss Point, Mississippi. The facility is a hub for a range of critical response activities, from assisting bird rehabilitation specialists to monitoring the spill’s impacts, to making nets, cages and other materials essential to bird rescue. Many are helping to assess the impacts of the spill on birds through the Coastal Bird Survey – a new program that will help guide and inform long term recovery efforts. Thanks to the our grassroots network of concerned Americans and the thousands of concerned people who contacted Audubon to volunteer, we are making a difference now – and will be able to continue to do so long into the future.”

“Locally, the Audubon Center site provides critical habitat for an abundance of plants and wildlife. Set alongside the South Platte River - an important wildlife corridor - the site offers visitors the chance to explore forests, shrublands, grasslands, ponds and wetland ecosystems. On a hike at the Audubon Center, you may chance upon mule deer grazing, prickly pear blooms drying in the sun, red-winged blackbirds singing loudly to defend territories or raccoon tracks left in the mud. Designated as an Important Bird Area by the National Audubon Society, the park boasts a list of 345 bird species that spend part of their year at Chatfield. More than 150 types of butterflies inhabit the site, along with a wide variety of plants and other wildlife.” Go to http://www.denveraudubon.com/ to view the website and learn more about their efforts.
