A Gambling Man

So Cool Events has hit another winner!

Their new light up casino tables are fantastic.  We love the idea of using them at a birthday celebration, rehearsal dinner, or wedding after party.

It can be done up like Vegas, a grand cruise liner casino, or let it blend in with the other elements of your celebration.

Every Bride Should Know #2

Every Bride Should Know

1. Remember to bring scissors to the bridal suite. There will be tags, ribbons, and trims to cut.

2. Unwrap your gown and spread out the train once it arrives in the bridal suite. It will keep everything from being wrinkled and make for great pictures. Think about adding a pretty hanger - the one the dress is on from the salon is probably plastic.

3. Ask your wedding location about the fire codes. Most locations require that candles be enclosed and will not all taper or pillar candles until the flame is contained.

Every Bride Should Know #1

Every Bride Should Know:

1. Start the seating assignments early. The earlier they're complete the less stressful they become. You can always re-arrange if people cancel.

2. Have double stick tape, safety pins, and fashion tape in your makeup bag on wedding day. They'll be life savers for you and your Maids.

3. Don't overlook table numbers. If they are unattractive they will stick out on your beautiful tables.
