Our theme for this year was Woodland Garden and we had our top Perfect Ten Events vendors there offering a sample of just a few of the wonderful things we can do to make your event over the top at a reasonable cost.

Our chef provided event guests with tantalizing tastes of some of our most popular items including passed Miniature Maryland Crabcakes and Spanikopita, carved Sirloin of Beef, Light Lemon Chicken, Tuscan Grilled Vegetable Medley,  Roasted Baby Red  Potatoes, and Parmesan Risotto.

Allison & Andre's Wedding Part 1

Our daughter Allison, and her husband were married last June and what an adventure planning our own daughter's wedding!  Even after being a part of hundreds and hundreds of weddings and events being on the other side has given us even more insight and wisdom to help our brides.


 One of the things I had wanted to do from the start was create some unique personalized items.  Their colors were purple and lime green so of course that was the start when searching for the perfect products.  The place cards were made with some glittery purple cardstock giving them just the right amount of bling factor.






We found the already painted white tree at http://www.save-on-crafts.com  which is an awesome website for any do it yourself decorators.  They carry all kinds of lighting and other decorations and additons to make your event unique.  You can do gorgeous things with these trees which also come in a natural color.  Allison didn't want anything too extravagant so we simply added a monogram and some crystals found at A.C. Moore.  It was the perfect accent for the place card table and after that we moved it to the gift table.

Here are some other ideas for using these trees:






This wishing card tree is a very cool idea.  Guests fill out the Wishes for the Bridal Couple cards and tie them to the tree as they arrive.  Later they can be put in a book to read and remember your guests by. (As well as all the great wisdom!)

The Prime Choice will be happy to help you create the look you want and if you want to do these yourself we can give you some websites for everything you need.  Just let us know!
