Fake!

9/13/2014

No...that's not the word I was looking for, ARTIFICIAL ...there you go.
How can you design elaborate flower stories with blooms that are out of season?
Silks and other artificials, that's how!
This also helps with sensitive sniffers. I have family members who are fragrance intolerant. They shy away from events, where there would most likely be an abundance of flowers or heavy scents just because of their allergies. If you have that same issue, or have guests who suffer from allergies, consider artificial flowers or even just LED candles and other decor
elements to compliment your design.
The professionals at Hawaii Island Events are waiting to liven up your event with Silks!

Go Betweens

Ideally you would have all the time in the world to personally meet and collaborate with each vendor. But since we all live in the real world,
we NEED the "go betweens".
Design requires a meeting of the minds.
The island is rich with planning talent,
who will work with us to create a breathtaking display for you to enjoy.

Ehm....princess?

While planning a Garden Party for Princesses, this very special request from my 7 year old sweetness, I asked "where do I draw the line"? I wanted her to have every little detail just so but didn't have the time or energy to devote to one more event that week. How I did it and saved my sanity...

Chose a place really close to home
Made sure this place already had tables and chairs
Ordered trays of food from the local BBQ joint (and had someone pick it up)
Used silk peonies and other pretties for the centerpieces instead of natural ones which require more care and time limits, not to mention wasn't in season
Set one special table for the Princess and her guests of honor and the rest were simple but coordinating
Made the mother of all Pinatas with all the girly goodies and glitter they could want and more
Supplied activities for the rest of the guests, like over sized bowling and a white chocolate fountain
Produced a photo booth with all the fluff and fun for silly faces
Lastly, I had help from the most wonderful friends and family in the world

Thankfully I was able to join in the fun and smiled the whole day.
