SIMPLY PIN: Are you at a Hipster wedding??

As an owner of a wedding planning business I have realized I play so many roles. I am in no way just a wedding planner. Although yes, that is the bulk of the work... it is not what I spend everyday doing. This week I have found myself doing a whole plethora of random things. Changing an old mirror into a chalkboard for a seating chart at a wedding, doing research on event design (i.e. pinning lots + lots on Pinterest--follow me here!), cutting out lots and lots of geometric shapes for a styled shoot coming up, picking out furniture for same styled shoot from a designer furniture store, taking tours of the neatest venues you have ever seen, etc. etc. So it's so much more than calling a caterer and putting together contracts. But at the end of the day I think one of the funnest part of my job is the event design aspect. I love coming up with new and creative ways to style a wedding. And Pinterest is probably one of my favorite tools. So here is what I've been pinning this week... 

Oh How Pinteresting Wednesday

SIMPLY PIN: Champagne Bars & Whiskey

Today's Oh How Pinteresting link-up is all about champagne bars & whiskey. I love the idea of using your bar to add some personality to your wedding. I think there are a lot of fun ways to incorporate the bar into your wedding decor, design, theme, etc. If you and your fiance's favorite alcohol is vodka, then why not have a fun vodka mixing station where guests can make their own drinks? Or if you prefer champagne, have a champagne bar with fresh fruit they can add to their drink? There are so many ways you can get creative with your bar and make it part of the design of your event. Signature drinks are a really cute way to personalize your event as well. I absolutely love the idea of having a "His" and "Hers" drink too! So many options for customizing your bar at your wedding... what are your favorite ideas!?
