Love Is In The Details

Oprah has been quoted as saying "love is in the details", and I certainly agree. Wedding/Event Planning is all about details. Of course there are the details of coordinating logistics, programming, timelines, etc., but there are also the details of incorporating theme and style elements that make you say "why didn't I think of that?" I'm talking about the "WOW Factor", you know, the "little things" that people will be talking about long after the wedding or event is over. This type of detailing requires just a little imagination, a smidge of creativity, and the ability to "think outside of the box". Again, it's all about the little things, for example, consider Personalized Gift Wrap, which I found on NameMaker.com. Imagine walking into a birthday party and finding a very simple centerpiece consisting of varying sized boxes stacked in the center of the table, wrapped in pretty personalized paper with the guest of honor's name on it, and adorned with pretty ribbon and cute embellishments. Something so simple, yet the impact would be memorable.



Or imagine having your gift to the honoree standout from all the rest by wrapping it in Personalized Gift Wrap from you! How cute is that?

The idea here is to make a statement. It doesn't have to be bold and over the top, but it should be creative and well thought out. You know what they say…it's not the gift but the thought that counts!
