Tips for a Vintage Wedding
• Before you begin, pick an era and then design the wedding accordingly
• Vintage is a concept of old mixed with new – so don’t feel you need to buy an array of new things that “look old.”
• Have a look at 2nd hand or charity shops for old pieces or accessories that you can use. Be it retro furniture or art deco-inspired wall paper – you will find some bargains.
• Pay attention to detail - like a string of pearl on an old book
• Remember – if you decide on a theme – everything must fit into the theme. From music to the décor!

2011 Wedding trends
"This dark poetry palettes with deep black, slate gray, inky blue and deep purple completed by flaming garnet, blushing pink and hallucinogenic green. Flashes of copper and gold. Sumptuous materials are deteriorated to evoke the wear of time. Accent on natural mixing 'patched' effect. Some ultra feminine materials: dobby silks, quivering acetate etc. New parade jackets, Rock spirit, Patchwork grunge.
Nocturnal, muffled colors from night blue, cold brown and Cyprus green all the way to grayed parma and intenser touch of oxblood. Base colour remain in the somber register of deep blue, almost black. Emphasis on sophisticated, warm, light, soft-touch fabris like wool and cashmere blends or brushed and sanded suitings. Matt or slightly shiny looks for synthetics. Knits are thin and generous. Wool shawl-collared, dark and strange prints, product focus on bloomer and punk style jacket. " French Trend Agency - NellyRodi.

Kiddies Party Planning Course

.JPG)
Did you ever dreamed of being a fairy princess, a pirate, a fireman or even just dreamed about never never land…. But now you are and adult and you have responsibilities and there is no place in life for fairytales… Wrong!!
There are a place where fairytales can come alive and even bring some money to you. You can start your own children’s partea company. Let me just tell you before you even start thinking about it…. It is not for the faint of heart! You have to be full of patients and LUVVVV… for other peoples children! The second biggest thing is that you can not stand the whole time and talk to the kids… they don’t just wants to see your nostrils the whole time – get down, get to their level and connect with the kiddies where they are!
This is the type of company a mom with small kids can think off. You’ve got an istant customer base with all the friends of you kids and all the kids in the school where your child attends. As a Kids Party Business owner you'll experience the joy of a business that puts you in charge. You'll be able to choose your own hours and schedule your work around your family first.
Kiddies parteas have become big business. With the rise in single parent and two working parent homes, this means that many parents don’t have the time to plan and coordinate these parteas themselves. Specializing in pulling of fabulous children’s parteas may be the perfect home business for an energetic, creative and organized person. You also need to have a high tolerance for the constant activity and noise levels present at any and every children’s party in the history of the world.
While working with kids may seem like an easy gig, young children make for a very tough audience. If they don’t like something, they get up and walk away, or yell and throw things. Your job at a party is to hold the attention of a group of people for whom a short attention span is the norm. It would be imperitive that you as a children’s partea planner must be able to manage stress and still opereate in a professional manner while lots of children is screaming, crying, and running around all at once. With that you would still need to give attention to the little one that is to shy to talk to even one of his little friends at the party.
That said - this will still be the best time you'll ever have "working" The kids will love you and will be excited to see you. You'll get hugs, kisses, and kids saying "It's the best party they ever had." Seeing the smiles on those kids' faces is the best feeling in the world and that makes you want to go to work the next morning again. And best of all, you'll have customers coming to you. Parents love telling their friends about our fun kids party events so there's always business waiting for you. Please remember - while it is the children you are entertaining, it is the parents who do the hiring, so do involve them in the planning etc and give all the glory to them on the party. They like to be the centre of attention on such occasions.
Besides the right attitude, anyone who wants to run a children's party planning business will have to be able to predict what the birthday kid's dream birthday would be by discussing it with the parents.
If you've gotten to the stage of seriously considering starting a children's party planning business, you probably know this already, but every kid has different taste.
Some kids hate clowns with a passion and are bored to tears by magicians, some girls love Ninja Turtles and Batman and there are boys who love kittens. Make sure you talk in depth with the parents about the child's interests when selecting a theme, games and entertainment.
