Nicole & Amber 1st Birthday – shot glass, Coin or Rosary?

iam having a cocatail party in march for my 30th?

and i want to know what drinks should have?
iam having favors/soviners its a shot glass with my picture on it and my name and date. good idea. and what other ideas should i have where having appetizer and people will probuly dress up. should it be just all girls or guys also? whats your other ideas that iam leaving out or forgetting thanks and where doing karoke etc

A classic cocktail party has cocktails and appetizers, it is a slightly casual, classy affair. People having a cocktail and chatting with each other, and in the background some Jazz or lounge… …don’t go too crazy with your cocktail offerings, pick a signature cocktail that is your favourite (after-all, it’s YOUR party), and then have one to three additional options, and some non-alcoholic options, like sparkling Apple cider or bubbly mineral water.

I don’t know about the shot glasses with your picture – seems a little over-board – I’d do something that says “you’re my friend, let’s remember this night…” It will be cheaper, too. Perhaps have a nice invitation printed up, buy some of those sticker you glue photos into albums with, and ask everyone to please bring their invitation – using a polaroid, and after a cocktail or two, take a fun picture with each one of your guests and put it in the invitation for the guest to take home with the tabs, it’s more personal and doesn’t make you seem like a casino giving out promos… …also try to keep it friendly and airy – set the tone with placing appetizers all over, but the bar in one place, and don’t turn it into a boo-hoo kegger. That’s my suggestion.

Select perfect wedding favours for your guests

Select favours that uniquely reflect your personal sense of style and will create a lasting impression with your guests. Gifts that your guests can actually use are always appreciated. Some couples provide cultural favours that reflect their heritage while others choose gifts that will bring a smile and highlight their sense of fun. wedding favours are small gifts given as a token of appreciation or gratitude to the guests from the bride and the groom during a wedding ceremony or a wedding reception. The tradition of distributing wedding favours is a very old one.

today, gifts to guests are commonly known as wedding favours and are shared in cultures worldwide. Wedding favours have become a part of wedding reception planning, especially in the United States and Canada. Wedding favours are diverse and usually complement the theme or season of the event. Classic favours can range from the classic sugared almonds or individual chocolates to candles and scented soaps. Modern gift trends include: CDs with the favorite music of the bride and groom, shot glasses filled with colored candy or silver picture frames with a photo of the couple. Gifts may also be personalized with the couple’s names, initials or wedding date.

Disposable camera favours can be personalized with the name of the happy couple and their wedding date. They are also available in a variety of colors and patterns which can match the color scheme of your wedding.

There are many types of wedding favours like: beach wedding favours, garden wedding favours, daisy wedding favours and Asian wedding favours. Some favor ideas include personalized pens, trinket boxes, goblets, candles, vases, and personalized wedding cameras also. One item that’s big this year and has that sense of fun is Chinese take-out boxes. Those inexpensive cardboard boxes with a wire handle that contain your take-out or extra food from restaurants. The range of sizes and colors makes them ideal for containing a wide variety of treasures. Many boxes get decorated with fun Japanese symbols, bows, ribbon, chopsticks, tropical drink umbrellas, and photos.

If you budget is tight, you might want to consider giving one favor per couple. This will decrease the number needed and leave you more money for other things. If you go with the one per couple idea, it is best to place the favor between the couple’s seats and to have a card with both names on it so they know it is to be shared. It is also a good idea to have favours that have a ‘couple’ theme such as a photo frame with room for two photos. Remember, though, that children, young adults and those without a date for the reception will each receive individual favours, so keep that in mind when choosing what to offer.

Favours can also be put directly in the cars of your guests. The valet can do this for you. Imaging the surprise on your guests’ faces when they return to their cars! Just make sure there are enough in each car for all of the passengers.

The preferred fabrics by the designer were cotton, georgette, net, silk, mull and linen. The collection was unique but wearable in terms of design and pattern.

The men collection was very stylish and appealing in nature. Men models walked the ramp with elaborate embroidered batik styled shirts paired with stylish trousers completed with patch pockets and shiny zippers. Fun element of, feminity to male garments was provided by showcasing sophisticated floral printed baggy tops paired with tight fitting pants and capris. The choice of colors was dull jade, beige, blue, brown, saffron and white. Complicated embroidery, smocking, appliqué work and shadow work were part and parcel of his creative designing. The fun element was when the famous model turned actor John Abraham walked the ramp with white linen suit.

Sanjay Malhotra

Sanjay Malhotra named his spring/summer 2007 collection ‘Dejavu’. The key phrase which inspired him for this collection was Life through my rose colored glasses. He instead of sticking only to free flowing usual feminine fabrics, even experimented with fabrics like fur, leather, voiles, denim, suede and laces which were highly appealing to today‘s power packed independent women. The beautiful mix-n-match of these fabrics in sober as well as striking colors presented a collection that was bold enough yet stylish and wearable. Few of the many outfits displayed by him were- ivory colored mirror jacket with chiffon sleeves, colorful corset skirt accompanied with net petticoat, tunic with fur edge, etc. His collection was for the woman who likes to seek attention of the crowd and be different.

The free flowing pleated and layered outfits depicted the south African culture and fashion essence through them.

James Ferriera

James Ferriera made his debut at Lakme Fashion Week. He named his collection ‘Bombay Tokyo’. His collections were inspired by Maharashtra’s rich textile heritage.

The collections were divided into seven segments which were even named. The sari, an ode to devnagari, the hardy traditional towel, black magic, the sholapur story, warli and diwali were the seven names given to the segments.

Traditional warli paintings and paithani motifs were done on the clothes. Very uniquely he transformed the traditional forms of maharashtrian clothing into contemporary designs, like nine yard saris were intelligently converted into tunics. Marigold and leaf motifs were used on black shirts with cowl necks.

To describe in a nutshell his collection used ethnic fabrics and designs on garments with style and attitude. The outfit presented during finale had black georgette garments with glittering Paithani embroidery designs on them.

Conclusion

This event is marked by presence of celebrities and traders all across the globe. Also it provides a platform for the budding designers to show their talent and establish themselves into the high profile fashion industry, for the already established designers to show their collection and maintain their popularity level. The above mentioned review is for few of the many prominent and talented designers. The nutshell description of the designers suggests that this celebration of fashion and style is a sure shot success for India’s designers and promote the export business too. The very presence of film stars on the ramp of their favorite designers and in the audience is the crowd puller factor of this celebration. Lakme Fashion week is extensively covered by media and promoted also.

What is your opinion on wedding favors?

I’m really struggling with the concept of wedding favors. I’ve been to weddings where the couple did something as eleborate as give everyone a bottle of wine personalized. I’ve also received trinkets that I threw away, gave away or left behind because I didn’t need them. After all, I really don’t need/want photo frames with my co-worker, friend or cousions intitials or shot glasses with their wedding date on it. I’ve also seen favors as simple as a few of those plastic swans stuffed with mints (loved playing with those as a child) or a few candies or mints scattered around the centerpeice or in a pretty jar. Personally, I would rather have the couple save their money for their home than spend sometimes hundreds or even over over a thousand dollars on favors. Or use it to go back to college or put it to a college fund for their future children. What do you think? How important are favors to you?

As a guest, not important at all! I wouldnt miss it one bit. I always keep the program and invitation of the wedding, I think thats the best “keepsake”. I dont like trinkets.
But if favors must be given, I prefer edibles or matches — I do use matches for lighting candles.
When we got married our favors were about $20 per person. Looking back, totally unnecessary.
