Venue Spotlight: Blue Rock Estate

2 Comments

“A fabulous venue with the perfect mix of Texas Hill Country flair and mid-century architectural design” Photographer, Jesse with Healy Jesse Photography has said of Blue Rock Estate.

Last Sunday was Blue Rock Estate’s Grand Opening and what a fantastic event it was!  The second I was greeted by owner, Crissalane Discher of Disch Events, I had already fallen in love and there was no going back!  Blue Rock Estate is just spectacular.  From the bridal suite, to the outdoor ceremony area, to the patio looking over the pool!  That’s right…I said pool!!

As we were sipping mimosas enjoying the beautiful weather last Sunday, it took absolutely everything not to cannonball into the pool!  Crissalane and her crew have done a magnificent job with Blue Rock Estate!  We wish you the best of luck and we CANNOT wait to coordinate an event out there with ya’ll!

Mint Color Inspiration

1 Comment

Who’s ready for a Mojito?  Maybe a Mint Julep?  What about using the color mint as an accent or choice for your upcoming event?  And just think, you can add in a signature drink to tie in.

Mint is a great color to mix with other bold, bright, or subtle colors to create a great late spring/summer look.  Of course dessert comes to mind and who doesn’t love the combination of chocolate and mint?  How about with some summer fruit, or as a garnish to a grooms cake?

Looking for more inspiration, give us a shout to help design your next event.

Dessert Centerpieces

Everyone loves Dessert!  I know we do around here.  Weddings and Events are no exception to the dessert love.  There are many options for displaying and presenting and one of our favorites is having the desert become the centerpiece.  If you are having a family style meal, then it blends right in with the rest of the meal.

Having trouble thinking of something other than wedding cake?  Do you have so many different desserts that you love?  Why not share all those favorites with your guest.  The different options could also signify different moments in your lives coming to the day of your event.  Remember what you had on a first date?

Couldn’t help but look around and find some of our favorites.  Is this something that you would love doing at your wedding?  We love helping create a design with our clients!

Citrus Lime Color Inspiration

Keeping with just having seen green for St. Patrick’s Day recently, why not talk about Lime Green!  Lime green accents around your big day make for stunning centerpieces and bouquets.  They also can make a great bridesmaid dress color, either all in Lime Green, or a mix of colors.  Some great accents to go along:  Citrus Orange, Bright Red, Mint, Purple, Citrus Yellow, and dare we say Hot Pink…

Here’s to a great Spring Monday!  We are so happy spring is here, colors can be so vibrant this time of year!  What lime green is your favorite?

Antique Getaway Cars

There comes a point and time that you and yours are ready to go!  You may be jetting off on your honeymoon, ready to get out of your attire and relax, or head to the after-party!  Either way, how are you leaving the event?  Are you at a historic location, a swanky hotel in downtown, or a winery you and yours love?  Each location lends itself to a great getaway car.  And what better way to create that final design statement at your wedding than by the car that you and yours leave in!

Who wants to have a friend and his Honda Civic drive you both off after a wonderful and romantic night?  We won’t deny that limos are always going to be a classic and elegant way to roam around town the night of your wedding, but what if…

Is your location historic? Find the year it was built and find a car to match the era (Rolls Royce anyone?).

Maybe a distant family member had a car back in the day that is now one of the great classics, what a better way to honor or remember them.

For added bonus, use the car all night from arriving at the ceremony to leaving that night.

And for one more touch, did you consider Trolley’s for moving guest around town?

Here are a couple of favorites here in the Austin area for rentals and needs at your next event!  Better yet, we can take care of arranging all your needs.  Give us a shout!  How are you leaving your next event?
