3. Dazzle with your decor
Remember your scheme! The decor is another
time when consistency is so important. Everything
needs to feel cohesive and everything must serve
a purpose. So often we get excited about the huge
variety of ideas that out decor ends up looking
like a smörgåsbord of random. This will not leave
the impression you’re striving for! Instead choose
linens that fit within your design scheme by print or
texture!

Need to pop one of your colors in there? Try a taper
candle, some florals, or paperie creations. Want to
add a little more to the food table? Make food signs
using your fonts and frame them to stand out.
4. Favors & swag!
Remember that logo you got creative with in step
one? Well plaster that thing on everything you
can! Bachelorette weekend? Put it on some shirts
for your favorite girls! Hosting a workshop? Make
some tote bags for your guests to keep all their
things! These days you can get whatever you want
printed on just about anything! From plastic cups
and napkins to tablecloths and banners..tie it all
together with your scheme choices! It will make a
powerful statement from a design perspective and
it will make your guest of honor feel like royalty!
Another tip? Keep your take home favors themed!
Traveling from miss to mrs theme? Use mini suitcase tins to hold the candy you want to give out.
Nautical theme? Fill bottles and roll a note up inside for a message in a bottle feel! Be creative, your
guests will love it!
5. Thank you!
Wrap everything up with coordinating thank you
notes! Sending your guests their thank you’s with
consistent branding from the party will make it all
come to end in perfect style! Hosting the party for
a mama or bride to be? Wrap up the coordinating
cards for them to use! They will love that they don’t
have to find some and will give you even more
points for literally thinking of EVERYTHING!
Now go get busy branding your next party!
