Design Tips
A-List
D's Pretty Events design tips are a blend of creativity, practicality, and personal style. Here are some of my key insights:

Anticipation-Save-the-Date/Invitation

  • Get the word out. Making a first impression. Get their attention. Sets the tone for your event.

​​

Arrival

  • Visually engage guest. Begin with the entrance to your event. Creates excitement, curiosity and a hint of what’s to come. Set the mood for the entire event experience.

​​

Atmosphere

  • Everything that surrounds your guest. Where you incorporate your personality and style.

    Address your five senses:
         Sight-decorations, lighting, colors
         Smell-foods, flowers
         Taste-appetizers, cocktails, drinks, dinner/buffet
         Touch-fabrics, decorations, favors
         Sound-music, entertainment, conversation

​​

Amusement

  • Heighten guest enjoyment and create a memorable experience. Include a touch of the unexpected.

  • Lighting effects, favors, DJ booth, casino table, and backdrops for performers.

​​

Appetite

  • Entice guest to the food display.

​​

Appreciation                                                                                     

  • Expressed through small gifts called favors and thank you notes.
