A Flame for Elegance

    Between the ages of 14 and 16, young ladies across the country (and even the world) prepare for their celebrations of life. These functions range from Qunceañeras, Sweet 16's, Bat Mitzvah, Debutantes,...the list goes on forever. What do all of these cultural celebrations have in common? At least one young lady (or woman, depending on their cultural background) may want candlelight, floral, water, and faux gems. But why should all of these piece appear separately when they can be formed into one beautiful centerpiece!

   All young women want to have an elegant night, but with their own personality incorporated. These water-filled glasses certainly present themselves well with the clear water pearls, pink flower (any color will do), all topped off with a little white floating candle. This is a simple DIY that can double as favors (if using acrylic instead of water). Surrounding the base of the glasses, place two (2) votive candles to add more lighting to the ensemble. (Don't forget, you can always add glitter or glitz to the base of the larger glasses for more shimmer!). They are very simple, yet elegant and can make any occasion beautiful. They are simple enough for a birthday celebration, yet intricate enough for something a little more formal, such as a debutante or smaller-scaled wedding. I think it's gorgeous, so let's make your next event a night to remember!

Ostrich Feathers, Oh My!

    We've all had our fair share of floral arrangements, candy and cookie bouquets, and even little beta fish with some type of greenery as centerpieces. With The Great Gatsby as the hot ticket and a business with mastermind designers, why not make your next event full of some thing? Ostrich Feathers by Pure Dymonds Events are some of the most sought out center pieces. Known for her unique and spectacular events, Tricia Epps has been making feather a part of her daily routine.

Planning a Child's Celebration

    Have you ever thought that planning a children's party was simple? Well, it's really not. There is so much that goes into making the child happy, as well as their parents. that planning such a simple two hour birthday party can make your head spin. As a planner, whether professional or a family member or friend, take a variety of subjects into consideration. Time, theme, number of guests, location, food, etc...this all can make or break a party. How do you overcome these obstacles? Questions and conversations.

Princess Tea Party. Design & decor by Pure Dymonds

    During the summer it can be difficult to host a birthday party because families go on vacation, involved in other programs, or have other obligations. When planning a summer child's party, reach out to potential guests (classmates, playgroup peers, family members, friends) to get a feel for their plans so you don't stress over anything little. After this, establish a day that would fit the schedule for you and your guests. Remember, if you plan the party for 11am to 2pm, most guests will probably expect refreshments, such as pizza, hot dogs, and burgers to eat since this is a lunch time for many. Also, 4pm and later suggests refreshments because the party will more than likely run into an evening meal. Be prepared to have a general menu to provide guests with in case of any allergies. Always have fresh fruits and veggies available, as well as birthday cake (of course! This cannot be forgotten unless the birthday child has suggested something else).

    Thinking about a theme? Typically, children tend to see new television shows or movies for inspiration, but instead of going this route, take their hobbies into consideration. If a young girl is interested in butterflies or fantasy-like stories, purchasing butterfly and fairy themed supplies, along with glitter favors and a garden-themed cake or dessert, you would have the perfect party. The same would apply for young boys. If the child has an interest in trucks, purchase basic colors (if theme isn't available) and purchase a few items that would compliment the theme without costing you too much money and would be age appropriate.

     If you're really interested in planning the perfect child's birthday celebration, I personally recommend Pure Dymonds Events, a event planning and design company located in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Lead designer and owner Tricia Epps has an amazing team that takes your vision, budget, and all other party aspirations and creates a remarkable show. Check out Pure Dymonds today and plan your child's next party in a fashion that will have all of your guests asking where your party creation came from.
