Wedding Trends 2014 by Steve F: Vintage Weddings

11/19/2013

Vintage weddings will still be going strong in 2014. Theres something that seems special and so romantic about incorporating antiques and old world family customs to a wedding. Also remembering loved ones who have passed is another wonderful idea.
Nicole and Chris were recently married and I had the honor of performing for their beautiful Vintage Wedding this past September in Rothschild Wisconsin. 

First off, the wedding reception was held at the historic Rothschild Pavilion. It was built in 1911. So much history has taken place here from Glenn Miller, Louis Armstrong, Buddy Holly, Buddy Guy and more.

Nicole & Chris brought in family antiques and heirlooms that helped enhance their wedding day decor and guest experience.
It was a very special day and they had a lot of fun celebrating with their family and friends.
Please enjoy a few of their beautiful Wedding photos!

A Guy’s Guide To Diamond Quality And Engagement Ring Styles

6/18/2013

OK guys. You’ve decided that the time has finally come to ask that special someone to marry you. All eyes are on you. Before you can ask her to be your bride, however, you’ll first need the perfect engagement ring. But, don’t make one of the most important purchases of your life without first determining your wedding budget. Buying an engagement ring not only represents the start of a lifetime commitment, it can also cost as much as two months salary, according to diamond industry experts.

Before you shop for an engagement ring, do your homework so you can make an informed purchashing decision. Get started here with a guy’s guide to:


THE FOUR “C’S” OF DIAMOND QUALITY:

  • Carat: Regardless of popular belief, carat refers to the diamond’s weight, not size. The carat affects the size, but isn’t the measure of it. Depending on your wallet and her preference, choose a carat weight that pleases you both.
  • Clarity: Clarity is determined by the number of flaws in the diamond. But just because a stone has flaws, doesn’t mean they are visible to the naked eye. Review diamond clarity information before investing in a flawless diamond that may not be any different to her than one that may have small, undetectable flaws.
  • Cut: The cut refers to proportions as opposed to shape. How expertly the diamond was cut from its original, rough form determines how much brilliancy and shine is reflected from the angles and facets. An ideal diamond has the balance of its weight distributed evenly, rather than too shallow or deeply cut.
  • Color: Ideally, a diamond would be clear and colorless. They are, however, often naturally made with tinges of soft yellow or shades of white.


ENGAGEMENT RING STYLESNow that you have at least a small amount of general knowledge to help you begin your diamond search, the diamond you select becomes a matter of preference. What shape, size and style interests you and your future bride the most? If you’re uncertain as to what her preferences might be,  don’t be afraid to ask her. Odds are she will have a number of helpful suggestions. If you’re set on making an engagement ring purchase without the assistance of your bride-to-be, ask her closest friends and/or trusted female relatives to help you with ideas. Better yet, take them to the store with you to get an idea of what looks good on that left hand finger.

There are five classic diamond engagement ring styles to consider.

  • A Classic Solitaire Ring – You can’t go wrong with a a classic ring combo, a solid band with a single twinkling diamond. Solitaire rings are generally set with round or princess cut stones, but any shape will do.
  • Three-Stone Setting – This ring symbolizes the past, present and future of your relationship, a feature that is sure to win her approval. The three-stone setting can place two smaller stones on each side of the dominant center stone, or it can feature three stones in similar sizes. Most three-stone settings include square or round diamond shapes.
  • A Sparkling Halo – The halo setting is great for making the center diamond look larger without paying for a more weightier carat. The halo style features a border or circle of diamonds that surround a center diamond. This style emphasizes and enhances the shine of the diamond, increasing the perception of its size.
  • An Updated Antique – You don’t have to have an heirloom passed down in the family to find a beautiful, antique keepsake ring. With a less-used engagement ring metal such as brass or bright gold, you can charm your future wife with a unique pear, marquise or emerald shaped diamond.


Diamonds may be the traditional stone of choice for brides-to-be, but review other options and find out if she might prefer a less traditional setting. Other jewels, gems and pearls can be just as eye-catching, or even more so. And if budget is an issue and she’s not concerned with authenticity, consider Cubic Zirconia—a man-made diamond stimulant—instead of the real thing. But guys, don’t try to pass off an imitation without her knowledge. You’ll definitely want to discuss this purchase with your future fiance before you make it. It could, though, be the perfect, temporary solution until your budget allows for the purchase of a genuine diamond engagement ring.

Buying the engagement ring is only the beginning. Once you make the purchase, the real fun begins. Proposing to your wife-to-be can be as romantic (red roses anyone?), silly (maybe try a flash mob?) or memorable (there’s always the Jumbotron proposal) as you make it.

Now that she’s said “Yes!,” let’s get together and talk about all the fun you want to have at your wedding reception. Contact Premiere Emcee, LLC exclusive Wedding Emcee,  today to schedule a no-obligation consultation.

How to Avoid A Boring Wedding Reception

6/8/2013

18 Comments

 
Your wedding reception is the celebration of your new life together. A celebration should mean fun, joy, and happiness.

Just about the worst thing that could happen is a boring wedding reception. You might have elegant decorations and good food, but if your guests are bored they will leave early and no one will have a good time.

To avoid this dilemma here are some tips about how to have a joyous and fun wedding reception:


  1. It is important to have an entertainer and Master of Ceremonies (also known as an MC) who knows both the bride and the groom. If you cannot find anybody from your family or friends to act as the MC, then hire one. Just give the MC an idea of how you want the reception to be. Make sure that the MC you hire is not boring because the outcome of your reception entirely depends on him and your program. Ask your friends or family if they know a seasoned MC who really knows how to get the party going. Ask for several references to make sure that you have the right person.
  2. Make your reception as lively as possible at a pace that keeps your guests engaged. Long speeches are one of the biggest contributors to a boring reception. Tell your parents, the maid of honor, and the best man to make their speeches as short and as direct to the point as possible.
  3. Show a photo montage about how the groom proposed or how you met. Share these romantic experiences to your guests and let them feel the magic too. Make sure to add humor to your presentation. Do not be too serious unless it's needed, for example, when you tell the person how happy you are that you've met.
  4. Choose interesting and well-paced music. Hire a live band that can cover a variety of music fit for a wedding reception. Play music during dinner; just make sure it isn't so loud that it interferes with conversation. You can play ballads when the guests are still eating or for the bride's dance with her father or those other romantic couple's dances. When it is time for the guests to dance, make sure you pick up the pace. If you cannot afford to hire a live band, compile a list of songs and have a DJ do the mixing for you.
  5. Ask the maid of honor or the best man to offer a toast after their speech. Once the marriage toast is done, the bride or groom may make their own speech thanking the guests, families, and friends for coming.

What Brides and Grooms Must Know..

2/9/2012

Premiere Emcee's number one priority is to make your wedding experience one that is elegant and classy, traditional yet unique, and most importantly as stress-free as possible. When making the decision on who to trust with “The Most Important Day of Your Life” please consider the following statistics from a recent survey of brides after their weddings:


· 72% of all brides say they would have spent more time choosing their reception entertainment. This happens because they make a quick decision, and look for the cheapest.

· Almost 100% say they would have spent more of their budget on the entertainment. This is the result of number one above. Cheap is never the best; all DJs/MC's are not trained in wedding reception entertainment, and not ALL are professionals.

· During the planning of a wedding, Brides say their highest priority is their attire, followed by the reception site and caterer - reception entertainment is among the least of their priorities. Within one week after their reception, 78% of Brides say they would have made the entertainment their highest priority! This again is the result of both one and two above. This tells us that 78% of the brides surveyed, after looking back at the outcome of their reception, would have taken the time to manipulate their budget so they could have retained a separate professional MC and DJ. Don’t be the bride that can only recall all the unpleasant memories of her reception, because of the unprofessional abilities of a budget entertainer.

· When asked, 81% of guests say the thing they remember most about a wedding is the entertainment. Not the food, not the flowers, not the cake, the entertainment. It only makes good sense to provide your guest with professional quality entertainment. It is an entertainment function, a celebration, and your guests are looking forward to having FUN.

· 65% of all couples that chose a band to entertain at their wedding said if they had it to do over again, they would have chosen a DJ and a separate MC. Bands can only perform the music they know. Often they are not trained in wedding reception, Emcee skills and coordination. You’re limited to only the music the band knows. With a professional DJ you get all the music you need to reach everyone’s taste, from the youngest to the oldest.
