Wedding Flowers

A lot of thought will need to be put into the wedding flowers that you choose.  They will highlight and complement both the bride’s dress, the bridesmaid’s dresses and the ceremony and reception venues.

So, aim to choose dresses first and plan well ahead when thinking of flowers, remembering that some flowers are only available in certain seasons.  Perhaps it might be useful to visualise in your mind which colours so you have your own personal idea before visiting the florist who will work to co-create the perfect bouquet. Think about walking down the aisle and ultimately choose a spray or posy that you imagine will be both beautiful and in harmony with you in this moment.

Look through bridal magazines, surf the internet, visit florists, take in the colours and ideas, styles of sprays until you are satisfied that you know what you would like.

Classic wedding flowers include roses, the lily, and orchid. This doesn’t mean you should have a classical bouquet. You can mix and match with whatever catches your eye and heart always keeping in your mind’s eye, your dress and special day.

Round bouquets are popular with many brides and offer room for larger flowers.  Exotic sprays offer bright splashes of color but this is not perhaps for everyone.  It mostly will depend on your personal choice and what you think looks good with your chosen attire. A combination of your personality, your dress and venue should be held in mind and will add to the perfect highlight of flowering bloom.

Lots of love from Vanity Fare.

We offer you our splendid venue and are always on hand to offer our expertise towards co-creating  a perfect special day.

Bridal Gift Registry

Enroll in a Bridal Gift Registry 9 months prior to your Wedding Day. Here are some useful tips!!

Selection - What range of products and brands does the registry carry? Make sure the registry you pick has the brands you want, a variety of price points, and a large selection of different products.

Shipping -  Will they ship to the address you designate? Can they send gifts in a batch? The best retailers will send your gifts to any address you specify. That spares your guests the hassle of having to go to a store or the post office to pick up your gift.

Convenience - Is the process hassle-free for buyers? Can your list be faxed to faraway guests so they can order by phone or fax back their order? Does the store have a toll-free number? Better yet, will your registry be available online? Can guests purchase gifts online?

Tracking - How will the retailer keep track of your registry? How fast after a gift is bought will the purchase be reflected on the list? Big retailers should have a computerized system that is updated frequently. 

Exchanges - How long is the exchange/return period? What are the terms? The exchange and return policy is crucial. You don't want to end up with any duplicates or get back from your honeymoon and find out that you have only 10 days left to exchange or return any items you don't want. Read the
fine print!

Perks - Different retailers offer different benefits. For example, some offer what's called a completion program that allows you to fill in whatever you don't receive at a discount. Or they may let you buy your wedding bands at a discount.

File Keeping - How long will your registry list be kept active after the wedding? Guests have up to one year from your wedding day to buy you your gift, so that's at least how long your registry should be kept active.

Sweet Sixteen or Quinceanera

In these special coming of age occasions for girls passing into adulthood, as we enter into the season of Autumn, we at Vanity Fare thought we would inspire some ideas for your celebrations for those born in the later months of the year, for Sweet Sixteen and Quinceanera.

Whether you wish your celebration to be formal or casual, we offer you our venue and will help to cater for your personal choices in the ideas you have for the up and coming birthday girl.

The Party

You might be thinking of a formal sit down meal to celebrate or a more casual setting. You may wish   a special theme to honor the birthday girl and think of some games like a treasure hunt or musical chairs. If you are thinking of a color theme perhaps the Sweet Sixteen’s favourite colors and at this time of year, the colors of nature also blend into a warm sweetness that symbolises the approaching of maturity. Candles are important and you may wish to select  shades that are warm for the  ceremony.  And for the birthday cake, you could personalise with name or a picture.  Her favourite things in the world might be useful to think of when setting a theme.

Gifts

For both the Quinceanera and the Sweet Sixteen, engraved and personalised gifts are popular and the keepsakes will always remind the young ladies of their special coming of age celebration. A photo montage of all the years leading to this day would make a precious personal souvenir too. I think some nice elegance in the form of jewelry set perhaps with the birthstone of the Sweet Sixteen/Quinceanera is also a very hallmark of the day to remember.

If you have an upcoming Sweet Sixteen/Quinceanera, we offer you at Vanity Fare our Splendid Venue and our support in any way we can to make your girl’s day memorable.

Bar Mitzvah Hall in NJ

Do you have an Upcoming Bar Mitzvah?

We cater for your Bar and Bat Mitzvahs here at Vanity Fare.  If your child, relation, or friend is reaching this special coming of age celebration, we are right here to offer you assistance in tailoring your special day to meet the wishes you have and to offer you a splendid venue in which you may require to host your day.

For the child, his or her thirteenth year is very important and you will be focusing on creating an effect that represents the uniqueness of the Bar Mitzvah.

What Gift should I bring?

Bringing a gift to the party is a nice symbol to share the celebration with the young adult.  Some gifts are given traditionally but whatever you have in mind, always bear the personality of the child in mind.  Ask the parents if you are unsure.

A Kiddush cup, Tallis or Tefilin are traditionally gifted by the parents, grandparents and close relatives of the Bar Mitzvah. 

Other ideas include gifts of money, often gifted in sums of 18.  18 symbolizes good luck and in Jewish; Chai which means life.  Multiples of 18 ($18, $36, $72 etc) are popular in monetary gifts, and serve to wish the Bar Mitzvah a good life and prosperity.  Gift cards are another good idea allowing for personal choice.

Food

Whether it’s a sit down or a buffet style reception, one thing everyone loves is hummus. It’s a delicious blend of chickpeas seasoned in a variety of ways. Savory tasters might include mini brisket sliders, mini sushi, pastrami or bagels filled with kosher foods like white fish and salad.  On the sweeter side, what about a chocolate fountain, ice cream,  and cupcake towers; a variety of color and a mouthwatering sight.  Is your mouthwatering yet?  It should be when you think of Rugelach, a favorite pastry filled with walnuts, chocolate, marzipan to name a few. 

Here we cater for your special occasions and offer you our splendid venue to host your Bar Mitzvah. 

With love from Vanity Fare.

Your Bridal Shower

That very special day when the girls get together to celebrate the bride to be. Do you have a bridal shower forecast? At Vanity Fare, we looked at some ideas we thought you might enjoy on your bridal shower day.

Fun and Festive!

Bingo with a twist of BRIDE of course. Simply create bingo cards but instead of bingo, implement bride. Whoever wins will then call Bride!! A sweet-themed idea to celebrate a bridal shower.

Two Truths and a Lie

This concept involves the guests remembering their most memorable moments with the bride. In turn, each guest will then tell the party three significant stories; one of which is not true. The guest who spots the lie earns points. We have all heard the saying that truth can be stranger than fiction? This game proves that in some cases this is definitely strangely true. A fun-packed memorable game. Bridal shower games are a fantastic way for people who don’t know each other well to get acquainted.

Cake Candy and Color

Finger foods work all day long so if you have to slot your shower into a morning or afternoon, they are a good way to go. Cakes and cookies can be personalized to honor the bride to be.
If you’re having a color theme, you’ll be thinking from candy to balloons and it’s nice to pick decorations and foods that compliment each other.

There’s always a way for sweet and savory. If you are thinking warm colors; pinks, orange, reds, trays of yellow orange and red peppers, carrot batons are great complimentary colors to sit beside your candies. Food coloring allows us to create a beautifully diverse array of cakes and candies.

Of course you want a variety of food, but think carefully on a select few things that will really stand out together if you are thinking of a color theme.

If there’s one persons taste which is important, it’s that of the bride. It’s her special day so be sure to join forces to find out what she loves. She will be the one who provides the key to colors and foods she likes.
If you think that a sit down dinner would be preferred; this allows for a beautiful table setting and choice of menus. Again think of the bride. If she’s more of a formal lady perhaps this would be the preferential food presentation.

At Vanity Fare we offer you our beautiful venue to host your Bridal Shower. Please feel free to contact us if you would like any assistance with your planning.

Your Wedding Ring

The wedding ring is a symbol of eternal love. There will never be a ring that can equal this piece of jewelry.  The exchange of rings represents a  lifetime between two people who love each other exchanging hearts and committing to each other on the deepest level. The shape of the wedding ring represents the circle of life and you both have entwined circles. You want to find exactly the perfect set to express how deep your love is.

What is perfect for you depends on who you are. Some of us have a quirky sense of humor and might go for custom made jewelry that exhibits their quirkiness while others may choose  precious symbols of a time or place where they fell deeply in love. Custom made jewelry gives variety and individuality  and the thoughts behind it give it special  meaning. When talking about wedding rings, the saying the thought really went into it couldn’t be any more profound. You might cherish your partner in a special way that only you both recognize and this can be shared with your guests in whatever way you see fit; the best man can make it part of his speech or you can keep it personal between you both depending on your choices. Wedding rings symbolize an actual wearing of your relationship so they have to be selected with care.

You will have your own personal preference, and whether silver, gold or platinum, mixed with birth stones or diamonds,  your rings will be crafted to you both as a couple.  They can be engraved with the date of your wedding day or something that you both remember and want to keep like the place you met, or something you said that you both always remembered.

A band signifies unity and oneness, and no matter what precious metal it is made from, from the rings resound the echoes of everything of you and your partner.

With love from Vanity Fare.
We at Vanity Fare care about our clients and offer you our experienced insights and invite you to keep us in mind for all your wedding requirements.
