Fandango Catering Offers 4 More Ideas to Make Your Event Distinctive

People are always looking for ways to make their party or event distinctive and today we offer 4 more ideas for making your event stand out.

Use colored or reflective material linens--The reason celebrity parties look cool and luxe is that their event designer doesn't use beige or all white! Medium-strong colors for table linens like mango, orange, orchid, cornflower or aqua blue, bright yellow or pink, or black and white toile are hot for this year's spring and summer events. 

If you like an all-white look, add one or more silk or satin ivory or very pale gray puddled cloths on the food, guest, or bar tables, with the food or plates or bar stuff or whatever over that, and you'll see that it has that light look you like but is more interesting because of the reflective nature of the puddled cloths.

If it's an outdoor event, use a canopy--Even if your outdoor event is small, a canopy over the food or bar tables really add oomph to your event and the EZ Up ones go up in less than 5 minutes with no weights needed unless you're in a really windy area.  White canopies look best--other colors look too much like a day on the beach rather than an event.

Serve a cool retro trendy signature drink--A cool retro trendy signature drink like a rob roy, sidecar, Manhattan, tequila sunrise, or, for a more elegant touch, a mix of champagne and a liqueur like Chambord or a mix off retro trendy liqueurs like Sambucca, Frangelico, Gran Marnier, Tía María.  So cool this year.

Cool punch bowls are hot this year--Punch bowls are back and cool mod ones can be found at Crate & Barrel and department or specialty stores or lovely vintage ones on ebay or at better resale shops.

Warmly,

Kristina
