Seat covers for your wedding reception
When I searched Flickr for seat covers, there was just one result for anything wedding related — everything else was toilet seat covers (I would never have made that connection!) and car seat covers. Sorry, when someone says seat covers, I think of weddings and how they brighten up a room. But that’s just me.
I think, if you look through the bridal magazines, seat covers seem to be what everyone is doing, but I don’t think that’s the case in reality. First off, they can be expensive — say you get seat covers at $5 each, but you have 500 guests. That’s another $2,500, excluding any fees for delivery, set up and pick-up. But I think they can be worth it, and I’ve got some pictures to prove it. Above, if you were wondering, is a wedding reception we decorated at the Our Lady Of the Angels Cathedral‘s conference center.

My husband is a designer at our local newspaper here and quite honestly is where I’ve learned any and all graphics and design expertise, especially when it comes to programs like Photoshop and InDesign, which is how I created the above logo. Yesterday, he was telling me about Colorscope, a color palette like a horoscope. He told me that description for the color he liked the best really corresponded to his personality.
When it comes to weddings, I don’t think too many brides really think about the meaning or personality attached to the colors they choose — either its simply a favorite color or they know they look best in that color, or both. But still, I think its an interesting exercise. For example, above, I used a darker pink organza that I might describe as dusty rose. Probably the closest corresponding color on the colorscope would be Strawberry, which carries the following personality:
