Behind the Scenes: MN Bride's Best of 2010 Gala

I'm busy making lists and checking them twice in prep for this week's Minnesota Bride Best of 2010 Gala, which I mentioned a few weeks ago. I thought I'd share a few sneak peeks of some of the details I've been working on.

I had a walk-through of the beautiful venue last week so I could get a clear vision of the space, the event planner's other decor, and where the dessert table would be positioned. A panoramic view outside makes for a perfect backdrop.

Here are some of the paper details I designed to go with the event's color palette. A collection of broad, medium, and thin stripes will be featured on a several desserts and favors.

I'll be back later in the week to share some shots as we set up and prep the table.

MN Bride's Best of 2010 Gala

Yesterday, I began designing a dessert table for Minnesota Bride Magazine's Best of 2010 Gala. The event honors the best Twin Cities vendors in the bridal industry.

Voters cast their ballots for florists, bakers, caterers, venues, and several other vendors. The results will be revealed at the gala and the Fall/Winter 2010 issue of MN Bride will be unveiled. That issue will also feature one of my dessert tables, so I'm very excited to participate in honoring Minnesota's very best.

I'll keep you updated with lots of sneak peaks along the way.
