New Hot Wedding Color Combos

In my search of new wedding combos, I came across light blue and light yellow. I love how the colors are fresh and calming and not over-powering. For the bride that doesn't want all bold colors but wants their colors to pop, this combo would be perfect. The combo is normally used at baby shower for little boys but looks great especially used in paper products like invitations, place cards, and save-the-date cards.



















In addition, here are some more new combos for 2010 found on My Personal Artist's blog:

Teal and Coral**

Vintage Purple and Sky Blue

Emerald and Cream

Mauve and Wine

Lilac and Sky Blue

Wine and Blush Pink

Sky Blue and Light Yellow**

Mocha and Blush Pink

Warm Gray and any Pink or Coral or Blue or Purple**

Olive and Mauve

Mint and Vintage Purple**

(**Ones I really like)

Here are the colors that are showing up in posting online for 2010:

New Website Name

We have decided to change the website name to www.OnlyInYourDreamsPlanning.com, make a note of the change.

The name change should be easier to remember especially since it is the blog's name also.

Thanks for your continued support!

Going Green Favors

Going Green has been gaining a lot of speed especially in the last few years and having a “green” wedding is one of the ways the new direction has been promoted. Many items can be changed to have a "green" wedding and one of the many is the wedding favors. Plantable wedding favors are a great way to give back to the environment while giving guests a favor they will use instead of a candle or bag of candies. In going with the trend, other party plantable favors are becoming popular also. Here are some plantable favors I found on Etsy by GreetingsthatGrow and ClaudiasCreations that can be used for weddings, birthday parties, baby showers, or any special occasion:

Happy Father's Day!!!

While grocery shopping for my Mother’s Day meal last month, I was told by one of the store managers to don’t forget Father’s Day next month. That comment got me thinking about how Father’s Day doesn’t get as much praise or acknowledgment as Mother’s Day. In a lot of households, Mother’s Day is a huge event sometimes requiring a lot of work and preparation. However, about a month later the energy level goes down and little is done for the fathers. Well, I want to change that stereotype…

To all of the fathers and fathers-to-be (I know of a lot of them currently) out there, I want to send a huge HAPPY FATHER’S DAY greeting to all of the fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers, uncles, new fathers, fathers-to-be, and anyone else deserving. Do something special for that special man or men. And for those of us that have lost our special men, don't forget them, honor them on Sunday and do something special in your life that they would want you to do.

Dream Re-Energized!

Greetings,

I'm M'Kaneghay Hudson and I am starting my blog to introduce my wedding and event planning company, Only In Your Dreams. While planning my wedding, my desire for planning was re-energized. Also, I recognized the joy on that day and wish to help others realize their dream wedding. With my true passion for event planning, I love seeing an event come together from the beginning stages to the event date, it is one of the best feelings. With my creative ability, I am able to make an event look extravagant on any budget.

With the wedding and event planning industry ever changing, I will use my blog to update you with new ideas and tips, and any bits of information I hope you find helpful. Planning an event requires a lot of time and energy, and can lead to many stress-filled days and nights. I provide the value needed to have the "dream" event with as little stress possible, by paying attention to every detail and allowing you to sit back and relax.

We Prove That Dreams Can Come True!
