Step1

Choose the Date and Location of your event. Write down the general look of the location and forecast the weather.

eg. Summer. Country Club.

Step2

Choose the formality of the party. Formal sit down, casual buffet, trendy cocktail party, etc.

eg. Semi-Casual Buffet for a class reunion.

Step3

Next, use these references to guide you through the decision process.

Flowers in season.
Favorite locations.
Current Fashion trends.
Favorite things to do.
Favorite stories.
Nearby Holidays.

Be creative!

eg. Modern Whimsical.

Step4

Now that your creative juices are flowing, look at the list you've compiled. If you're not going for the "All the colors in a crayon box", choose a primary color you will use, then choose a complimentary accent color.

eg. School colors for graduated class. Black and Yellow. We added a secondary color to give it a punch, pink peonies.

Step5

Your list should now be narrowed to a few components. Take this list and define it to the limits of the location of your party. Use a substantial portion of your decorating budget for tables that your guests will be sitting at.

eg. Black and white table cloth, yellow natural silk runner, and pink hydrangea centerpieces.
