We’re bragging on…Anne Bryan!
categories: Entertainment, fabulous reception sites, From the Consultants, Reception ideas

We are going to brag a bit today about Tucson Event Planner Anne Bryan, owner of Creative Events, LLC. She is well-known locally as an event maven and was featured in an article recently in the Arizona Daily Star!

One of the biggest decisions every couple has to make regarding location for their ceremony and reception.  Many brides and grooms choose to host their events at  a home; either the B&G’s home, a relative’s home, or a home that can be rented.

This option offers a different kind of vibe to the event than a resort does. There’s an intimate slant to it all and often, with Arizona’s amazing evening weather, many couples choose to entertain outside. Anne Bryan was asked to dole out some tips to readers regarding backyard decor.

In the article, Anne suggests “spiffing things up a bit but not going overboard or using something you wouldn’t normally want in your backyard”. Among my favorite ideas from the article is the suggestion to “change out the pool lights to compliment the décor” and to “use aromatic plants to enhance the mood”. Anne’s idea to use small lanterns for hanging on plants or bushes is solid advice because the lanterns protect both the plants and the guests from the flame while still adding a gorgeous glow to the area. Anne is an event planner that thinks of everything!

Photographer Chris Richards says, “(this is) the biggest celebration you’re ever likely to throw, with the most friends and family members together in one place. It’s so much more than just an exchange of vows; it’s a chapter in the story of your lives.”

We couldn’t agree more! Happy New Year, dear readers!
