The PR Scoop with Nadia: Making Your Next Event Special!

When planning an event you want to make sure that things run smoothly and it’s memorable. In this series you will learn or in some cases reaffirm the important components that are part of an event. One of the best ways to make sure your event is remembered for years to come is through your décor! Decorations set the tone of the event and it’s the first thing your guests will see when they enter the room. 
 





Decoration Ideas 
 
No Chandelier? Try using Confetti System papier-mâché piñatas. This is ideal for both adult and children parties. Available in metallics including silver, gold and quartz, you are guaranteed to make any dull room sparkle. These piñatas are filled with handmade confetti making them ideal for birthday parties.
Cost: $140 
 
Candles are often used to create an ambiance of soft lighting, why not create a bigger impact by adding a fabulous aroma too! Keep in mind that some people are sensitive to particular scents or might not agree with your selection so keep this idea for more intimate gatherings or select a basic scent like vanilla. 
 
Nest Fragrances has a collection of 12 uniquely scented candles by Laura Slatkin. Scents include Beeswax & Whipped Cream (with essence of steamed rice, honey and cognac) and Wild Oats & Bourbon (with wild oats, mandarin ginger and bourbon).
Cost: $32
