Let’s just be honest, you don’t want to go to ALL that work and then have the guests go home thinking it was an “okay” affair.
You want them leaving happy, feeling special, a little wow-ed.
I have learned the hard way that the “wow-factor” comes through the details.
It’s the small intricate things that leave the biggest impressions.
Don’t get me wrong the house-sized blow up tractor is going to get the guests excited, but it’s the adorable favor tag that is going to leave with the guest and the one they may keep in their dresser for a lifetime.
Why is this? Because it is the details that the regular party-planner forgets. It’s not hard to remember the food, the venue, and the balloons.
It’s the little sign saying “Welcome to Marilyn’s Shower”, the coordinating napkin rings, and the well-planned favor boxes that can easily slip our minds.
I have learned –
when you remember the details, the guests remember the party.
I think this is why I love the little custom straw pennants with striped flags I offer in the store so much.
They are a detail. They’re completely unnecessary. Seemingly insignificant. But the wow-factor they bring to an event is huge!
…That and they are 100% waterproof.
Ever since I became a mother of three, I have had an infatuation with things that are waterproof. I dream of my life being waterproof.
I digress. Anyway, ladies… the next time you are planning an event, think about the details.
When the i’s are dotted and the t’s crossed, that is when the magic happens and guests are transported from the mundane and ordinary to your event!
My little custom pennants come in every color of the rainbow and with almost every font. Our striped straws are available in the following striped colors: pink, blue, red, yellow, black, grey, and light orange.
They are 12 dollars for a kit of fifteen. You can find them here.
