Happy New Year all.. as Auntie Mame said…
“Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death. ”
Rosalind Russell
Its time to let the old out, kick it to the corner and put on a new attitude. Let’s resolve to live life, eat desert first, wear purple, dance just because we can, skip because it makes you feel 10 years old again and smile at the world if not just because it really is a funny little place.
There is an old story of a Grandfather who fell asleep on the couch one day. His grandson thought it great fun to put some limburger cheese under his nose as he slept. When the grandfather awoke with shock, he declared the couch stank, as he stood up he again declared that the house stank. He walked outside to the front porch and there he declared…the whole world stank!
The point is that we can perceive that life stinks because of our perspective on life…
As a designer our main goal is to see things from as many angles as possible, sometimes it just as simple as moving a few degrees around something that we see the answer, or a new design falls into place. Photographers do this all the time, they move to see. If we are not moving we are not seeing what is there.
We recently did a Wedding for a Bride that did just that, saw things from a different perspective. She had ideas to express herself and put her signature on the whole event. It was at the beautiful Waterworks Restaurant and Lounge. A small yet stylish wedding was photographed by one of Philadelphia’s most talented Photographers…Sofia Negron
Here are some of the photos to show you.

Here is her bouquet…

Contemporary with Tradition
So heres to a new year full of promise, full of adventure and may it bring you many joys…

What is FRESH? it is an industry trade show for the Philadelphia Region of ISES. What is ISES? it is the industry for Event Professionals.
