The Q: Hi Always a Blogsmaid,  I wonder if you can suggest any hotel penthouses or spaces in New York City that are big enough to host a reception for 200 people. I like the idea of a penthouse because then we can rent it for the entire night, but I’m also look at other large spaces at hotels, such as the terrace at the Hudson Hotel. Do you have any recommendations for large penthouses or spaces that are not your average hotel ballroom? I’ve looked at the Soho Grand’s penthouse, and, though they say they can do a cocktail-style dinner for 200, I have doubts that it’s big enough. Wha... |

I get a lot of questions about centerpieces - What are some unique centerpieces ideas? What elements should they include? What are some ideas I can use if I’m trying save money? What’s something that would work well with my day’s overall theme? Don’t get me wrong, centerpieces are indeed important, but so is the rest of the table! I think the little things are often overlooked (or perhaps because fancier plates and flatware tend to be a bit more expensive, many couples don’t consider the different options). Enter : Swanky Tables. Annette, the author of this fabulous blog is in... |
