The 2016 Color of the Year is Here!

One of my favorite times is one Pantone announces it's color of the year.  The color of the year is always on display throughout wedding season and other events and mixed into fashion, home design - everything!  This year Pantone decided to introduce two beautiful colors that can be paired, or stand alone and certainly create a calming, natural and even ethereal look.  

Rose Quartz and Serenity could both be paired with a charcoal suit on your groom, or even a classic black tux.  I would choose Rose for bridesmaids for a romantic look and pair it with beautiful hydrangea in the serenity shade.  For more examples of these calming colors, see below.  For more ideas on how to use them for your next event, contact me!  







Happy New Year! 2015 Event Highlights


2015 was certainly a busy and exciting year for Eccellenza Events.  I'm so grateful for all of my friends and family that support my business, and my wonderful clients.  I'm excited to see what the year ahead will bring as I work towards a new website and growing my business.  As part of the exciting year ahead, Eccellenza Events has moved!  We're now located in convenient and adorable Stoneham, MA.  Stoneham is the town both my husband and I grew up in, and home to a few of my other favorite event vendors!  I look forward to hearing from all of you in the coming year.  I still have availability so contact me anytime.

Below are a few of my favorite photos from 2015 events; I hope you like them too!  







Day-off coordination and decorating
















Sometimes event planning means making flower arrangements for a fundraiser in a closet at the Museum of Science!  Still love it though!












Definitely a favorite from 2015!  A Cape Cod wedding fully planned and designed by Eccellenza Events for the wonderful Amanda & Mitch Robbins.  The sweetheart table was to die for when the sun went down!






Kids parties may be even more fun than weddings - stay tuned for more news about that!



Eccellenza Events can fully customize invitations, decorations, thank you cards, favors and even cupcakes to match your event!  Yes, we bake too!  
















Best wishes to all of you for a happy and healthy 2016!

Wedding Wednesday - 2015 Color of the Year


One of my favorite times is one Pantone announces it's color of the year.  The color of the year is always on display throughout wedding season and I love the 2015 color - MARSALA!  Described by Pantone as naturally robust and earthy wine red, Marsala enriches our minds, bodies and souls.  Look for it to enrich wedding palettes all year as well.  Pair it with a crisp tan linen suit for summer soirees or a deep charcoal suit for a fall fete.  Here are few great examples on uses for this rich tone.    


Add touches of gold for a regal elegance


Blake could rock any color, but Marsala looks gorgeous here!  And that leg!


Marsala and Blush for a romantic combination....swoon-worthy! 

Need help deciding how to incorporate this shade into your next event?  Contact me for more ideas. 

Thanks for checking out Wedding Wednesday!

Happy Planning!
