Perfect Color Selections- Drop Your Crayons!

You no longer have to grab your crayons or paint swatches to select the perfect color combination. I have found the ultimate tool for selecting the colors for your special event!

Every event should have a minimum of three colors. You start with your primary color; the one you want to be prominent throughout the print material, decor, and accent to fashion. For example, pink is seen as the primary accent for many weddings. The Color Scheme Designer allows you to mark a starting point and then determine if you would like to select only a compliment, a triad, or tetrad (four colors). The color wheel has markers that you can rotate around to the color of your choice. What an easy way to select colors per season: Fall, Summer, Spring, & Winter!

Not only will this tool help you generate a proper color scheme for your event, its also FUN to play around with! Check out some creative swatches that I came up with for each season!

The Cotillion: Kansas City's Newest Event Space

I am currently the General Manage of a brand new event space in the Kansas City area, The Cotillion. From the first day of business in June 2010, I have hosted 22 events ranging from birthday parties, wedding receptions and charity events. The space was intelligently designed to be contemporary while also elegant and easily suitable for each client's taste. After 22 events I have seen just about every color combination, and every one of them looked amazing.

To learn more information about The Cotillion please visit the Official Website! Check out some photos of the space below. I will update you with photos from events that we have had in the past as well as those that are in the future. Enjoy!
