PRESENTING...

THE SIGNATURE COCKTAIL

STARRING:

The Risky Red Champagne Cooler,

Cider Whiskey Oh So Sour and Melon Gone Wild

Who knew that there were so many different options for a cocktail.
We’ve been hard at work coming up with some fun,
and tasty, beverages just for you!
You can match them to your colors,
Have a bar menu with them on it (The Mr & Mrstini),
Select one that is both of your favorite beverage or
the drink you had on your first date.
The options are endless. And maybe even bottomless??

If you are thinking you want to have a full bar,
But just can’t find room in the budget,
These tasty delights are a great,
And budget friendly option.

Starting at $6.50 each or you can do a package deal!
Supersize that Martini!

Feel free to contact me for more information.

Break Time...

WE DECLARE....BREAK TIME!

Put down that seating chart and walk away from the favors and
Give yourself a break from all the Wedding Planning.

You are going to be one stressed out girl by the time
The wedding rolls around if you aren’t sure
To add some breaks into the planning craze!

Join us this Memorial Day weekend for activities galore!
Stay overnight and enjoy a relaxing massage, take a hike in the sun,
Or just kick back in the Adirondack chairs and enjoy the view.
Or, partake in some of these fun filled activities below.

Have a great weekend…oh, and please resume wedding planning on Tuesday :)

Weather in the Gorge

Are you curious on what the weather is doing at your favorite destination resort?

We have just added a Weather Bug camera on the top of the lodge, looking out over the amphitheater and Columbia River Gorge.

Now you can check out the weather at the lodge.

Just go to: http://weather.weatherbug.com/WA/Stevenson-weather/weather-cams/local-cams.html?zcode=z6286&

The cam is updated every 5 minutes, providing you with up to date weather

and a sneak peak of the beautiful Columbia River Gorge!

Here is to a likelyhood of sun with a forecast for a wedding!

Late Night Snack Attack

I know you are finalizing all the details with a cross of the T and heart above the I,
but I just wanted to share this great idea and new trend with you…the late night snack attack!

After a long day of traveling, shaking it on the dance floor and drinking your favorite cocktail
your guests are going to have a larger appetitie than usual.
And now there is a great way of curving this party hunger…the Late Night Snack!
Provide your guests with a Mashed Potato Martini with all the fixings
or gourmet Bleu Cheese Burger Sliders at about 10p to curve their appetitie.
With prices starting at $10/guest, it’s an inexpensive way to ensure your guests have the best time possible,
and they are sure to appreciate their full bellies!
Plus, they are more likely to dance into the night! Do I hear the YMCA?
For more late night snack ideas and fun enhancements, feel free to contact me!

Wedding Websites and All Their Glory

Wedding Websites are a great way to share all the information

of your big day with family and friends.
You can add the URL information to your “Save The Dates”

or just simply share it with everyone through Facebook.

Guests can log on and get directions to the Lodge, read all about what you
are doing in the planning process

and have fun navigating through all the details of the big day.


Here are a few free ones that I have found to be great:
