Petite | Moodboard Monday

We absolutely adore our P.O.S.H. Petites.  There is something so fun about putting together pieces that are fun for kids, yet make an event still sophisticated.  Today we are taking it to the kid’s table for our Monday Moodboard inspiration.

Petite: Pull up a chair

Most moms we know, including us, like the idea of incorporating our children into our special events. If you're afraid that means losing the aesthetic you've worked hard to achieve for your event, look no further than our POSH Petite line. From the Avalon and Petite Chiavari to the Nantucket, these adorable additions are perfect for pulling up a chair for you kiddos. Just take a look at what some of our clients have done with their POSH Petite rentals.

Petite: Pipsqueak Events

We were already impressed by the talented Emily Clarke for her wedding and event planning, but with Pipsqueak events, she takes party planning for your young ones to the next level. Knowing this, we were super excited to see her while perusing our favorite mom reads - D Moms Daily and DFW Child. Her creativity knows no ends, and we love how she used the P.O.S.H. Petite line for this birthday celebration. Check out the images and links below.

Spotted: D Weddings Spring 2013

D Weddings Spring 2013 issue is officially out on stands, and it is giving us spring fever! We spotted a few of our fabulous clients in the pages, like this Real Wedding featuring Amanda Mayfield and Justin Hill with DFW Events. (We shared a few images from this wedding on the blog last month, which you can see here and here.)

The issue also has great tidbits from local experts on ways to make the big day and the planning process much easier on the bride. Our favorite is the "What You Need to Know For Your Wedding Day" series. We especially loved the advice on picking out china patterns.

Wedding Roundup: What Wowed Us

There were too many great weddings out there not to share this week. As a rental company, we love seeing when clients personalize their wedding or event by choosing colors and textures that are representative of them and their landscape or atmosphere. It's amazing how the slightest detail transforms the entire mood of an evening. We can take inspiration from any of these events and translate it into a gala or opening night event. It's one of our favorite parts of this job. From the first to last image, these breathtaking photos completely wowed us. 

DFW Events: Amanda & Aaron

Clockwise from top left: The bridal shoe - sexy but sweet juxtaposed with a lace dress. // The wedding took place at a family home, where it was decided to incorporate a huge existing tree in the yard. The Garden Gate covered it in white rose petals and Amanda and Aaron's initials and wedding date were carved into the trunk. // Tenting sets a luxurious tone. // The beautiful couple en route to the honeymoon.

The ceremony took place inside a tent filled with gorgeous florals and ivory chiavari chairs.

Simple and elegant tabletops with classic chiavari chairs.

Desire to Inspire: Cover the pool for an awesome and unique dance floor and surround the scene with POSH bar stools and hi-boys.

Summer Steal: The Classic Chiavari

It's the favorite that works a ballroom and an outdoor wedding in a field with the same classic cool. Dress it up, choose a bold color, or just let the chiavari speak for itself with natural coloring. We've talked about our love for the chiavari chair before, and now we're spreading the love with one of our Summer Steals. Order and place a deposit for your chiavari by August 31, 2012, and get each chair at a special $6 price on events now throughout 2012. Take your pick of red, green, silver, gold, black, ivory, fruitwood, and natural with your choice of black, ivory, or white cushions. At this price, what are you waiting for?

Wedding Love: Sarah Kate & Zach

We absolutely feel in love with this wedding photographed by Andrea Polito Photography in Abilene. Our West Texas clients always inspire us, and Sarah Kate and Zach were no exception. Emily Clark Events coordinated the wedding along with other amazing vendors, including florals by Fete des Fleur, music by the band Emerald City (have you heard them yet?), cake by Frosted Art Bakery, catering by Perini Ranch, and rentals by POSH Couture Rentals and Taylor Rentals. We picked our favorite images to share with you. Enjoy!

Fireworks, literally and lovingly. 

POSH Petite: Vintage Carnival

Why should adults get to have all the fun? We now offer POSH Petite Rentals for your little prince and princess. Stay tuned for more behind the line. But before you go, check out these precious picks from the new line from Andrea Polito Photography featuring Emily Clarke and Company. Be warned: It might be too adorable for words. 

How cute are these miniature white chiavari chairs?

Pink chiavari chairs with pink and white striped linens. I'm thinking of an Alice in Wonderland tea party.

Don't you love when the serving equipment actually looks cool? This is a great way to make sure your little one wants a milk mustache.

You really can never have too much candy, right?

Carnival themes aren't complete without a ferris wheel cupcake holder. Especially if said cupcakes are from Society Bakery.

More milk, please.

Literally buckets of fun.
