We are always elated when we find out our clients are expecting! We came up with a cute gift that is perfect for any couple that has a bundle of joy on the way.

If you follow us on our social media outlets, you may have caught our cute little idea on Instagram. We wrapped Arbonne baby products in a beautiful gingham nursery robe from Pottery Barn. We had the baby’s name embroidered on the pocket of the robe for a personalized touch. This is great for new parents because Arbonne offers natural, safe products– perfect for a newborn’s sensitive skin. It’s a cute little set that will be fun for both baby and Mom and Dad! Remember to follow our baby board on Pinterest for more fun tips and ideas.

Before and After

When you are looking for your perfect event venue, it can be challenging to picture a raw space as host to a beautiful event. At The Event Group, we love raw spaces because it gives us the freedom to create exactly the look that our clients want. From draping walls to adding beautiful furniture to installing lighting to set the mood, we like to do it all. Check out some of our before and after shots to illustrate why choosing a raw space might be a good choice for your next event!

NewHazlett Theater

hotmetalstudio 649This beautiful winter wedding took place at New Hazlett Theater in Pittsburgh. You can see the before shot of the space in the first photo. The ceremony and reception were in the same space so a flip of the space during cocktail hour transformed chairs in rows to a gorgeous wedding seated reception.

Convention Center Before

Main Picture

This stunning wedding, held at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, was incredible. We draped the 30-foot-high walls in ivory to give a more elegant feel to the very large space. A silver, ivory and blush pink color scheme was carried throughout the event. Lit fabric columns around the room echoed the blush pink flowers, and a monogram graced the dance floor. Dining tables of various shapes and sizes filled the ballroom.

WESCO NASCAR Themed Meeting
Talk about a big change! This is another photo of the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, but this time, we designed the room for a corporate client. Since this was themed, we left no detail out! We pulled the racing check in the corporate logo and added it in the centerpieces and on the chairs. The lit centerpieces and fabric columns added great ambiance to the spacious venue.

Stay tuned for more before and after posts and for more photos of our events, please see our gallery!

Instead of your attire, incorporate green touches throughout your event. We love the green escort cards and the pretty green napkin!
