Chilling on the
JOB!!!! Whether I'm working 'near
or far' - or in this case across a few
provincial borders - I always find time to take
a break. Oceanside or backyard, hope you're
making 'me' time this
summer!
Elvis Rocking for the
Cure! We were at the 4th annual
'Rock for the Cure' in Caledon. Weather was
awesome, & even Elvis showed up!

What I did on my Summer
Vacation!
"Have
Trailer, will Travel" should read
my bumper sticker! When a client's daughter
asked if I could do her wedding, I was
flattered, as word of mouth referrals are my
favourite. But when she said "Its seaside
beside the Ocean & on the bluffs - it's in
Prince Edward Island - can you do it?" I'm
originally from Nova Scotia, and to return to
the maritimes wasn't a big arm twist for me. I
welcomed the opportunity to see the Ocean
again!

Lots of Summer still
left!
Though Mother Nature has
given us a strong dosage of Summer already,
we've still got two more months! It doesn't take
much to turn any occassion into a celebration.
An afternoon BBQ can easily become a garden
party, with a few Urn rentals, furniture, linen
& fresh florals. And with lighting, bug
zappers & outdoor heaters, an afternoon
affair under the sun can easily become more
romantic & dramatic under a starry night
& moon
light.

Too late for Hanging
Baskets?!?!
No one expected the heat
that came with late Spring and early Summer. For
the past few weeks, clients with Urn rentals
have been asking "Can you help my Hanging
Baskets?" Our poor flowers aren't sure what
season they're in as high winds, torrential
downpours and consecutive 30+ temperatures
are overheating &
knocking the natural life of real botanicals.
100% Replica in your
Hanging Basket is much easier on maintenance.
Don't think of it as
"cheating" on Mother Nature; you're providing a
helping hand, helping her for the rest of the
summer!

Add Drama to a Venue
Party!
The Devil's Pulpit is a
natural beauty as it sits nestled atop the
rolling hills of Caledon, with breathtaking
views. The Bolton Rotary Club celebrated their
60th anniversary this past June, and they wanted
their members to feel as special as the
occassion. When we pick a place, we look at the
space & the menu, but we forget about the
attention to the details that can transform it
from a
simple
'venue' to a
'BienVenue'!

There's No Place like
'Home'! Sometimes, our homes are
the ideal venues, as its sentimental for the
celebration, or its chosen for necessity. At
Grand Entrance Design, we capture your
environment to suggest and create the
enhancement, whether for the season or the
special occasion. It begins with a visit, a
first consultation that introduces me to your
home, which now is considered the venue. As a
colour specialist, I'm able to create your theme
from your existing palate, and create something
delicious!
