Impress Them at the Entrance

It could be the moment of the door opening or the gift opening, either way, first impressions matter. Creating an element of surprise and delight with guests and party-goers can mean the difference in an experience that’s talked about for weeks, or one with not so much as a whisper. Whether it’s the first peek inside a party room or the entrance to a luxury guest suite, we have mere seconds to grab their attention and create an amazing first impression. What combination of colors, textures and visuals will you use to create an enchanting, unexpected moment?

Make an Impact at the Opening
What’s the first thing guests see as they enter the room? Does the scene invite them in or leave them wondering why they came? Try adding a design twist to a colorful floral arrangement by pairing it with an artisan look that’s unique and beautiful, yet doesn’t overwhelm. A distinct ceramic piece, blended inside a hand-crafted gift box with a small bouquet, makes a thoughtful, artistic selection that can be enjoyed as event centerpieces, or on the entrance table as guests arrive in their room. The best part? This gift keeps on giving, it’s meant to travel home to continue the celebration! The hand-crafted gift box can be used to hold blooming succulents in the sun room, or scented soaps and hand towels in the master suite. And each custom ceramic tumbler keeps the conversation going at the bar, or kitchen table, for years to come. (See examples in Tablescapes.)

You Had Me at Hello
The gift tag is often at best an afterthought, or at worst, a complete oversight in the gifting process. Taking the time to select a simple, well designed gift tag can set the stage for a delightful gift experience. Take a few moments to complete the look and create a feeling of surprise anticipation. Delivering your thoughtful message on a custom-designed gift tag can capture a client’s attention from the minute the gift is unveiled. It’s a small detail that leaves a big impression.
