This is a great drink to serve on Halloween. First, pour the peach schnapps. Then, slowly pour the Irish Creme. Do not mix! The Creme will clump together and settle at the bottom of the schnapps. It will have the appearance of an internal organ!! Pour the grenadine over the Creme for a completely disgusting looking, yet thoroughly tasty party drink!

Enter into Fall

A warm entrance to your home is the perfect welcome to all of your holiday festivities!  Nothing beats the smell of pumpkin spice and the warm glow of rust colored candles in the fall to make your home feel warm and cozy.  Get those pumpkins, twigs and bales of hay out... cause we are going to decorate your porch, stoop or door today!  No matter how small the entrance, you can bring a touch of fall to your home with ease.  The best part is - this decor lasts until Thanksgiving!

My Favorite!  Pumpkin carving is out - painting is in!





I love how they use hay to bring height to the pumpkins.
  


Nothing beats rocking chairs on the front porch!

Tailgating in the South

Fall is in the air and football season is well in swing. College games on Saturday and NFL on Sunday provides us plenty of opportunity to hang with friends, grill your favorite grub and sip on afternoon cocktails.  Here are a few reminders of our favorite Fall pastime... TAILGATING! 

And two of my favorite Sunday Funday drinks... Cheers!

So you are getting married! Congrats!

The date is set, the location is secured, and the vendors are booked.  Fantastic!  Now the fun part, the DETAILS… but who will make sure my candy bar is set-up?  Who will make sure the candles are lit?  Who will make sure my family photographs are placed on the welcome table?  Me, that’s who!  My goal is simple, to create a stress-free experience throughout your event.  Whether it’s securing the perfect event location, designing centerpieces or simply tying bows on favors, Style My Vision can help you with all of your needs.

It became apparent to me while planning my own wedding that a coordinator was not a luxury, but a necessity.  I had a vision in mind an without my fabulous friend, Elizabeth, it wouldn't have been brought to life!  Below are a few details of my special day.  Thanks E!  XOXO
