Post Valentine’s Day 2019 Celebrations?

A Little, Romantic Background Music, Please…

Even though the holiday has passed, there are still post Valentine’s Day 2019 celebrations ahead this weekend.

Weekend date nights? Special romantic brunches?  Depending on your venue’s proposed ambiance (and night of the week), you may consider adding a few classical, romantic selections.  With this being the month of love and romance, we thought this was the perfect time to share a few of our favorites.

For these types of holidays and other special occasions, you may want to select linens outside your day-to-day selection.  With Bergen Linen on your side, this is easier than you think. Call (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com with any questions you may have.

2019 Wedding Trends

The Signature Cocktail

A signature cocktail is the perfect addition to this year’s weddings – and other special events.  As Valentine’s Day is this week, we especially love this pretty red cocktail. (It also provides a spring/summer vibe which we certainly can use.)

 

Customization is key at this year’s events.  Party throwers are looking into building special stations for attendees such as:

• Cocktail Stations
• Grilled Cheese Stations
• Sundae and Dessert Stations

At these various stations, people are encouraged to mix and match. It is all about creating something that they would love to eat or drink.  And who wouldn’t want that type of encouragement?

 

Along with these areas, party planners (including DIY!) can continue to build upon their theme or color scheme with additional finishing touches.  Is your signature cocktail a bold shade of red or mysterious blue?  Why not incorporate this fun pop of color with your linens? Perhaps, an overlay? Chair sash? Runner?  It is entirely up to you. With whatever you choose, we know you will be happy with your Bergen Linen party linen selection.

Living Coral is 2019’s Inspiration

It is bold, beautiful and bright –  yet comforting.  This trending shade should be our inspiration for the year.

The pretty hue is also certainly reminiscent of the spring and summer seasons that we long for.  With winter in full effect, let’s welcome anything that brings a little warmth in.

Living Coral is great for pairings and combinations. Here are a few of our favorites:

• Bright Yellow
• Blazing Orange
• Hot Pink

How will you be incorporating Living Coral?  Pantone’s Color of the Year is known for influencing industries such as event designing, home décor and textiles.  You will definitely be seeing Living Coral throughout 2019.

Bergen Linen offers a large selection of colors, textures and sizes. Hosting a special event?  There will be an increase in demand for coral (and like or complimentary colors) over the next year.  If your a venue or event designer, you can expect clients to be inquiring about this color.  Will you be ready? Even if your guests aren’t calling for it, you may simply wish to brighten up your current daily linens.  Consider pairing a pretty napkin with your neutral table linens. Call (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com.
