Personal Touches
There has been a growing interest for more unique ways to put a personal stamp on an event. It was one of our most exciting challenges last year to work with clients and vendors to find the details that would help set each event apart.

Dramatic Decor
We had so much fun working with clients to design dramatic lounge areas and other fabulous decor. Incorporating one really big element can really make an impact on the overall event experience.

New Destinations
Each year, we are pleasantly surprised by the opportunities we have to work in new areas or venues. In 2009, our work took us to some very unique destinations, including Napa, California. We also enjoyed working for the first time at some places closer to home.

Color Watch– The Return of Pastels
We are always interested in color trends. While we often work with our clients to determine the best color palette for their event, we tend to follow their natural preferences. Last year, the single most commonly used color chosen by our clients was yellow - bright, sunny yellow to soft, buttery yellow. But, more prominent than that was a return to using soft, pastel colors mixed together in beautiful new ways.

Gorgeous Gowns
The wedding gown is one of the most significant reflections of a bride’s style. Last year, we loved seeing our brides express their incredible styles in a wide range of beautiful wedding gowns.

Winter Weddings
Weddings are no longer just for Summer months. One of my favorite weddings from last year was in December. On December 12th, I had the pleasure of helping Carol Lynn and Danny celebrate their marriage, family, friends and a few holiday traditions at Holy Trinity Catholic Church and Halcyon House. December 12th at 12pm, it seemed "meant to be" to use the 'Twelve Days of Christmas' song as inspiration for this wedding! Joel Wolke at Occasions designed a beautiful table that served as the perfect foundation for the amazing and inspired table designs by Dragonfly, where each table reflected a different day in the song.

Web Wonder
The Worldwide Web continues to be an amazing resource for our industry. In 2009, Pineapple Productions joined the staggeringly growing masses of social networkers with the launch of our own Facebook page and blog, Pineapple Post. We have found so many sources of inspiration in the blog-o-sphere (Style Me Pretty, Elements of Style, and Snippet & Ink, to name a few) and, of course, within the shops of Etsy.
Overall, 2009 was a growing year for Pineapple Productions, a year of incredible new opportunities and amazing people. Thank you so much to all of you for your continued support. We look forward to sharing lots more inspiration and events in 2010!
