WHAT'S HOT: Chairs! Chairs! Chairs!

Your reception tablescapes are one of the most important parts of your decor and more often than not there is more focus on centerpieces, linens, flatware, and chargers than the overall table style. But in reality, one of the main things your guests notice is where they park at the table so why not accessorize each guests with a chair that pops? Chairs and furniture like these can really add to the overall aura of your fantasy affair:

A sleek cocktail lounge...

A casual outdoor affair...

Ballgowns aren't just for the bride anymore...
Chaircaps add extra flair to chiavari chairs...

Chiavari covers can make your colors pop...

Looking for something casual yet extra fun? Try a Far East theme with your guests sitting indian style....

The ever popular ghost chair doesn't interfere with line of sight... A YFA favorite: The Chameleon Chair...

Celeb for a day....

Every bride should be THE celeb of the day. Whether in LA or NY (or Orlando!), a typical starlet wedding consists of a stunning designer dress, breathtaking flowers and decor, a fabulous wedding planner (hint hint!....), and show stopping jewels (bka...bling).

The first three are relatively easy to accomplish. A Monique Lhuillier, Reem Acra, or Vera Wang is as close as your nearest couture bridal boutique. Before now, it has been hard to glam up that jaw-dropping gown with celeb worthy bling. However, Adorn Brides has been able to make accomplishing that glamorous look a lot more achievable.

Adorn Brides has given brides access to beautiful diamonds usually reserved for those gracing the covers of Vogue, People, and InStyle Magazines. For a mere rental fee, you can accessorize with several carats. Adorn Brides has necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, rented as a set or individually, at several price points.

This 18K White Gold 3-Stone Marquis Diamond Pendant totaling 1.5 carats retails for $7,050. Brides can rent this sparking beauty for $240.

This 6 Carat White Gold tassel diamond necklace retails for $17,100 but rents for $570. The site has diamond necklaces available for rent starting at $100. Here are a few other blingy accessories you may be interested in.....

Sapphire and Diamond earrings

Emille & Nick in BRIDE'S Florida Magazine

Keep your eyes pealed, YFA fans, the gorgeous wedding of Emille & Nick will be featured in the upcoming issue of BRIDE'S Florida Magazine! Get all the juicy details on this adorable couple, and how YFA turned their wedding wishes into the Bride's Fantasy Affair.

FALLing in Love with Emille & Nick

Emille & Nick met while in college at the University of Florida. Nick was a kicker on the football team, and Emille had a long love for sports and the outdoors. They came to the ladies of Your Fantasy Affair requesting an outdoor wedding where they could let guests share their love for Florida’s natural beauty, and have a GREAT time.

Flourish Floral Productions left no detail untouched. The bride’s white lush bouquet coordinated with the groom’s calla lily boutonniere.

The groom gave his groomsmen personalized baseball bats as attendant gifts.

Ceremony was set at Paradise Cove, with a gorgeous lake backdrop, bamboo rattan chairs, and cypress trees and tall urn arrangements framing the altar. The aisle was accented with a monogrammed runner and shepards hooks with mini daisies in the bride’s fall theme of colors.

Guests howled when the groom accidentally dropped the bride’s ring in the sand. But their love of the couple only grew with the mishap. (Note to brides: Marriage isn’t perfect either!)

After ceremony, guests were greeted by caramel apples with paper leaves that enclosed guests’ names and table numbers.

Cocktail hour was set with a cigar roller, jazz duo, Arthur’s Catering passed appetizers, a stunning lake sunset, and twinkling lights overhead.

Guests entered a reception pavilion covered with twinkle lights, chocolates, and burnt oranges. The low multi-colored arrangements by Flourish were accented with cracked glass candelabras and tons of votive candles for extra romance. Zoet Cakes delicious confection was accented in coordinating fall florals…

For fun we brought in a photo booth along with a tiki torch/ribbon display area with clothes pins so guests could display their film.

We had trouble keeping the adorable flowergirl out of the PhotoMagic photo booth.

As guests feet began to swell from dancing to the Leonard Brothers, they migrated to our beach lounge with sofas, fire pit, cigar roller, and smores station. For a fun touch, Kaleidiscope added the couple's monogram to the sand.
