In our continuing effort to offer the top wedding rentals in mobile, al we have decided to remake our website and give it a cleaner look, and hopefully easier navigation for our guests. We are also focusing on our SOHO Blog and are in the middle of making this page more interactive with various feeds and widgets, to hopefully showcase the various rentals for events that we have done. Although we are located in Daphne, Al, one question we continually get is "do you deliver and/or setup wedding rentals in Mobile" - ABSOLUTELY! (p.s. we also deliver wedding rentals in pensacola:) In the coming weeks we will post some photos of a wedding that we are doing at the Mobile Museum of Art.
Double Slip and Slide
Waterville USA party at home?
This weekend our double slip and slide was providing hours of fun for a birthday party in Bay Minette. When we arrived to pick it up the boy told us how much fun his birthday party was and all his friends had so much fun. YEAH! Finally as we were thanking the parents for choosing us amongst all the competition and the dad said they actually were planning on going to Waterville USA, but it was cheaper and closer (@home) for them to call SOHO and have the party at their house.
Natural Pergola or Arbor?
in Wedding
So we got a call this week from a local wedding planner in Daphne who was working on a rustic / farmhouse wedding at The Grand Hotel in Fairhope and was looking for a rustic pergola to help transform the space and complement the farmhouse tables. The wedding was supposed to be outdoors but there was rain coming in and they made a rain call to move the reception inside the ballroom and needed some help.
We were asked to build this pergola 10' x 10' and 10 feet tall! By far the biggest pergola we had done so far, and if you look at the above picture you can see the guy standing next to it for reference.
We did a layering painting effect to create a weathered barnboard look on this new wood (we'll post closer detail pics later). The planner is going to hang 5 chandeliers throughout the pergola and then the cake table will be in the center.
Can't wait to see the photos with the cake stand set and lights dimmed!
After posting a picture, we got a call from Gulf Shores to use this as a beach wedding arbor, YEAH!
Does anybody know the difference between a pergola and arbor? If yes, please post in comments - thanks:)
25 Wedding Tips from Newlyweds
in Wedding
We are always looking for good tips for our clients and we recently found an article of wedding tips from newlyweds which we think can provide good insight.
#1 on the list - Take your time
"Matt and I planned our wedding for sixteen months, and it really helped to keep stress levels down. We got tons of stuff done early and had time to save for the things we really wanted. You only get to plan your wedding once, so make sure it is a fun time, not a stressful one!" —Claire and Matt
This is great advice, and we encourage clients to do the same. This is a very special time for the couple and you want to make sure it is fun and enjoyable.
Follow this link to Bridal Guide for more of the great tips from newlyweds, or you can call or send us a message on our contact page and we can give you advice for local wedding planners, local photographers,local florists, weather, etc. We primarily work in Daphne, Fairhope, Gulf Shores, and Orange Beach, but our work also takes us to Mobile, and Pensacola often.
