So, we may not literally be royalty here in the heart of the Bluegrass, but we sure do have access to equistite places to host our own royal wedding. Castle Post in Versailles, KY is the perfect place to host a royal wedding inspired by the Brisitsh Royals. Another thing that we have to offer here in Lexington is carriage rentals, the perfect accessory for a wedding fit for a princess! What are your ideas to make a royal wedding take place in Lexington? Let us know at One Fine Day
Hello everyone! Hope you all are having a good week so far! So something that has been on our mind quite a lot, is the anticipation of what Kate Middleton will be wearing this Saturday when she marries Prince Williams. We picked a few of our favorites that we think would be amazing and fit for a princess. The first is a sketch by Monique Lhuillier and the second is a gown by Vera Wang. Will she cover up but still be fashionable? There is a lot to consider! What are your thoughts on what the Princess will wear?
Hope everyone is anxiously awaiting the Royal Wedding as we are here at One Fine Day!
Thought this was a neat idea to share. Castle Rock Brewery in England has created a beer, Kiss Me Kate, just for the royal wedding day, said to be distinctly British. While this may be a treat for the royals and those intrested in the wedding, we thought it would be fun to use for your own wedding! It is a creative way of incorporating your personal style by either creating a label specific to your names or personality, or even creating your own brew of beer specific to your tatse buds! It is a cute and personal detail that your guests will be sure to rememeber. What insiprations will you take away from the royal wedding?
Happy Friday Everyone! Hope you all are looking forward to a great weekend and celebrating Easter. Here is a centerpiece idea for your Easter table, SO fun! Thanks to Hostess with the Mostess Blog for the inspiration!
I'm also loving these Cake Pop Chicks available at Martine's in Lexington! Precious!

Just wanted to share a few tidbits and ideas about signature drinks, which are so fun! We strongly encourage all of our brides to have a signature drink and here's a few reasons why:
--It brings more personal detail to the wedding (which we LOVE)...and you can even name it something super special - for example 'Rachel's Rita.' or the "blushing bride" You can even create the bride's signature drink and the groom's signature drink.
--If guests are greeted with a signature drink, oftentimes it means they don't need to head straight to the bar (which doesn't back up the bar line).
--Signature drinks are additional ways to incorporate your wedding colors. For example if one of your wedding colors was blue, we could make the margaritas blue!
--The catering/bar staff can also pre-make lots of the signature drinks to disperse them quickly through your guests - we don't want to leave any guests empty handed!

Below is a great idea for a Kentucky Wedding Signature Drink, a Rose 'Rita! Try it out - you'll be sure to enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 parts Margarita Mix
1 part Four Roses Yellow Label Bourbon
Instructions:
--Mix over ice.
--Add a dash of grenadine. Do not mix. The red color will settle near the bottom of the glass for a nice multi-color effect representing roses!
--Garnish with two maraschino cherries and enjoy!
