General Pool Party Tips

Safety is paramount when it comes to pool parties, especially when they involve children.  Be sure to provide enough supervision.  Before letting a child dip one foot in the water, educate him or her about the rules of playing in water.  This includes not running around the pool and not pushing others into the pool. Safety also requires providing protection from the sun rays with sunblock and sunglasses.

Remind guests to bring their own towels and swimsuits, as well as a change of clothing, if necessary. 

Keep the food light, as guests will be swimming. Keep hydrated, especially during the summer, with water, juices and teas. 

Add music, games and food and the party is sure to create a splash.

General Sporting Event Tips

When checking off the list of things to do for planning a sports party, there is one thing one must make a top priority: the food.  Munching on snacks during a sporting event is as second nature to sports fans as cheering for their favorite teams.  Party favorites such as pizza, wings, burgers, chips, crackers and sandwiches are one's best bet to winning the crowd over.  
While costume parties are fun, limit them to birthdays and other events.  Sports events should focus on just that.  Show your team spirit with a jersey or T-shirt, and, as some fanatics, with a foam finger and face/body paint.
Organizing a sporting event that generates fans of its own requires the same amount of patient and determination as playing a sport.  One must also be organized.  Plan the event ahead of time to allow ample time for marketing and fundraising if needed.  Reach out to friends, family and the media for help in those areas.  Round up volunteers and train them well. Offer incentives to motivate them. 
When hosting an event at a venue, keep in mind the estimated attendance and occupancy limits.

General Picnic/Luncheon/BBQ's Tips

Pack a basket-full of picnic favorites, such as cheeses, sandwiches, fruit, muffins, pastries, chips and crackers.  Go traditional with basket, or chose a practical carrier, such as a cooler or large lunch box. 
Don't forget the essentials, such as a blanket, insect repellant, eating utensils, napkins, garbage bags, corkscrew or bottle opener, sunscreen, condiments.   Keep a first aid kit in the car just in case. Make the picnic more comfortable with cushions, an umbrella, and lawn chairs. Most parks have regularly-watered grass, so the ground may be wet.  Bring a tarp to spread out under the blanket to ensure a dry sitting area. 
Separate cold foods from hot foods.  If possible, bring a separate container for each.  Carry perishable food in a cooler.  
Choose a spot with enough privacy to relax and spend quality time together.   Protect yourself from sunburn with a shaded area or an umbrella.

Arriving at the perfect wedding face

Wedding gown:  $800.  Venue: $8,000.  Hair: $100.  Flowers: $3500.  The perfect face?  Priceless!   The flowers will wither away, the reception will be just a blur, the shoes will never be worn again, but your face will live on forever in your wedding photos and is NOT the place to skimp.  Finding a good makeup artist can be tricky.  Finding one to come to you can be even worse, especially if they are miles away.  Many brides have tried cutting corners and have been very disappointed, even tearful just hours or minutes before they are due to leave for the ceremony.  I always recommend a pre-consult so you will have the peace of mind knowing you will love your lipstick color and your artist knows exactly how dramatic or smoky you want your eyes to look. 

Getting to the look you're looking for should be no challenge if you have an experienced, well trained artist.  You definitely want real photos of brides that have used and recommended the vendor.  You want to know what the backup plan is if an emergency arrives.  You want to feel that she/he is really listening intently to you and won't just give you their version of how you should look.  If you are fortunate enough to find a makeup artist who is trained in undertone and/or color analysis, you will have the confidence of knowing they are not just going to put colors on you that looked good on your maid of honor, or just happen to be one of the few colors they keep on hand,  To look spectacular in front of your guests, and in front of the camera, you NEED to be in your correct palette of cosmetic colors. 

Be it cool, warm or neutral, they need to be chosen correctly.  Don't fall into the temptation of accepting the offer from your bridesmaid to do your makeup that day because although she may be gorgeous in peaches and browns, they may pull all the color from your cool undertone.  Be careful of people who enjoy playing with makeup and advertise themselves as a makeup artist.  Many hair stylists will even tell you up front that hair is their talent and they leave the makeup for someone else with that talent.  I have seen many people offer their "makeup service" who are really not experienced, trained, or understand the importance of sanitation when working with cosmetics on multiple people. 

Your photos should be a happy reminder of your wedding day and not a bad memory of cutting corners in the wrong place.
