Make Your Wedding Creative, Original & Unique with a CUSTOM Song Made for YOU!

12/5/2017

 
Picture
We LOVE love here at My Big Day and we LOVE everything about weddings. Often when interviewing couples we ask them to describe their vision for the day and what they are most looking forward to. Most everyone wants their day to be original, unique, and memorable!

We've worked with a gal who can give couples that original and memorable element you are looking for on your Big Day.

Meet our friend, Sharon Glassman!

Picture
Colorado weddings are beautifully unique. My name is Sharon Glassman. I create custom wedding songs that celebrate your Big Day in a uniquely personal way.
 
My happy, original love songs have a Colorado acoustic sound that pairs beautifully with the setting and your special wedding day.
I call my songs Smile Songs because the music, lyrics and mood of each song makes folks smile. (And cry happy tears sometimes, too.)
Here’s how I create your custom wedding song:

   1     We chat in a friendly, easy way, about your life, your love story, your wedding plans. Your dreams. Anything you’d like to share and celebrate! How you met, where you got engaged. Your dog’s name. Favorite pizza. Mountain. Or flower. Sentimental is great. Serious rocks. Silly’s great, too. It’s all about you.
 
   2     Next? I write an original acoustic song that celebrates moments. Words. Images you’re shared.
 
          Instrumentation can be pure and simple as me and my guitar. I can also add mandolin, fiddle, bass and harmony vocals.
 
   3     Then: I record your song for you and deliver it as a high quality mp3. You can add it to your DJs set list. Play it during your wedding ceremony. Or first dance.

I also design personalized Smile Songs wedding song posters and art print. They play your song when you scan the QR code in the design! Great event artwork and to enjoy at home.
 
          Here are some of my love songs and singing poster designs. I’d love to work with you to create a unique, custom wedding song that sings to your heart and ears.

Thoughtful Gifts for Today's College Grad

5/31/2015

Pinterest Board
-by Randi Juric

Graduation season is upon us.  It often comes quicker than you think.

College graduates have many needs in order to prepare for their new life.  Here are a few ideas for awesome presents most graduates need.

We know they will always need reliable transportation to and from college or their new career. New or used -- a car is always a great gift and much appreciated.

Another much needed present is professional wardrobe.  It’s often tough enough getting a job as a new college graduate,  so first impressions should be outstanding.  

Some people are the sentimental type and love getting frames or shadow boxes of memories you collected from their friends to put together.

Finally the most coveted gift by grads is money. Oh yes, money. You can give the gift of money in a number of creative ways.

Visit the My Big Day Graduation Pinterest Board for plenty of gift ideas!

My Big Day.

Pre-Dinner: Champagne and Strawberries
Why:
A sexy appetizer to get your taste buds ready.

Drink: A glass of red wine
Why: Grape skins contain the antioxidant resveratrol, the closest thing we have to an actual aphrodisiac. It increases estrogen production, say Northwestern University researchers, and that heightens sexual appetite and makes lubrication easier for her later in the evening.  Red wines from muscadine grapes have a higher resveratrol content than other reds do, say researchers at Mississippi State University.

Appetizer: Shrimp cocktail
Why: The zinc-dense shrimp increase sperm levels and make orgasms more powerful, according to a study in Fertility and Sterility. They also contain a stress-reducing amino acid and the feel-good hormone serotonin.

Entrée: Filet mignon au poivre (6 oz) (Garlic, ginger, mustard, pepper rub, porcini mushrooms)

Why: High-protein foods boost production of dopamine and norepinephrine, hormones that increase alertness and assertiveness.
Black pepper aids digestion, according to an Indian Journal of Medical Research study -- helpful for any energetic activities after dinner.

Side: Baked sweet potato
Why: It's high in potassium, which helps reduce stress--a great way to curb performance anxiety later that night.
Top the potato with a dollop of sour cream, another source of libido-friendly protein.

Side: Spinach salad
(Spinach, Arugula, Pine nuts, Basil Vinaigrette, Parmesan cheese, carrots )
Why: Spinach is a potent source of magnesium, which helps dilate blood vessels, ensuring the smooth bloodflow that's crucial for strong erections, according to Japanese researchers.

Dessert: Fresh raspberries drizzled with melted dark chocolate
Why: British scientists have discovered that women release four times more endorphins after eating chocolate than they do after making out. The caffeine in chocolate also increases your alertness for what's to come after dessert. Try using Dark Chocolate on the raspberries, and pair them with a glass of port. You'll get a double dose of polyphenols -- antioxidants that increase your HDL (good) cholesterol.

Holiday Party Games for Your Company Party -- Part Two

12/3/2014

 
-by Jessica Weimer
 

Looking for some holiday party games that don’t make your employees cringe? My Big Day has compiled a list of our favorite Holiday party games for you to try this year at your company party! They are guaranteed to make sure your employees have a good time!
Picture
5) Holiday Card Game.
This is a great holiday party game if you are in a smaller group that can be broken up into two teams. You can even add a fun twist and do men verse woman. Our favorite is a holiday trivia game, where you ask questions about Christmas or Christmas themed things and then the 2 teams are competing for the most questions answered correctly. You’ll be surprised with things you didn’t know about!


6) Paper Plate game.
This is always a pleaser at baby showers but can be a great game for your company party! Have each guest get a paper plate and pen. Start by placing the plate on top of your head and then have the players draw something Christmas themed, such as an ornament or a gift box, nothing too hard. They will have to draw this without looking and on top of their head. Whoever draws the item closest to what it was supposed to look like wins!


Picture

7) White Elephant gifts are always a fun addition to any party.
You have the choice of theming them to be funny or as simple as everyone bringing a $10 gift card from somewhere. This encourages guests to swap out gift cards all night and see which of the best ones they can collect! If you do a themed white elephant, such as bring your favorite movie, this is fun because no one knows what they are getting! You start by having the wrapped gift and then picking from a stack. Once you pick you unwrap and see what you got, but the next person who picks can either steal yours or grab a new one! This is a fun way for employees to interact.


8) Gaming can be a really fun time for your employees as well as fit a casino theme perfectly! This could involve fake money and cash in for certain company prizes. This would get everyone involved and having a good time. Definitely not your typical holiday party!

Holiday Party Games For Your Company Party - Part One

11/27/2014

 
-by Jessica Weimer
 

Looking for some holiday party games that don’t make your employees cringe? My Big Day has compiled a list of our favorite Holiday party games for you to try this year at your company party! They are guaranteed to make sure your employees have a good time!


1.  Scavenger Hunt. This can be a perfect activity if done in the right venue and with the right clues. If you are choosing to host a Holiday party in a downtown area with businesses around you, this is a perfect game. You would need to gather your employees into groups and give them a list of what they are searching for. This could be as simple as someone wearing a Christmas sweater or it could have a fun twist on it such as take a picture with a Santa. This will get your employees working as a team and also give them an activity that is fun and playful.

2.  Piñata for Adults. While this may sound wildly inappropriate for a adult company party, it is surprisingly fun and entertaining for the older crowd. Get a standard piñata and fill it will fun adult prizes such as, $5 bills, gift cards and full size candy bars. Pass around the bat and watch as grown-ups take a swing and have a great time!
3.  Employee Trivia. This is crowd pleasing game that most any company can do. Ask your employees to submit two facts about themselves, the funnier the better! Then at the party give the guest’s sheets of paper with the facts grouped together so throughout the night they are trying to guess who said what! At the end compile the scores and see who won. You wouldn’t need to read which facts went to each person if they’d be uncomfortable with that
Picture

4.  Name that Christmas song. This game is popular because it works! Give employees sheets of paper and start by playing traditional holiday songs. As you play the short clips the employees must guess which holiday song you just played. The one who answers the most correct wins!
