This is so exciting! About a month ago, Emily Walters from Middle of the Map Weddings and Emmy Ray Floral Design, asked me if Ultrapom would be interested in providing table runners for a photoshoot at Mr & Mrs for a spread in KC Weddings Magazine. Of course I said yes! Emily chose our gray […]

Inspiration - Apothecary Jars
28 December 2011 - 8:20 am
Apothecary jars are great base pieces for making centerpieces or dessert tables (though I apparently didn’t include any dessert tables with apothecary jars in my dessert table post. Odd. Duly rectified in this post!) They also could be used to hold silverware, guestbook papers, or favors. There’s an awesome terrarium centerpiece shown below, which is […]
Inspiration - Winter Holidays
21 December 2011 - 7:34 am
With Hannukah starting last night and Christmas right around the corner, I thought it would be great to do an inspiration post based on beautiful winter holiday decorations. Our vintage metal, brass collection, and milk glass would be right at home in any of these photos! I hope you have a great holiday season! image […]
Client Wedding - Leah and Josh
15 December 2011 - 7:34 am
I had the pleasure of working with Leah and her mom, Sharon, on Leah and Josh’s wedding this past September. I met Leah and Sharon at the ReEvent, where I had half of the chuppah for my own wedding up as part of my display. They were looking for something a lot like my chuppah, […]
Inspiration - Mason Jars
13 December 2011 - 7:15 am
Oh my, mason jars in weddings are popular. There have been manifestos written about mason jars in weddings, and responses to those manifestos. I have already blogged about mason jars, twice. But really, saying ‘mason jars are popular’ is kind of like saying ‘glass cylinders are popular.’ They’re just a base on which you create […]
Inspiration - Wood Decor
6 December 2011 - 7:28 am
Wood bowls and other wood items were some of the first items I bought for rental when I started Ultrapom. I thought they would make great vessels for centerpieces. Since then, I’ve added several more wood bowls and trays, a rustic wood planter and natural wood candlesticks. I would love to add the square wood […]
Client Wedding - Hitched Weddings + Events
1 December 2011 - 7:15 am
This client wedding is a bit different than the other week’s post, because the ‘client’ is another wedding vendor - Jessica and Amy of Hitched Weddings + Events ! Amy and Jessica first contacted me to provide the pedestals featured in the images below. Since then, we have worked together on several more weddings. I […]

Thankful
23 November 2011 - 5:41 pm
This year has brought so many blessings to me. Personally, I got to spend time with my grandfather before he passed, reconnect with friends after living far away for so long, and bought a house with my husband. Professionally, I started Ultrapom Event Rentals in April, fulfilling my entrepreneurial spirit doing something I love, and […]
Inspiration - Thanksgiving Tables
22 November 2011 - 9:42 am
Thanksgiving table decorations are a great inspiration source for autumn weddings, and there is an abundance of images out there right now to enjoy. I have a partiality to the autumn color palette, so I love looking at all the creative things people do for their thanksgiving feast table! This week, I’ve tried something a […]
Inspiration - Milk Glass II
15 November 2011 - 7:30 am
It’s been awhile since I did an inspiration post on milk glass, and in the meantime, I have added extensively to the collection of milk glass I have for rent. Since I have accumulated quite a few images of milk glass on a Pinterest board, I thought it was time for another milk glass inspiration […]
Client Wedding - Mindy and Jim
10 November 2011 - 7:39 am
Today is my first post showcasing a client’s wedding using Ultrapom rental items! I met the bride, Mindy, at the ReEvent last May, and was one of my first clients. It was great to work with her, first because she’s kind and easy to work with, and second because the vision she had for her […]
Chuppahs and Arches Galore!
2 November 2011 - 7:17 am
I just sourced the material to make the chuppah I’ve been wanting to add to the collection for months - a birch chuppah! The image below is what we are using for our inspiration: image source: Style Me Pretty And in the process, we will be making a birch arch as well, for […]
Inspiration - Green Glass
1 November 2011 - 7:15 am
Green glass is a great base for white, burgundy, pink, yellow, or green flowers . It seems like most people pair it with white or green flowers, but I think it looks fantastic with a deep deep burgundy or wine colored dahlia. We have a great collection of green glass for rent, and if you […]
Inspiration - Patterned Table Runners
19 October 2011 - 7:28 am
Don’t be afraid of using patterns in your wedding! Patterns add interest and texture to your design and can break up the monotony of large blocks of color. Patterned table runners are a great way to add inexpensive pops of color to white table linens. Additionally, not a whole lot of people are incorporating patterns […]
Inspiration - Autumn
12 October 2011 - 7:23 am
Oh Autumn! I wish I was a Fall bride, but alas we got married in June…ah well. I love the autumn color palette, with oranges and silvery blues, ivories and burgandy. This week’s inspiration is a doozy - lots of photos that I hope give you some great ideas! Ultrapom has some great items for […]
Re-Use at the Re-Event
7 October 2011 - 12:54 pm
While I OF COURSE want you to rent decor items from Ultrapom Event Rental, I also want to let you know about an event coming up in Kansas City that is another great resource for eco-conscious/thrifty brides. It’s called the Re-Event, a consignment sale for gently used event stuff & other upcycled items. You may […]
Inspiration - Paper Flower Arches
4 October 2011 - 7:42 am
If you love color, then this is the inspiration post for you! Decorations made out of paper provide such a pop of color in the design scheme, particularly when you use solid colored paper. To balance out all of that strong color, try pairing the paper decorations with other decorations that are in subdued colors […]
