Learn How to Make Any Occasion Shine!
Have you ever attended a party so clever it had you talking for days? Or received an invitation that made you feel like royalty? Were you ever given a gift so "you" that you never forgot it? Make It Memorable is an A to Z thematically organized resource for making the most of every special occasion and highlighting the little things in life. From anniversaries and birthdays through weddings and zero-cost ideas, it includes:
- It was a very good year! For a special anniversary, select bottles of wine with vintages from special years for the couple---the year they met, the year they married, etc.
- A blast from the past! For a memorable birthday for an old friend, rent a limo and take a tour down memory lane---past the birthday girl's high school, first house, etc., reminiscing as you go.
- Love is in bloom! For a garden party shower theme, have each guest bring a plant. Distribute the plants around the room to create your own greenhouse atmosphere for the bride.
- A to-do bag just for you! For a get-well present, create a to-do bag filled with things your friend can do while recuperating. You can include everything from favorite missed shows on videotape to assorted magazines and goodies.
- Plus fabulous favors, inviting invitations, party ideas, dazzling centerpieces, memorable gifts, unforgettable weddings, and much more!
Gift-giving expert Robyn Spizman has packed Make It Memorable with the most creative ideas under the sun for enlivening every party, event, and occasion with a touch of pizzazz.

Too simplistic, Nov 5 2008

This review is from: Make It Memorable: An A-Z Guide to Making Any Event, Gift or Occasion...Dazzling! (Paperback)
I have been planning parties for years and do a lot with my family and wanted some new and fresh ideas. I was disappointed with this book. The ideas were unimagative and bland and I did not get one good idea from this book. If you are already creative person this book is not for you. Maybe it would be good for someone less creative. It made me think that I should write a book myself.

Not What I Expected, Sep 23 2008

This review is from: Make It Memorable: An A-Z Guide to Making Any Event, Gift or Occasion...Dazzling! (Paperback)
While the author covers just about every tip imaginable; the book seemed like more of an appetizer than anything. The author gives brief descriptions but does not really go into much depth. I was looking for more detail and just did not quite feel like I got it from this book. It was more of a teaser. I may have pulled one or two ideas from the book overall, but there was really no sizzle for me.
