<br />
we hope everyone is getting their new year off to a great start. here at c.t.d we've been doing a bit of traveling and working hard with our new 2014 brides and clients. all this traveling has inspired us to post a series on honeymoon destinations. specifically; cool weather vs. warm weather.<br />
<br />
we recently just returned from a cool, but lovely holiday in Paris, France. I'm not sure that there is a better way to celebrate your newly minted marriage than traipsing around the city of light together. but, this still leaves us with the question- would you rather be chilled and cozying up in Paris, or tan and warm on a beach?<br />
<br />
<br />
send us your feedback and comment on your ideal honeymoon destination below!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. work with your theme! do you have a nautical theme? ok, well let's use some oars and captain hats as props. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. include pre-made signage or a chalkboard so your guests can share a personal message. you'll look back on it and laugh at their creativity!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3. make your booth custom by creating your own back drop. you can choose your own design and theme and run with it. here are some tips from <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/entertaining/how-to-set-up-your-own-diy-photo-booth/index.html" target="_blank">HGTV</a>. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">4. turn it into a competition! the couple or group with the most hysterical and creative posing could win a prize or just the award of being the best photo-boother's out there at the end of the night. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">here are some shots of photo-booths we've created over the years. enjoy! </span><br />
