Napkin Rings!
As you may very well know, we here at Premiere are all about re-inventing ourselves, over and over again. In this industry it is very important to be able to stay on top of the trends and be able to give your event holders exactly what they want. Well, you asked for it, and now you’ve got it! Below are just a few pictures of some of the new napkin rings we are offering to you, our loyal customers and clients. The best part is this….these are not all! We will have more new napkin rings for you shortly, made with colored rope, and they will be 100% customizable. What does that mean, you ask? It means bring us a swatch or any color fabric, and we will match it.
Too good to be true, you say? Think again! Stay Tuned for more details!

Black, Brown, Copper, Gold, Purple, Sea Blue, Silver, and White Napkin Rings -
Quince Show
Well, another Quince show has come and gone, and this was one of the most amazing shows we have done. How exciting! We were able to debut our new featured Vibrant Oversized Thrones, and the good reviews came pouring in! It is times like this that makes what we do so exciting. We are always happy to be able to dress [the tables] to impress! Let us know what you think about the new featured chairs. They are sure to make your little prince or princess feel like King or Queen for their special day! If you are interested, stop by the SOUTH showroom for a trial-sitting! We have them on display, and the best part is, they come in 10+ colors!

September Bridal Show
Well, another bridal show has come and gone, and as always, it was a lot of fun! Our Creative Director, Ken Sharples, put together a new and “Fresh” look to display our rentals. And he did not disappoint! Here are a few featured pictures from the show, that showcase some of the new items we are promoting:
This purple table is a beautiful example of how one of our *NEW* Boutique linen offerings can transform a table. This particular linen is called Glitter Lavender Sequins, and can be found by browsing our Boutique Collection through LinenBook.com.
This table also shows how we can specially customize Chiavari’s for you! Just one of the new services we offer is painting Chiavari’s ANY COLOR YOU WANT. For $20 a chair, this is the perfect way to finish off a head table, color-coordinate a dinner party, or really make your sweetheart table POP!
Beautiful florals by WOW Factor Design:

Busy Season
It’s been another big week at Premiere. We’re preparing for Sunday’s Bridal Extravaganza and assisting other vendors with tables, chairs, linens and more for their presentations as well. We’ll be promoting our Chair Sale at this event, and providing details that will appear in this space on Monday.
Next week also marks the “official” start of Fall Open House season. Premiere is supporting The Winfield Inn (www.thewinfieldinn.com), Texas Old Town (www.texasoldtown.com), The Terrace Club (www.theterraceclub.com) and Creekside (www.austincreekside.com) Open House events in the coming days. More information on Open Houses scheduled in and around the Kyle / Buda area, as well as in other parts of the City, can always be found at http://www.austinweddings.com (The Austin Wedding Day web site). In addition to visiting our showroom, you can see Premiere’s staff, and our rental products, at these and other great venues throughout Austin !
Just a word to those of you with events scheduled in October and November. If you haven’t placed a rental order with Premiere yet, You Should ! Today if you can ! ! Demand peaks in these months, and to be sure your first choices are available, come into one of our showrooms ASAP. Make your selections and place an order. Remember, you can never be too early, you can only be too late . . . and there’s nothing to risk by placing your order early (you can make any change in your rental order, including cancellation without penalty, up to 5 working days before delivery or 3 working days before customer pick up) and everything to gain (peace of mind being most important !). We’ll be here to help throughout the busy season, but you’ll be doing yourself a huge favor by taking care of your Fall and Holiday rental needs sooner, rather than later.
Thanks for reading, and see you at the show on Sunday. -

Website Updates and Announcements!
We’re almost there . . . seriously. On Wednesday evening, Premiere held a launch party to demo the new and improved Premiere web site. It’s gorgeous! Light, bright, pretty, inspiring, informative and fun. Below is a *sample* of what you can come to expect:
The site virtually displays our entire inventory (at least as it was in mid-August), including Premiere’s impressive linen collection. Thanks to Royal Fig Catering (www.royalfig.com) for the delightful meal, and for previewing their new Small Plates menu for Premiere’s staff and our enchanted guests. Thanks also to the Cup Cake Bar for the delectable dessert (www.cupcakebaraustin.com). For all of you who joined us, thanks for coming. And for those of you couldn’t, no worries . . . we’ll be sending out a notice when the new site goes live, hopefully early in the coming week. Special thanks to the Premiere North staff, who did such an amazing job with the showroom preparations, and to John-John, as usual, for keeping everyone “happy” throughout the evening. Part of that happy glow was the result of “The Waiter”, a signature drink created for the evening (by Carrie Montoya, Event and Tent Rental Specialist) and enjoyed by many of those who attended. Ingredients included Sloe Gin, Midori, Dripping Springs Vodka and pineapple juice – – – yummy ! Our newest Team Member, Emily Knapp, had just arrived in Austin,
but was able to be a part of the evening’s festivities as well. Look for next week’s press release featuring Emily’s story. We’ll also be posting pix next week of the Website Launch, so look for those as well.Today, we’re getting ready for our Monday Management and Event Professional staff training session. Our showrooms will be closed on Monday, but our warehouses are open and our delivery staff will be making deliveries and picking up weekend rentals. I’ve made revisions to our Management and Operating Handbook that strengthen our quality control procedures and enhance our overall performance. We’ll be talking about some of those changes on Monday in an interactive, fast-paced session that should be both enjoyable and educational. I love writing and teaching, so perhaps I missed my “true calling”. But doing those things in the context of the special events industry is particularly gratifying, so perhaps it’s a good match after all.
One more thing, then I’m done for today. The Texas Star is hosting the Wedding Industry Olympic games, sponsored by Amy Mader of NEAWP (Nuptial Essentials Association of Wedding Professionals) fame. The games start at 11:00 Wednesday, and for this month, the games take the place of the regular NEAWP meeting. If you’re in the industry and have never attended this competition, it’s truly an experience. For details or more information, or to be part of team and take part in the games, you can contact Premiere at (512) 292-3900 or get visit the NEAWP web site at www.nuptialessentials.com.
