One that we did had a tropical feel to it. We put a wading pool in the middle of the living room & covered on the outside & inside w/black fabric, cellophane, & those glass beads to make it look like a lagoon or black bottomed pool. We then put a cute fountain in the middle of it so it looks like a waterfall (w/no running water obviously). We had the PNM's sit in a circle around it while we stood behind the PNM's. We also gave them lei's to wear during the ceremony. We had a senior give a reading about her time at Sigma Kappa & we sang songs like "You're My Sister, You're My Friend", "Love", and "Sigma Kappa We've A Song to Sing". It's very moving & we had a lot of PNM's cry. There's more to it than just this but I don't want to post the rest of the details. If you want to know them, just PM me & I'll give them to you.

Oh, outside, we decorated w/candles in votives & white lights. The tables had white linen tablecloths & other decorations. The whole feel was elegant & classy.

EDIT: I think I still have the directions, instructions for Pref for when we did it. I live in Long Beach so I can easily mail them to you if you like.
