Last Friday's meeting at Classic Party Rentals was SO fun! Their showroom is definitely a funhouse for us Florists, wedding coordinators, and brides-to-be. Since CPR is also a Sponsor for the upcoming BAWN (Bay Area Wedding Network)'s First Quarter Event, we collaborated and came up with "I-got-the-chills" ideas for the ceremony scene we'll be doing on the 11th Floor of the Crystal Lounge at the Marine's Memorial Club & Hotel (the venue and also another Sponsor for this Event). We decided to play off the floor-to-ceiling gold-trimmed, rich red-velvety curtains in the Crystal Lounge with rows of striped red-and-gold cushioned gold chivari chairs. Hanging from them will be containers of the same striped fabric (to be made from matching napkins) filled with white flowers. A crisp white aisle runner will lead up to the ceremony area, which will be placed a narrow-sleek table, draped with gold fabric. Atop this table will be three tall vases/or one larger vase of red dogwood branches. I'm still undecided whether to have pops of white blooms tied/hung/tubed from the branches or various sizes of vases of lush white flowers lining down the table.
You probably noticed the trend of WHITE FLOWERS here, and that is also where we had the "I-got-the-chills" moment, when we decided to use only white flowers, as it is the trend for this year to go white-white-white and all white. And it works perfectly for this room as it completely pops from the rich reds and golds.

It was a pleasure collaborating with you on this event! “I-got-chills!” too!!! I’ve heard nothing but positive comments about Tuesday night’s event. You are definitely and artist and your transformation of our napkin into a holder was GENIUS! I look forward to collaboration on events together in the future! - Gwen Ortiz (CPR)
