Effile tower inspired centerpiece | Paris theme centerpiece

Many are inspired by the french and the level of sophisticated elegance
the french bring to the table. In the design world we look to the
french for inspiration to incorporate the details in our weddings and designs.
From Paris, Effile tower, country side, Versailles, Marie Antoinette are
 few of the many ideas that can be incorporated in a design.

Versailles, Marie Anntionette, Vintage and Romantic

 and you will see ArtQuest's rendition of design.

We selected the infamous Effile tower and decided the wrap
the tower with crisp white phaleonopsis orchids.
As much as I wanted to design with roses(which I designed HERE)
I used orchids, as they are a blend of sophistication and elegance.
We paired this centerpiece with a soft lavender satin linen, chargers
flatware and stemware from our personal collection.

This would be perfect for a Bridal shower, Wedding or Baby shower.
I recorded a video of this table setting 

on my Instagram which you can see HERE.

White Short Centerpiece

I love a beautiful lush white centerpiece.

It's a timeless classic and you can never go wrong with this choice.

We paired this lovely centerpieces with orchids, peonies and roses

with a lovely linen from our very own collection.

I most definitely love the clean white lines of a white centerpieces.

However, on the other hand I always debate if adding some

color would bring more warmth to the table??

I let you decide.

Do you prefer a simple monochromatic centerpieces like this one

OR

a centerpieces that brings more warmth to the table

with hints of some colors with some blush roses.

Elizabeth and Zach's Wedding at NTC.

A lovely white wedding to start of the week.

This is Elizabeth and Zach's wedding we designed 

with white hydrangea blooms, full open roses 

and phalaenopsis orchids.

Elizabeth carried a red rose bouquet with calla lilies

embellished with a beautiful broach. 

We used rustic urns for the ceremony with orchid 

cascading to give a beautiful elegant look.

At the reception we used black candelabras to 

give a rustic yet chic and elegant look for this wedding.

The candelabras were embellished with black jewels.

Beautiful white rosette linens from with black chargers from 

our private collection adorned the tables. 

Candle light is very important and so to give that extra 

special touch we wrapped every 

pillar candle in exquisite black lace.

Christie Gowdy from Basic Black Weddings and Events planned this 

wedding beautifully. You must check out their website 

as she recently re-branded.

Its always a pleasure to work with you Christie. 

Pearls and Orchids. 

Be it Christmas or anytime of the year, this all classic white 

centerpiece with orchids and pearls will never go out of style. 

Trends might come and go, but the classics will always stay.

Beautiful white roses, hydrangeas and orchids paired with

pearls and a vase embellished with miniature crystals stands 

tall and elegant. 

A new day, a new design!

I have been trying to drift towards the non-conventional 

centerpiece recently. A traditional tall centerpiece with a

well rounded design is beautiful. However, more and more clients 

I am meeting now a days, want something different.

A different look and style without straying away from the norm.

So I came up with this piece where I used fluffy white hydrangea blooms, 

dainty and elegant calla lilies, full open exquisite soft pink peonies, 

white phalaenopsis and cymbidium orchids.

All the same flowers but a different design.

Like they say "beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder"

We used a simple white love seat covered with a pewter faux fur

to change up the design. 

For 2013, I predict either sequin or faux fur will hit it big.
