 We first worked with Pleasanton Rentals to bring in the items to complete the table.   The Burgundy Rosette linen was beyond luxury.  To create the Asian modern vibe we placed black satin napkins on top of the glass beaded chargers.  The matching chair pad against the black chavari was a detail that few people think about.  The flowers where all one type of rare orchid in a beautiful raspberrycolor that burst into fireworks on top of a glass pilsner vase with black rocks. 

Unveiled out of Walnut Creek came in and embellished the table with menu cards, place cards, table name and Chinese takeout boxes with burgundy ribbon as favors.

On Friday June 11 at The Palm Event Center in Pleasanton, CA we were privilage to be a part of Stacie and Tony’s wedding.  Stacie loved the color of yellow and her father brought me cases of lemons to use as part of the decor.

The flowers used were white hydrangea, bright yellow roses, yellow gerbera daisies, yellow buttons and spray roses.

The low arrangements had 5 lemons tucked into the arrangemets and the tall arrangements we filled the cylindar full of lemons and placed the arrangement on the top.

We used the left over lemons clustered along the side of the cermony chairs and placed bright yellow pomanders off the side of the chairs and hung three large pomanders off The Palm’s new arch.

The room was so cheerful and just made you feel like sunshine all over.

 We worked with Pleasanton Rentals to bring in the items to complete the table.  Aubergine satin linens with Casa Real’s Mahogany Chavari Chairs.  The matching napkins were tied with the lime green beaded napkin ring and layed over the glass beaded charger.  We used thier purple beaded votive cups to place lime green cymbidiums orchids at each place setting.  The flowers were created in an asymetical arrangement adorned with peacock feathers. Burgundies, dark purple and an accent of lime green flowers created a rich and inviting centerpiece. Three small burgundy containers with purple orchids, roses, tulips framed the bottom of the glass pilsner that had black rock, manzanita branch and lime green orchids inside.

Unveiled out of Walnut Creek came in and embellished the table with menu cards, place cards, table name and mini wine bottles as favors.

We had the great pleasure of creating four tablescapes  for Casa Real Event Center Vendor Showcase this past April 2010.  This table is called Chic Noir.

 We first worked with Pleasanton Rentals to bring in the items to complete the table.   The Silver Renaissance linen covered the kings table for a head table or an intimate dining affair. The black square lacquer chargers were underneath the black satin napkins that were folded to pocket the menu cards and a bright yellow cymbidium orchid.  Black Chavari chairs were tied with the platinum tuxedo sash for the modern elegance.  The flowers where all bright yellows – different vases with different types of flowers such as roses, callas, orchids, pin cushions, freesia, tulips and pomander balls to create different shapes and sizes down the long table.  In between the flowers we used two different size tall stemmed glass votive with floating candles. 

Unveiled out of Walnut Creek came in and embellished the table with menu cards, place cards, table name and black boxes with yellow ribbon as favors.

 We first worked with Pleasanton Rentals to bring in the items to complete the table.  Antique Mauve satin linens and napkins that we double layered and  swagged them to give a romantic feel to the complete table . The napkins were draped and tucked in with pearl napkin rings and a fresh ivory rose that laid on top of matte gold chargers. We used out chocolate candelabra and embellished it with hanging crystals and faux diamonds scattered on the table. The flowers were whites, ivories and antique pinks using hydrangea, stock, three different types of roses such as secret garden, Sahara and cream yves piaget, lisianthus and millet to give it that garden vintage feel.  Three small chocolate containers framed the bottom of the candelabra with matching flowers.  To complete the look we placed two silver plated square lamps with beaded shades and square glass tea light holders.  The chairs were Mahogany Chavari adorned with the beautiful cream Antoinette cushion covers.

Unveiled out of Walnut Creek came in and embellished the table with menu cards, place cards, table name and beautiful large faux diamonds as favors.

The Flower House is honored to be on the committee organizing The Tri-Valley Wedding Professionals that work in our surrounding area.  You can check out the video that Dan O’Hara created. We held ou first event at Casa Real on March 30, 2010.  200 guests showed up and had great things to say. We are looking for to our next event in July, details to follow.

I had the honor and pleasure working with Kelly and Brandon with their beautiful Round Hill Country Club Wedding on October 9, 2009. The soft peaches, pinks and ivories created a warm romantic French Garden evening at one of the most gorgeous venues in the Tri-Valley.  I did not get to see Kelly before she arrived but on the way back to the studio I received a phone call from my bride in tears on how amazing the vision came to life.  It makes my job all worth it! Lori Paladino caught some amazing images for an unforgettable wedding.
