Since my table is banquet sized, I thought of using a bunch of different, shabby, vases to line the center of the table. I used a mixture of glass jars, bud vases, vintage fleur de lis glasses and white hobnail vases. Next I visited my friend Lori, of Flore Fine Flowers for some floral ideas. We decided to use champagne roses to compliment the pink of the toile napkins along with some green berries.

Event Creations had the pleasure of working with two of our favorite vendors in producing fabulous tablescapes.  Diane Gaudett of Custom Floral Designs provided the flowers and Kristen Jensen of Kristen Jensen Photography took the great shots!  Event Creations designed the tabletop.  Images shot at the beautiful Lounsbury House in Ridgefield, CT.

We did 2 different looks with this season’s hottest colors!!  Check them out…

Tablescape #1:
Lime green lamour linen and navy blue pintuck linen with tiffany blue lamour napkins. The Chivari chairs are topped with a lime green lamour chair cap.  Florals are all white carnation balls and the glass containers have a tiffany blue ribbon wrapped around.

Tablescape #2:
I just love this color combination!  Orange lamour linen with orange lamour napkin and chair cover.  The arrangements use purple orchids in glass containers with bear grass. Each napkin has a purple orchid.  Simple, classy and  delivers a huge color punch!
