first corporate gig

yup - we don't only do weddings people ;)
we were very fortunate, thanks to our association with Wedding Acts to decorate the opening of a very large and prestigious law firm here in the Red Dot.
The location was the swanky new address in Anson Road, and it was held on the terrace which has a beautiful landscaped exterior to die for - lots of water features and up in the sky with a view of the business district - i wish all events could be in these locations - the breeze though was a little scary - seriously tables were swaying!!

anyway, the theme was to fit in with the logo, which was blue and white - so out came the hydrangeas again. And to add a touch of whimsy i used my little birds with peacock feathered tails in the cocktail table arrangements.
The taller arrangements were more modern, and the registration tables used chinese inspired blue and white bowls to keep within the theme.

The cocktail tables had little dark blue bows tied at the base - making them look like little white penguins all in a row. I had fun with this one more than any others cos it was up to me to come up with a simple design - and keeping it fresh and modern with clean lines.

Raffles Hotel

I wrote earlier about a new tie up with Wedding Acts... well I was given a chance to work with them recently... It was a 40th birthday party to be held at the Raffles Hotel lawn in Singapore. 

I was so excited and nervous all at the same time!!! This was the event that may decide the fate of THEFLOURIST, so it had to be good!

With this one though, some of the  designing was done for me..the look for the flowers and place-card holders was decided before hand, the napkin rings design came during our discussions.

The venue of course was amazing - I mean hello it was the Raffles. we could have put frogs on the table and it would have looked fab!! relax - no animals were harmed in the making of this event...

Blue and green were the colours - my fav colours of all time - (HINT HINT) For the blue we used hydrangeas and table runners, and we had green chrysanthemums and foliage. we also had blue and green candy, and Jonathan got name cards printed with the blue and green!

So with my lovely husband and great friend M in tow we pulled it off!! Thank you to them both without whom I would have tanked!

Gothica

For the dark and mysterious types. Candelabras add fantastic gothic drama.
