COUTURE COVERINGS PRESENTS......."PASSION GARDEN"

I KNOW WE HAVE BEEN AWAY FOR AWHILE BUT WE HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY !!!!! WORKING DAILY ON OUR NEWEST LINE OF COUTURE COVERINGS FOR 2011. WE ARE SO PLEASE TO SHARE WITH YOU THE FIRST OF TEN NEW DESIGNS FOR COUTURE COVERINGS. SO HERE IS A SNEAK PEAK AT "PASSION GARDEN". THE BIG REVEAL HAPPENS JANUARY 8, 2011 FOR A CLIENTS WIFE'S 50TH SURPRISE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION. SHE LOVES PURPLE AS DO I AND FRESH FLOWERS. THIS DESIGN IS ONE OF THREE FOR THE GARDEN THEME BIRTHDAY DECOR. THE TABLE RUNNER IS A CUSTOM DESIGN WE CREATED WITH A ROSETTE RIBBON ADDED ON TO EMBELLISH THE LOOK IT PAIRS WELL WITH OUR APPLE GREEN BEGDALINE LINENS. MY FAVORITE THING HAS TO BE THE BIRD NAPKIN RING HOLDER WE HAND CRAFTED. THE MOSS BASKETS WERE A GREAT FIND TO BRING IN A GARDEN ELEMENT AND WE CAPPED IT OFF WITH THE CUSTOM FLORAL ARRANGEMENT. THE FLORALS CONSIST OF ANTIQUE GREEN HYDRANGEAS, VENDELA ROSES, VIOLET LISIANTHUS, GREEN AND PURPLE ORCHIDS. TO COMPLETE THE FLORAL WE ADDED A DOUBLE LOOPED LILLY GRASS WITH CRYSTAL EMBELLISHMENTS AND A PURPLE ROSETTE BAND. I HOPE YOU ENJOY SEEING THIS DESIGN AS MUCH AS WE DID CREATING IT!

CUSTOM GRAND - THINK PLATINUM AND PRINCESS DIANA NEED WE SAY MORE.

DESIGNING BY CHIC CONCEPT SYSTEMS approaches an event more like an interior designer or architect than a florist. Just choosing different centerpieces hardly makes an environment feel different. We start by talking about how to best use the space you have chosen. We work together on design concepts, developing design concept boards and using tools such as colors swatches, fabric samples, unique containers and candles not to mention custom created elements. All to create something spectacular and unique to you.
Before each event we do a 'mock-up ' typically in a tablescape form. We give our clients up to four designs choices within the CHIC CONCEPT SYSTEM this allows you to see what your getting before your event. During this appointment it is used as a working session, gathering your feedback and collaborating with you to take it to the next level for the actual event. CHIC CONCEPT SYSTEM IS THE BRICKS AND MORTAR TO A SOLID EVENT FOUNDATION.

MY PICTURES FROM REAL WEDDING: NIKI AND STEVEN

HERE ARE A FEW PHOTOS MY STAFF TOOK WHILE SETTING UP FOR THE WEDDING OCT 10.2009 OF NIKI AND STEVEN WHITE. I HOPE THE PROFESSIONAL ONE ARE RELEASED SOON!

REAL WEDDING- NIKISHA AND STEVEN

OCTOBER 10TH 2009 WAS THE DAY OF MORE THAN A YEAR OF PLANNING BECAME A REALITY FOR NIKI AND STEVEN. THE COLORS FOR THE BIG DAY WERE A TRIO OF RED TONES. THE DESIGN ELEMENTS EVOLVED MORE OVER THE LAST 9 MONTHS AND I MUST SAY THE BOLD DRAMATIC COLOR COLLECTION DID NOT DISAPPOINT. I HARDLY CAN WAIT FOR THE PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS TO BE RELEASED. I PROMISE I WILL POST THEM SOON!

DON'T CALL IT A COME BACK......

I AM ALWAYS DOING RESEARCH ON TRENDS, STYLE, COLORS AND CONCEPTS AS IT RELATES TO WEDDINGS AND OTHER EVENTS. I CAME ACROSS SOME PHOTOS AND I NOTICE SOMETHING. THE ALL WHITE BOUQUET COULD IT BE MAKING A COME BACK? IS IT A TIMELESS TRADITION THAT FADED, AS MODERN BRIDES HAVE BECOME SO BOLD WITH COLOR ENSEMBELS. WELL WHICH EVER THE CASE MAYBE IT IS STILL JUST AS REGAL IN THESE PHOTOS TIMELESS ,BOLD AND ELEGANT! THE TREND SEEMS TO BE WHATS OLD IS NEW AGAIN LIKE THE BRID CAGE HEAD PIECES FOR THE OLD HOLLYWOOD GLAM / VINTAGE LOOKS.
THE PAST HAS A WAY OF ALWAYS REPEATING ITSELF.

ELEGANCE THE BRIDAL SHOW ...PART 2

ELEGANCE BRIDAL GALA WAS NOT JUST YOUR TYPICAL BRIDAL SHOW. THE EVENTS PRODUCER AUSTIN FLOYD HAD A VERY UNIQUE CONCEPT. IT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT DREW ME TO IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. "GALA" THE WORD ALONE SETS A DIFFRENT TONE FROM 'SHOW'. THE IDEA BEHIND THIS WAS FOR THE BRIDE TO EXPREIENCE THE VENDORS AND THE PRODUCTS AS A MORE PERSONAL -SEE IT, TOUCH IT OR IN SOME CASE TASTE IT KIND FEEL. SHE ASK THAT BRIDES DRESS IN BLACK AFTER FIVE COCKTAIL STYLE DRESSES TO GO ALONG WITH THE REAL MEANING FOR A GALA!
MY DESIGN FOR THIS SHOW WAS VERY DIFFRENT FROM WHAT I PRESENTED AT THE "TALK OF THE TOWN" SHOW TAPING. AUSTIN ASK EACH VENDOR TO DO A BOOTH THAT WOULD ENGAGE THE BRIDE IN A ACTIVETY, SO SHE COULD "EXPERIENCE YOUR SERVICE. MY BOOTH WAS A OVER THE TOP BRIDAL SHOWER/BACHOLRETTE PARTY THEME.
THE DESIGN(BACORLRETTE PARTY) WAS BASED OFF A LAS VEGAS NITECULB I CALLED "THE DIVA'S LOUNGE". IN MY BOOTH WE PLAYED VEGAS STYLE GAMES FOR SHOWER PRIZES. I EVEN HAD A WORKING MINI SLOT MACHINE THAT SOUNDED OFF AND FLASHED LIGHTS WHEN YOU WON THE JACKPOT! THE TABLESCAPE DESIGN(BRIDAL SHOWER) WAS CALLED "THE ULTIMATE DIVA". I LOVE SHOES SO NATURAL I PLAYED TO ALL WOMENS FETISH FOR FOOTWARE BY SUSPENDING RED HIGH HEELS IN MY FLORAL VASE. OH DID I MENTION I ALSO HAD A HIGH HEEL CHAIR THERE TO SIT IN.... OH IT WAS TOO FAB!

MT ZION BUSINESS EXPO AND BRIDAL SHOW....

THE BRIDAL EXPO WAS HELD ON SATURDAY OCT.3RD AT THE ANTIOCH LOCATION. HERE ARE SOME PICTURES FROM THAT SHOW. MY TABLE FEATURES WHITE ROSE DESIGN INFUSED WITH SPIDER MUMS AND LOOPED LILLY GRASS EMBELISHED WITH CRYSTAL ACCENTS TO COMPLEMENT THE FIVE ARM SHANNON CRYSTAL CANDELABRA.
