Southern Splendor

A Midtown hotel serves as the local for a dinner in honor of a philanthropic gentleman.

Stunning, floral centerpieces bathed in the candlelight shimmer of mercury glass votive cups, a striking buffet and bars adorned with upright floral works of art, all combine to make the evening a magical show of gratitude.
 
The hotel’s grand entrance is marked with two exquisite garden hydrangea wreaths studded with lovely rose blooms and ivory bows.  A wonderful welcome to the event’s guests.
 
Gorgeous centerpieces designed in a low mounded array of greens, creams and cognacs grace  guest tables swathed in stylish linens and finished off with illuminated candle cups.  Each arrangement is a magnificent collection of green cymbidium orchid blooms, rusty chocolate brown roses, chartreuse hydrangea, silvery white Dusty Miller, organic kale and brown lotus pods with textual eucalyptus greenery spilling over the sides.
 
The bars are home to tall magnificent, high style arrangements of blue delphinium and golden callas with a clustering of roses at the base accented with tropical foliage all in a mercury glass cube vase.
 
The buffet is a regal display of beauty.  Incorporating the floral selection from the event’s other designs, the buffet piece is a stunning assemblage of statuesque delphinium in the center ringed by graceful ivory and yellow calla lilies with white washed birch branches.  The base is surrounded by garden hydrangea, tropical protea and exotic greens in a white wooden modern urn.
 
The stage is festooned with a hearty variety of green rental plants including bountiful ferns, arboricola and fall toned crotons.  Lining the back of the stage, the flora add a lush backdrop for the evening’s presentations
