Natural History Museum Event

I love this image from one of the events we did this past year at the Natural History Museum with Pink Rock Events.  The venue became our inspiration for decor.  Long wooden tables were adorned with free- flowing organic designs.  Other round tables, we designed a fun design using a interesting eclipse vase with more organic inspired designs. Enjoy!

SYED Featured on Style Me Pretty: Villa Sancti Di Bella Vista Wedding

I am in love with this gorgeous event captured by Ian Grant Photography located on the beautiful private estate, Villa Sancti Di Bella Vista.  Within this space we created two different designs for ceremony and reception, both relatively organic in flow and flawless in execution!  A traditional Hindu ceremony, designed in hues of red and accents of orange.  The mandap was built with crawling greenery and red and orange florals.  The asymmetrical draping added an extra touch of elegance. 

Reception decor maintained an organic flow, using coral and magenta florals surrounded by crawling driftwood.  Each of the long centerpiece designs glowed by using a mix of vessels with floating candles. What a beautiful event!!!! Enjoy!

SYED Featured in Inside Weddings

Our dear friend Alexandra Rembac from Sterling Engagement's very own wedding has been featured in Inside Weddings.  We were so lucky to be apart of Alex and Jonathon's celebration at the Vibiana in downtown Los Angeles.  I was so excited to see these amazing images taken by Callaway Gable Photography!

The beautiful ceremony was held within the courtyard area of the Vibiana.  We designed a round Chuppah covered completely in greenery for Alex and Jonathan.  Flanking the aisle were custom, tufted boxes filled with hydrangea and more greenery.  Take a look at the flower girl's accessory!  A pave designed parasol, denoted with the words "I Do"!! Super cute design and idea.

Inside decor consisted on navy blue, silver, and purple.  An amazing color combination Alex picked up!  We love this feature and the beautiful couple!

RoomForty Tasting

Oh FOODGRACIOUS!!! I was so lucky to be apart of this wonderful tasting hosted by the extremely talented caterers from Room Forty at the Vibiana in downtown Los Angeles.  Collaborating with other vendors, Alex Rembac from Sterling Engagments joined an amazing team for this celebration.  Ideas for decor were really inspired by the  pairings and presentations of food and beverages by Room Forty.  Check out some of the images from that day!!!

Place setting, simple burlap style place mat with an adorable lace trimmed napkin provided by Designer Specialty Linens.  A delicate paper bag held the detailed and quite outstanding menu. All stationary provided by the fabulously talented Prim and Pixie.  A special thank you gift of plantable fresh herbs were also given to the guests!

For decor, it was important for us to draw attention to the senses with colors, smells, and textures.  Continuing down the long wooden tables provided by Classic Party Rentals, we used chique tall silver urns which held pastel color florals, fresh herbs, and my favorite detail ....artichokes!  Other vessels that were used held single blooms of gorgeous pink peonies and fresh kale.  This tablescape was so much fun for us! 

Look at SYED  hard at work!  Shawna with her free- style hand writing, wrote all the guests names onto two of our oversized mirrors!

This was absolutely one fun day!!! Full of great food, great drinks and great people!  A special thanks to Ryan Garvin for these beautiful images!!
