Gilded & grand – Loads of candles mixed with oversized centerpieces, accented with the ever-classic gold chivairi chairs.

Lovely in lace – Pay homage to old world tradition by opting for luscious lace draped as a veil or even featured at your sweetheart and VIP tables.

Formal & fun – Too often we associate formal affairs with stuffiness, not so! Combine your black-tie affair with lawn games…who says formal can’t be fun too!?

European vibe – After the past two years, who’s not longing to travel? Take your guests on an old-world tour of Europe through your decor, even naming tables after your favorite European cities.
