Saturday, May 1 was a busy day for TableArt.  Along with the Samschick Bar Mitzvah we had The Rock School for Dance Education’s Annual Scholarship Benefit at the Independence Seaport Museum.

The night was full of dancing, music, and roses.

The Save the Date was inspiration for the red and black decor.

1,000 Red Roses graced the tables that evening.

We used the black in the dress of the Save the Date as the anchor color for the vessels and chairs while the red was used to bring the room alive.

The black ball candles on the candelabra were a great alternative to the traditional taper candle.

The woman’s dress also influenced the napkin detail and fold.

A black lace garter was used to create the bustle of the dress which we fixed to be large and give the illusion of a skirt.

The night was a success with the great help of Culinary Concepts and their incredible team.

Looks we love… Something as simple as the decor you already have can be inspiration for a color combination with flowers.

We have black frames hanging in the office with a green and white damask linen.  The arrangements created were white Tulips in a black vase.  Simply Beautiful!

A few weeks ago I wrote about the venue’s decor inspiring the decor for an event.  This event occurred on Saturday.  A bar mitzvah at the Independence Seaport Museum.

The invitation, direction card, and response card all had a nautical detail.  The inside of the envelope even had a nautical map of the waters the host sails during the summer.  Kramer Drive Stationary did a fabulous job creating this.

The nautical map was also displayed on the hightops tables.

The tables were not identified by numbers but by the flag and the escort cards had nautical flags to denote the table assignment.

The theme made its way on to the tabletops and the room separator.  We had sailboats with sea glass and glass fishing floats on the tables with monkey ball key chains as the napkin detail and spandex sails to separate the kids area from the adults area.

The event was a sailor’s paradise.
