C ITRUS fuchsiaVibrant and fresh hues compete to capture attention and
spread energy. The color palette pivots around raspberry and
bright pinks with citrus popsicle orange and a touch of bud
green and bright yellow that spike the look up. Passion and
energy merge with the bright colors of Gloriosa Lilies,
Craspedia, Zinnias, Gerberas, Colorful Chrysanthemums,
and Vibrant Roses. Vessels with clean lines in clear or colored
glass help define the look. Plastic or glass pieces can be frosted
or transparent but need to be bright and full of optimism like
the color palette of the flowers. Design accents of colored
aluminum wire, colored sticks, beads and bling emulate the
carefree heart and soul of the youthful optimism of this theme.

A leisurely tropical paradise, where mind and soul find relaxation
and renewal. A feeling of refreshing energy flows as this design style
sends waves of energy to all the guests. Oncidium spray orchids
create a graceful horizontal movement, giving the impression of a
soft ocean breeze. Perfect for placement down the middle of long
banquet tables. Narrow and long containers made of bamboo,
woven basket, pottery or glass keep the base of the design nice and
slim. The base is kept uncluttered and light, but weighted with use
of river rocks, sand, crushed glass or water pearl/ice. Acolyte LEDs
or candles embedded at the base provide subtle lighting. The style
can be expanded to any bright tropical color theme and can be
accessorized with smaller matching centerpieces.

P lantescenceVery modern and mindful, yet very organic theme appealing to
our eco-friendly yet fashionable lifestyle. With a sense of fresh
airiness and natural lightness this design style provides impact
with a feeling of sustainability and simple beauty. The color
palette as the namesake indicates range in all shades of greens
(from yellow green to blue green), white and natural earth
tones. Incorporating plants and greenery enhances the feeling
of natural beauty and reinforces our desire for a simpler, less
impactful indulgence. Easily accented with black and soft
metallics. Containers and accessories of clear glass, colored
glass and opalescence along with stainless steel, chrome and
champagne metallics are best.

CUL INARYcapersThe garden overflows with this natural and herbal theme,
exquisitely textural with a combination of aromatics from
herbs and flowers. Selections of herbs and garden flowers in
this table design enhances the taste of the meal and the
ambiance of the occasion. Pairing the flowers and the food
adds another gourmet dimension creating a magical experience.
A number of monochromatic color themes could be utilized
when used with shades of garden greens by simply selecting a
range of flower types you would naturally find in the garden.
Cut crystal or clear glass containers or its acrylic counterpart
can be lit up with LEDs from underneath to add impact and
stir the excitement of guests.
