Thank You Note That Makes Me Belive in What I Do

I love what  I do, and I get exited with new opportunities, products, designs. I always loved colour, texture and things pretty. Each time I see the happy couple, or the wedding decor well executed, I feel energized and ready for more designing challenges.

The recent thank you note that had arrived in my mail box made me supper happy, and added even more energy for the wedding season that is about to start.

Sophisticated Birthday Party Celebration

I want to share the details of one special event that I had a privilege to design at the beginning stages of my business. Gaitree was a friend of a girl that I had met on the wedding set up for my neighbor. Gaitree was organizing a party to celebrate her 40^th birthday. It is how my experience with ostrich feather centerpieces has started anyway. We worked together to style the celebration for her close friends and family. The fabulous birthday girl wanted an elegant affair with décor details in all areas of the reception venue, including touches in bathrooms as well. The chosen colours were classic white and black with a modern twist.

Going through these photos was really nostalgic for me - this was THE Event that influenced my design 'career' in many ways and gave me a lot of confidence.  We needed to create ostrich centerpieces, bar arrangements and fabulous designs to be placed around the room. Each table setting was adorned with a small vase with white rose. All the design elements turned out great, and the place card table set up become the source of inspiration on Bride.ca and it can be found here.

It was an evening to remember.  Gaitree {who was the star of the night} was surrounded by her family and friends, and yes, I also was there to take part in the celebrations. It turned out that one of her uncles was my neighbor.

The picture tree that I created turned out to be the center of attention. Through the night the guests would come and check all the pictures. It was a custom creation of black twigs, crystal and personal photographs.

Oh, one more exciting news here, Tracey, who introduced us, is getting married the upcoming summer, and guess, we are going do her wedding décor. Can’t wait, can’t wait.

It was a fabulous celebration.  Enjoy!

Black ostrich feathers create strong statement framing the picture tree that become  the focal point  and center of attention.

White ostrich centerpieces brought element of fun to the celebration.

Additional decor elements, like mirrors, disco balls, candles and white roses in small vases were used to bring texture and colour to the tables. In addition, mirrors and silver chargers created layered  look, complementing black table linens.

The corners of the reception room were decorated with one of a kind arrangements of black sparkly twigs with hanging crystals. Numerous red and white flower balls hang from the brunches. It created the visual interest beyond the tables.

Another table was decorated with twigs and crystals. The arrangements were framed with black ostrich centerpieces. The guest had the opportunity to write best wishes and to post on the tree.

Fabulous Reception Vanue in Toronto - The Arcadian Court

If you're looking for a venue with class and elegance, the beautiful Arcadian Court at downtown Toronto should be on your must-see list. The vaulted forty-eight foot ceilings, marble floors, grand columns and gorgeous crystal chandeliers make this a truly stunning setting for every event.

The galleria overlooking the two-story ballroom is a fabulous venue for pre-reception cocktails, and the ballroom itself can seat five hundred with a dance floor, six hundred without.

Located on the eighth floor of the Simpson Building at the corner of Bay and Queen, the Arcadian Court has been hosting special events and weddings years.

The Arcadian Court opened in 1929. There were number of different renovations over the years, and The Arcadian Court has been almost entirely restored to its former glory.

Giuseppe Zanotti, a black stiletto with  large sapphire centerpiece with diamonds. Wow, can you walk this shoes?

Rene Caovilla, designed satin sandal with marabou feathers and Swarovsik crystals. This shoe is so sexy.

Cesare Casadei, came up with the idea of silk pump with jeweled straps and floral details. Very elegant yet simple.
