A Holiday Gala: A Night of Magic

We are in the midst of Holiday Season – a very fun and welcome change from the wedding and event work during the rest of the year. Much of December we are covered in glitter and the showroom smells of fresh pine needles. It is the season when we help many annual clients decorate their large annual corporate holiday galas, their office spaces, or their employee dinner parties. It sure is a fun time of year for us. The party we are sharing today is an annual, super-fun event for us. Every year this client picks a different theme for their gala. And last year’s theme was A Holiday Gala: A Night of Magic.

This black-and-white party was modern, hip, and oh-so stylish! We used all white floral, candles and more candles, and silver orbs of various sizes to decorate each of the tables. Black linens and clear ghost chairs completed the look. Magical lighting, and large clusters of silver balloons throughout the space added that magical touch. Kevin from SLAY Events truly slayed it!!

Decorating for the Holidays – Part 2

How Are You Decorating for the Holidays?

Have you started decorating for the holidays yet? Or are you overwhelmed by it all?

Today is December 1st and for me officially the start of decorating at home. At my house, I have been hanging lights above the fireplace and outside the main entrance door, and I placed a decorated wreath as centerpiece for my dining room table. Not much quite yet, but it’s starting to feel very festive. Much more decorations will follow in the coming days. This year seems especially important surrounding myself with pretty things.

But my favorite part is the dining room table. It’s where everything is happening: all meals of the day, crafting and sewing projects, playing games. So let’s talk about your holiday dinner table for a while – Flora Nova’s specialty!

Setting a Festive Dinner Table During the Holidays

Your dining room table is probably the centerpiece of your home. It certainly is for me, and I try to always have fresh flowers or seasonal decorations on it.

Whether it’s a fresh wreath, a fresh floral bouquet, or an arrangement containing seasonal elements and ornaments, please let us help you decorate for the holidays. And did you know that we can help beyond flowers and centerpieces? We can provide luxurious linens, chairs, candles, and specialty table top elements to make your intimate family dinner as festive as possible.

Here are just a few inspirations to get you in the mood:

Beautiful Floral Centerpieces

Of course when we talk about how to decorate for the holidays, the flowers take center stage! And centerpieces with all the fun fall flowers and textures are amongst our favorites to design. Foliages turn into vibrant colors, blooms turn into pods, hydrangeas take on an antique marbled color palette, and we have a large abundance of dahlias, scabiosa, zinnia, and late summer garden roses available at the markets. Look at these beautiful centerpieces we recently designed!

Adding All the Fun Details

Decorating for the holidays goes far beyond just the floral centerpieces. In these inspirational pictures we added fruit, used colored taper candles, and and specialty table top elements, like specialty flatware, colored water glasses, and fun dishware. And the sheer ivory table runner and the mustard yellow velvet napkins with a sprig of dried fern add that special touch. And of course we can also help with specialty rentals like wooden tables, and these beautiful wooden Provence chairs.
