Despina Craig Events: March 2015

40th Celebration | Feb 7th, 2015

by Despina Craig Events

A super chic and elegant event to celebrate the studio owners 40th birthday was a smashing success. Rich colors of satin red and black fabric, swanky chandeliers and sexy flower arrangements created this "bougy" club feeling.

A custom designed Step and Repeat banner was the perfect backdrop for guests to take a photo and remember the evenings celebrations.

One hundred and fifty guests were welcomed at the entrance with an amazing champagne cocktail.

The studio owners signature drink is Hennessy and in honor of his celebration the Hennessy bar served special Hennessy cocktails.

A custom designed sign hung above the bar.

The owners passion during his limited down time is Chess, therefore we incorporated some chess pieces through out the event to reflect him in a subtle manner.

Each cocktail table had a beautiful red rose flower arrangement surrounded by votive's, all tables were draped in black satin.

The twelve foot translucent bar had a red satin backdrop with a black and white abstract fabric draped down the center. Two fabric chandeliers hung in the center over the bar. The bar was anchored by two tall translucent towers that were illuminated and used to house the glassware.

The flower arrangements consisted of glass cylinders filled with pearl black and white gels and two beautiful bouquets of red roses wrapped in rhinestone fabric and a cluster of calla lilies draped down the center creating a contemporary romantic and sexy look.

In the center of the room, a beautiful black and white dance floor was visible from all the seating vignettes, with red up lights and palm trees surrounding the perimeter of the room.
