Blushing Bridal Shower!

A blushing bride & glittering shower! This summer bridal shower at Campagnia Restaurant in Fresno was fabulous and full of blooms by Stems at the Palatine. The outdoor patio was the perfect setting for our elegant garden feeling. The black and white lengths of linen were adorned with full, fresh arrangements of roses, hydrangea, lilies, orchids, hyacinth, lilac and, of course, our summer favorite: peonies!  Gold chargers with a beaded rim framed each place setting with a black satin napkin & a stem of green hydrangea wrapping each guest's menu by creative partner, RSVP Style in the Central Valley.  Final touches of elegance: gold chivarri chairs.

Another element of notable table decor are the gorgeous favor gifts for each guest.
Boxed decadent chocolate truffles with a mini-bottle of Ruffino Champagne and a fresh, long-stemmed strawberry. A treat everyone enjoyed!

Country Fair 1st Birthday Celebration

Ya'll round up for a BBQ!

A steaming grill, balloons and bushels of chips made for a fun afternoon at Luke's first birthday country fair!!!  Over 150 guests enjoyed a beautiful afternoon seated at handmade wooden farm tables beneath hundreds of balloons dancing in arches in the breeze.  Rustic benches made it easy for the little fair-goers to jump away from lunch and run around the massive lawn, jump and slide in the bounce house, get their rosy cheeks painted and, of course, ride ponies!

BBQ burgers and dogs filled wooden tray plates, while guests gnashed on bushel baskets brimming with tortilla chips and salsas.  Red and white checkered runners and red bandana napkins created a casual and celebratory feel throughout this sprawling backyard in the middle of fresh, spring green, corn fields. Chilled giant mason jar dispensers poured fresh lemonade and iced tea endlessly, as our wheel barrow of "Big Boy Brew" iced beer went just as quickly!

Guests sang "Happy Birthday" to our blue eyed guest of honor and indulged in crates and galvanized 

trays of BBQ hot dog and sunflower themed decadent cupcakes.  As the afternoon faded away, our happy and sun-kissed guests were hugged and treated to freshly baked apple and berry pie pops.  The iconic number "1" was custom cut into each pop and tied off with adorable tags thanking them for celebrating with the party's "Cutie Pie," Luke!

A Lifetime of Love: 70 Year Wedding Anniversary

What a gift to spend a lifetime with someone you love endlessly.  We were overjoyed to have been a part of creating a beautiful and memorable celebration for Joe & Mary.

When given our event venue, we were presented with quite a challenge. This Church social hall was essentially a school gymnasium.  Mission: Operation Transformation!

Together with our dedicated staff and vendors, we worked ferociously to convert this four walled, white, cold multipurpose room into a anniversary celebration, reminiscent of an Italian wedding 70 years ago.  This 70th wedding anniversary is a milestone to be achieved by few, celebrated by this loving family and a goal for others to aspire!

Hundreds of feet of 18 foot tall pipe and drape, laced with yards of sheer organza fabric, embraced every wall of this venue.  Strands upon strands of Italian string lights danced above the guests heads, allowing the industrial ceiling to disappear, while dozens of lavender up lights painted the fabric walls with a hue that inspired romance and reminiscing among the families and friends. 

Silver Revere bowls, elevated and table top height, spilled over with white, green and purple hydrangea, tulips, roses and orchids.  Hand tied strands of Hawaiian orchids dangled playfully from the taller centerpieces.  The scent of spring filled the air.  Lavender roses petals made perfect beds for the precious photographs of the loving couple over the years.

Our kid's table stretched over 32 feet in length and kept the attention of 49 children for over three hours, coloring, playing checkers, cards and visiting the past with slinkys and dominoes! 

After show-stopping platters brimming with pastas, pizzas and steak made their way to the tables, guests were wowed by tri-colored coconut cake, inspired by the Italian flag. 

This family will remember this celebration and pass down the memories of it to many generations to follow!

Mission Accomplished!!!

Gorgeous uplighting creating a romantic atmosphere, with staggering floral centerpieces by

Stems at the Palatine. We loved the draping orchid garlands on the tall pieces!!
