  1. Flower Entrance

Inspired by Dior, this event art installation shown by The Flower Chef creates an archway entrance that is complimented by the colorful spot lighting. The interesting idea means you could use plain colored flowers and use the lighting display to change the dynamic depending on the evening, theme or mood changes as the event goes on.

  1. Candelabra Blossoms

This understated idea is perfect for smaller tables or seated events as the candelabras provide some structure and help to lift most of the florals off of the table while adding an extra dynamic. As you can see from this example by Have A Seat Floral & Decor it creates a beautiful and classy table layout idea.

  1. Cascading Centerpiece

Upscale and Posh Flowers give a different twist on the above by using the stand to create a cascading effect and covering the center of the candlestick to make it look like a freestanding centerpiece.

  1. Giant Vase

Flowers in a vase may be the norm but not often on this grand scale at this event at the Hop Exchange. As you can see from Bubbles Wong this lavish bouquet is taller than some of its attendees and is the centerpiece for the room rather than a table, sometimes massively up-scaling a traditional idea can create a great impact.

Have A Seat Floral & Decor show off this display of white and clear in a multi-tiered table layout with a great use of height to make it more dynamic.
