The Occasional Word

Ball Season - Enchanted Forrest

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you had a fabulous weekend. I had a pretty quiet one which I have to say is a rare but welcome occurrence these days. So what have you got planned for this week? Here at Red Creative we're gearing up for the pop-up showroom, putting some finishing touches on quotes for next wedding season, designing some stationery and trying our best to keep warm :)

So on to part 3 of my 2010 Ball Picks - Enchanted Garden by Kings College.

Kings were at Eden Park again this year and it's really a nice venue to work in. Only down side is the pooey greeny browny gold chairs but we made these work with some good lighting. The light boxes really made the look, especially when on mass they are a great addition to any evening function a cheaper alternative to pin spotting especially when you are working with 60+ tables like we were. 

That's it for my ball season highlights for this year - what's your favourite?

Ball Season - Alice In Wonderland

Morning! I feel as though my little fingers may fall of while typing this so I'm keeping it short. Part two of my 2010 ball favs - Alice in Wonderland. Uber-popular theme this year because of the movie (which I liked a lot by the way).

Oh and just to prove I can multitask over on facebook I am doing a series of centerpiece collections each in one tone. Yesterday was lemon, today is orange.

 

Ball Season - Winter Wonderland

We've just wrapped up a big ball season here at Red Creative and it was a good one. I actually really look forward to each year working with the students and helping bring all of their creative ideas to life. Over the next couple of days I'll be blogging some of my 2010 favs. 

MRGS chose a winter wonderland theme for their ball this year. It was a great opportunity to use the fabulous table chandeliers that I adore. They are such a spectacular centerpiece and work particularly well in spaces with high ceilings. I especially love them with a floral wreath around the base - drop dead gorgeous for weddings and totally classy corporate functions.

Look pricey for a school ball? Yes they are on the pricey side but they were just too perfect not to use. Our solution - pair them up with a cheaper option on every other table. We used mirror balls with white feather. Like what  you see here? Talk to us about theming your next function :) We'd love to be a part of your event.

Oh and for all of you who want to get up close and personal with what we can offer, come along to our pop up showroom in August. More info on the website and our facebook page.
