  • A Black Tie Affair to Remember

    Everyone loves a black tie affair, but try adding a few of these new ideas to your special event and the night will be truly yours…

    • A black & white bouquet is sure to make a strong statement. Try white sweet peas with a big black bow, white garden roses with chocolate cosmos, or a combo of deep plum (almost black) and white calla lilies for a bouquet to remember.
    • First impressions matter, so use a red carpet for your aisle runner to truly awe your guests.
    • Rent a black & white checkered dance floor. Guests will have a blast dancing the night away like Fred and Ginger!
    • Nothing is more elegant and classic than a black & white tiered wedding cake. Think about a white cake piped with black henna-inspired designs with fresh white flowers for a chic yet classic style.
    • Ask your florist to create simple boutonnieres for all of the men in attendance or think about outfitting them with white pocket squares. Not only will your decor be top-notch, but your guests will all look stunning as well!
