Bursting Into Spring

​Our Tailored Twig team loves being part of the Tampa Bay area wedding community. There are so many amazing wedding professionals as well as opportunities for networking and education.

​Our Tailored Twig design team was invited to showcase our work at last month’s Association of Bridal Consultants Central Florida West Local Networking Group event.
 
The Association of Bridal Consultants hosts networking and educational events for the wedding community on a monthly basis across the Tampa Bay area with a focus on education.
 
The March meeting was held here in downtown Tampa at the brand new Julian B Lane Riverfront Park, an incredible special event space with nearly 3,000 square feet of space located on the west bank of the Hillsborough River.
 
The event space features floor to ceiling windows that open into a covered terrace with outstanding views of downtown Tampa. The space melds polished concrete floors, textured wooden walls and exposed beams into a unique industrial space.

​Our team played off that vibe by combining rustic wooden farmhouse tables, silver industrial metal chairs with textured glass charger plates and luxurious linens in a spring color story.
 
We began the design concept by placing a large bright yellow and green floral chandelier in the center of the space and then placed similarly styled smaller floral chandeliers over the wooden farmhouse tables. 

​These long tables were layered with brightly colored table runners, round metallic vessels overflowing with flowers that continued the spring color story in shades of yellow and green with interesting blooms and interesting textures.
 
Our creations included butterscotch and caramel antique roses, yellow parrot tulips, blooming forsythia branches, and wolly bush with its soft texture. Mixing in metallic tone votive candles in a variety of sizes and a soft velvet napkin in a contrasting color topped with a super green ranunculus added more interest to the tablescape.

​The round guest tables were draped with soft velvety linen and dressed with tall centerpieces atop bronze metallic risers. Using the same unique floral specimens as the low arrangements, these tall arrangements added in wax flower, fritillaria, green kangaroo paws, hybrid poppies, calathea, fern fronds, thistle, orchids and brunia albiflora creating more dimension and interest.

​This was a wonderful opportunity to showcase our work in one of Tampa’s newest event spaces to a community of our fellow wedding professionals.  It was also gave us the chance for our team to mix and mingle and make some new friends.

​Thank you to the team from the Association of Bridal Consultants Local Networking Group as well as the following vendor partners who helped bring this event to life.
