BREATHLESS

Guests entered through a tented hallway lined with candelabras and rose petals before emerging into the main space, where an array of entertainment offerings packed the party, including vintage burlesque and cabaret dancers.

A total of 200,000 stems of red and white roses, shipped in from Colombia and Ecuador, decorated the event. A team of 150 staffers worked to prepare the floral decor.

A pair of wings from artist Colette Miller of the Global Angel Wings project was the eye-catching emphasis of the table known as “Dancing Angels Along the Mediterranean,” designed by Sterling Engagements and Shawna Yamamoto Event Design.

Flowers spilled from bowl-like metallic vessels, and blue glassware lent a vibrant Mediterranean-inspired look.

The “Boheme Botanica” table, designed by Nicole Alexandra Designs and Rebelle Fleurs, took its inspiration from a snakeskin-patterned table linen in tan. The overall look was natural, with rustic wooden accents and lush greenery, but elevated.

Flowers from Avant Garden Events trailed off the edge of the table in a dramatic, asymmetrical arrangement.
