Ok.. so now that i've officially booked with pedastals and i have my theme set... i need some extra ideas...
This is what i've got so far.. Theme: 40's glamour/winter elegance
It's gonna be like a glamouros Ice storm.. at least that's how i like to see it..lmao.
For floral arrangements we chose a high CP with a full arrangement of ostritch feathers, blue dendrobium orchids, branches and some filler of course(probably hydrengia or something) to make it full with hanging chandelier crystals..... The linens are gonna be like a white satin with a shimmery overlay ... i think it's called twinkle.. so it will really sparkle.. i'd also like to add some votives around the base of the CP...( i wish i had a picture ..but haven't been able to find anything really like it )
My colors are like and icy turquoise..david bridal calls it cornflower.. and impressions has the exact color i want too!!! with black... boks are roses with the blue orchids ...wrapped in black ribbons with crystals.. and mine is a full arrangement of roses with crystals!!!
So now i need some ideas for place cards, holders, RB pillow and FG basket.. and all the extras.. shoes... cakes..all of it. I really want everything to have like shimmer/shine/sparkle.. but i don't want it to look like there is just glitter everywhere either.. more of a crystal look i guess.
So hit me with your best stuff ladies!!! TIA

Are you doing somewhat of a crystal theme? Do you have a pic of the cystal chandaliers for your CP's, those sound very interesting. Do you also have a pic of the linens? Is Pedestals providing them?
yes pedestals is providing the linens... robert helped me pick out a great linen.. but then said there was a new one coming in called twinkle that was even more sparkly.. i dont have any pics.. but since its new he said he'll show me when they come in!!!! I wish i did have a picture of the CP!!! We based it on a sample that was in thier showroom.. it had callas and hydrengia i think.. with branches.. on a tall glass vase.. it also had the feathers in it..! But he is of course gonna change it around a bit(no lillies..add the orchids.. etc) and add then add the hanging crystals!! I am soo excited.. i can't wait to see a sample! It just sounded so pretty and went perfectly with the linens.. really accented the theme i was going for!
when i did a google search i came up with one linen called twinkle.. it was like a pewter color with crystals on it that sparkled.. but im not sure if that is it!! It looked really pretty though.. he def. got that i wanted some shine.. my aunt said i have to live up to my name since it's krytal..lmaooo
Everything sounds amazing. So you wont be using your Rh's linens now that I think of it, I have to see what these linens look like, I had no clue that Ped. provided linens. My theme is white & cystals, I want to hang cystals on my CP's but where would they hang from, the top or bottom
What are hanging chandalier cystals??? I have to go back to Ped soon, lol
thank you!! I didn't know ped. did linens either.. but i showed him a picture of a BM dress in the color i wanted and explained everything..and i mentioned that as beautiful as my room at RH was.. i wasn't that into the linens and didn't feel like they went with my theme! So he said they do linens and he could give us a package deal! i was so happy cause that saved me a trip to a linen company..lol..plus we got to design the whole thing. If you go back there soon.. when u first walk in there is an arrangement by the reception desk .. i think it's in all pinks and reds.. and there are crystals hanging from it.. lemme see if i can find something similar and i'll post..just so u can get an idea of how they hang them. i think they hang them from the bottom.. i'll do a quick search and see what i can come up with.
