Eggplant and Platinum Elegant Affair at the St. Petersburg Woman's Club

Jasmine and Thomas



Like so many of our clients, Jasmine and Tom had already started a family prior to formalizing their relationship with a wedding celebration. Their summer ceremony was held at St. Raphael's Church with a reception that followed at the St. Peterburg Woman's Club. Their selection of a deep purple and platinum 
 color palette created a stunning formal look enhanced by uplighting provided by DeLite Entertainment. 



We loved embellishing with our in-house decor including silver trimmed candle holders for the sweetheart table. 



Carmen's Flowers did all of the fresh florals for our tall glass cylinders on the guest tables. Jasmine chose to put all of the color emphasis on the tops of the guest tables with eggplant napkins and platinum runners. Chair covers and ties were both neutral.



A Linen Valley "hid" the pink stage curtains with tall draperies which also framed the couple's table

The lobby entrance featured the gift table, sign in table, guest table seating arrangements and an hors d'oeuvres station. The couple provided a unique mural where guests could add their own creative touches to a reception poster.



In keeping with Jasmine's vintage vision, a suitcase served as a card box and ribbon wands were handed out for the farewell later in the evening.


Our tall branched silver candle stand accented the hors d'oeuvres table.





Varying shades of the "royal" colors offered more variety for bouquets and colored water for floating candle cylinders on the guest tables. 



                                 


Instead of a traditional tiered wedding cake, Jasmine and Thomas chose a simple single square cake for "pictures" and utilized our silver stands for their favorite donuts.



Because Jasmine had a love for butterflies, we added them as small details to many of the display tables. 



We utilized silk flowers in white and purple from our in-house decor inventory for our deep purple glass vases.


We were asked to provide a unique watermelon salad that required a special brand of Feta Cheese we had shipped in from a Greek food purveyor. It was delicious with a wild baby greens salad and a balsalmic drizzle.




Instead of ho-hum favors, the couple donated to a charity and offered each guest a pre-packaged set of cookies at their place setting.

















Congratulations Jasmine and Tom for partnering with us 
for your celebration.
