Bridal Showcase Inspiration Board - Amanda Douglas Events

 

(Above is the inspiration board we put together for  our booth at the show)

If you missed us we were a part of the It’s Love Bridal Showcase back in October. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how our booth turned out, how many lovely brides we met (and now are working with!) and how much fun we had bringing it all together.

Because we’re never one to miss a good opportunity we adding a bit more to our day (because really why not?) and turned the booth into a styled shoot set up.

We worked with the best vendors and are so excited to get to share with you some of our favourite images from the day.

With this bridal showcase, myself and my creative partners took on a different approach then the norm (or what’s normal on our area) and wanted to put together two different looks and price points for the brides attending.

We know that each bride comes with a different set of expectations, budget, and of course style, so we wanted to bring together one colour palette done in two very different ways.

For the high-end look we decided to go with dark rich tones that could be translated into summer, spring, winter or, fall (if done right).

We went big (but not high) with the centerpieces and decided to go with the ever popular rectangular table. We decided to add tones of gold, bronze, rose gold, lots for purple, lush greenery and touches of beautiful baby pink and fuchsia.

For the low-end table we decided to take the same colour palette but do it in a lighter theme. We went with a light beautiful champagne matte satin tablecloth, lighter dishes (similar to what would come standard with any venue), but still running with the touches of gold, lots of beautiful purple tones, more whites and some greenery.

You’ll notice that for this table we went with the more traditional roundtable, which most venues have standard. Some venues you have to pay to bring in rectangular tables, or extra if you want to do square tables (as it takes two rectangular tables put together to make a square). Usually this requires getting more linens as well, because most companies order to size the standard tables.

We went with lower simpler arrangements on this table, but tried to bulk up the table and spread the theme throughout with the candles, small decor pieces, and of course the fun wooden table number.
