Inspirador's Big Night



Thursday night was the Grand Opening of the Inspiration Lounge at Inspirador.

We were asked to bring a centerpiece for a masculine sweetheart table.

Our table was right outside and I heard a lot of great things about the flowers!

I knew we would have teal as a table accent with silver pieces. I found nothing even remotely teal at the flower supplier today so I went with something that made my heart happy: purple and yellow.




The contrast is amazing and they work so well together.

Of course no Butterfly Petals piece is complete without some succulents. Look how cute those little echeverias are!



The centerpiece of our design featured a "lamp" with a succulent lampshade and submerged Picasso and deep purple calla lilies. I also included the little cute "Billy Balls" for a pop of yellow. The lamp actually lit and as the sun set the submerged callas had a soft, romantic glow thanks to some fancy LED lighting.



The two side arrangements featured yellow pincushion protea, succulents, the purple and Picasso callas, Billy Balls, scabiosa and the cute fiddlehead fern curls.



The handsome model even had his own little succulent boutonniere.
