Last week on April 1st Tantawan Bloom took part in the New York Weddings magazine show at the Metropolitan Pavilion on West 18th Street in Manhattan.
Spring is a wonderful time for Lilacs, so I decided to feature them in a centerpiece that also included white Phalaenopsis Orchids which is always beautiful and elegant, white and blush pink Ranunculus, white and very pale pink Peonies, blush spray Roses, Sweet Peas and white Freesias. This centerpiece was inspired by waterfalls, so I also wanted to use water and candles. We had only limited space on the table so we made the centerpiece tall, with white Phalaenopsis orchids cascading down like a waterfall onto a lucite pool of floating candles and orchid buds.
Gorgeous linens, glassware, flatware and chairs were all provided by
Classic Party Rentals. (Thank you to Julia Dash!) 
For the napkin rings we created a garland of rose petals (Thai Style) for a unique, stunning and elegant look.
I also made seven different bridal bouquets: four in different shades of pink (Peonies and Sweet Peas), one of white Lilacs, one with purple Lilacs and Anemones, and one art-deco inspired, white and black flowers surrounded by plumes of white feathers.
Thank you to all the brides and others who stopped by the table.
Thank you to New York Weddings Magazine.
Thank you to Lindsey of Lindseybelle Photography. for the beautiful photographs.
