Alright, we know you're wondering -- what the heck is this not so sexy photo doing on our blog? Today we're exploring revisiting themes and event designs from our past work, and reinventing them into something current and beautiful. One of our key points as event designers is that we refuse to give our clients a "party in a box" or a "pinterest special." No two experiences are ever the same, nor should they look it! Is it okay to revisit certain elements? Sure. We love repurposing props and coming up with creative solutions.
Shown on the left, is a poorly taken photo of one of our tabletop designs from the 2010 NACE Experience in Austin, Texas. This a prime example of a creative, budget friendly tabletop design. Some of the elements included inexpensive rats holding place cards with "monster names" on them and custom hand crafted sugar skulls - a must for Dia de Los Muertos in San Antonio.
Now take a look at the image below from this tabletop design reconfigured in 2014 for a presentation in Dallas, Texas. You'll notice certain elements that have made a return to this design, but it has a completely different feel.
We repurposed the black, red and white Halloween tabletop theme. Implemented new, unique centerpieces by using Sir Rigor Mortis and Lady Dearly Departed with accenting flowers. We brought back the black glassware and placed the hand made sugar skulls as accent pieces on them. The party favors were handmade black coffin boxes with blood red glittering bonbons from Bedazzle My Bonbons. The entire tabletop was placed under a black and white canopy with a floral chandelier, complete with spooktacular flying black crows. As guests entered the tent, they were "greeted" by life size figures of Sir Rigor Mortis and Lady Dearly Departed. This was a fantastic photo opportunity that everyone loved.
We hope you enjoy taking a look at our photos from this "repurposed" theme. It is a great inspiration for any Halloween Party decor.
