Crowning Inspiration: Black & White Tablescape

This morning Ann from Bartz Viviano Flowers & Gifts and Brittany from Crowning Celebrations Event Design & Coordination presented a black and white tablescape on WTOL's Your Morning Saturday.

The table featured a white taffeta linen with black velvet circles. At the center was a noir tree that had white hydrangea at the base. Tree branches were intertwined with white phalaenopsis orchids. Also featured where spheres of white carnations that were embellished with a crystal vine woven throughout. These spheres were placed on black-stripped vases. At each placesetting were silver chargers, clear square plates, black napkins with custom menus, silver flatware and long-stem glassware. Each napkin was accented with a crystal diamond paperweight for some extra bling! Votive cups were accented with crystal bands as well and were glowing with LED candles.

This look is great all together, or can be mixed up with the high trees on some tables and the lower spheres on others. This table would look great with noir chivari chairs and white or silver cushions. Or for a budget friendly idea, a black wood folding chair would compliment as well.

To add a little color, I recommend some color-washing on the walls and ceiling of your banquet room, or tent. This black and white tablescape would look great with just about any color. But blue turquoise is my favorite and you can play on that color with a blue Hypnotic liquour signature drink! Cheers!
