Ooh La La!

4:05 PM | Edit Post

The theme to this year's opulent Creme de la Creme Bridal Showcase at the Four Seasons Hotel on November 6th, was Romance with a Parisien feel. The French have such style when it comes to romance, and with the new drama unfolding in the Bridal Runway gown designs for 2012, this set the tone for this years event. As a Kelowna Wedding Planner I attend these shows in order to keep up to date with the latest and most innovative of wedding trends and styles. This show caters to discerning brides and is the most extravagant bridal event of the year in Vancouver.

I had the pleasure of attending a presentation by guest speaker Preston Bailey, Wedding designer extraordinaire to celebrities around the world. Definitely his influence was forefront in the "over the top" floral displays at this years show. Ultra extravagant displays of volumes of flowers to make an outstanding eye catching impact.




(Above) To greet the attendees was this huge display of hydrangea and orchids in the shape of a bridal ball gown. There were steps in the back for the ladies to step up into and get photographed wearing this floral ball gown.

Sweet Treats!





(above) Terrific presentation idea by the Four Seasons. They displayed a dessert table and used a crystal tree centerpiece wrapped in satin ribbon to display their doughnuts and candy floss on. We have to learn to look at props in so many different ways. Think out of the box and utilize a prop in a different manner. The unexpected, is the WOW factor.







COUTURE RUNWAY FASHION SHOW!

A spectacular canopied entry to the runway. Flowing with drapery fabric, a canopy of trailing dendrobium orchid and crystal Leis, around a central crystal chandelier.
Glamorous haute couture dresses, showcasing designers like Monique Lhuillier, Oscar de la Renta, Vera Wang and Canadian designer Ines DiSanto.










I hope you got some inspiration from one or two of these stylings. I had such a fun time at the show and will look forward to see how they top this in 2012.
