Lately a lot of events have shifted to a more simplistic design aesthetic. Moving away from the classic black and white monochramatic approach and directing their attentions toward providing a more fresh and organic look.
This layout is a new take on an old favorite -- the DESSERT BAR! This display of delicious treats is very inviting. It's bright, it's fresh, and it's beautiful. The designer used a color blocking method to explore the vibrancy of yellow and green. Much like the burst of flavor a lemon or lime gives your palette this presentation gives your eyes that same experience. The colors really popped!

The catering continued the color theme by using lots and lots of LEMONS! Every dessert had a lemon flavor, lemons were piled high in large clear glass vases, and lemons were sprinkled thoughout livley patches of wheatgrass. Even the sunflowers chimed in to support the color theme.
The accents truly closed the deal and made the design concept complete. The use of garden carts to display the desserts was innovative and new. The large stainless steal vases broke away from the traditional centerpiece sitting on the center of the table to making them a stand alone attention grabber. The large scale cubed bookcase flanked with lemons and limes gave the entire display character and interest. What a great way to make an indoor event have a touch of being outdoors. Curious about all those lemons...they were recycled and made into lemonade.
