b'DCOR HIGHLIGHTS: Guests entered the Winter Wonderland through a lit archway with white velour draping that carried through the space. The cocktail area featured festively decorated Blox shelves next to champagne buckets and silver planters filled with white poinsettias. Dark blue crushed satin linen and white polar bear faux fur overlays draped the cocktail tables, which held silver julep cups with arrangements of white florals and holiday greens. A light-blue and white snowflake vinyl covered the U-shape bar, masking its amber glow, while white carpeting led to the Magic Mirror Photo Booth, adjacent to an eight-foot lit and flocked Christmas tree. An eight-foot Christmas tree also anchored the dining room, which featured round, square and rectangular tables in three designs that continued the white and blue color scheme. Table dcor included ice hurricanes with LED pillar candles; matte gray votives; white florals with fir and pine accents; acrylic Infinity chairs; and acrylic Chiavari chairs topped with polar bear faux fur caps or white satin sashes. Silver beaded glass chargers with white snowflake menus topped silver snowflake placemats, next to white napkins folded in a Christmas tree shape. The Trulucks team hid the restaurants crimson booth seats with faux snow blankets, and draped the rooms black-and-white chandeliers with white and silver metallic fringe. Snowflake gobo lights, accented with blue spotlights and uplighting, lit the dining area as well as the after-dinner lounge, where guests could relax on white loveseats and blue Regale sofas from AFR Event Furnishings. Chandeliers covered in pearl-white balloons, glass icicles and other accents hung above the dance floor, in front of a white LED bar. Trees twinkling with lights lined the attached terrace, featuring a firepit and cocktail tables covered in polar fur. Have a good candidate forEvent Spotlight?
