Photos of the Lincoln High School Formal that was held at the Wigram Airforce Museum . The theme was Atlantis Under the Sea and the combination of green & blue up lights and green and blue lighting combined with turquoise and gold chair sashes, 3 different centrepieces and a green/ blue 6m long organza wallway with warm gold fairy lights made this theme come alive. The 1.2m in diametre 3 tiered chandelier was made of hanging sashes and balloon garlands with blue seed lights and looked amazing. 60 balloon garlands were also used and hang from the trusses. Please contact me if you would like any more information.

Photos of the Papanui High School Formal that was held at The Foundry Chch University. The theme was Winter Wonderland and with centrepieces made of balloons, snowflakes & lights in fishbowls as well as 1m high white trees with lights, crystals and 3m high white trees and snowflakes on the roof it looked wonderful. Light blue shrugs over white chair covers with diamante brooches and great blue mood lighting also helped with the theme and I am sure that all the students had a fabulous time. Please contact me for any help with your function or school formal as we have a huge range of items and we cater for all budgets.

Wedding at Chateau on the Park in the Great Hall and using their lovely secluded garden for the ceremony. We used our 2 pillar arch and added a combination of pink sashes and extra pink roses with the existing white flowers. Our 10m white petal aisles with plinths and flower urns lead up to the arch and created a perfect backdrop for the ceremony and the photos. Chair covers and sashes were used with the centrepieces made of our 50 cm tulip vases with a pink , white & green rose ball with hanging crystals on a mirror. If you would like any information on any of the costs of setting the venue up or any of the items shown please don't hesitate to contact me as it's not as expensive as you might think and lets you enjoy your special day without any stress.

A beautiful Black & White wedding at the Hornby Working Mens Club. The whole wedding took place at the Club with an area sectioned off for the ceremony complete with aisle, arch and flowers and the other section for the tables and food and dance floor. White chair covers & black organza chair sashes with diamante brooches and black satin table runners were used. The centrepieces were a 32cm vase with crystals + a white light at the bottom & a red rose ball with a hanging crystal . The backdrop also used a 6m white pleated curtain with white fairy lights.
We delivered and set up the venue and also packed it away the following morning to ensure that the bride & groom had no stress and was able to just enjoy their special day. Please inquire if you would like a quote as it is not as expensive as you might think. Regards Karen

A colour combination with a difference Purple & Red theme. It looked great using a purple shrug with diamante brooch over the chairs at Riccarton Racecourse and the purple carpet runner with the shepherds crooks with hanging red rose balls. The centrepieces had both red & purple roses in the white rose ball and a hanging crystal. Vases with purple lights in the water with a floating candle ( candle not shown ) were in another room to complete the look.
