Rusty Pelican - Bridal Open House - Tuesday September 21st 2010

On Tuesday we had the pleasure of attending the Rusty Pelican Bridal Open House. If you were there then you know  how wonderful it was - if you did not attend and still need help with your wedding you should plan to come to the next open house which should be sometime in early 2011.
There were as always lots of Brides, Great Vendors and Wonderful Food Supplied by the Rusty Pelican. Vendors included many of our favorites - DJ's included Eric Hardy, Frank Lebano and Downtown DJ's - Photographers included Stephen Rudd, Neil Shannon Photography and Photography by GMC - Cake Makers included Chantilly Cakes and a Piece of Cake -   Other Vendors included Paper Players(Invitations), Tampa Calligraphy(Place Cards etc), Chocolates by Michelle (Dessert Chocolates and Fountains) - all linens were provided by Connie Duglin.
Many of the Brides we wowed with our Florals which were in the Coral Room - Don had chosen Black Table linen with Hot Pink Napkins so we used a selection of Hot Pink Flowers and lots of candles. We worked with the "feasting table" Don had provided  - it was some 16 feet long and 5 feet wide. The three styles of floral centerpieces worked well together but each can be used as a centerpiece in their own right. The arrangement of three cylinder vases with submerged hot pink roses and floating candles is one of your most popular styles and is very cost effective. The tall centerpiece we used as ourt focal point was lit from below by LED's and featured black curly willow and an assortment of hot pink flowers and wonderful greenery - we would be delighted to supply these or a slightly smaller version for your wedding. Our third arrangement was a more traditional style in a 6 inch by 6 inch cylinder vase - this can also be scaled down to a 5 inch vase and made slighly lower so your guests on a regular round banquet table can see each other. We used our 5 inch cylinder vase with rose petals and three small floating candles - these really looked great and gave out wonderful light. There are also some photos showcasing our flowers at the open house and also centerpieces we provided for a recent wedding with a ceremony at St Andrew's Chapel in Dunedin and the reception at the Rusty Pelican.
