‘Tis the season for fun, parties, love and laughter, and for those of you who may be planning a winter wedding next year or a gathering of all your loved ones this year, you’re sure to be inspired by these amazing ideas from celebrity event designer Preston Bailey. Preston is known for his fabulous flair and jaw-dropping décor. He’s designed the weddings for Sean Parker, LeBron James and George Soros. And his clients include the Trumps (both father and daughter, Ivanka) Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Hudson and Joan Rivers. It’s no wonder these top celebs call upon Preston to work his magic!
Winter Wonderland
Here, Preston created a snowy-white forest accented with sparkling silver. It’s every snow queen’s fantasy!
The master himself:
Ornaments of shimmering silver and frosted white grace a white floral tree and nestle amidst a bevy of blooms on a silver table. Can’t you just picture a glistening snowfall?
Classic Christmas
For those who prefer a more traditional look, Preston incorporates red, green and gold to decorate a festive holiday table.
Green favor boxes sit atop napkins, and pretty presents for guests rest on the chair seats.
A row of silver containers, each filled with red blooms and greenery and accented with pinecones and gold ornaments, lends a dramatic look to the table.
A gold and red runner atop a red paillette-detailed tablecloth is the perfect backdrop for centerpieces and clusters of green votives.
On another table, gold vases and seasonal gourds interspersed with red and green flowers and mini ornaments lend a rich, opulent feel.
A red wreath with a gold organza bow is the perfect choice for the back of a chair, as is a pine bough detailed with red and gold ornaments.
And a towering tree branch covered with red and green foliage, dangling crystals and red ornaments is sure to dazzle guests.
Thank you, Preston, for these inspiring ideas! And I hope you enjoy decorating your own homes and have a fabulous time celebrating the season.
