Hippo How To: 5 Looks from 1 Linen

How do you use one linen in five different ways to create a fabulously chic wedding?
When you pair Eileen Koen, a Party Rental Ltd. Sales Executive for 11 years
and her daughter Jess, it is safe to say that the results are going to be
a jaw-dropping beautiful wedding.

Party Rental Ltd. has many options to please any bride
who truly wants to customize their special day.
The inspiration is endless.” – Eileen Koen

Look 1 – Napkin Detail

My daughter chose charcoal gray and ivory as her primary colors.
Pops of purple and green would be accents in the flowers.
We both loved the beautiful, subtle pattern of the Jasper Floral Grey Linen.
The napkin and menu card placed on the Crystal Weave Glass Charger
was a perfect first impression for our guests
.

Look 2 – Floor length round

Since we were doing three different shape tables, it made sense to do three individual looks. The Jasper Floral Grey is available primarily in rounds. We both agreed that a round table would show the pattern to it fullest.”

Look 3 – Runner

There was plenty of room for the family at the long feast tables.
Custom made Jasper Floral Grey runners trailed down the center
of long rectangular tables
dressed in floor length Silver Shantung linens.

Look 4 – Sweetheart Table

My daughter and her husband sat at their own sweetheart table.
A smaller runner of Jasper Floral Grey was pinned to the edge of the half round table dressed in floor length Silver Shantung linen.
Extra fabric was used to create coordinating accent table shades.

Cozy Details
Silver Grey wraps for the ladies alternated with small Ivory Bengaline Chair Pillows
on Bone Reception Chairs with CB Silver Satin Cushions.

Look 5 – DIY-ish Lampshade Centerpiece

On the square tables, Eileen used glass pillar candle holders and turned them into gorgeous centerpieces. With just a few yards of fabric, Shades of Soho in Glen Rock created stunning lamp shades. The uber fabulous FOB converted solar garden lights into battery operated lights so the centerpieces stayed lit all evening.

With Eileen’s industry experience and exposure to top designers and caterers,
every detail was thought through by this talented mother daughter team.

Be inspired!
