Museum of Flight - Around the World!

Here's a great event from the holidays at the Museum of Flight that was a Around The World theme for a multicultural audience. We took over the museum and each area became a different country. Light post directional signage was created so guests knew where to head for each theme.

Every country had a themed buffet & bar, seating area with coordinating linens, centerpieces(lots of our floral!), and vignettes from our extensive decor collection (like our 14' tall Eiffel Tower replica, a rickshaw with lanterns, Miss Liberty, our rustic wine barrel bar, our Glow Bars & so much more...!).

Here's your trip around the world PJ Hummel and Company style at the Museum of Flight!

The Seattle Wedding Show 2012

Whew! We had an action packed weekend at our very first Seattle Wedding Show. We created an Indian inspired mandap look. One of our customers remarked, “now I know what the inside of I Dream of Genie’s bottle looks like!” We we’re expecting the show to be very white & colorless so we chose to be bold. We opted a eye-popping pallet of berry pink, shimmering tangerine orange, with metallic gold and vintage rust accents. Our choices paid off, no one else in the show was even remotely similar to our booth.

This year, we collaborated & combined booths with Art of Floral so that we could create one cohesive showcase of our specialties. AOF created elaborate tropical arrangements which crowned our “Big Mama” candelabras, as well as exotic pillar arrangements for the outside entries of the booth.

The highlight of our booth were our diamond tufted gold thrones and our new gold crochet sequin linens. Metallic’s are one of our favorite trends of the new year. We mixed the sparkly new with the vintage character of antique Persian rugs, rusted topiaries & lanterns.

Our multilayer booth consisted of a pink satin backdrops embellished with diamond beaded drapes and shimmering orange swagging. An illumines canopy of more orange sheer drape accented with golden tassels topped our opulent display and created a soothing place to rest your eyes from the expo hall’s fluorescent lighting.

We love tradeshows because they allow us to showcase our favorite new ideas and designs, and this show was no disappointment. We were overwhelmed by positive responses from friends old and new. We can hardly wait to see what new projects this opulent showcase will bring us.

Two Flavors at Fremont Studios

This is one of our favorite events of the 2011 holiday season! It was the marriage of two very different concepts that made for one magical night.

A Winter Dream Circus was the first stop for guests with aerialists pouring drinks from the ceiling and a forest of silver glitter trees! The entire room was lit in blue to accent the white decor. Ostrich feather bouquets topped three foot tall glass vases to highlighted the room's buffets. Two bar stations consisted of our glow bars with white satin and beaded drape backdrops, and a moon chair photo-op was set up for guests to remember the night!

Trading cold hues for a warm and vibrant color pallet, guests would next find themselves in a strikingly different Exotic Moroccan Escape. We utilized Fremont Studios architecture and created a lounge under an elegant triple canopy with metal lanterns suspended from it. Our Kick-back line of furniture sat on vintage Persian rugs and ethnic throw pillows were tossed every where! The white curved wall was lit in a bright fuchsia that accented the other side of the room which was striped in blueberry, plum, and gold satin drape. Tables were dressed in our copper crush linens and umbrella centerpieces topped every surface.

So much detail and time went into this event! We thank CRG Events for including us on their team, and Fremont Studios for providing the lighting and making our decor look fabulous!

Silver & Gold Holiday

Make New Friends but Keep the Old
One is Silver and the Other Gold


Here's a Holiday party we just did, a disco theme at it's finest!

The cocktail reception was dressed in glittering gold! Guests warmed up with drinks served from our glow bars wrapped in fluttering golden foil and sat on regal furniture upholstered in metallic materials. Gold draping and holographic curtains hung on the walls, golden crochet linens graced the tables, and the whole room was lit in warm candle light.

Taking the disco theme to a whole new level, the dining area was decorated completely in silver! Glitter, mirrors and holographic accessories combined with mood lighting made this space feel like a club straight out of the 1970s. We are in love with our new silver eyelash linens that embellished the dinning tables. We also design custom programs that alternated from silver to gold at each place setting.

To complete the evening, we set up a holographic photo-booth for guests to remember the perfect night behind them.

New Trend: Metallic! New Linens

We are all about metallics this year! We think that disco parties will be in high demand. One of our favorite holiday parties coming up is called, "Make new friends but keep the old, one is SILVER & the other GOLD!" The reception will be decorated floor to ceiling in metallic gold, followed by a reveal into the main ballroom which will be draped and decorated all in silver holographic. We can hardly wait to see it. There will be photos to share later!
