Event Styling

Last week's project was for a very special couple - Fahmy & Syikin- who bravely came to us more than a year ago, persuading us to style their wedding venue, despite us not having a prior wedding decor portfolio. We were close to refusing them, but their trust and determination got the better of us :) And not only did we find ourselves committing, we actually agreed to style both their separate venues! We got really dreamy and busy, but enjoyed all the hassle and drama cos both Fahmy and Syikin were so awesome to work with...every stylist's dream!
(Thanx guys, for the trust, patience and understanding. Suffice it to say, both of you were the impetus for our newest venture...and the inertia that pushed us beyond our old boundaries and comfort zones.)

So here's to the most awesome couple. 
Sorry we couldnt take nicer proper pictures though.

First up will be Fahmy's Sleek and Classy Black & White
We conceptualized an overall style that would allow Fahmy's guests to feel transported into an atmosphere...one that would personify his classy yet humble style and his polished yet cool personality. Rather than over decorating this spacious void deck with senseless props, we worked around the existing infrastructure to create a meaningful style. The white walls and beams were incorporated into our design...we didnt get them all masked up with yards and yards of cheap cloths and props. We studied the space with which we were assigned to style, before suggesting a concept that would best bring out the space's natural beauty.
A Postcard for the lovely couple...
To add depth and texture to this all-white space and to complement the sleek white tulle curtains, mum designed and sewed the double tiered table lining, using only the most suitable material, to elicit that all-important flow. That's how detailed and exclusive we are. Even when there was a last minute request to add more tables, mum personally sewed more linings on-site. No one-size-fits-all lining for us please.
And we focused on fine details, gorgeous accents, high quality materials and the monogrammed backdrop to hopefully add class to the the black and white layout.

Our clients' events are always personal.
We collaborated with Haz Workz to produce a gorgeous monogrammed backdrop

No flowers and plants were too plain or common.

For Syikin, we worked on a Chic Garden concept. 
A marriage of sophistication, calmness, femininity and natural beauty, which we think personifies her
A gorgeous fountain and floral garden set against a romantic entrance of stoned columns, french doors, english panels and chic parisian monograms.
The guests area, all cosied up with beautiful bamboo pergolas, the finest dreamy white tulle curtains, high quality table linens, expensive ribbons, gorgeous chiavaris and feminine centrepieces.  Too bad our low quality mobile-camera-photos couldnt do justice to the real set-up.
We used the oddly located wall beams at Syikin's void deck to our advantage. We transformed the tight spaces into several cozy corners, accenting the areas with standing lamps, english curtains and english panels.

Loving our english panels and dreamy silk curtains
And to up the exclusive factor, we made them their own personalised monogrammed french door. We know we had spies taking pics of our monogrammed french door, among other things...so we're posting these pics up to save them the trouble :O If you're ever inspired, just be sure to give credit where it's due yea ;)

More romantic and cozy corners....
And that's all for now. 
Stay Beautiful, people :)

And the morning after....
We had our comfort food for breakfast, amidst all our props. Loving the beautiful mess and the gorgeous orchids we got from our team comrades, Isyam and Fadeli :)
Our biggest gratitude to our small but solid team!
Loved all the hassle, laughter, fun and unity.
To many more good times....
