This week, we’re looking back on not a wedding, but a 70th birthday party! We had the pleasure of contributing to this intimate dinner party, planned by Sarah of Keestone Events, with floral arrangements. Keestone Events planned out gorgeous details for this event, from leather menu cards to etched glassware. We had a blast tackling this special project, and love the idea of celebrating big milestones like this with a carefully curated party that shows off the guest of honor’s personality!

We decorated the tables with dynamic arrangements and bud vases, all in a stunning moody color palette. We featured blooms such as black Sunflowers, blueberry roses, and purple Dahlias. We love any opportunity to play with lots of various textures, and the size of these arrangements created a lot of interest on the tables and helped create an intimate atmosphere.

Even with a scaled back floral setup, adding one or two extra arrangements throughout the space, like we did at the entry table, can easily create cohesion. This event is a great example of choosing an intimate and upscale vibe with lots of sophisticated and personal details over a larger guest count and bigger space with fewer special, personal touches. Especially for an occasion like a 70th birthday, opting for this intimate option can make for such a memorable afternoon or evening with close friends and family!
