Hip Design by A Day Like No Other: Centerpieces for a Historic Factory Venue

Share

For a post-wedding dance party in a raw, historic industrial space with a somewhat gritty vibe, I designed centerpieces using very few florals – but instead lots of glow and reflection. I picked up the industrial history of the space with mirror bases and polished rocks (sprayed antique gold) and arranged dried branches and pods (some of them also discreetly gilded) together with grouped black/velvety-red roses. Antique-gold hurricanes and amber gems scattered on the mirrored bases lent extra reflection.

For smaller tables, I chose a variety of succulents in stark graphical shapes instead of vases:

Elegant still life with succulent candles and stones

The overall effect was one of intimate, golden light and retro-raw décor in the dimly lit dance hall – perfect!
