Kate Spade Inspired Party by: Pearls and Spice Events W e took the ever popular clean and bold graphic style of Kate Spade New York as our jumping off point to create this fun and stylish event.  The stunning tablescape was filled with a number of DIY’s that gave the look of designer tableware but ensured we didn’t break the bank.  With a few jars of gold leaf paint we transformed ordinary paper lanterns into things of gilded beauty.  We used the same gold leaf to elevate ordinary wine and champagne flutes into gorgeous designer like stemware worthy of the most formal of occasion.  Plain old charger plates were treated with a coat of chalkboard spray paint that gave them a matte elegant look.   All of this sat atop a glittering gold sequin table cloth with bright pink runners added for a pop of color.   The sparkling palette of pink and gold, accented with bold black and white was carried over to the dessert table.  Stunning arrangements of roses and hydrangeas flanked each side of the table.  Edible 24k gold was used on all details of the desserts which lent them an air of decadence while tying perfectly into the theme.  Cake pops were brushed with gold and glitter and hand crafted sugar flowers adorned both the cakes and cupcakes.  No dessert table would be complete without the ever indulgent french macaron in various shades of pink.    Other highlights from the shoot include framed quotes from Kate Spade, customized menus and napkins tied in bows.   Vendor Credits: Styling: Pearls and Spice
