Baby Shower at La Valencia Hotel
In an all blue, sparkly silver and angelic theme, Lounge Appeal designs an amazing baby shower in honor of Kristy Griggs, who is expecting her first son in January 2012. It took place at the gorgeous Veranda Terrace at the La Valencia Hotel in La Jolla, CA. The invitations, menus, place cards and all paper goods were designed by Alchemy Fine Events & Invitations
.
We used the 8ft. long by 4ft. wide King’s dining tables from the Royal Collection. They are white, high-gloss lacquer and fabulous when put together to create a long, dramatic table for a large number of guests. This shower was attended by 30 of Kristy’s favorite ladies, all instructed to wear a shade of blue in honor of the baby boy, Forrest Clinton Griggs V (Jack). We then paired them with crystal clear chivari chairs for the guests, and capped the head of the table with the Couple’s Throne. for the Mom-to-be.
FloralWorks, the floral and event design division of Raphael’s created the 32 foot long center floral arrangement, made from fresh hydrangeas, in a white to deep blue graduation on top of a long, shiny silver table runner to give the tablescape a very posh, ombré look and fit within the white and blue angelic theme.
The signature drink was the “Baby Blue Bubbly”, served from the white tufted patio bar. The corner lounge was cobalt blue suede, with mirrored table accents from the Royal Collection. Sparkly photo frames and glitter on the cupcakes from CupCake Love gave that special touch!
Each place setting was adorned with specialty chocolate favors, with silver sparkle angels by SoBelle Chocolate Favors. Guests took them home as a special treat. The day was a gorgeous 75′F outside, and the veranda setting with the ocean in the background made guests feel like they were lunching together somewhere on the Italian Almafi coast. Towards the end of the shower, after presents were opened and enough champagne and cupcakes were consumed, little white and yellow butterflies fluttered above the floral centerpiece. It was one gorgeous day, and an honor to celebrate baby Jack!

Glittering Metallics define this year’s Holiday Season
“Metallic, shiny, translucent fabrics and colors create a glow and an aura of glamour that suits a fabulous lifestyle” Adele Mars, a buyer for Donna Karan NYC explains. Lounge Appeal incorporates this in the glamourous Royal Collection of furniture, beautifully styled together in a recent photoshoot in downtown San Diego, at the Culy Warehouse. Shown below is our Christmas table setting and furniture that creates a rich, warm atmosphere for holiday dining with loved ones. Tablescape desgned by Couture Events & Lounge Appeal.
The amazing concrete brick walls and wooden rafters of the Culy Warehouse allows for a nice contrast of a rustic setting for such glittering holiday decor. Deep red suede chaise lounges and ottomans combined with classic gold and accented with mirrored tables and cozy shag rugs create a luxurious holiday living room setting.
All the glitters certainly isn’t just gold, but the allure of metallics prove to be this season’s hot commodity from the Fall runways in the fashion captials of the world, Milan Paris and New York to the special event industry in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Diego. “Elle Tahari is synonymous with attention to detail, and this season is no different as we incorporate handcrafted metallic looks. metallics are a modern solution to dressing up,” Nancy Price, the Manager at the Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace explains. For this photoshoot, we combined a high shine silver, glitter and crystals for a very Winter Wonderland look. Our “Snow Queens” wore white vintage fur coats (faux) and long, winter white gowns.

Metallic Glamour defines Warner Bros. recent backlot event and Lounge Appeal’s new Royal Collection
Gold and Silver Lamé fabrics, swovarski crystal tufting, stamped crocodile metallics and lots of mirrored tables completed the 2011 International Screenings Event hosted by Warner Bros. Studios and again produced by the amazing Hillary Harris and her team.
When grouping this furniture, add elements from the worlds of runway fashion and rock glam to complete a chic, edgy look.
Leather studs, mirrored or leather end tables, black chandeliers and canopies, and contemporary vases all work – nothing is too over-the-top when going glam!
The best thing about trendsetters is we all see the world differently. Even if you use the same elements as Hillary did, your glam rock look and endless Lounge Furniture possibilites with the Royal Collection will make your event cutting edge in the events industry and just so Diva Rock Glam! That’s what it’s all about! Embrace your individuality and your design will engage, delight and influence others.
Our favorite piece in this layout is the Queen Ottoman in stamped silver croc with swovarski crystal buttons and tufting. Lounge Appeal plans to add more of these ottomans into inventory very soon, in all colors, textures and with different detailing.

An intimate beach dinner at sunset with Lounge Apppeal’s Royal Collection
This was one of the most fun and creative photoshoots Lounge Appeal has done in a long time. Partering up with mastermind designer Vanessa Van Wieren of Alchemy Fine Events & Invitationswas a dream, as she created a beach chic tablescape that was both glamourous and natural.
Vanessa went straight to infamous designer Diane Von Furstenburg’s Home Collection for an eclectic mixture of solid, smooth, patterened and textured pieces in lamé, porcelin and wooden materials.
Gold metallic lamé “Majesty Thrones” and “Imperial bench” was showcased from Lounge Appeal’s Royal Collection, in addition to the foundation piece – the 8 foot long high gloss white “King’s Dining Table”.
Isari Flower Studio of Solana Beach created the gorgeous fuschia, scarlet and blushtone floral centerpieces, along with the mirrored accents and crystal candle holders. South Ponto Beach in Carlsbad served as the perfect backdrop to this sunset setup. Only thing needed is some champagne on ice, a few lobster tails and good friends and you have yourself the most memorable and fashionable beach dinner of your life!
