Fun and Fabulous: Purple and Black Rehearsal Dinner

This is the Holloway Rehearsal Dinner we did in August at Childer's Place in Amarillo. The theme of this was black and purple, which is fun and fabulous! Pam did the table design and the floral arrangements. I just helped with set-up, so I can't take the credit for this one.


Branches are another popular wedding/event trend. Here we used the same branches from the Garcia wedding. We grounded the branches in an urn filled with clear glass rocks, and hung tea candles in little vases from the branches. We also added a few smaller flower arrangements at the base. This demonstrates the concept of height variations again. As you see we alternated tables with tall branches and those with short flower arrangements.

Using colored tablecloths are a great way to add color to your event, without having to spend more money on a lot of flowers or other elements to add to the table. They help take away the "blah" from just a boring white tablecloth. We used a black and white runner to add some pattern to the table as well.

We used mason jars as our vases for the flowers which is a cute, inexpensive, and trendy idea! We added ribbon to embellish our jars for a little something extra. Lace is also popular to put around the jars, or even leaving them plain is just as cute.

Here is an example of a shorter centerpiece. You can use various heights and groupings of flowers and candles, and a picture frame was added for a personal touch.


Childers Place, which is a nursing home, is a great place to have a small reception or party, like a rehearsal dinner or birthday party. This outside courtyard area was beautifully landscaped with trees and flowers, and even has a stage. They also did the catering and it was delicious!



Check out Childers Place, which is near Medi Park, for your next event. And contact Jitters! for any of your design and planning needs!
