An engaging evening at White Box, Publika

Hello again, dear readers! We hope you have been enjoying the recent Real Wedding posts that we have published, and maybe some of you are drawing inspiration for your big day or for a treasured event. Or maybe you are like us, browsing pictures of pretty flowers and decor simply because we love looking at pretty things :)

Today, we have a blog post on an engagement party that we decorated a little while ago. Many thanks to The Photoz for the lovely pictures! This event's venue was White Box at Publika, in Kuala Lumpur.



We teamed up with Leticia of Elysium Weddings to put together this wonderful evening of joy and celebration. With just one week to prep for this event, there was no time to waste! And we couldn't have found a better partner than Elysium Weddings to work on such a tight deadline. Fortunately, our bride-to-be was clear about what she wanted and what she liked.

A cosy, stylish setting with a Renaissance-inspired ambiance was what we wanted. There would be trees and white florals, an idea inspired by David and Victoria Beckham's wedding some 13 years ago. But nothing over-the-top, she reminded.





The drapes, portraits in gilded frames and the "living room" with a fireplace and couches were arranged by Elysium Weddings. For the trees that our bride-to-be wanted, we used natural curly branches decorated with Taiwan ivy, hanging tealights and organza butterflies.



Stylish black-and-gold chairs lined both sides of two long banquet tables, that sat 100 specially-invited guests. For that evening we created 16 trees that sat atop the tables.





At the base of each of the 16 trees we created centerpieces from our bride-to-be's favorite blooms: white parrot tulips, white hydrangea and white mathiola. Between trees across the tables, we added loads of baby's breath that were also designed to hold tealight candles. We are really liking the use the baby's breath on its own, instead of traditionally using it as a filler for arrangements. There is so much elegance in its simplicity, don't you think? And so pretty too!
