Crystal and her team at Yelp pulled off an amazing party at the Ayden Gallery in Vancouver’s Tinseltown.  Whoever didn’t register to attend this party missed out big!

There was even live painting going on by artist Mandy Tsung, one of Amy’s favourite local artists. Mandy’s work is so inspiring.

The vibe of the event was really cool, everyone was so friendly and Jeremy Lim was taking gorgeous pictures of all the Yelpers.

We had the fun pleasure of decorating the Ayden gallery with an Alice in Wonderland theme.

Guests entered the gallery exposed to Red Roses all over the place.  These red rose themed arrangements were inspired by the Red Queen from the movie.

When guests walked deeper into the gallery, they would then see two very tall white themed floral arrangements that were designed with white orchids, white lily’s, white hydrangea and white roses. Inspiration for this arrangement came from the white queen.

The flowers in the background below are inspired once again by the red queen, the arrangement was designed using red anthuriums, red roses, black feathers, burgundy leucadendron, red heliconia, curly willow and red gingers.

Having Fun at the EAT VANCOUVER event

Posted June 2nd, 2010 by Caley

GPF @ Eat Vancouver

This past weekend the Garden Party team had a great time decorating the three stages of the Eat Vancouver Food and Cooking Festival. Popular local restaurants, wineries, food and beverage manufacturers, cookbook authors, retailers, and artisans all gathered over three days to see Celebrity chef demonstrations, culinary competitions and to sample FREE food and drinks!

It was held at the new Vancouver Convention Centre West a familiar place for us as we’ve already done many events here since it’s opening not too long ago.

NEW Vancouver Convention Centre

We made elegant arrangements that compliment the colour theme of the Eat Vancouver stages and we had so many visitors say they loved it.

A simple arrangement was designed for the Wine Stage as we didn’t have to hide any ugly stoves with our floral designs.

For those of you who didn’t get a chance to come down to the waterfront, check out a few pictures of the booth we setup.

As you can see, we went with massive martini cups to go along with the Eat and Drinking theme. For the martini cup arrangement, we used white hydrangea, white peony’s, green hyrangea and white cymbidium orchids.

To match the carpets and drapery of the event, we designed a few burgundy arrangements in a black glass vase. For this arrangement, we used red charm peony’s and deep red roses. Nobody believed they were real!
