Merigue - Best Overall Design


The Perfect Petal and Epicurian Catering are so proud to be the winners at this year's ISES Wedding Showcase for Best Overall Design in the Fantasy Tables Competition. The concept of this table sprung from vintage carnival inspiration, bold color themes, and a desire to be playful, modern and innnovative.


First we drew from elements that excited us : Stunning vintage umbrellas, our own personal collections of vintage cameras, old black and white photographs, handmade playful top hat lamps... and gathered them together to create a cohesive modern design with a strong nod to the past.





The space was accented by an iron gazebo illuminated with bistro lights, and all tables were adorned with lush linens and ribbons in bold yellow, gray, black and white.



Something we try to communicate with our clients, when concepting a wedding, is that the impact is in the details. Thoughtful design is about more than a beautiful floral centerpiece, it's about all the elements on a table coming together to tell a story. This is something we really wanted to express with Meringe.


Felted mustaches attached to yellow and white stripe straws bring in an old time carnival flare - and show off a bride and grooms sense of humor.


Bright yellow billy balls and football mums mingle with blooming acacia and climbing passion vine.


Lemons, old fashions candies, and meticulously designed name tags and graphic elements tie the scene together.

No wedding would be complete without a killer bridal bouquet- this sassy little number has bright yellow tulips, billy balls and romantic garden roses, accented with a dramatic gray and white striped ribbon collar.



And, of couse, we had a lot of FUN!!



Thank you ISES Denver!!
