Kissed By Snowflakes Debutante Ball 2010

WOW!

You had to be there to feel the atmosphere created in this room.

I have had so many wonderful comments

about the transformation of the

Gunnedah Town Hall

for this event....

The theme was

"Kissed by Snowflakes"

So it was important that the guests

attending could feel that kiss

when they walked into the room...

We had hundreds of glittery snow flakes

hanging from the ceiling to create that

kissed effect....

And we also bought the theme

onto the dance floor

with a specialised gobo...

We bought the theme to the tables as well

with these specially made

snowflake centerpieces.

I designed these specifically for the Ball in mind

and any kind of theme can be

transformed into an elegant centerpieces

We added a tea light to the middle

to accent the glitter.

The back of the room was also decorated

with the "Officials" table

having the Satin skirting

with organza draping and fairy lights.

I had this awesome garland

that contains crystals, pearl and lovely glittery

branches that looked wonderful

on the front of the table....

All the tables had a blue satin table runner

as Blue was the theme colour...

The hurricane lamp

was decorated with glittery branches

and sat on a mirror

Looking down on the table you can see the

table runners

and the snowflake centerpieces on the side with the candles

I also added the blue satin chair ties

to the Official Table

The cake table was decorated to match

but because we had to move the table

the lights we used

were battery operated

Balloons are a great way to bring the theme out

for an event....

I used light blue, silver and white pearl finish balloons

and also snowflake diamond clear balloons

in the arch that the Debs were presented through...

Add to the arch the

specialised lighting

provided by Jamie Sanson

of Stage and Sound Technology

and the whole presentation was fabulous

And all the lights

the backdrop

and the contrast with the blue curtains

made an awesome for photos

I also added coloumns with the balloons

that matched

and topped with the new

bubble balloons with snowflake print.

I added a couple of LED trees that i use at

wedding and call them

Money Trees....

We also used Pine trees

which we gathered from the private properties

of one of the Debs

to help create that wintery forest effect.

They were sprayed using the spray on snow...

and then draped with LED fairy lights.

I had about 8 columns around the room and

outside all up.

These ones were at the back of the room

and with the LED column behind them

really make them stand out

I had another column at the entrance to the

room via the side door

with a welcome sign

letting the guest know about the seating arrangements.

I dont think the band would have ever performed

on a stage as awesome as this one!!

ALL decorations for this event were the concept

of Jodi Dolbel

in the capacity of Co-Conveynor

for the Catholic Débutante Ball.

There was no payment for these services provided by Jodi Dolbel

All items provided were done so with good will

to help with the success of running this event

and all profits go to benefit the children of

the Gunnedah Combined Catholic Schools.

There were many parents of Débutantes

that gave of their time and their

expertise in making this night a huge success

for our girls.
