Masks + Mirrors | Masquerade Ball

As female-empowered as we are, it's no surprise that everyone at POSH is a little Beyonce obsessed (aren't we all?). After clicking through her gorgeous mother's 60th NOLA Masquerade party, we have been trying to come up with every excuse possible for an Art Deco inspired, behind-the-veil party of our own - and we certainly have the best tabletops for such a fete.

MIRROR, MIRROR

Who's behind the mask? Only a mirrored charger will give you a true glimpse. We love our new Mirrored Charger alone or layered high with a mix of silver and gold.

GOLDEN CHILD

Between Solange and Beyonce, it's hard to pick the golden child. But when it's our party, we'd make our guest play the part. POSH PLACE SETTING (Above, right): Gold Beaded Charger, Gold Leaf Dinner, Salad, and B&B Plate, Gold Lyons Flatware, Gold Floral Lace Stemware

 

Tabletop Tuesday: The Great Gatsby

 Featured in Top Design for Modern Luxury Brides, the always on point Todd Fiscus designed his own Great Gatsby tabletop around a palette of black, gold, silver, and lavender, mixed metals, and glorious floral arrangements. We imagine intimate conversations amid a crowd of fabulous people, delicious gastronomic confections served in dainty crystal pieces, and, of course, a well-heeled crowd. Daisy would approve.

Tabletop Tuesday: Baroque Beauty

Luxe be a lady. P.O.S.H. COUTURE RENTALS - Place Setting: Chocolate GEO Charger, Barcelona Gold Dinner Plate, Arte Italica Dinner Plate, Gold Lace "Hot Toddy" Demitasse (with raspberries), Dynasty 24K Gold Flatware, Royal Gold Water Goblet, Silver Goblet, Gold Lace Champagne Flute; Additional Serving Pieces: Gold Leaf Cordial, Silver Champagne Saucer/Compote Dish. Linen by LA TAVOLA FINE LINENS.

 
Inspired by Prada's Fall 2012 runway, Todd Fiscus designed a lavish tablescape for Dallas Bride on the idea of transitioning from fall to spring. We love the mixture of metals, gilded accents, and of course, baroque beauty - perfect for a true tastemaker or bride. According to Todd, in order to truly go baroque, "you have to take it 25 percent too far." Too far turns out to be too perfect.

Tabletop Tuesday: Fall Garden

This is an oldie but a goodie - a contemporary garden wedding reception at the Nasher perfect for a chilled, autumn evening. What makes this look so modern is the classic silver and gold tones used on everything from the linens to the flatware mixed with modern ghost chairs and floral arrangements. Very fitting for the Nasher, indeed. See more of this gorgeous reception on Style Me Pretty.

1. Head Table: The bridal table receives special seating and linens, all the better for guests to come and greet the newlyweds as well as for the couple to enjoy their friends and family. The perfect mod companion to this table? Kartell Louis Ghost Chairs from Resource One, exclusively at POSH Couture Rentals.
 2. Tabletop: A close up of the tabletop reveals the classic elements that make this look so timeless - Extreme Riedel glassware, Clear Glass Charger with Gold Rim, and Parisian flatware (all POSH Couture Rentals).
3. The luscious and luxurious scene: A nice touch here is the adding pashminas for guests on a chilly, autumn evening. 
4. Mixed Metals: A closer look at the glass chargers and glassware.
5. Details: You can't go wrong with fabulous florals and Bell'Invito paper goods.
