On this week’s Complete Function Hire blog, we were delighted to chat to Ruwini Gelo from Adore Every Detail. Adore Every Detail is a boutique event agency with a passion for all things event styling and design.

The creative team of event gurus at Adore Every Detail quite literally, ADORE EVERY DETAIL of your event – it’s all the fine details that create a lasting impression. Adore Every Detail specialise in delivering event perfection and we were thrilled to find out about their event style predictions for the festive season.

What are your event style predictions for Christmas and the festive season?

Roving and canapé style events are still popular options for Christmas and end of year celebrations, with unique, alternative takes on traditional favourites.

Decadently styled grazing and food stations have also featured prominently this year and will be favoured alternatives to traditional sit-down events, particularly for end of year functions.

Niche experiences as part of an event, such as dress up themes or unique photo walls, continue to play a key role at events, particularly with our ever increasing love for sharing personal experiences via social media.

What colours, textures and features will be popular event style choices this Christmas?

Fairly neutral and monochrome colour palettes will feature more prominently this festive season. Think shades of white to grey, with hints of dark green and a touch of metallic, or varying shades of greens paired with earthy browns. Authentic, natural textures will feature, incorporating a touch of naturistic elements such as feathers, shells, dried florals and branches, matched with modern, elegant plateware and props. Keeping with the 2017 minimalistic trend, stand-out features, such as unique styled centrepieces or decorative elements will feature as stand-alone pieces.

What do you think makes a Christmas party really special?

Good food and excellent company are a must for any great party, but let’s not underestimate the importance of ambience at an event! Creating an overall sensory experience through styling the setting to suit the event, plays a key role defining the mood of the function. From beautiful plateware and place cards, to tailored seating and cutlery, the finer details play a crucial part in creating lasting, memorable experiences.

What’s new at Adore Every Detail?

We have recently completed a bold, romantic styled shoot with a number of amazing vendors, featuring dramatic tones and deep hues paired with touches of softness and feminine overtones. I look forward to sharing this hopefully very soon!
