One of the hardest things in design is knowing when to stop. It's so easy to go overboard, adding too many colors, too many disparate elements -- and winding up with a mess.
One of our favorite designs for party work is to take a single flower and use it en masse, as shown here with these Calla lily troughs designed in mirrored boxes.
Set onto a long dining table with votive candles, these arrangements will add a stunning elegance to the ambiance.
Modern and clean, white is always a great choice for centerpieces, but another great choice is yellow!

We designed these centerpieces with only two elements; orchids and roses. When using bright colors, it's best to keep the color palette to a max of two, otherwise it can look like a carnival. Imagine this arrangement with another shade (like purple) and you can see what I mean.
