15 QUESTIONS + 15 ANSWERS AN INTERVIEW WITH MARIPOSA EVENT DECOR: A SWEET TOUCH FOR YOUR SPECIAL EVENT
2. What's your specialty and/or style?
My specialty are children birthday parties, but I am falling in love with weddings and quince sweet tables.
3. How much of a space do your designs can cover?
Tablescapes are typically a 6-8' table and work best with nice clean backdrop.
4. Are your designs "theme based"?
I like to consult with my clients as to how much "theme" they want to see in their table scape. Some clients provide their invitation or a character and we go from there. I like to involve my clients as much as they want to, so that in the end their vision, coached by my creativity, is the end result. Clients usually know exactly what they want, they just need someone to guide them.
5. In your designs, do you feature a certain color palette or is it more of a colorful combination of many?
Quinces and weddings pretty much have a color scheme that we follow. The décor of these events are also traditional with the center pieces and table linens being elegant and formal. A perfect spot to highlight the quinceaneras personality can be the sweets table as we can incorporate and showcase her favorite character. The same goes for a wedding sweets table. You can use this table to display pictures of the couple and even a place to hold the “Best Wishes Tree”.
The most noticeable difference between a sweets table for a quince or a wedding and that of a birthday party is the type of decoration and candy used. For a children's party you will see themed snacks, decorated juices, the birthday-themed cake, color coordinated candy, banner and such. These tables are much more whimsical and are 100% themed. A quince and wedding table décor calls for a much more formal approach.
