Description:
In this incredible collection of inspirational photos and ideas, floral designer Preston Bailey shares his invaluable experience of more than 20 years in creating the decor for celebrity and high-profile events and tells how to create an unforgettable wedding for brides and grooms-to-be.

With engaging text, Bailey guides the reader through the process of planning engagement parties and receptions, and explains how to bring diverse yet elegant elements together to compose the stunning environment of ones dreams. Beginning with large decisions, such as choosing a theme and transforming a wide array of spaces to fit the vision, he moves on to the details--centerpieces, arches, place mats, lighting, table settings, and more.

Throughout the book are luxe full-color photographs of nine weddings, with chapters that include a Glorious Glasshouse Fantasy, a Tropical Latin Fantasy, a Modern Metropolitan Fantasy, and a New England Waterfront Fantasy. Also included are nine design motifs from the Signatures by Preston Bailey line. Above all, Bailey encourages anyone planning a wedding, whether large or small, to allow creativity to blossom and have fun while designing their dream event.

Nice book, great photos - This is a beautiful book with great photos. It is in excellent condition too. Great ideas but as you probably know, Preston Bailey is very "Over-the-top" which there is nothing wrong with, just very expensive. This book gave me some wonderful "Knock-off" ideas however that will be very lovely.

Sugar Pie - This book is awesome,however, I am not able to do this caliber of work with florals or fabric. I saw this florist/event planner on Oprah show and signed on to Amazon to see if he had any books. I have been flower arranging for friends, family, work events and gifts. I have taken about four 8 week courses and two 2 day courses at a adult school and a extension course with a junior college. I believe these events are put on by people who are very wealthy and money is no object. I found these arrangements to be very insipirational and they help you to stretch your creative mind to think outside of the box. This man is the creme of the crop in the florist business.
