Holiday on Prism at the Village Apartment Homes in Irvine Spectrum
On Saturday Dec 19th We had the pleasure of setting up the annual Holiday on Prism street fair at the Village Apartment Communities of the Irvine Company. Nicole Harmonson, the Activities Director of the Village had a vision of making it snow here in Southern California. We set out to recreate a feeling of christmas and the holiday seasons for the residents here in Irvine. The Street Fair, included the involvement of some local food retailers in our local community. Sounds were provided by Persiano's very own DJ NAZ and the atmosphere was filled with joy and laughter through out the night.

Park Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles
Los Angeles Wedding Location
607 South Park View Street
Los Angeles, CA 90057
Contact: Catering Department
Phone: 213/381-6300 x102
An architectural, tour de force the opulent Park Plaza embodies the rich and decadent boomtown times of Los Angeles before the 1929 stock market crash. Built in 1925 (it was originally an Elks Lodge), the Hotel languished into a lamentable state of disrepair during the 80s and 90s. Fortunately, it’s been rescued from ruin by the same folks who refurbished the Oviatt. Finishing touches on the extensive facelift were completed in October of ’99.
Don’t expect to hold a shy and demure event here. The sheer scale and splendor of the building calls for affairs on the grander end of the spectrum. Big weddings, band premieres and corporate Christmas parties are equal to the Park Plaza’s sensibility.
Hold onto your hat when exploring this location, because much of your time will be spent with head tipped back, ogling its many wonders. Occupying almost an entire city block, the building’s façade is embellished by a series of arches, pilasters, cornices and majestic friezes featuring intriguing statuary of Roman women. This neoclassical motif is carried over to the inside as well. Enchanting you from the moment you step across the transom is the Park Plaza Lobby, a cathedral-like space with a Romanesque vaulted ceiling at least three stories high. Sunlight streams through the immense Palladian glass doorway and fanlight, burnishing the Tennessee-rose granite floor.
The Park Plaza offers a plethora of exhilarating event sites. On the ground floor is the Gold Ballroom, the Park’s most intimate space. Just right for cocktails or small seated dinners, this space boasts dark wood wainscoting, tasseled antique chandeliers and Corinthian pilasters whose tops are crowned in gleaming gold leaf. Equally gorgeous is the Bronze Ballroom, featuring burgundy wall-to-wall carpeting, a mammoth Art Deco bar, hand-stenciled ceiling beams and fantastic columns gilded in copper leaf. On the room’s south side, glass doors open out onto the Tuscan Garden. This private open-air courtyard, filled with greenery and flower planters, is a beautiful setting for exchanging vows.
Take the magnificent stairway up from the Lobby, turn left and you’ll encounter our favorite event site—the Grand Ballroom. It is, in a word, spectacular. On either side of the room twin colonnades create a linear dynamism, drawing the eye along the length of the room. The meticulously restored beamed ceilings showcase hand-painted floral designs, patterned after a palace ceiling in Florence. Chandeliers suspended from the beams spotlight these amazing works of art. Not to be outdone is the Terrace Room, the hotel’s most capacious ballroom. Art Deco in motif, and featuring elaborate wall sconces and a ceiling of dizzying height, this vast multilevel space can accommodate almost any kind of pageantry you can dream up.
One of Los Angeles’ best kept secrets, the Park Plaza has become THE place for film shoots, record launchings, wrap parties and Hollywood bashes. In fact, at a birthday party for a “recently arrived” star, the hotel was packed with glitterati. And even these jaded, been-everywhere-done-everything luminaries could be overheard exclaiming: “I never knew this place existed; it’s SO beautiful!”
The secret is out…

Cobalt Blue Crush Satin Linens
This set up was done back in April at Hotel Laguna in laguna Beach california. The Hotel is one of the oldest buildings in the city and has a romantic ocean view from their ballroom called the Laguna Room. Most brides and grooms love to have their wedding ceremony on the sand. What a better place than the heart of Downtown Laguna Beach?
We did a combo of Cobalt Blue Crush Satin linens with white standard chair covers and Midnight Blue Organza Sashes.
Enjoy!

Sophia approached us earlier this year on a project that was near and dear to her and her friends. She came to our showroom in Irvine and we sat and talked for a bit.
I was truly impressed by her character. She asked if we can be the arm and muscle of her dream event for Boys Town of California. After understanding a bit about the organization, We realized it would be a great opportunity for us to create a magical night for those who are the magic behind the success and work of Boys Town of California.
Sophia and I began to create a plan around her Arabian Nights Themed event. For those that have not planned big gala's for fundraisers I would recommend that you contact Sophia and request her to provide you with her services!
She was extremely attentive to the needs of Boys Town and she was able to direct and relay the proper message to our team to ensure the highest quality of work. She managed to put togther a team of volunteers to help with ensuring every little detail and work was completed in due time.
Persiano attempted to create a design element to create a flow from the auction site outdoors to the gala indoors. A great extend of Rich Orange and Red Tafetta Fabric was used outside for the tenting, along with accent pillows in bright orange, moss green and Deep reds.
Beautiful Moss Green and Ivory Satin Crush table cloths were used with Moroccan style lanterns as centerpieces on the many cocktail tables in the courtyard at the Fairmont Hotel in Newport Beach.
Authentic Moroccan style puffs(ottomans) and copper and brass tables were brought in to add a few lounge like areas for seating in front of the waterfall.
