Fabulous Furnishings Plus the Freshest Floral Design Equals Maximum Impact
Phoenix, AZ. January 19, 2011. Just when you think you’ve seen it all, get ready for this year’s Special Event in Phoenix, AZ. AFR Event Furnishings, the industry’s leading furniture rental company, has partnered with Touch of Paradise, South Florida’s finest floral design firm, to create multiple, magical, “must-see” vignettes for all to behold.
A fragrant feast for all of the senses is what will welcome guests when they step into AFR’s expertly outfitted and adorned 20- by 20-foot booth. Capitalizing on “Alternative Dining”, which is currently strong on both local and national levels, AFR has selected South Florida’s “best kept secret”, floral designer Steven Duke of Touch of Paradise, to add bold and enchanting floral statements into the overall ambitious and beautiful setup.
“We couldn’t be happier to have Touch of Paradise on our side,” says Tricia Schmitt, Director of Marketing, AFR Event Furnishings. “After working alongside Steven Duke and Robert Tamayo at various events, we feel positive that their talent far surpasses all others. Their intense creativity coupled with their willingness to be completely involved makes them… irresistible.”
Reps from across the country—Dallas, Las Vegas, Miami, Orlando, New York, New Jersey, Washington D.C., North Carolina, and Philadelphia will be on-hand to educate excited buyers about AFR’s freshest new collections and how they can be used. Duke will also be close by to share his insight and inspiration regarding his extraordinary floral designs.
But this is only the beginning. AFR has again generously agreed to sponsor the show’s Attendee Lounge. This year, deciding to showcase its capabilities thrice, the 20- by 50-foot lounge will be broken into corporate, wedding, and social vignettes. Utilizing Beautiful Backdrops to set the scene, furnishings will be enhanced by the striking floral creations from Touch of Paradise. Each area will feature its own furnishings, style, and overall look. From a staged corporate setting to the palatial wedding wonderland, it is the “Inspired India” social setting that surely showcases “trend” at its freshest. This exotic, exquisite respite from the hustle and bustle of the show invites guests to “get enveloped” in the brilliant colors, bask in the best looking (and most comfortable) furnishings the industry has to offer, and breathe in the aromas of purest, sweetest florals.
“We feel so fortunate to be able to work so closely with AFR on such a relevant tradeshow,” says Steven Duke, Creative Director, Touch of Paradise. “They selected us to add in the nuances and special touches that ensure unique event style. We are grateful to Atlas Party Rental and Full Pot of Flowers, who’ve let us utilize their product for this endeavor and have been amazing to work with. To be allowed so much creative freedom on such a complex project is a gift…a gift we take quite seriously.”
With these upscale, highly motivated companies working hand-in-hand, there can only be one outcome: perfection. Do not miss it. January 25th to January 29th, 2011, Phoenix, AZ.
