<P><FONT face=Arial>Harlequin Marquees invited a glittering list of guests to its spectacular event in celebration of receiving the Event Solutions Spotlight Award that named Carmen Clews International Event Professional of the Year.

<TD colSpan=2><OD>
<P><FONT face=Arial>The event area featured more intimate lounge areas indoors as well as a canopied lounge on the lawn of the venue. Harlequin displayed the theme of white, diamonds and bling in every aspect of the event, proclaimed “the event of the season” by attendees and media, and immersed its guests in an environment that truly celebrated Harlequin’s success.<BR></FONT></OD></P></TD></TR>

<P><FONT face=Arial>Moroccan-style lanterns with glass stones were commissioned by Clews. The lanterns cast patterns of light that were repeated in crystal tattoos adorning the models offering champagne from the living tables.</FONT></P>
<LI>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Harlequin introduced white star cloth, from the U.K., by draping the starry fabric from the ceiling of the tent. The star cloth showcased the patterns from the lanterns rather than overshadowing them.</FONT></P>
<LI>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Global spheres entwined with calla lilies and covered in crystals sparkled at heights on top of the bar.</FONT></P>
<LI>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Harlequin designed and fabricated a centrally located bar, one of a number of focal points that assured gracious, timely service to the guests. Also, champagne was served from several spectacular living tables strategically placed throughout the room.</FONT></P>
<LI>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Moonlights, from Germany, are battery-operated and varied in size from centerpiece-size to those almost large enough to use as seats. Harlequin placed the Moonlights along pathways and around the lawns to create a luminous glow that invited guests to explore the outdoor aspects of the event.</FONT></P></LI></OL>

<TD><BR>A great way to stretch the budget is to either spray paint mix-matched ornaments to the desired color you want. The matte finished ornaments look more expensive and can be mixed with shiny. For simple round ornaments, shop discount stores (walmart. target, kmart). You can easily get 6-12 round glass ornaments for under $5.00; than use the rest of your budget on more expensive pieces. <BR><BR>Another great idea is to use the economical ornaments you have add enhance them. Get a white feather boa and cut it into small 2 inch pieces and hot glue the to the top of a colored ornament. You can also use a sharpie pen in either black, silver or gold and draw swirls on your budget ornaments. You can add words, family names, sayings, etc. <BR>Do this on about 1/4 of your ornaments. <BR><BR>Try mixing in different sizes of ornaments. This can give your tree more dimension. I also recommend adding in light and dark variations of the colros you are decorating in. <BR></TD>
