Spring is the perfect time of year to take advantage of fresh lilacs that grow throughout the Midwest & Northeast. The heady scent and luxurious colors, combined with lush textures are the foundation of a memorable event.

- NEXT: Add warmth with creamy whites and light golden tones.
- THEN: Keep the place settings simply, and bring in soft light with colored taper candles.
- LAST: Lean into lush arrangements and bouquets in your spring palette, and accent with silk and velvet ribbons.
