EVENT OVERVIEW Guests are invited to celebrate the engagement of

Kimber Wilson and Hunter James in the historic

distillery district of downtown Toronto. The night

will begin with a dusk arrival at the Boiler House

Loft. During cocktails, the theme of rustic elegance

will be apparent with the use of paradoxical

materials. Amongst wooden walls, satin and flax

burlap linens will be paired with birch various

metal table décor such as silver and rose gold. The

guests will be seated for a romantic plated dinner

under beautiful mood lighting and a sea of

hanging floral centerpieces. The room, though

very lush and bold, will not be overwhelming, as

the colour palette will remain neutral and light

with splashes of metallic dynamics balanced by

natural birch elements.

CLIENT PROFILE Kimber and Hunter are two professionals who live

and breathe the Toronto city life through both

work and play. Their relationship began with a

date among the beautiful cobblestone streets of

the downtown distillery district, so where better to

celebrate the promise of spending the rest of their

lives together, than the place where it all began.

Hunter grew up in a rural town north of the city,

so the artful uses of birch and wood materials are a

nod to a part of his personality and style that

remain in his world today. As a breast cancer

survivor, the colour pink resonates with Kimber

very deeply. The use of rose gold cutlery and vases

will provide a unique way of displaying her

connection to this colour without bringing

imbalance to the overall look and feel of the

design.

THEME The theme of this event as requested by the clients, is that of romance and rustic elegance. This will be attained by close attention to detail and a colour

theme of ivory, light beige, taupe as well as silver, bronze and rose gold metallic. A paradoxical theme will be emphasized by the way the satin & burlap

linens are custom draped with added frills of fabric at each corner and with the use of straw place mats, sparkly chargers, white china and rose gold cutlery.

There will be an intended asymmetry to compliment the theme of opposing materials. The hanging centrepieces will play with different heights with the use

of large balance scales and mixed crystal glassware will vary the site lines of each tablescape. Soft candle lighting and exquisite floral arrangements will

complete with newly engaged couples dream celebration.

5



VENUE The venue that Kimber and Hunter have chosen to celebrate their engagement at is a newly renovated area above the Distillery District called The Boiler

House Loft. The interior is very warm and inviting with it’s exposed wood walls and soft lighting. The wooden ceiling beams are reminiscent of a barn or

wine cellar, which plays well with the rustic elegance theme of the event. The Loft is perfect for an intimate gathering as it will comfortably seat 64 guests at

8 rectangular tables of 8 people. The raw space lends to the theme and design details of the décor will not be lost in this cozy atmosphere.

CENTERPIECE & FLORALS Tall, silver, grandiose balance scales will hang two floral arrangements at the center of each table. Ivy will hang from the arrangements creating a romantic

and natural look. The base of the centrepiece will be surrounded by two birch vases holding smaller arrangements of the flowers above. To top off the

romantic and elegant theme, candles will be scattered amongst the tables, in glass votives, bouncing soft light off of the surrounding metals.

ABOUT THE DESIGNER Krista Kulbach is an Event

Management student in the School of

Fashion at Seneca College. Her love of

design is being cultivated while

working towards furthering her skills in

a logistical capacity. Krista graduated

with a Bachelor of Arts from Wilfrid

Laurier University where she majored in communication

studies.

Country raised and city found, Krista was raised in the

suburbs of a small town surrounded by farmland where

the largest event that took place was the Sports Day

Country Fair. After throwing parties in barns, fields and

under the stars and with a yearbook full of comments

dedicated to her “epic parties” she made a promise to

herself to experience the big city life and expose herself to

new experiences. Krista moved to the concrete jungle of

downtown Toronto, where she was quick to adapt and

absorb all that the busy culture had to offer. Krista has

volunteered on a number of events in the city, including

Canada’s Walk of Fame, AIDSbeat, the ROM Centennial

gala and the upcoming Bloor Street Entertains. During the

school year Krista will be taking part in the annual

Inspired Spaces Table Top Competition, where she will be

featuring a unique table setting of an event that she has

fully planned and navigated. Guests are likely to see her

unique use of texture and material, which parallel her love

of country warmth and city chic.

Krista endeavors to incorporate balance, texture, colour,

and quality so that the project or event’s individuality

shines through. Her attention to detail and creative

approach align with the end goal of achieving any client’s

desired atmosphere, setting and space. She strives to take

every element of design away from the ordinary by using

opposing and paradoxical materials, inspired by her

colorful spectrum of life experiences. Krista’s intention

with event design is not only to create an aesthetically

appealing space, but to build a moment in time that will

engage all of the senses.
