The ballroom was almost too brilliant to be taken in at once.
A large chandelier in the center of the room and the room’s sconces traditional bulbs had been replaced by those which looked like candles. The central skylight in the room had the look of a “real” star-studded twilight from which a hidden snow machine dusts the dancers.
The outer walls were draped in layers of black and white to suggests striping usually seen on mint candies. Ornamental chains of lace, hand-cut snowflakes - plain and iridescent - spin softly with any gust of air::
Each table is twice layered with the darker tablecloth on top. Poinsettias and white roses arrangement with candy canes in a rainbow's spectrum of colors, the ribbon tied is also a twist-tied reflecting the walls, in a soft shimmer which catches in the light when anyone approached::
on each place setting, a good-sized glitter dyed “ornaments” nestled between a tiny basket spun grass reminiscent of spider's web and gossamer basket filling each ball. Inside lay an assortment of candies ranging from jelly beans to chocolate coins; and even has the occasional trinket likened to a cracker-jack box - from tiny plastic jeweled rings to whistles, and tiny festive themed fortunes::
a few toy animal plush are also at the table - wearing a matching wrist corsage in holiday colors (green & red or blue & white) for anyone to claim as their own, announcing the event in trailing ribbon including the date and event name::
Fans gently blow back and forth with matching bows, circulating the various scents and the sweets and season from the adjoining dance floor table in which tables of foods have been set out::
at the buffet table the chocolate fountains - milk, dark, and even ivory have been set out - not to mention enough fruit for dipping (pineapple, berries, etc) and various kinds of chocolate kisses, are scattered over the table, if one would wonder why it would be more noticeable that in the light that there were sprigs of mistletoe just about everywhere - or at hung least in the darker corners::
in contrast, even a holiday ham, roast beef and turkey have been set out at separate stations including their own fixings to go with it. Both have two types of bread, three types of cheese, regular and low fat mayo, two types of mustard and even ketchup and several types of pickles and sliced tomatoes
The drink are self serve with cola, clear soda and a few drinks, chilled but not iced so that noting will drip or *explode* upon opening.
Eliza smiles and dips into a curtsey upon the first person to enter:: Welcome to the Dapper Dip, formal dance and dinner!
