Luxury Networking at Royal Palms Resort
When it comes to creating an unforgettable gathering, serpentine tables for events are one of the most versatile and visually striking choices—and they played a leading role in the stunning fall-inspired networking brunch we recently sponsored at the beautiful Royal Palms Resort & Spa. Designed in warm seasonal hues, layered textures, and intentional details, this event welcomed Phoenix’s top wedding pros for a morning of connection, creativity, and conversation.
The Royal Palms already offers a setting rich with charm and Mediterranean architecture, but for this October event, the design elevated the space even further. Paired with lush florals, autumnal tones, and a curated ambiance, the layout showcased exactly how serpentine tables can transform a traditional networking brunch into an immersive, inviting experience.
Serpentine tables add movement and fluidity to any layout, making them ideal for events centered around connection. At this brunch, the planners opted for curved table arrangements that allowed for seamless conversation, easy circulation, and a visually captivating focal point.
This shape creates a natural sense of community—rather than breaking guests into separated clusters, the flowing arrangement keeps everyone part of the same conversation while still feeling intimate. The curves also echo organic elements often found in fall design: foliage, winding pathways, and the softness of the season.
Whether used for dining, workshops, or elevated networking events, serpentine tables offer:
A striking visual moment
Efficient use of space
Flexible designs for both small and large guest counts
Layouts that encourage eye contact and conversation
At this particular event, they worked flawlessly to draw guests into the experience and set the tone for a warm, hospitable gathering.
To complement the serpentine design, we featured our Velvet Ava Dining Chairs—a client favorite and a luxurious option for fall and winter events. Their soft velvet texture and rich fall-friendly tones were the perfect addition to this tablescape.
The chairs brought depth and richness to the palette, enhancing the warm terracotta, amber, and rust shades woven throughout the florals and linens. A seating option can easily elevate an event’s entire aesthetic, and velvet is especially ideal for seasonal events, offering both comfort and a high-end look.
The Ava chairs made the serpentine table layout feel even more intentional, bringing structure and elegance to the organic curves of the tables.
No fall event is complete without emphasis on lighting—and our Tatum Table Lamps were the perfect finishing touch. Used down the center of the serpentine tables, these lamps added:
A warm, ambient glow
Visual dimension at varying heights
A cozy, intimate mood perfect for brunch
Table lamps are a growing trend in event design, replacing or supplementing candles for a more polished and branded feel. The Tatum lamps created a comfortable environment that invited attendees to settle in, stay a while, and fully engage in conversation.
Lighting is one of the most effective (and underrated) ways to shift the tone of an event—and this brunch proved just how impactful it can be.
This event at Royal Palms Resort brought together an incredible vendor team, thoughtful design, and a welcoming environment for industry professionals. The serpentine tables shaped the flow of the room. The velvet Ava dining chairs grounded the design with warmth and elegance. And the Tatum table lamps created the cozy ambiance that gave the event its fall-season soul.
Whether you’re planning a holiday gathering, an industry luncheon, a corporate mixer, or an elevated brunch, these design elements can work together to create an unforgettable experience—just like this one at Royal Palms Resort.
