There’s something undeniably special about private dining. At VH Designs, we believe that atmosphere is everything, and our floral and décor services are designed to transform restaurant spaces into unforgettable environments for any occasion.
Where Culinary Meets Creative
Private dining is more than just a meal, it’s an experience. Whether it’s a milestone birthday, rehearsal dinner, mitzvah celebration, or corporate gathering, the setting should feel just as thoughtful as the menu. That’s where we come in.
We partner closely with restaurants to seamlessly integrate floral and décor into their existing aesthetic while elevating the space to match the tone of the event. From modern and minimal to lush and romantic, every design is tailored to the client, the cuisine, and the ambiance of the venue.
Designing Within the Details
Unlike traditional event venues, restaurants present a unique creative challenge. Some things our team carefully considers:
-
Table size and layout
-
Lighting and color schemes
-
Existing textures and finishes
-
Guest flow and service logistics
This ensures our designs not only look beautiful but function effortlessly within an active dining environment.
Signature Floral Moments
Florals are often the heartbeat of our designs. For private dining events, we love creating:
-
Low, textural centerpieces that encourage conversation
-
Statement arrangements for entry tables or bars
-
Seasonal installations that bring the outside in
-
Custom vessels and styling details that complement the venue
Each arrangement is intentional.
Beyond the Table
While florals are a key element, our work extends far beyond. VH Designs can provide full décor support, including:
-
Linen consultations and tabletop styling
-
Candlelight and ambient lighting enhancements
-
Place settings and menus
-
Branded elements for corporate or milestone events
The result is a cohesive, immersive environment that feels elevated yet effortless.

Our ongoing work with Gibsons Restaurant Group allows us to design within a variety of their renowned spaces, each with its own distinct personality—from classic steakhouse elegance to more contemporary settings at Gibsons Italia.
We’ve also had the pleasure of enhancing private dining experiences at Chicago Cut Steakhouse, where bold, sophisticated floral designs complement the restaurant’s dramatic riverfront views and upscale energy.
For more intimate, wine-focused gatherings, our work with Verve Wine Bar in Lincoln Park highlights a warm and inviting environment that is effortlessly chic.
Each partnership is a true collaboration. We work closely with restaurant teams to ensure our designs elevate the guest experience while seamlessly fitting into the flow of service.
Creating Memorable Experiences
At the end of the day, our goal is to create moments that people remember long after the last course is served. When florals, décor, and dining come together seamlessly, the result is something truly special.
Private dining is about connection, celebration, and storytelling and VH Designs is honored to play a role in bringing those stories to life.
