In praise of not going small

It's been said that for actors there are no small roles, only small actors. When encountering the work of event planner and designer Preston Bailey, one thing is clear: He doesn't do small.

If you've never given much thought to the material side of special events, you most certainly will now. Preston Bailey's work can do that; Its sheer fabulousness conquers passivity.

The often overused, and misused, descriptor awesome is nearly inadequate for the maestro's work: He just seems to take his spaces further than anyone else. Minimalism, it isn't.

Panamanian-born Bailey immigrated to the U.S. in 1968 and seems to have assimilated well the opulent desires of his adopted country. Abundance is his motif: in his lighting, his use of flowers, trees, color, space, even in the celebrities, sultans, and various other sybarites who make up his client list.
