In order to make the necessary changes, i had to create a new adobe illustrator file with the required dimensions of 616x515 pixels, then i re-drew the table in a much larger perspective, this time around only showing the edges of the table in the far corners of the picture, as opposed to the previous versions where the whole table was shown including the table legs.
Once i had drawn out the table i then proceeded to find some images of the scenario specific objects (in this case wedding related objects), and using the live trace tool and watercolour brushes, transformed them to fit in with the overall look of the table. once the base for the client images was drawn out i added them into the picture and re-sized them.
