Here is a lovely tent wedding we did a while ago…very rustic chic…burlap is beautiful!:

There was a delightful old claw-foot tub full of Jones soda & water on ice to greet the guests as they arrived for the ceremony:

We used 6000 white and cream rose petals to line the aisle. There was very little adornment for the ceremony…they had a (beautiful) bridal party of 20….so there wasn’t much more decoration needed!:

After the ceremony the guests migrated over under the trees for cocktails. The bride tracked down some barrels and we covered a piece of plywood with burlap…it was such a cute setting. Her bridesmaids also wrapped almost 200 mason jars with lace for their signature cocktails….just lovely!:

We went with 16′ tables draped with ivory linen + a burlap runner + sandalwood napkins. Each table had an assortment of different sizes of mason jars filled with little posies in whites, creams, pale yellows and soft peach, candelabras + vintage oil lamps. The bride & groom named their tables with names of places that are significant to them…the place he proposed, the place they’re going on honeymoon, etc.:

All the vintage (or vintage looking) dishes used for the candy buffet were so sweet…this little dish with the bird was my favorite!:

Stringing the tent with all the little lights in the gale-force winds proved quite challenging – but on the wedding day everything was twinkly & magical:

We did a lovely small wedding this weekend that was just filled with lovely candlelight…candelabras everywhere…the palette was champagne & eggplant with a few cranberry accents…perfect for the beautiful autumn day…and perfect as a backdrop for all the candles.
Here’s a sneak peak:

you MUST have cherry shoes!

Monday, May 3rd, 2010 | trends | No Comments

My mother-in-law had been shoe shopping and saw a pair of shoes that were totally me – and so we went shoes shopping on the weekend so I could try on these fabulous cherry shoes:

Unfortunately they no longer had my size…but I must say – they are indeed “me” – and much more fun than any shoes I’ve purchased recently.
In the end I managed to find a fun silver pair off the sale rack (yay!) which are also made by Poetic License:

I wore them to the office today…excellent way to start the week…in a fun & fabulous new pair of shoes…even more so when they were on sale.
Aren’t they cute?!?
The shoe box is so cute also I almost took a photo of it to post (I refrained).
