Tuesday’s Tablescape

One of my favorite design elements in a wedding is the Tablescape. (Random fact: the first time I ever heard the term “tablescape” was on cheesy Sandra Lee’s FoodNetwork show, Semi Homemade).

I love this glamorous pink, fuchsia and chocolate brown tablescape and the deconstructed arrangements of peonies, roses and gerbera daisies (typically not amongst my favorite flowers, but I like them here in small doses). I especially love the use of all that glass, which gives the table a lovely reflective quality, and just positively glows! And surprise, surprise, this is not a wedding… this is a charity event at the St. Regis Atlanta planned by A Legendary Event and photographed by Artstar Photography.

Setting the Proper Place Setting

As a wedding planner, setting a proper place setting is something that I have to know… but it’s also a great tidbit of knowledge for everyone! So when one of my favorite Chicago bloggers, Jen from Second City Soirees launched her Video Series today, I was thrilled to see that one of her first topics was the Proper Place Setting! Check it out and you’ll learn how and why everything has its place:

Love it, thanks Jen!

Indie Wed: A Unique Wedding Show

Are you going?

I am so looking forward to Indie Wed on January 30th! According to their site:

Indie Wed caters to unconventional couples who are taking a more modern, edgy, or eco-friendly approach to their special day as well as the more conservative couples who simply want to add some special touches. The event will highlight the work of local independent designers specializing in various wedding related fields including stationery, cakes & pastries, fashion, catering, floral design and photography”
