I just returned from a destination wedding that included the most amazing wedding ceremony I have ever witnessed. OK, so it was my brother’s, but I am not a biased sister. There was not a dry eye among the guests watching. The stunning surroundings were beautiful but Greg & Kathleen’s genuine, soulful love made this beach shine. Love. Cannot wait to share the wedding photos! For now here’s a sneak peek of their first kiss…
A little piece of me is always influenced by my east coast roots. This table design is sparked by the essence of nautical east coast style with a hip Californian twist. I chose a classic color palette of navy, white and gold. Fresh perks of fuschia and yellow are added to brighten the floral palette. Glamorous finishes elevate the look from the glossy white lacquer table to the gold embellishments and finishes on table accessories.
Subtle nods to the theme are found in nautical curiosities layered upon the table settings. Including; marine specimen jars containing shells found during exotic boating journeys doubling as place cards, lanterns holding rope tied pillar candles and a gold enameled driftwood candelabra. Crab cracker tags and a whale shaped menu add a touch of coastal whimsy. Gold finished “found” objects and metal cage lanterns are filled to the brim with anenome, hydrangea, roses, acacia and ranunculas. The heady white flowers look crisp and bright against the bayside backdrop. A super amazing team made the Nautical Glam design come together including; Organic Elements, Brightly Designed, and Concepts.
