Resource One Linen at Jubilee Events

I wanted to share with you the gorgeous display in our studio featuring an amazing linen company we’ve partnered with: Resource One, Inc. Our gorgeous “Summer’s Dream” inspired tablescape features Olivewood Bark colored crinkle taffeta with an AMAZING Olive Floral Organza Overlay on the table and the chiavari chair backs. The overlays have hand stitched flowers and petals with bead detailing cascading down into large pools onto the floor. The linen is absolutely spectacular! The tablescape is finished off with luxurious Olivewood Taffeta napkins. The tablescape features beautiful and colorful china from Party Rental Ltd., a Violet Pepple Charger, Floral Dinner Plate, and Pink Dotted Dessert Plate. Gorgeous menu cards with a custom crepe paper flower and butterfly place cards are designed by our talented friends at Posh Paperie. If you’d like to learn more about renting this gorgeous ensemble for your event, give us a ring!

xo!

Organic, Local Farm Wedding Flowers by Azalea Floral Design

I met with the lovely Christine D’Angelo of Azalea Floral Design, a Connecticut based floral design company. She turned me on to the idea of using locally grow, fresh Connecticut flowers in your event. Christine and her team will pick and acquire locally grown flowers for your event to be used through out your decor. This is a really great way to support your local Connecticut small business and farms. Christine has also said that this option is affordable, but couples need to have an open color story as some varieties and colors are not always available.

I really love the gorgeous arrangements that Christine put together above using local flowers! Check out her website to learn more about her company, style, and approach. She recently started a blog, too!

Designer Spotlight: Elizabeth Fillmore

I came across the designer Elizabeth Fillmore’s work while looking for some inspiration for a client. I love her modern take in vintage style. Her collection is full and versatile… with so many romantic, whimsical, and vintage inspired pieces.

I love the vintage, Hollywood Glamour inspired look to these gorgeous gowns.

Can’t you see these gorgeous lace and ruffle gowns at a garden inspired ceremony or rustic reception? I absolutely love them! All the appliques and detailing are just fantastic. Elizabeth is known for her beading, attention to detail, and the way fabric sits against the body. It makes me want to crawl into one of her gowns and get married all over again!

Elizabeth’s gowns are not available in any boutiques in Connecticut. You can find them at Saks Fifth Ave, Bergdorf Goodman and Mark Ingram in the city. Her collection is also available at l’elite in Boston.
Happy Sunday!
xoxo

Vintage French Inspired Photoshoot with Carla Ten Eyck, Part II

To recap from my previous post, a few weeks ago I had the pleasure of working with Carla Ten Eyck for her September Ten Eyck Tuesday. To view the first portion of this shoot check out my previous post, here! I collaborated with Elisabeth of BLUSH floral design and Beth Chapman of White Dress by the Shore on the color story of teal and pink. All the hair and makeup was done by the talented and super amazing Dana Bartone & Co., who are responsible for making almost ALL of my brides gorgeous on their wedding day (me included)!! My studio roomie Thomas Morlock of Vantage Point Films also shot the entire event from his viewfinder. He ate all the cake AND drank all the champagne!!!

Soo… is Signature Event Rentals not awesome? Their furniture totally made our tablescape go from cool to incredible. I loved their white dining table and we decided to use their Alice Pop hot pink chairs, mixed in with the white padded, clear backed. Elisabeth created a series of beautiful and simple pink arrangements down the center of the table in vintage milk glass containers… gorgeous!!

Party Rentals Ltd in Greenwich and New Preston supplied the hot pink glass chargers and some of the dinner plates. We also used their gold rimmed wine / champagne glasses and gold flatware. All the other pieces are vintage china (lots of limoges), including the tea cups and saucers, white/gold dinner plates and the aqua soup bowls are all courtesy of my friend and etsy shop owner, Jen. Check out her store, Jen’s Closet!

I added little bottles of Moet at each place setting and floated white raspberries in each champagne glass (they were yum!). The beautiful art deco napkins came from this fabulous antique store in Seymour, Connecticut called Yesterday’s Luxuries. They are made of linen and are so delicate and beautiful! Definitely a set of keepers.

Thanks to all the awesome vendors who contributed to the shoot! You can see more of it here on Carla’s blog!
