COLORFUL BACKYARD WEDDING INSPIRATION

November 12th, 2018

This shoot came together in less than 24 hours and it was magic through and through.
All the colorful details were beautifully captured by our pal Victoria Gold Photography.

From this super plain supermarket cake gone glam…

To this lush + colorful bridal bouquet, which features peonies, protea, carnations, and ranunculus.

It’s reeeeeeally time to rethink the carnation hatred, mkay?

The cutest table for two.

Redefining sitting pretty. 😉

Floral crowns are for everyone.
Seriously, just add flowers. Tiny, adorable flowers.

Also very into this face vase, ESPECIALLY b/c it comes in 3 different skin tones now.

All the beauty. All the boug. All the french silk ribbon.

More sitting pretty.

Hope you enjoyed this cheery color explosion!

DARK & DREAMY FLORAL DESIGN AT CITY CLUB

October 29th, 2018

It was so much fun to collaborate with Anything But Gray Events on this dark & dreamy tablescape at City Club.

I loved playing with rich colors and lots of texture to create these elegant + elevated gothic pieces and would love, love, love to do something similar for a chic halloween shindig next year!

Fun fact: We scored the black goblets that the arrangements are in on our honeymoon (Hello Madonna Inn!) and lots of the other oddities on the table are from my personal collection.

That’s a fancy way of saying house, y’all. They’re from my house. 🙂

Including my fabulous wedding fox. aka. my wedding gift from Gavin.
I got him a Sgian Dubh in case you’re curious!

How fabulous does Holly look sitting at her Dark & Dreamy table?
You know i love when an outfit matches a shoot so damn perfectly!

More fabulous details, fresh fruit, and beautiful stationery by Heirloom Paper Co.

Dark dreams, bright skies. Because, LA.

And that black peacock chair from Nineteen27 Vintage?
Be still my heart.

All about that texture.
And that amethyst I scored in New Mexico.

And yes, if you’ve read this far, and you’re even wondering…
Of course that doll head also came straight outta my dining room!

DUTCH MASTERS FLORAL INSPIRATION

September 17th, 2018

Holy Bouquet Batman!
I owe you all a serious apology for sitting on this one for so dang long!

My lush, romantic, and textural florals really bloom against the industrial backdrop of The Garage Burbank, and Victoria’s photos are always some of my favorite.

This gorgeous shoot was designed by my pal Jason Lloyd. I love love love how he hand-dyed the gauzy table runner. Swoon!

Now let’s talk about this queen.

She’s large and most definitely in charge, not to mention full of gorgeous premium wedding blooms!

This luxury centerpiece features peonies, dahlias, ranunculus, romantic antike garden roses, astilbe, and some of the best scabiosa I’ve ever got my little florist’s paws on.

Dutch Masters + donuts FTW.

Love his smile, that bowtie, and that bout!
Boutonnieres are always one of my favorite details because each one is a tiny piece of art.

Sorry, this seat’s taken.

Cecile’s Paper Co. strikes again with this fabulous acrylic invitation suite.
