Vintage Post: Lounge Acts

The whirl of the wedding day is ever so tiring, what is a poor bride and her groom to do? How about a little moment of rest and relaxation away for the crowds and into a different spotlight like these shots that channel old Hollywood glamour.

These artistic shots taken in color and black and white are sure to capture the best of a quite moment between the two of you. All you need is a chaise lounge and a romantic spirit (which I am sure will be in full supply).

Vintage Post: Suspended in Air

It's all about flowers and style, and these flowers are taking centerpieces to a whole new level. If you're like me, your jaw probably dropped the moment you saw this stunning event courtesy of Food+Flower+Style.

The look? Clear vases, each holding one white ranunculus are suspended in air by clear fishing line. Don't you just love how the beauty of the flower just stands (or floats) on its own? A runner's length of white florals and candles along the table compliment the florals from above. Repeated through, the look, quite simply is awe inspiring.

If your space, and budget allows, this design is something I know you and your guest would love to see. Or, on a much smaller scale this would be perfect for the engagement dinner or even a small and intimate dinner party.

Hopefully, we'll be able to see more of these beautiful centerpieces!

Vintage Post: In Love with Veils

A stolen glance through wispy tulle. When it looks so delicate and feminine, how could you not want to wear a veil?

Vintage Post: Properly Refreshing

Of course, no fete would be complete without the proper libations. A classic beverage container brings old world elegance and quiet sophistication to your party.

Serve your refreshments in these beauties, won't you?

Paris Bound

It's this American girl's first time in Paris! Will be back in a week, but in the mean time, I hope you'll enjoy a few vintage posts.

Merci!
