Hello Dreamery Readers! Did you miss me? Well I’m back! Life as an intern has been quite busy! Has it really been over a week since my photoshoot? It seems so fresh in my mind, yet in the past week since the shoot, I’ve spent time with my family from Scotland in NYC and then…
Black, White + Gold Feminine Bridal Shower
Last week was a doozy. On Friday I styled the first of two showers that weekend, an ultra feminine bridal shower. With nods to Chanel quotes and vintage glam, this bridal shower was the perfect celebration for the chicest bride-to-be. The lush floral centerpieces were black and gold trimmed boxes brimming with clouds of white hydrangea sprinkled…
Valentine’s Day Inspiration: Romantic Rose Quartz Details
Last year I had the girls over for Valentine’s Day for small bites, cocktails and cookie decorating, and the year before that, I styled this sweet table scape. But this year, since I was going to be busy working on a few projects for parties I’m styling in the next few months, and heading on vacation at the end…
Early Fall Florals
About two weeks ago I was asked to make a very last-minute floral arrangement. With no time to head to the flower market, I had to get creative with what my garden had to offer. Flowers have been scarce, left is mostly greens, foliage and a few purple dahlias, which were just beginning to bloom again. Since I…
8 Fall Color Palettes for Any Occasion
There’s a good reason so many love the Fall, with irresistibly pretty and natural palettes around every corner, it’s too hard not to fall in love with the season. From bright and bold oranges and red to soft and muted blues and golds, autumn has endless color combinations to fit any mood and occasion. I’ll…
Friday Favorites
Can you believe we have just gone through another week in August? I really don’t know where time is going lately. I felt that brisk feeling of pressure, no not stress, but pressure that time is slipping away from me far too quickly. I guess that’s what happens when you’re planning a non-profit Golf Tournament…
Wedding Inspiration {Black & White Glamour}
It seems that every time I envision a party in the winter I’m instantly drawn to a more glamorous look. Sharp black tuxedos, snow white orchids, and touches of rich burgundy lips exude that classical elegance of a Grace Kelly era. Endless candles simmering against silver and gold making it the perfect pairings for perhaps…
Wedding Inspiration {Papaya & Earthy Greens}
It could be the rich hued autumn trees or the abundance of pumpkins that has my eye drawn to all things orange and gold. I especially love the combination of this papaya shade with my favorite sea-foam and earthy green tones. I instantly envision an ethereal look, and an overflow of the season’s greenery, like…
A Portuguese Wedding
Congratulations Marco and Patricia! This past weekend was cause for celebration, the entire family gathered for my cousin Marco’s wedding. In general, weddings in Portugal are less extravagant than the detailed affairs we are so accustomed to in America. They don’t have crystals adorning centerpieces or bridal parties or hi-tech DJ’s, yet they are beautiful…
Wedding Inspiration {Victorian Garden}
It’s the season of deep red and purple Dahlias, festive berries, one of a kind roses and Fall foliage. These flowers were the inspiration for Bloomflora’s Vintage Garden table scape at The Atrium bridal show put on by Elegant Bridal Production. Of course I wouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to help Bloomflora {flowers, home…
