Carrie & Matt on The Wedding Row!

Saturday, February 9th, 2013

We just adored these two! Their wedding at Magnolia Plantation was a blast and the details were some of our favorites! Although there were fun, playful elements, it was extremely elegant and fit these too darlings perfectly! We loved how the long farm tables and simple centerpieces for the seated dinner turned out. And who doesn’t love giant pink balloons and string lighting? Big thanks for the lovely photographs from Love the Daniels! Enjoy the weekend and check out our feature on The Wedding Row!

Spring Is Around the Corner!

Friday, February 1st, 2013

Bring a touch of spring to your table this season with these colorful settings!

 

Utilize emerald accents, suspended florals, bold colors, and loose arrangements. There is so much you can do, so let your table arrangement be a reflection of YOU. Use these for your own inspiration!

Color of the Year: Emerald

In honor of the reveal of Pantone’s 2013 color of the year, emerald, we created an entire inspiration board dedicated to this classic beauty.

Holiday Entertaining

Monday, December 17th, 2012

Who doesn’t love to throw a good party? You’re crazy if you don’t look forward to the holiday entertaining season. It’s always fun to attend, but sometimes it’s nice to be the host of a festive little gathering. Here are some great entertaining and decorating ideas for your upcoming weeks!

We love the idea of wreath made of bay leaves or a tasty spin on bruschetta (goat cheese, arugula, + sun-dried tomatoes).

 

Metallic décor and a winter wonderland color scheme.

 

Fun and simple place card ideas.

 

Decorating the buffet with simple flower arrangements and fruit acts as the perfect décor options. We love this color palette!

Just a few fun ideas for all of your winter entertaining!

We Love an Appy Couple!

Friday, November 30th, 2012

Attention: Charleston Brides! We recently stumbled across a fabulous new {and cute!} app out there for all things wedding! One of our brides has introduced us to this little gem of a wedding tool and we just love it. Without further adieu, we introduce to you the Appy Couple. With the Appy Couple you can easily keep all of your details and inspiration in one convenient virtual place. Easy to use, super cute, and fun to share with friends and family – we most certainly approve! Create your wedding website, keep track of vendors, and pop that virtual champagne! There is so much to do with the Appy Couple. Check out their site or blog, Spliced by Appy Couple, to see what it’s all about!

Cozy up and gather a little inspiration this weekend…
