Often times floral decor, whether it be aisle flowers, arch pieces, or table centerpieces, end up going to waste if no one takes them home to enjoy. We love the idea of these terrarium centerpieces as an alternative to floral centerpieces and decor… and even without a centerpiece giveaway game during the reception, we’re sure that these beautiful creations will find a lovely home at the end of the night!

Maybe a large terrarium on each table isn’t your style? But you like the idea? How about these genius little lightbulb terrariums?

We LOVE the vintage look and enjoy scouring shops for neat antiques. But we also love the other side of things… super modern and industrial. And what’s more industrial than cement?

Check out these lovelies for you concrete lovers out there! We are super tempted to buy some concrete containers for ourselves!

Check out this Etsy shop for amazing hand-poured cement pieces!

What do you think about this look?
One might think of concrete as cold and unfeeling, but there’s a certain charm that happens when you add in beautiful flowers and greens!

We are always brainstorming new and unique looks for our clients. Are you still trying to nail down your wedding or event design? Give us a call and we’ll be happy to help!

Wrapping gifts can be the easiest thing or the most intricate! But one detail that shouldn’t be left off is the gift tag! After all, you want to know who the gift is going to and, in turn, for the recipient to know who its from.

Sweets, candy and chocolate are big on the agenda around the Holidays… as gifts, as party food, even as casual nibbles around the office.

But one traditional dessert we have yet to mention is the Buche de Noel!  A traditional French roll cake shaped as a yule log. And as traditions go… they evolve over time and variations emerge! Check out these yummy cakes you could bring to your next party!

Check out all the variations of a Buche de Noel here!

Love the different garnishes you can use!

What a beauty!

Hope you’re having a wonderful week gearing up for this big weekend! We sure are!!

Happy Holidays!
