Garden Fiesta!

One week and counting till Kelly and Sean wed in Laguna! I am thrilled to be working with Rebecca Stone of Duet Weddings on this one. She is a talented, fun gal. So approachable and sweet. I can see why brides seek her out...

The inspiration for this wedding is very fiesta, with a touch of Frida Kahlo colors thrown in for good measure. I saw an exhibit of her paintings once and they were like surreal, jeweled, pandora's boxes of color. Lots of color!!!! So I think the samples may need to get even more lively from here. More peach tones, some smaller pieces that are all red or all orange. Lots of big open flower heads on the tables. Turquoise footed goblets, YUM!! We are wrapping some of the vases with various festive patterned fabrics to bring in another layer of texture. Hard to see in these images (if only I had Martha's prop room handy!) ... but on an ivory tablecloth....POP! More next week on this.
