Inspeiration ....Boxwood

This weekend’s bride found inspiration starting in her Vera Wang gown. By taking a visual queue from her marquisate trim. We used tin floral containers and boxwood garland for the tent poles, buffet stations and cake table. To complete the story line she reinterpreted this Martha Stewart wedding cake. It was a perfect Newport garden wedding for a perfectly wonderful Newport bride.

Thanks Alison and Adam for making this such a joyful year of wedding planning bliss! I can't wait to see Christian Oths photos!

A Tisket a Tasket....

Lightship Baskets are unique to the island of Nantucket. But we here in Newport do borrow them from time to time. They make wonderful baskets for maids and flower girls.

Save some cash with your trash!

The great Fats Waller wrote a song call "Get some cash for your trash "What a creative way to reuse old tins and cans for a green garden party.
