Grace Ormonde Wedding Style Magazine

Lucinda and I were invited to collaborate with Yumiko from Hana Floral to design a table for the latest issue of Grace Ormonde Wedding Style New England. The photo shoot was held at the Winvian, a totally amazing hidden gem in Morris, CT.

Inspired by a painting that they provided, we designed the table to be a mix of vintage and modern pieces. We used ghost chairs and glass candle holders on the tables for modern elements and brought in vintage accents with the broaches on the chairs, the rich fabric on the table, Lenox china and porcelain bird napkin rings.

Inspiration for Table, Almond Branches in Bloom by Vincent van Gogh

An Orchid "chandelier" was designed to hang from the ceiling over the center of the table, it was such a dramatic centerpiece. Glass Candle holders from CB2 added modern accents to the table.

We selected the Lenox Chirp China pattern for the place setting.

Modern ghost chairs were wrapped with tiffany blue satin ribbon and pinned with vintage broaches to display the escort card on the back of the chair.
