Table Top Tuesday | 10

Pretty Little Inspiration

By BellaGrace Studio & Whitney Neal Photography

For installment ten of Table Top Tuesday,  our intern Julia discovered this beautiful table set up.   Two magnificent photographers Josh Merideth of Bella Grace Studios and Whitney Neal of Whitney Neal Photography teamed up with Jaclyn Journey for styling + florals.  Such a unique way to use navy in any gathering!

What makes this work?  Navy blue linen, gold accents and soft touches of eucalyptus in the arrangement create a lovely color story.  The surrounding trees provide a wonderful backdrop!

What details make a difference?  The gold rim glassware and gold flatware against a dramatic navy linen is eye catching.  The dark compote which holds the delicate floral arrangement is a great contrast as well!

  •  Believe it or not, wedding etiquette should not limit you from being creative or from having the wedding you have always dreamed of. You can do both of these things even when you follow the etiquette! Here are some of the most important wedding etiquette things to keep in mind:

Mariell Bridal Jewelry & Accessories

Our celebration of fall and winter trends continues here on the Mariell blog!

We’ve talked about adding a pop of elegance to wedding decor with black accents, and the sweet prettiness of muted vintage tones.

This week’s trend is certainly not new… but it is recently back in style and still going strong.

It can pretty, sweet, elegant, chic, sexy, feminine… basically whatever you want it to be.

This popular wedding trend is, of course, lace.

Weddings have moved away from stiff and shiny taffeta and embraced the beauty of lace, and we couldn’t be more thrilled about it. After all, what’s not to love about lace?
