Monday's Must Have

French designer Alberto Pinto sure knows how to spice up any tabletop.  

His Lagon collection absolutely has me swooning with the perfect combinations of blues, turquoise, and oranges. I can only imagine the possibilities for entertaining, decorations, bookshelf displays -- the possibilities for this pattern are endless!

Love, love, love!

Wednesday's Wedding Inspired Bliss!

Wow, friends -- it has been entirely too long!! I am slowly but surely getting my life back now that last week's work conference is over.  I can happily say that a year's worth of planning becomes all worth it when things go as smoothly and are as successful as they were last week! But phew, am I glad to be on this side of it!!

I have missed you!! 

I was able to take a short break from working round the clock for a little fun at the wedding of a best friend in Charleston, SC over Memorial Day.  I am honored to have been able to help in the planning of such a dear friends wedding and what fun it was to see it all come to life!! 

Here is just a small preview of her fabulous pics (courtesy of the fabulous Jennifer Bearden)  -- can't wait to see the rest when they return from their honeymoon!

The happy Bride and Groom!

...and the centerpieces were fabulous!!

The sunset could not have been prettier!
