Moroccan Nights Tablescape as Featured in Exquisite Weddings

Inspired by the idea of global romance Moroccan-style, Sitting in a Tree Events put a new spin on a romantic backyard wedding or private party. Deep fuchsia and coral with gilded accents and dark rustic wood, a simple yet beautiful aesthetic. The florals were created with coral charm peony and garden roses. Paper goodies were designed by Brightly Designed and the yummy food was provided by MIHO Gastrotruck.

Pick up your copy of the new Exquisite Weddings magazine for other inspiring tabletop designs. Hop on over to their blog, the bride suite, for a behind the scenes video of the shoot.

Double Feature!

Inside the pages of Exquisite Weddings Magazine's March/April 2011 issue you'll find Nicole and Christian's Real Wedding featured as well as a bouquet shoot. Make sure to pick up a copy and get inspired!

Part 1.

Shot by the fabulous girls of Joielala, our bouquet is No. 7. Designed with garden roses, freesia, ranunculus, mini cymbidium orchids, blue thistle, dusty miller, a succulent, and tied with navy blue ribbon, this bouquet would be perfect for a seaside wedding. For more close ups of our bouquet and all the other beauties that didn't appear in the magazine, visit the Joielala blog.

Part 2.

Remember this pretty couple? Nicole and Christian's dog themed wedding is featured as a Real Wedding in the issue. Held at the Thursday Club in Point Loma, this wedding was all about those doggone details! So happy to have designed for such a warm and welcoming couple and worked alongside Heather of Amorology. The day was beautifully captured The Youngrens, a husband and wife team.

I had the privilege to work alongside the girls of Carter and Cook on this stunning, shabby chic inspired table top design for the Spring/Summer 2010 issue of Exquisite Weddings Magazine. The Floral Lab making its debut in a print magazine! Alyssa McNees, the Creative Director for the magazine referred to Carter and Cook and The Floral Lab as "fresh talent" and "newbies" who "went for a youthful, whimsical look." I couldn't have described who we are and what we're about any better!

It was an incredible feeling to be a part of this shoot and I hope to have another opportunity like it again soon. Go pick up a copy for yourself to see all the other inspirational table top designs. All of my thanks for the following team of people who made this shoot possible:
