Inspiration to Publication: Get Married Magazine Shoot
Tamera Mowry & Adam Housely Get Married Magazine Shoot Details
And we’re back with more fun detail shots of the darling couple just a few weeks before their ‘I do’s’ at our Get Married Magazine Shoot at The Chamberlain in West Hollywood. With a combination of mid-century modern decor, glamorous fabrics and finishes, and bright and bold Noritake china and tableware, we created an eclectic surrounding to showcase what this darling couple would look like as Hollywood newlyweds entertaining in their new home. It was so sweet just how in love they were and interact in their ‘newlywed home’ setting.
The modern silver chandelier and chic periwinkle and gold chairs made for a bold combination when mixed with this patterned graphic rug and white mid-century style table by Form Decor.
For this modern table design we started with a mirrored cube as a center riser to place a modern inky black vase filled with lush open soft yellow peonies and yellow tulips, courtesy of Isari Flower Studio. We brought in different shades of yellow including dark and light amber and a gorgeous hand-blown glass vase by artist Jess Wainer.
We selected bold yellow and black geometric shapes of Nortiake china and for glassware we brought in crystal blues and inky black glassware for bold contrasts.
Hand-painted Thai silk fabric I found in New York was used for napkins and wrapped with bold gold chains for a modern napkin treatment with a wired on place card for each guest.

Tamera Mowry Get Married Magazine Shoot
We are so excited to finally share with you the Get Married Magazine shoot we designed for Tamera Mowry and her brand new husband, Adam Housely. They were so sweet, ridiculously cute and in love! When Get Married asked me to be a part of the shoot I was so honored, and of course very excited, to work the start of one of my favorite TV shows in the 90′s Sister, Sister. I wanted to design a look that was modern and edgy but still very young, fresh and vibrant to represent this style young couple.
Here is the article that came out in the latest edition of Get Married Magazine out on stands now, make sure to go and get your own copy Brides-t0-be! More detail and design shots to come.
Get a behind the scenes look at my inspiration for this shoot with this Get Married Magazine video clip.

Royal Blue, White and Gold Rancho Santa Fe Wedding Inspiration
We are so excited to finally share with you all of the details that went into this royal inspired Rancho Santa Fe wedding shoot a few months back. Paula from Luna Photography captured the details and opulence so wonderfully we were thrilled! The ever talented Isari Flower Studio helped us to bring punches of bold, sophisticated color and details throughout their florals and bride and groom styling. With elements of luxury, glamor, modernism and even rustic settings, we wanted to showcase our version of ‘royal’ with a young and modern twist.

Inspiration to Home Accessorization: Vases Worth the Splurge
With chic modern vases as these flowers become an afterthought
Far too often than not, the flowers for an event or for your home become the star while the vase or vessel they’re displayed in takes a back seat to the peonies their displaying. To me that’s like putting on a gorgeous gown with a pair of ho-hum shoes and accessories. Yes, the gown speaks for itself but loses it appeal as the eyes wander down to the little numbers their planted in. Vases can, and should be, appreciated as the pieces of art and examples of extraordinary design that they are. Albeit not every event will be able to afford such statement pieces for their entire tablescape designs, but why not make a statement in an entry piece or other special location sure to get noticed. From ceramic to wood to wire to hand painted masterpieces, these chic beauty’s definitely stand on their own, even sans fleur!
