For Like Ever...

Good morning lovelies and Happy Valentine's Day! I am so excited to share our Valentine’s Day dessert table, styled collaboratively with Dewi of Sweet Bloom Cakes which has been featured on Amy Atlas today. We absolutely love this time of the year. February serves as a gentle reminder that, not only is love all around us, but there are also plenty of people, places, and things to love, care for. Our aim was to create a dessert table with a vintage look and feel inspired by the “For like ever” poster! Vintage touches mixed with modern flair shows that your love really will last "For Like Ever".

Our colour palette was a playoff of the traditional colours seen around Valentine’s Day with a twist towards the muted and vintage. We used soft dusty peach, dove grey and combined it with a brighter shade of lavender to bring in a punch. The rustic/raw grey back wall was a perfect backdrop which tied in perfectly with the galvanized pedestals and added a cool industrial texture to the dessert table. The mouth-watering cake, cupcakes and heart shaped macarons were made by Dewi and were displayed on the industrial trestle table, which I absolutely love. Have a wonderful day lovelies xx

Grace's Christening

Spotted! Totally sweet & adorable modern Christening dessert table with a vintage twist! It’s got all of the recipes for a swoon-tastic celebration. What makes it even more special that my lovely friend Linda of Harper Event Design styled this gorgeous event for her beautiful daughter Grace. I am blown away by all the gorgeousness!

From ruffles to lace to ombre, these amazing cakes have MLJ written all over it! Totally my kind of celebration. When you combine the amazing styling of Linda with the gorgeous sweets made by Helen and having these precious moments captured by Jess, it all turns into magic! Did i mention this gorgeous dessert table was featured on Amy Atlas! 

Linda said: I wanted to create a soft vintage feel to the room and decided on collecting hundreds of doilies to place on the tables accompanied by soft flowers. I also handmade pom poms and chocolate bars for every guest as a bonbonniere. For the dessert table, I wanted to use pastel pink, green and blue to reflect the invitations. I had the backdrop printed to create a vintage feel and added 3 different types of cakes. I wanted to create a youthful fun feel to the whole event and incorporated lots of lollies and sweets. Grace wore the Christening gown I was Christened in many years ago which made the event truly vintage.
