Happy Holidays!

The holidays are a special time of the year and they hold so many different meanings for all of us....but the one common thing that I think we all share is the love for our families and friends....a time to get together and celebrate what we hold special. A few weeks ago, I got together with some very special people and we all created a little holiday magic to share with all of you.
Katie Stoops of Katie Stoops Photography captured all the magic.
Courtney Spencer of Merriment Events & Little White Book did a fantastic job with the styling.
Jennifer Cota of Pretty Pen Jen always does a beautiful job with the calligraphy.
Jenny Tremblay of The Sweetest Thing Bakery made a beautiful croquembouche.
Sarah Valentine of Mango Hair Salon did a beautiful job with the hair and makeup.
And the floral arrangements were designed by me, Janie Medley Flora Design!
I hope you enjoy our holiday gift to you....let's begin with the beautiful garland created by Courtney...how fun is this...Courtney stamped the lettering on vintage tags and she strung them on jute twine!

| The floral for the table consisted of white amaryllis, French anemones, Victoria white ranunculus, supergreen parrot tulips, and white peonies all in mercury glass vases. Using only one type of flower in each vase allows each flower to stand out, and is a simple solution for centerpieces. The amaryllis arrangements are rather tall, so they can be removed once guests are seated to allow for conversation across the table.
|


| The menus were lettered in the shape of a star, and embellished with little stars made of sheet music.
|






Menus and place cards were calligraphed by Jen at Pretty Pen Jen...all so beautiful!
|




| Our winter bouquet was a mix of white peonies....dusty miller..... and privet berries!
|








I hope you all enjoyed our holiday gift to you....and I want to give a very special thanks to Kathryn at Snippet & Ink for featuring us on her beautiful site....and a "shout out" to our models for spending the day with us.
Happy Holidays to my beautiful cafe readers....thank you all for stopping by each day....xoxoxo

Oh So Pretty!

There are times when less is best and although the bride in this image held a beautiful bouquet as she walked down the aisle, she was also captured holding a gorgeous peony........a single stem...simply STUNNING! Elizabeth Messina is the lady behind the lense....Elizabeth, I love this image...so timeless and elegant and just oh-so-pretty....xoxoxo
