Wonderland: The Tablescape

Nathalie Cadet-James — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 04:00:36 +0000

A garden tea party underneath a rooftop peppered with manzanita branches, crystals and orchids is right up my alley. For our Alice in Wonderland Photo Shoot, we were so inspired by our environment that we decided to bring the natural elements of the garden not only onto the table but above the table as well. In addition to our organic chandelier, we created a natural structure made of driftwood, intense purple hydrangea clusters and ivory roses pavéed along the edge. For our charming setting, we scoured all over Miami to find unique vintage tea sets. Mixing and matching sets adds so much character to a table – perfect for a bohemian chic vibe.

Wonderland. The Pictures

I can’t get over how amazing our Wedding in Wonderland concept was captured. Stacey and Craig of Ambrosio Photography really knocked it out of the park. Every single element, from the stunningly chic invitation suite, to the magical cake, her romantic gown, the beautiful accessories, the whimsical linens, the lush location, the artful food – all of it – just amazing. In the next few weeks we will chat with the super-talented folks who helped us create our Wedding in Wonderland. No doubt you will be inspired for your special day! That old saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words” rings so true here, so without further ado . . .

Wonderland. Coming Soon!

I remember how I felt when I first read Alice in Wonderland. Despite the dizzying movement and absurdities, I could not help but be drawn into the fantasy world of the amazing characters and their adventures. There is not a street corner in Miami today that is not blanketed with a zany Alice in Wonderland poster in anticipation of the upcoming release of Tim Burton’s remake of the movie. So I thought, why not have a little fun on our end too with Alice in Wonderland? The story provides such rich inspiration for a whimsical wedding. I soooooooooooooooooo can’t wait to share the magical pictures from our Wonderland photo shoot captured BEAUTIFULLY by Ambrosio Photography. We worked with the best of the best to truly create a dream wedding for our fictitious couple, Gabrielle Dorne and Jean-Marc Rosarion. I am sure you will love their WONDERLAND wedding so be sure to check back very soon!
