We all love the Champagne splits that have been so popular at events these days.
Now, Nicolas Feuillatte is producing Champagne mini bottles complete with color coordinated wrist bands. Perfect for those with blue or pink color schemes! Happy toasting!
Looking to add a personal touch to your ceremony? I love this idea for ring pillows made of vintage handkerchiefs from each state via Little White Book and 100 Layer Cake. A lovely twist on tradition and more reason to scour those antique and vintage shops!
One of our favorite weddings of last year, Nancy and Heyward have been featured in The Knot!
We always love working with Allegra Helms and this event was no different as she continues to leave brides and grooms with the most magical images from their big day. Thanks to Allegra for capturing such a special wedding. Read the article here.
I also love Allegra’s original blog post about the wedding! Read it here.
Last month we worked with Second Street Gallery on their fundraiser, Artini III. The event is held in the IX building which is an abandoned warehouse space in downtown Charlottesville that is transpormed into a dance club for the night. We had a great time working with the gallery staff and the many gallery supporters & event vendors who donated their time & services to support contemporary art in Charlottesville. Here are a few shots of the IX building as a work in progress-
You will find shots of the finished product by Jason Lappa on his WEBSITE. It was quite a transformation!
Ever so often we have a moment to come up with creative ideas for all the little details that make up our events. Currently, I am loving coming up with new, funky and surprising ideas for escort or place cards. Attach to your escort or place card, or write your guests’ names directly on!
Enjoy!

One of our corporate clients has hired us to cater an event for them at the local bowling alley next week. Chef had a great time coming up with an ‘upscale bowling menu’! Today we created custom food labels to match their theme. We will also be decorating with themed linens & bowling pins. (We apologize for the amateur photography but wanted to share today’s project!)
