Tablescapes

Drenched in soft colors, light fabrics, and dreamy textures, the romantic feeling throughout the table is layered to perfection. Greenery adds a gorgeous blend to the simplicity and charm of a palette that allows the florals and outdoor ambiance to take the lead. Build upon your garden-inspired palette with unique floral vessels and place settings for a beautiful look. Custom menu cards are placed precisely alongside the place setting, adding additional event customization. It is a minimal classic, underrated luxury.
