Tabletop Tuesday: Vibrant Violet

 A vibrant tabletop with purple hues designed by Donna Smith from Out of the Garden. We love the shimmering linens against a metallic purple charger and touches of silver throughout. Donna used our Purple Metallic Charger, Vera Wang Dinner Plate, Silver Beaded B&B Charger, Silver Radiance B&B, Silver Floral Lace Champagne Flute and Goblet, Elise Cut Crystal Water Glass, and Artesian Flatware.

Tabletop Tuesday: Dr. Delphinium

Dr. Delphinium's Lovers Lane studio is always awe-inspiring with it's towering floral arrangements and intricate display of stems and exotic flowers. To show off the grandeur of the beautiful arrangements, their team has created a Wedding Niche corner with complete tabletop from La Tavola Linens, Wisteria, and P.O.S.H. As a treat, we're sharing not one but three of their tabletops with you today.

Brook's Niche - Purple Passion: An amazing assortment of deep reds and purples creates the perfect centerpiece. Within the same theme, Brook picked our Purple Metallic Chargers and B&B Chargers, Vera Wang Dinner Plates, Parisian Flatware, Elise Cut Crystal Stemware, Purple Shantung Napkins, and Silver Chiavari Chairs.

Bryna's Niche - Festive Fete: Orchids and roses in assorted vases creates major eye candy. Mixed with La Tavola's festive jovial prints and our classic Mottahedeh Chargers, Royal Rego China, Pure Stemware, and Orange Chloe Goblet provides the perfect blend of color and white space for a tabletop that feels fun and fresh rather than overwhelming.
 

 

 Lizzie's Niche - Tropical Paradise: This unique tabletop makes us feel like we're on vacation. Bring the tropics to your guests with Dr. Delphinium and our Grand Fruitwood Chiavaris, Round Rattan Chargers, Barcelona Gold China, and Bodega Bowls.

Tabletop Tuesday: Call of the Wild

We love that the exotic theme of the zoo made it to the tabletop. The palm leaf centerpiece makes just as much of a statement as a bold animal print.

Today's tabletop is for the leader of the pack. Fiercely unique with an amalgam of textures (natural elements plus exquisite couture details), this tablescape designed by Tami Winn Events is a fresh take on the formal tabletop. Tami was inspired by the location - the Fort Worth Zoo, and wanted to create a fun look for the non-traditional bride or a unique event. We think she succeeded, don't you?

A POSH tabletop takes a note from the wild as well with Rattan Round Chargers, Mottahedeh Tree Collection China, Michelangelo Flatware, Vintage Carnival Glassware in Purple, and Elise Cut Crystal.

If you're thinking about purple

We were so inspired by yesterday's purple Tabletop Tuesday, we dove into our inspiration boards for more plum perfection. Various shades of purple have been popping from planners and brides alike, so we thought we'd share a few fun tabletops in this illustrious hue.

 If you're thinking purple in a more feminine yet relaxed environment, say, an outdoor reception, then consider embracing natural elements. Let the texture of the outdoors reflect in your choices for tabletop. Get the look at P.O.S.H. with Rattan Chargers, purple silk runners, and Pure glassware. (See the look above)

If you're thinking purple with a formal approach to gowns and decor then the bottom look is for you. This gorgeous tablescape works indoor or outdoors. Purple is a huge focus of the tablescape with a grand floral centerpiece so touches of gold with tabletop will bring the whole together. Get the look at P.O.S.H. with Royal Glassware, Gold Radiance Chargers, Barcelona Gold China, and custom napkin rings. (See look below)

Tabletop Tuesday: Pleasing Purple

There is snow coming down outside (not a lot, but still) and chilly temperatures, so we're warming up with a little inspiration from our friends at Todd Events. To remind us that spring is just around the corner, the latest D Weddings features a hue we're seeing a lot of lately - purple. Play it sweet with pastes or glam it up by mixing in black, as shown below. This wouldn't be a bad bet for a Valentine's dinner, now would it?

Tabletop Tuesday: Pink & Purple

Pink and purple can be adorable, they can be sweet, but if you pick your tabletop carefully, they can also transform your setting into an lavish affair. Jordan Payne of Jordan Payne Events perfectly captures this air of opulence with an ombre mix of candy toned hues with darker purples. Revealed in Brides of North Texas' Fall 2012 issue, this tablescape shows just how easy it is to transition pink and purple into a decidedly mature event.

Moodboard: Significant Events of Texas

We love the design of this tablescape by Significant Events of Texas featured in the Spring/Summer 2012 issue of Brides of North Texas. Designer Meredith Commender created a table top out of box springs and make a look that was no less than amazing. To streamline the lush florals by Out of the Garden, Meredith chose our silver chiavari chairs, along with classic silver chargers, flatware, and silver rimmed glassware. This is definitely one for your mood board. Be sure to check out their video on inspiration behind the shoot here.

Just in case the last post didn't make you see the light, we thought we'd give you a bigger taste of the importance of detail.

Silver rimmed china and stemware paired with silver beaded chargers atop Champagne Hammered Velvet equals serious elegance.

Champagne Ruffle Chameleon chair backs. Love.

Double dose of class: Champagne Organza with Double Rhinestone Trim.

With its unique shape and texture, the purple metallic charger sets the foundation for the Sevres china. The Lilac Nu Silk dinner napkins and Amethyst diamond napkin ring are icing on the cake.

Every angel of this table top inspires.

The ornate silver-plated flatware is coming up roses and daisies (literally), which begs the question: Why use plastic?

Amethyst Floral Organza equals petal power.
