Metallic Trends: Take Two :-)

Below is the second installment of our editorial shoot that was featured on OneWed's Blog!!  I love how we styled this shoot to show that even the little details make an impact on your event decor... whether it's the lonely bookcase in the corner of the room, or the foyer table in the entryway.... put your personal style into your decor. 

Pops of color can really transform the room, and keep in mind the venue that you are holding your event!  Work with what you already have and incorporate elements that will even further your vision without spending a fortune!  Most of the statement pieces and accessories in this feature were found at local antique shops and/or consignment shops!  Mismatched china for less than a dollar?  Don't mind if we do!  It gives your place settings some character as long as they still complement eachother!

*************
Yesterday we featured four inspiring wedding reception tabletops that incorporate on-trend metallics. And today... we've got four more unique styles to make your heart skip a beat!

8- Divine Cupcake Display If you've decided on cupcakes instead of a traditional wedding cake, have fun displaying the tasty treats for your wedding guests! Using assorted china gives a welcoming look to the entire table!
