Just in time for Thanksgiving and all the other fun holiday celebrations coming up, we just finished a yummy little tablescape project with some of our talented wedding friends in LA. And the photos, beautifully executed by Erin Hearts Court, turned out so lovely.
Danielle of Brown Paper Design did all the flowers, including the gorgeous bouquet at the bottom. Peggy of Blue Pool Road brought the pretty paper details and Amanda and Kristina pitched in with styling. And we were extremely lucky to be able to shoot at Gjelina (thanks Danielle for the hook up!), one of the most beautiful and delicious restaurants in Venice (arguably all of LA). If any of you live here, you HAVE to try Gjelina, even if it’s just to ogle the beautiful interior.
Have you ever seen anything as beautiful as that wall??? (except for our tablescape, of course).
And the chandelier… we couldn’t resist showing, even though we didn’t have anything to do with it. Vintage meat hook strung with an eclectic mix of bulbs. We dare someone to take that on as a DIY project.
Ahh, the bouquet. So beautiful with the silky grey ribbon and orange millet.
We hope this inspires you all for your upcoming weddings and holiday parties!

Have you ever seen anything as beautiful as that persimmon?
beautiful job ladies! the centerpieces are gorgeous…
Simply stunning! I love the persimmons, they remind me of my years celebrating the holiday in Northern Cali when we would pick them from the yard.
Really beautiful. I love the color palette and the little Open Me place card. If this is the table, I can’t imagine what the meal tastes like!
oh my… the colors in the arrangements against all those natural elements is simply STUNNING!!! gorgeous gorgeous inspiration.
What a gorgeous venue!! The roughness of those fixtures along with the pretty wall engravings create such an awesome feel. I will have to check it out on my next trip to So Cal. I loved your color palette for the table setting as well. The burgundy and purple flowers look great against the backdrop of that wall. Thank you so much!
fab…love the lighting
So gorgeous! You all did an amazing job!
the wall is breathtaking! the mixture of the elements of the venue with the simply chic table setting is just perfect. <3

absolutely stunning photos and styling. love how you used gjelina as your backdrop - that restaurant is just delicious (not to mention the design of it is fantastic).
Beautiful job ladies ! so inspiring
What a completely stunning tablescape, from the deep fall shades of the flowers to the simple drama of the persimmon on each rustic plate. So stylish and perfect for an autumnal table… I’m definitely going to incorporate this palette into the design for my Thanksgiving table! -http://notes.camillestyles.com/2009/11/18/camille-does-thanksgiving/
So pretty! Love the colors for fall. It reminds me of the tablescape I recently did for my own Sunday Hat Birthday Brunch in October. Fruit and flowers rock! http://corettaselegantevents.blogspot.com/2009/10/another-snapshot-teaser-of-sunday-hat.html
Oh my! This is breathtaking. If I weren’t already committed, I’d be changing my wedding colors to this.
More please! Marveling at the unexpected combination of texture - nice work!
So gorgeous! I adore persimmons -they add such pretty color and texture!
