wedding I loved working with Kristen & Britton on their wedding at Lanikuhonua on June 5. Her colors were so beautiful & easy to work with. I designed a beautiful wood arbor draped with fuchsia fabric & loaded with a full floral topper which we later reused on their sweetheart table. On the back & sides of the arbor, I draped long strands of crystals & hanging white orchids. We tied beautiful fuchsia wired ribbon on each ceremony chair cushion. After the ceremony, the guests were greeted with cocktails from the Catering Connection. Laura Lewis from Parasol Events coordinated the event wonderfully & the talented photography team from Visionari captured the event & magical evening. I designed a lounge area with our sofas, benches, tables, silk pillows, pretty linens & dramatic crystal chandeliers hanging over the event area. The florals on each table were stunning with loads of crystals dripping onto the table. I love the idea Kristen had for their reception sign in table. Each guest wrote a personal note on the back of a colorful Vintage Hawaiian postcard!

I am in love with Mercury glass! It has such a beautiful old vintage look. I am using lots of mercury glass tea lights & small 4 inch vases in my designs lately. Just purchased blue mercury votives & they are gorgeous!

Last week I participated in the floral showcase at the Wedding Cafe. These photos of my table were shot by the great photographer, Kris Labang . Give Kris a call to chat about your upcoming wedding or event. I love working with manszanita branches. These branches were full of white hydrangeas, red aranda orchids, coral roses & dripping with hanging crystals. The crystal & gold chargers, glass vases, linen & napkin decor are all available for rental from Designs by Hemingway.

I am in love with old vintage bottles & started buying them up like crazy. I have about 50 in my collection so far. I have been renting them out for some of my weddings and they look so amazing with just a single flower lining a table with a pretty linen or an organic table runner. These blues & greens are my fav as I am a big fan of sea glass colors

I got bombarded with 4 weddings beginning Dec. 28 & ending January 4, 2010. This raspberry & eggplant wedding was one of our most colorful & fun weddings over the weekend. Erinn & David flew in from the snowy east coast to have their wedding reception at the beautiful sea side retreat The Bayer Estate. We created a fun lounge area on the beach front with sofas & benches, pillows, vases of floating candles, and tiki torches on the beach. Erinn loved chandeliers so we had several hanging from the beach side trees. Our raspberry uplighting set such a pretty ambiance as the evening settled in. These are photos from my camera but waiting for the photographer Suzanne’s photos soon. Stay tune for more color!!

beach/sea shell themes,
lighting,
rentals I just wanted everyone to see our new Capiz shell chandeliers that we are offering for rental. They are so beautiful!! I will be using these at a beach wedding at the Bayer Estate very soon. Hanging from a tree, tent or arbor, this amazing light is a beautiful focal piece for your wedding or beach party.

Luv the lounge area that we designed for Shay & Nobu in September at the Moana Surfrider Hotel on Waikiki Beach. I am also in love with photographers Wendy & Eric of L’amour Photography. I have to encourage all my brides to check them out. They are young, fresh & have great style. The ocean lawn looked stunning with all our white lanterns, candles & lounge area.

details,
rentals Lanikuhonua is a great design palette for our contemporary lounge furniture & acrylic tables. At night, it was such a beautiful set with the candles & created a little hide-away nook on the beach away from all the dancing & excitement of the evening.
