The Stylish Soiree shared with some great black, white & red details that we know you would enjoy.  This entire chic set up was inspired by Chanel Spring 2010 Ready to Wear runway show that could be translated into a beautifully styled wedding.  There are more photos to see over at SMP from this stylish set up that you might be interested in checking out.

Studio 28 shot this gorgeous set up at Brookside Equestrian Center to resemble the actual Chanel runway show that took place under a huge wooden barn that had a farm-like equestrian feel. If you are already ooh and awing at the red and black flowers they where designed by one of our favorites, JL Designs & Events.

Read on below to learn more on how this stylish event came to life

Rosettes, bows and sheer, feminine fabrics like tulle and lace characterized the bridesmaid looks, which were primarily black and white with vibrant pops of red as seen in the Chanel show. Oversized headpieces with messy hair lent an editorial drama to the girly ensembles, and lace tights were worn under both changes of clothes to mimic those seen on the runway. All three wedding gowns used in the shoot were from L’ezu Atelier in Beverly Hills, and makeup and hair artist Dedra Whitt created the fresh bridal and bridesmaid hair and makeup to mimic what was seen in the show.

The tablescape featured the khaki colored Russian linen from Wildflower Linens paired with a table runner I created from black and white tweed fabric, a classic Chanel fabric choice. Wildflowe’s cream hemstitch ivory napkins were folded beneath the black French glass charger plates from Party Rental King and topped with menus hand-written by Calligraphy Katrina, who also created the red place cards.

Carissa from JL Designs & Events created the floral tablescape with various milk glass containers scattered down the center of a long table. Carissa incorporated a mixture of white and red florals that included ranunculas, tulips, blackberries and anemones, which were prominently featured in the Chanel show attached to shoes, bags and as hair pieces. Carissa also made the stunning bridal and bridesmaid bouquets from anemones and blackberries, and we wrapped the stems in the signature Chanel tweed fabrics.

Which also sums up the look and feel for Mollie and Jim’s seaside wedding that JL Designs was so sweet to share with us.

That twist of fun is a hot dog stand. How great is that? After a long night of dancing it is always nice to top it off with a hot dog.

I love reading Carissa’s descriptions of her designs. Bridal bouquet made up of white mini calas, white ranunculas, white japhette orchids and white tulips…adorned with a vintage inspired rhinestone brooch… Something about how she describes the flowers sounds so fancy.

These bridesmaid dresses are ohh so special. The ruching detail is incredibly flattering and adds that bit of flair that I feel bridesmaid are looking for these days.

A quad of tall glass rectangular vases were filled with submerged white dendrovium orchids and set on top was a large arrangement made up of ivory hydrangea, ivory dahlias, cream colored reflexed roses, white tulips and white ranunculas. A medium sized box was wrapped in taupe dupioni silk and accented around the base by a ring of loose white flora. Set on top was a series of 5 different height rectangular vases holding submerged white dendrovium orchids and a white floating candle…

Again it looks as glamorous and elegant as it sounds.

eco friendly wedding ideas

I came across this on JL Designs and just wanted to share with you if you had not seen this already. The theme for the shoot was “eco-chic”…designing in a sustainable way that is easy on the wallet and easy on the environment without sacrificing style. It was for the second issue of the online magazine, utterly engaged! If you have not checked that out you so should. Stephanie Williams Photography is the genius behind the camera. Sweet and Saucy is responsible for the tasty treats. JL Designs has so many incrdible tips on making a stylish eco friendly yet affordable day possible… read on.

For the table scape, they collected vintage vases and milk glass at local thrift stores to be sustainable (and budget-friendly), trying to re-use as much as possible they where then filled them with varying shades of yellow ranunculas, lisianthus, tulips and astilbe…buying flowers as local and domestic as possible helps lessen the gas and emissions used in transporting the flowers from where they are grown…also, by arranging flowers in vases with only water, it reduces the need for floral foam, which is not bio-degradable and takes forever to break down in landfills. That is good to know I for one did not know that.

The tablescape and bouquets featured local, organic flowers and everlasting flowers carved from bolsa wood.

Melody from Sweet and Saucy created this beautiful cake with a homespun feel…going with a butter cream frosting is always less expensive than fondant.By incorporating the cake, desserts and sparkling lemonade bottles into the actual table scape, it lessens the amount of floral needed, saving on costs (and waste)!

The bistro chairs, china and napkins where rented.  JL Designs decided to go a different route with the linens, they popped into a salvation army and found some great ivory sheets for $1.00 each!  one even had an adorable eyelet lace border.

JL Designs had an amazing idea to  drape all of your tables in vintage floral sheets, making each tablescape slightly different from the next but still keeping with an overall consistent color scheme and feel?   JL Designs would LOVE for one of their brides to allow them to do this for her wedding… hint hint. Who ever does this, is one smart cookie.

Printing your invites and stationary on recycled paper earns major brownie points for being “green, ” according to JL Designs. Dlsh Design is responsible for these lovely eco friendly invitations.
