Looking for a fun way to celebrate the bride-to-be? Consider throwing a lavish garden luncheon like this! The garden room at the historic Belle Meade Country Club was the amazing setting for this elegant party beautifully designed by Carol Reynolds, owner of Stone Cottage Paperie and captured by Amelia Fletcher Photography.
From the elegant invitations and menu cards to the bridesmaid gifts (monogrammed clutches) and garden blooms, this beautiful fall luncheon was thoughtfully designed in hues of blue and terra cotta. It’s one stylish party celebrating the bride-to-be, and we’re excited to share it all with you. See some of our favorite shots below and check out the full gallery for every last image.
Fall themed bridal shower
Carol Reynolds, owner of Stone Cottage Paperie designed all of the invitations, menus and bridesmaids gifts (coordinating calling cards for everyone-) and all of the decor. It was held at the historic Belle Meade Country Club in Nashville, Tennessee, but the garden room they chose was totally empty, so Carol brought in extra furniture and the antique screen to help fill the space out. She used beautiful blues and terra cotta tones for the design which were ideal for the fall theme.
the design of the luncheon
From Carol Reynolds, owner of Stone Cottage Paperie: The cut velvet tablecloth was truly swoon worthy! 4 other fabulous ladies helped give the luncheon with me and we decided to use our own antique Limoge plates and blue & white vases for the table decor. Lee Wheeler (one of the ladies) did all the arrangements by herself… a total of 40 arrangements throughout the room and down the table!
For an extra special touch- and as our present to the bride, we had napkins embroidered with the bride and groom’s wedding monogram- so she would always have something special from the luncheon.
