Loving this inspiration board created by Brenda on Brenda's Wedding Blog.
A trip over the water to Morocco is on my list later this year, I look at it every night from my house!

A Spanish Beach Wedding


We were delighted to be hired to dress a lovely Spanish Beach Restaurant, Aqui Te Quiero Ver, for a wedding at the end of July. After some deliberation on the colour scheme the bride opted for a lovely idea of using the pink bouganvilla with a fabulous plumbago lilac.
We had table runners made up, used stargazers to add in that wow factor and the smell, scattered pink bouganvilla on the tables and decorated the posts with small sprigs of it.
The ceiling on the terrace and indoors was decorated with white lanterns to create a truly magical effect as the sun started to set. We have nagged this fabulous new photographer for more photos of the lanterns! In the meantime visit Andreas's website for more of his stunning photographs www.andreasholm.com

More from the Chopard Morrocan Party Marbella Club

Ok so my small Pentax is not doing the trick, I was delighted when Carlos sent me this pro photo of the Moroccan Night, more to come! Here you can see how amazing this evening was for the Chopard Gala Night. We do really need a before and after shot though as this is a white beach bar!

Wedding at La Finca de la Concepcion









We were delighted to be involved in the decoration of this wedding organised by the lovely Heather at Fiestasol. There was a lot of thought and planning that went into this wedding. I met the bride last year in October, on my birthday and it was also her's! She had an inspiration board to show me which was lovely with all her ideas and dreams to create the perfect day.
Gradually we put ideas together and ummed and arrrhhh over all the details. The end result a fabulous day, fabulous flowers, and all the details that made this wedding truly special.
I have since had a lovely email "Thank you for all your help on our wedding day, we had a wonderful day and the venue looked lovely, the flowers were beautiful just what I had imagined". Our thanks yet again to Jeremy Standley for supplying us with fabulous photos!

Beautiful wedding in Private Villa in Benahavis



We were delighted to be involved in the decoration of a beautiful wedding in a private villa (that I want to live in!) in Benahavis organised by Sue at Spanish Dream Weddings.
For more photos of this wedding visit Jeremy Standley's website.
Eventful though, the next day we had gone to clear down this wedding and popped into see Jeremy for a cup of tea, when there was a nasty crash outside his apartment, having spent an hour helping out the the aftermath, we arrived at the villa to melting candles! C'est la vie!

Chopard Moroccan Party at Marbella Club







Hot or what!
Here we are decorating the Marbella Club's Chiringuito for the Chopard Jewellery Morrocan Night.
Just when we thought we were going to have a quiet August, the phone starts ringing!
Carlos from Lipara Productions needed our help with putting this amazing Moroccan party together, not only completely covering the chiringuito with fabrics but needed a stylist on board for the day plus our team to complete this party within 4 hours, by the time our team had finished it looked amazing. We were thrilled and the decorations Carlos and his wife has supplied for us to use were really something else. A huge effort and we have to go back tonight to clear down so drinking lots of coffee! x
