colorful, modern wedding

We had so much fun working on Katie and Max’s wedding, and we’re just loving seeing it in print in Southern Weddings. We’ll save the details behind this backyard affair until later in the year when we do a full post with some of our favorite images captured by Jodi Miller Photography. In the meantime, see more over here in their gallery. colorful, modern weddingPhotography by Jodi Miller Photography; Planning & Floral Design by Merriment; Wedding Design a collaboration between Merriment and the Bride & Groom!

richmond wedding wednesdays: amuse restaurant at vmfa

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

There are so many ways you could design a really beautiful, modern reception at Amuse Restaurant at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. This week, though, it’s all about fun. A short modern dress. Maybe a smile booth? Jonathan Adler salt and pepper shakers as cake toppers. Bright yellow pomanders. And a sleek cocktail party for, oh, about 150.*

modern wedding inspirationI’m really in love with this tablescape — its color palette and the origami details — designed by stylist Lo Bjurulf for Ikea Sweden. The design was inspired by the upcoming nuptials of the crown princess of Sweden.
