Styled Shoot With West Elm Scarsdale

Here are more lovely images from the styled shoot we did recently with a fantastic group of collaborators. (For part one, see Thinking Inside The Box.)

We composed the bridal bouquet and centerpiece arrangements with loose, romantic blooms in a soft color palette of cream, lavender, blush and green. Dahlias played a starring role, supported by roses and hydrangea. Furniture and accessories in rustic wood and gleaming metal gave the set a a modern and glamorous look. Inspired? Shop with a West Elm discount code.

We Love: Faceted Glass Terrariums from West Elm

glass-terrarium-boxes-West-Elm

We were so inspired by the way Helen Guzman, of Bonito Designs, displayed roses like precious jewels at a recent shoot. It’s easy to imagine more ways to use these glass terrariums and boxes by West Elm. They would make exquisite table card holders. Or, fill one with a few berries, a citrus fruit or a sprigs of herbs, to display next to the description of a signature wedding cocktail. At home, use one on a bedside or coffee table, to display wedding keepsakes like the ribbon and pearls that adorned your bouquet, your groom’s bow tie, or the jeweled comb you wore in your hair.
