dinner series | intimate gatherings no.2

en·ter·tain·ing /ˌentərˈtāniNG/  adjective- providing amusement or enjoyment.

We recognize that there is something about a table shared by friends, not just weddings or annual soiree’s. We feel entertaining should be simple, uncomplicated and natural.   There is nothing greater than dining together… you don’t need weeks of planning, seating charts or name cards.  when planning an intimate dinner set the stage with simple floral, great food and most of all A M A Z I N G company.  One again we collabrated with our fabulous neighbors at square one cafe to bring you the first of many post for our dinner series.  A big thanks to brenna with flying 3k photography for capturing all the beautiful details.

Cheers!

Heather + Amanda

winter loveliness | oh deer!

its winter and there’s nothing better than gathering your family + friends for a special occasion.  we had so much fun working with our suitemates at grit + gold for this winter inspired wedding. the shoot’s setting and feel was winter woodsy. touches of antlers + birch can be found throughout from stationery and centerpieces, to the unbelievably beautifully fun antler and floral head piece.  The sweet treats were the perfect feel of handmade goodness that evokes the feeling of “home”.
