Love is in the air as we finished up one of our all time favorite jobs over the weekend in Canoga Park at Orcutt Ranch. Shabby chic, rustic and purple was the inspiration provided by the bride. We loved the cozy room with its beautiful glass wall to set our table up against, while still enjoying views of the gazebo and garden in full bloom, along with two walls of shelving for extra goodies. Take a look at all of the lovely, feminine details, many of them photographed by the supremely talented and generous Kurt Boomer of Kurt Boomer Photography, who shared his gorgeous photos and made our work look that much better. Enjoy!

Lots of feminine details with a gorgeous backdrop of rosette fabric panels and a tiered lacy table cloth with burlap rose swags set the stage for this pretty table. We had a great time collecting a beautiful, eclectic and interesting array of vessels and platters for all of our yummy treats.

I always ask my brides to think of a special treat to surprise their grooms with to add to the dessert table. We lucked out because our grooms favorite team worked with our color palette. Much appreciated!

Shelving merchandised with candlelit mason jars, cupcakes and popcorn boxes. Walking into the room with our table and these walls of goodies was like walking into a clean yet romantic sweet shoppe (yes, with an extra "p" and "e"). So, so pretty.

SIDENOTE: I really lucked out with this gig and I have Facebook to thank for it. One of my cookie decorating FB friends, the uber-talented Teresa of Sugar T's Cookies, volunteered to come on down and help me set up, and I was so grateful for the help! The crazy thing is Teresa and I had never met before. That's the power of Facebook and this fantastic sisterhood of cookie artists. Thanks again Teresa - you made setting up fast and fun!
