I love entertaining! When I moved to Fort Worth I was in search of a florist and after many attempts, I found Sabrina Renteria with Vivienne & Vine.  Sabrina is flawless and has the same standard of perfection as I. I have been blessed to have her by my side for many events, large and small. Sabrina knows my exact taste, favorite florals and colors! She has the incredible knack for making the most simple florals into a work of art!

When we were in the planning phase of our Ala von Auersperg Summer Al Fresco photo shoot, Sabrina took one look at the garments we were featuring and knew exactly the look we wanted to achieve. A tropical and vibrant feel with bursts of color and the palms she knows I adore! She and her team created the tablescape incorporating red anthuriums, coral charm peony, hermosa pink roses, safari sunset bleached Italian ruscusm craspedia (yellow billy balls), playa blanca roses, and robolini palm aspidistra leaves. Vivienne & Vine is a full service floral design company that provides floral deliveries for special events and occasions also offering weekly in-home delivery with talented designers bringing new and fresh arrangements straight to your door.

Mixing stemware, flatware and dishes (both china and pottery) creates such an eclectic look to a tabletop. I love mixing bold colors and unique designs to create a statement table. Allison Sibley with Royal Event Rentals helped me!

We used a mixture of my personal collection and unique pieces from Royal Events Rentals. Four place settings on the main dining table were adorned with a beautiful palm leaf, silver beaded glass charger plates and clear glass dinner plates. Green vintage goblets were perfect to add a bit of flair.  A bistro table for two boasts my personal white pottery pieces and beautiful silver glass reef charger plates serving as a perfect foundation! I added a bit of nostalgia, my mom’s clear water goblets. Mix and matching is key to ensure your table is never boring! Royal Event Rentals is a rental company who provides stunning tablescapes for weddings, small parties and corporate events.  Allison’s linen selection is unmatched and her unique place settings are simply incredible.

This post wouldn’t have been possible without Vivienne & Vine for supplying the stunning florals and Royal Event Rentals DFW for the props. Thank you for your love of all things My So-Called Fabulous!
