Letter from the Editors We're all inspired by the images we take in every day. Movies and television shows have been inďŹ&#x201A;uencing design, fashion, and event design for a long time, and it seemed ďŹ tting to pay hommage to some of the most stylistically inďŹ&#x201A;uential pieces on the large and small screens.

bianca mascorro

We're incredibly excited to share this issue with you. It's huge double the size of a standard issue - but the work is consistently stunning. We're thrilled with the results and so pleased to see how our theme has really motivated our teams to think outside the box. We hope you enjoy this as much as we do!

red wine hot fudge sauce

yields approximately four 8 ounce jars Red wine gives a subtle, fruity undertone to this rich, pudding-like fudge sauce, which can also be used as a decadent pudding or pie or tart ďŹ lling.

ingredients 2 cups granulated sugar 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1 1/2 cups heavy cream 1/2 cup red wine 1/2 cup water 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

directions In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt. Add cream, wine, water, and butter and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is boiling. Continue to cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. If pouring into jars, transfer the hot fudge sauce to a large glass measuring cup with a pour spout to ďŹ ll the jars. Cool, cap, and refrigerate after opening. For sugar free fudge sauce, replace the granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon liquid stevia, 1/4 cup inulin, and 1 cup xylitol.

Most interpretations of Alice in Wonderland feature flowery tea parties and stacks of delicate china, but I designed this dessert table to reflect Tim Burton's moody film adaptation. Cloudy skies, Alice's various dresses, and the overgrown forest inspired the table's more groom-friendly grey, aquamarine, and fern color palette. To channel the woodsy setting, I crafted candy cones and cupcake wrappers from sheets of birch bark. A wreath of twisted branches mimics the forest's snarled trees, while his and hers wedding cakes and faux bois butterscotch candies complete the earthy vibe. Ivy-hued ribbon twines around vintage keys and sweets to subtly hint at Alice's time in the Room of Doors. Her magical shrinking and growing is represented by miniature cupcakes, giant ribbon candy, and miniaturist Stephanie Kilgast's dessert table reproduction. Invite your guests to the buffet with the "Eat Me" cupcake toppers and "Drink Me" bottle labels I have provided. Each label features one of the many creatures Alice encounters on her journey. A collection of oddly shaped bottles further emphasizes the otherworldly feel of the buffet. Still have your heart set on serving tea? Turn tradition on its head by offering Earl Greyinfused macarons and chocolates nestled in tea pots.

inspiration Admit it: sometimes inspiration can be too much of a good thing. With so many charming blogs and magazines churning out fabulous images and DIY projects, every bride experiences idea overload at some point during her engagement! But committing to a cohesive look and feel for your wedding is key; it keeps you sane during the planning, it helps you narrow down your options for vendors and details, and it makes the big day even more memorable for you and your guests. We transformed our mild â&#x20AC;&#x201C; okay, massive â&#x20AC;&#x201C; obsession with Pride and Prejudice into an occasion worthy of Darcy and Elizabeth themselves. But our process and the lessons we learned along the way are useful when concepting and creating any wedding, whether your style is Austen (Jane), Austin (Texas) or Austin (Powers)!

The best thing about inspiration is that it really can come from anywhere. A favourite book, ﬁlm, poem or painting. A collection of faded ancestral photos. The British History class in which you met your groom (hey, the Tudor Period was seriously spicy!) Once you’ve selected a source, envision the event you want to create. These initial brainstorms should be vivid and even a little crazy; you can always scale back later. We knew our Pride and Prejudice wedding would blend Darcy’s polished reserve with Elizabeth’s outspoken passion. We pictured ﬂorals gathered from the gardens of Pemberley and the meadows beyond; place settings formal enough for Lady Catherine but spirited enough for Mrs. Bennett; an overall sensibility as airy and lighthearted as a minuet. With every decision we asked WWJD: What Would Jane Do?

nonpareil magazine

research the visuals Start with wedding blogs and magazines, of course, but explore other avenues as well. What textiles and materials, patterns and themes, are relevant to your inspiration source? A volume on Regency interiors led us to the upholstery store, where we found a stunning bolt of silk chinoiserie. We could afford only a tiny swatch, but we loved the butterfly motif so much that it reappeared on the cake, the dessert display, even a paper garland. The stripes on the stationery and our bride’s jacket? Spotted on a recent BBC production of Emma. The marbled paper journals that guests take home as favours? Sparked by the swirling surface of a breathtaking but out-of-budget lamp at the flea market. Revel in the journey of discovery, and your final destination--aka your wedding day--will be all the more rich and meaningful.

twists on a trend A quick scroll through the blogs reveals countless wedding trends (faux-moustache, I’m looking at you.) These trends catch on because they’re fun, they’re sweet, or they’re just plain cool. But the deeper you dig with your individual planning process, the more likely you are to reinvent those trends in your own special way. Instead of posing with Polaroids of each other, our bride and groom held miniature portraits based on paintings from the 1810’s. And rather than take photos before a cloth backdrop, they stood in front of a folding screen--one that we covered with ‘wallpaper’ created by scanning our precious

taking partners No matter how much you love that photojournalist who shoots understated black-and-whites, he might not be the best candidate to capture your peacock-hued Moulin Rouge reception. And that ﬂorist who created the exotic orchid bouquet for your cousin may not be right for the Wuthering Heights wildﬂower arrangements you’d like. Look for vendors whose style and previous

work speaks not only to your heart but to the sensibility of your inspiration source. For our Austen affair, a timeless, quietly cinematic style of photography ﬁt the bill perfectly--as did a ﬂorist who gracefully straddled the line between elegant and effervescent. Finally, whatever your inspiration, be sure to share it with potential vendors. You never know when you’ll meet a caterer who loves the baking scenes in Chocolat as much as you do!

think creatively

simply adore the jewelled floral headbands on today’s bridal scene, so we were thrilled to learn that women of Austen’s time wore remarkably similar hairpieces. We’ve never been to the English countryside, but we figure our palette of soothing pastels and gilt accents would look right at home there. As for the collection of vintage teacups that housed our centrepiece, well, they do drink a lot of tea in Pride and Prejudice! You’ll find that after a while, your inspiration source acts less as a guideline and more as a jumping-off point. So when you reach that point, leap away!

Wedding planning is like shopping or foreign policy: with enough imagination and smooth talking, you can justify any decision. We

Using Alfred Hitchcock’s visually rich romantic thriller, To Catch a Thief, as inspiration, we created a lush and whimsical tablescape for a decadent event. Working with a palette drawn directly from the ﬁlm’s ofﬁcial poster (navy, yellow, white and teal) we styled a festive, yet formal atmosphere. Our approach was eclectic, using both modern and vintage touches, a variety of textures and playful details set against the backdrop of the French Riviera. The gorgeous 1955 Edith Head fashion, priceless jewels, vintage typography and glamorous hotels and casinos in the South of France yielded a world of ideas!

Many of the elements from our event were direct interpretations of the ﬁlm’s theme, which centers around a jewel thief. To articulate this theme in a contemporary way, we utilized ring box placecards, gold dusting on the cupcakes and incorporated sparkling vintage brooch accents in the ﬂoral arrangements (a Blossom and Branch signature). The jewel thief concept led to the idea of a key—representing both the literal unlocking of a jewelry box and the metaphoric unlocking of Grace Kelly’s heart. The key imagery was carried through the event, from the paper goods to our feature ribbon wall.

The ﬂowers were designed in a European pavé style with vintage jewel brooch accents. The decadent centerpieces of peonies, hydrangea, French tulips, craspedia, sweet peas, garden roses, astilbe and celosia were grouped in long and low clear glass vases down the centerline of the table. Fragrant blooms were used to evoke a sweet summer night on the Riviera.

bleached and tea-dyed fabrics

While not known for being adventurous, hobbits do know a thing or two about celebrations. They have a taste for simple fare of the ﬁnest quality: freshly baked breads, artisanal cheeses, and local ales.

supplies natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, or wool household bleach black tea water

The invitation to our hobbit wedding was inspired by Bilbo’s front door and gives the impression of reading a public notice that the “long awaited party” has ﬁnally arrived. We included a detailed map to help guests ﬁnd their way to the Shire and made our own envelopes from brown craft paper lined with pages from the story of Bilbo’s birthday.

bleached fabrics In a large bucket or pot mix bleach with water. We used a ratio of 1:3. Be sure to work in a well-ventilated area. Immerse the fabric in the bleach mixture, ensuring that it is fully submerged, and stir occasionally. Once the desired fading is achieved, remove the fabric and rinse thoroughly.

Many of the decorations were handmade from tea-dyed fabrics, a simple process that produces an instantly rustic and vintage look. We found a variety of silver plated goblets at local second hand shops which were turned upside down to serve as candleholders. Handmade and vintage ceramic containers were used as planters for our living wildﬂower arrangements. For our guests: Gandalf’s ﬁreworks inspired our favors, each one containing treats and small gifts.

tea-dyed fabrics Bring enough water to cover your fabric to a rolling boil; we used a large crockpot on the stove. Remove from heat and add 2 – 4 tea bags; allow to steep for about ten minutes then remove them from the dye. Submerge the fabric completely, stirring occasionally until the desired colour is reached. Our fabrics were dyed for ﬁve to thirty minutes. Remove fabric and rinse until water runs clear.

To roughen the edges, wash the squares by hand and leave to dry; iron lightly if necessary. Using a 5/8 of an inch seam allowance, stitch the squares, wrong sides together, along three of the edges. Stuff lightly with fiber fill. Stitch on top of the original seam, this time along all four edges, sealing the pillow. Stitch the middle of the ribbon to the center of the pillow.

Cut fabric and paper into triangles. Ours were three inches wide at the base and ten inches long. Using a 5/8 of an inch seam allowance stitch along the wide edge (base) of the triangles, taking a few “free” stitches between each one. Alternate between the different fabrics and papers. Do not cut the thread between triangles. 50 triangles will create a sixteen foot garland.

In the movie Amelie, one message stands out above the rest: enjoy the simple pleasures in life. Simple pleasures such as friends, family, good food and the beauty of nature are the perfect elements to inspire a lovely, meaningful wedding, which is why we were so excited to tackle translating this movie into a well-designed wedding.

nonpareilmag.com

nonpareil magazine

nonpareilmag.com

The Design Enjoying the simple pleasures in life became an overarching theme for the design and ambiance of the shoot. The essence of this theme was captured in Meg Perotti’s photography, The Stylish Soiree’s design and styling, Symmetry Beauty’s hair and makeup, LoveSpun Film’s video, Little Miss Press’s letterpress, and Pink Lincoln’s flowers. Our team took inspiration from Amelie’s playful, light-hearted nature as well as the blend of old and new that was ever-present in the movie’s set design. The simple pleasure theme was echoed throughout the tablescape design, from the old oak farmhouse chairs provided by the venue to the crochet table overlay, to the French country style plates on the table and the antique coffee and sugar tins filled with fresh baked French bread on the table. We added unique, quirky touches with the butter dish painted to look like a woman in a dress, filled with fluffy meringues, and little green dishes piled high with raspberries.

The venue itself played an important role in the ambiance. The shoot took place at the stunning Sand Rock Farm in Aptos, California just outside Monterey, which we chose for its ethereal setting amidst the trees and ivy. The Amelie reception table was set in Sand Rock Farm’s historic1885 barrel aging room, an open-air old stone building criss-crossed with lanterns and covered with hanging ivy vines. Sand Rock Farms perfectly captured the magical, youthful feeling of Amelie’s happiest childhood memories, and was exactly what we imagined as the perfect setting for her wedding to Nino. We loved that the venue felt like an oasis in the middle of this crazy world; a place where a family could gather together and enjoy the simple pleasures of the beautiful setting. In the movie, the green, aqua and red hues played a huge role in the overall vision of the ﬁlm, which is how we came up with the color palette for the design. To accent the bright hues and bring them back down to earth

(as well as compliment the natural setting of the venue) we used more muted tones of green and aqua and added in a khaki color and a deep brown with the linens. The table linen had a rich, luxurious sheen and deep color that, paired with the crochet overlay and coarse cotton napkins created a casual layering of elements that was key in the movie. We placed the bread, raspberries (one of Amelie’s childhood pleasures) and meringue on the table for a cozy family style meal, For a guest sign-in book, Meg took photoboothstyle pictures to mimic Nino’s lost photobooth album in the movie. We imagined that Amelie and Nino would deﬁnitely rent a photobooth for guests to use during the reception since it played such an integral role in their early relationship. The paper goods, created by Little Miss Press, also played a key role in the design. The invitations featured the French phrase, “Voulez-vous… me recontrer?” (translation: Will you meet me?), which came from the scene in Amelie where she invites Nino to meet her after she found his album of discarded photo strips. Since it was the catalyst for their relationship, we thought it would be cute to include in the invitation materials. Little Miss Press also letterpressed coordinating dinner menus for the table, along with hand calligraphied belly bands that doubled as place cards.

The favor table was re-imagined as a busy Parisian park bench with old-fashioned red and aqua colored sodas, striped paper straws, and meringues lined up in rows on poppy-covered platters. As a child, everyone enjoys sipping on sugary soda and eating bitesized desserts, which once again tied into the simple pleasures theme from the movie. Each soda bottle was embellished with a heart cut-out tag from the leftover printed invitations that was secured to the bottle with a length hand-dyed silk ribbon in a bold hue. A mini croquembouche, the traditional French wedding cake, Eiffel tower replicas, an old clock of Paris and black and white Paris postcard display rounded out the decorations on the favor table we created for Amelie and Nino’s wedding.

The Wedding Day Style Styling the Amelie bridal look was harder than it looked, since we didn’t imagine her to dress as a typical bride. Amelie is all about simple, understated style, which is why we chose a short dress with a vintage crochet feel, paired with pops of red and super simple accessories – a girlish ribbon belt, red satin t-strap peep toes, white wedding day bangles for a touch of bohemia, and a long-chain necklace that added interest to the simple neckline of the dress. Rebecca Butz and Tamra-Marie for Symmetry Beauty were responsible for the Amelieesque hair and makeup, respectively. Amelie’s makeup and hair were very natural in the movie, so they created an enhanced natural look on the model that kept things young and fresh.

Recreating the Look Arrange the vases by having one center anchor element (such as the center tulip vase), two symmetrical taller elements on each side of the anchor (the two tall dusty miller and two skinny, tall tulip vases). Then, mix in the smaller elements by creating odd-numbered groupings (for instance, flank one of the medium-sized tulip vases with one small dusty set up tips Plan to have approximately 2 vases or miller vase and one small vase of ranunculas containers for every foot of table length. For for an odd-numbered group of 3 vases). the Amelie shoot, for example, we had 17 The narrower the mouth of the vases you use, vases on an eight foot table. the less flowers you need and the easier it is Leave arranging different types of flowers in to arrange the flowers in the formation you the same vase to the professionals.

When collecting vases or containers to hold the ﬂowers, try to keep with a common theme so the end result is cohesive. For our Amelie shoot, Christine from Pink Lincoln Designs provided us with all glass containers of different heights and shapes. They varied in style dramatically, but worked well since the clear glass acted as the unifying element.

Keep in mind that round tables always require less ﬂoral arrangements than rectangular tables. We have created a guideline below to setup that applies to a standard eight foot banquet table, but for a 72” round you will likely only have room for about 1/3 the amount of vases and décor.

For our Mad Men inspired wedding photo shoot, we decided to use rich, saturated colors and interesting textures throughout the design to evoke the era. The flowers were designed using unusual and unexpected elements such as deep aubergine artichokes, vibrant orange kumquats, and fuchsia ranunculus. The team also wanted to utilize lots of iconic brand imagery and retro advertisements throughout the design to reflect Mad Men’s advert-centric environment. A 1960’s Chevy Malibu and a custom piece of luggage were just the finishing touches we needed to bring the decadent era to life. printable tips For our seating cards we thought giving a nod to some iconic brands of the late 50’s and early 60’s would be fun. We made ‘vintage’ soda bottles with guests’ names printed on the upper labels. Each table could be named after a soda brand so peoples drinks could lead them to their seats. We found that the clear Izzy soda bottles worked well for the ‘7up’ and any microbrew root beer or beer that comes in a dark brown, glass bottle looked great with the ‘Moxie’ label. We also found using a bold font such as Princetown Let for the ‘7up’ and an elegant italicized font such as Adobe Pro Caslon Italic for the ‘Moxie’ upper labels worked well with the corresponding lower labels. In keeping with our theme, we used a vintage car in the background of our menu cards, using Blackoak STD as our font. Printing the menu on a heavier paper worked well for us but doing it on a glossy paper like a magazine page would work, too.

fondue recipe Fondue was a very popular dish in the late 50’s and early 60’s and we think it’s a great D.I.Y. wedding menu option. Trays of chopped veggies and baguette ready to be dipped in this delicious cheese fondue will not only make your table colorful, it is a tasty meal, and certainly a wedding dinner your guests are unlikely to soon forget. We’ve included a very traditional Swiss fondue recipe but, if you’re feeling creative, try playing with it a bit. Using different cheeses (something like pepperjack if your feeling spicy) and alcohol types (beer and cheese is always a good combo) is a fun way to personalize your wedding meal. ingredients 1 clove garlic 1 1/2 cups Fendant wine 1 lb Natural Gruyere cheese, grated 2 teaspoons cornstarch 3 tablespoons kirsch Freshly ground pepper to taste

step one Cut the garlic clove in half and rub all over the bottom of a large earthenware pot. Pour in the wine and heat just to the boiling point. step two Add your cheese to the heated wine and continue to stir all the while. Mix the kirsch and the cornstarch together. When the cheese has melted and is just barely simmering, add the kirsch cornstarch mixture to it. step three Pour the fondue into your fabulous vintage fondue pots and light a Sterno lamp underneath to keep the cheese bubbling ever so slightly. If it becomes too thick just add more wine. step four Dip your veggies and bread in and enjoy! Don’t be afraid to get creative with your veggies. Everything from radishes to carrots can be added to the mix. If you want to get really adventurous try some fruit or a charchuterie plate as well.

do it yourself mint julep favors In simple DIY fashion, and continuing with the very "Mad Men" theme of signature classic cocktails, I decided to create a "make a mint julep favor". The compact and stylized little token has all the makings for the sweet summertime drink, ďŹ nished with a tail-tag that can be customized with your names, wedding date, or in our case, just a simple saying.

ingredients and supplies small sugar cubes fresh mint small burlap bag miniature bourbon bottle "Mix a Mint Julep" printable cocktail recipe package of retro paper straws

Most of the contents are easy-to-ďŹ nd grocery and convenience store staples. The small mint julip cups and drawstring bag can be purchased at a bulk-rate discount from event supply stores such as Jamali Garden.

step one Lay out all materials. If you so desire, customize your mini burlap bags with a monogram stamp, or just the word "sweetness", as shown here. Allow to dry, then place about 6 to 8 cubes in the bags. Place heavier items in the julep cup ďŹ rst to support the lighter favor contents. step two Roll up the mixology cards. Place the rolled card and straw in the julip cup. step three Fresh mint can be purchased up to one day ahead, but no earlier. Keep the mint in the crisper of your refrigerator. Be sure to add the fresh mint spring right before you give the favors to your guests, or it will wilt. If your favors will be placed at the guests' place settings, have your venue garnish the mint sprigs for you.

antique books in shades of blue to give the table interest and dimension. Tucking in loose sheets of piano music gave the somewhat formal table a more carefree look, and we printed the sheets ourselves on newsprint paper. The main focal point of the table was the burst of cerulean blue in our glitter candles perched high on the silver candelabra, again, combining the proper with the fanciful. The glittered candles are tremendously high impact and a cinch to create yourself!

Using The Great Gatsby as an inspiration was pure joy! We took the carefree nature of the time period and married it with a touch of tradition and structure to appease both the traditional bride as well as the vintage and whimsical. We translated this into a muted palate of neutrals, lots of white and some pops of blue – ideal for a sunny summer wedding. The personal flowers reflected that of the centerpieces with full blooms and tones of We wanted to keep within the same emotional grey.

favor boxes We fancied up some Paper Source favor boxes with a little bit of ribbon and an embossed monogram tag. For a ribbon wrapped pillow box, cut a length or ribbon just long enough so it wraps around the box and overlaps onto itself. Secure the bottom piece of ribbon as well as the overlap with double stick tape. With another piece of double stick tape, secure the monogram label in place. silhouette frames To create the silhouette frames, purchase an assortment of thrift store frames (ours were no more than $3 each) and spray paint them in your desired colors. If there is laminate or plastic pieces on the frame, be sure to use spray paint speciďŹ cally formulated for those types of materials. Set aside to dry.
