Crystal Centerpieces... Are They Vintage Too? YES, YES, YES! the Jones Victorian Estate (714) 343-1964

Hi!

Can a vintage theme also include crystal?

Absolutely!

Check out these crystal centerpieces that were created with our vintage crystal vessels!

OoOoOoOooo, I love them!

How about this double-decker crystal arrangement? ...

Even the bottom crystal was accented by flowers!!!

Here, the crystal ice tea doubled as a fantastic vessel for another centerpiece.

We mixed sizes and styles of crystal for a vintage vignette!

I love the combination of mixed crystal containers!

Here is an up close photo of the detail on the vases.

The flowers are gorgeous and really pop with the crystal. 

What is your dream?

Let's get talking and planning!

Doors... They're Not Just for Opening! Orange County Wedding location - Estate wedding 714-744-1608

 \Hi! I found an old door with a lovely window recently and it has now found a lovely home with all my wedding props! It's a wonderful accent and a lovely detail to add. The doors may be decorated with flowers, special sayings, family photos... there are any number of decoration ideas available. They can go anywhere but I particularly love them as the entrance to the ceremony site.

These are just  a few of the fun with doors!

"I feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I'm not afraid to look behind them." Elizabeth Taylor

We have beautiful French Doors for the assigned seating! No one will loose their cards!!!

In this picture, a special family photo display was added to the middle!

Welcome! An open door is the best welcome!

Is there a place for a door at your wedding? 

Doors and windows outside? Yes, they are a marvelous greeting and a beautiful way to invite your guests forward.






What's your dream? Let's have some fun....
Love,

Yellow and Black! Wow!!

Hi!

How funny another yellow posting! But, take a look... the black and yellow are breathtakingly refreshing!!

This is Joe and Stacy Brown's Wedding and Reception. Congratulations you two on your Wedding and new family!!

 This is our black floral organza overlays! Teamed with bright yellow flowers, black candelabras and presto, you have a winner!

 Thank you Flower Allie for this stunning bouquet with ribbon and jeweled stems.

 Here is Stacy getting ready in the Bride's room! It's your room for those last minute touches!

 Black and yellow abound! I found our old black striped Hat Box for the Cards, a black photo of a chandelier, the invitation mounted for the guests to sign, the black scrolled candle and holder, the black book stand and a birdie candelabra all made this table worth stopping at.

 Calla Lilly! They make such perfect boutonnieres! Here's a shot of one of our black candelabras on the table! Stacy and I scoured the thrift and antique stores and antique flea markets to find the candelabras! I wonder what color they will be next?

 In August it's normally really warm! We provide the free standing umbrellas to offer the most comfort for our guests.

 Ah, the Sweetheart table. We used the white candelabra for the Bride and Groom's table. It's complete with a large box of Kleenex!

 The Ceremony with Shepherd hook decoration! I love those chiavari chairs!

 Gorgeous Stacy!

 The girls were a blast! Each of them had a black accent in their hair depending on their  own style. Lovely!

 The men. What can I say? They are all just tooooo cool!

 An up close photo of the guest book table and her invitation! Now, that's how you tie it all together! It started with the photo on the table and blossomed from there!

 A private moment with Joe!

 First look!

 Floral crystal hangers that worked perfectly with the black shepherd's hooks.

 The Ceremony!

 Is this breathtaking or what?! Well done Flower Allie. I just love this photograph. Well done Jeray and Kim Photography too!

 And the whole bridal party... What a wonderful day!!

Special thanks to Flower Allie for the bright and beautiful flowers that popped! Thank you Kim and Jeray Photography, it's always a pleasure working with you.
