A couple weeks ago we collaborated with Janie of The Bride’s Cafe and Janie Medley Floral, as well as Lynn of Sunshowers and Rainshine to create two tablescapes inspired by the French countryside. This first tablescape has more antique elements, including china bowls and plates, teacups, and teapots. Janie did the GORGEOUS floral arrangements, including dahlias, peach garden roses, parrot tulips, dusty miller, scabiosa pods and ornamental green cabbages to compliment the soft color palette of the china. Kurt made the Croquembouche and the Tarte au Citron (yes, I’m marrying a personal chef!), which looked absolutely divine! And of course, our AMAZING stylist, Lynn made the entire table look magical. You can view Janie’s feature here at The Bride’s Cafe![]()

Lynn made these cute little signs herself and found the frames from an antique store





(please excuse the misspelling of “Tarte au Citron”….whoopsies!)
















This next tablescape will surely make you hungry, with so many delicious cheeses and rustic fruits! Janie arranged dahlias, billy balls, blackberries, bupleurum, and scabiosa in vintage glass bottles and lined the burlap with amaranthus. The cheese was collected from a local farmers market (all the cheese was made in VA!) and we found some figs and pears to accent the table and Kurt made the bread
Lynn tied everything together, incorporating pewter plates, twine, cloche, cutting boards, and Laguiole knives. Succulents were scattered throughout the table.





















You can view the French country tablescape feature on Snippet and Ink today!! Thanks so much to Janie + Lynn for your amazing talents!!! XOXO
