Newest Ring Pillow For a Wonderful Bride







I recently had the pleasure of working with a lovely bride named Christine who will be marrying her English fiance Steve in October in California. Christine was a pleasure to work with and i loved collaborating with her. Her wedding colors are ivory and burgundy so I incorporated the burgundy into the flowers and ribbons on her ring pillow. I patterned the bridal gown after Christine's with a lace overlay and a long veil with lace trim. The groom is wearing an ivory tie and vest. Rosie, the couple's chocolate lab, wanted to get into the act so we included her and I tied in a central piano theme with the little piano charm hanging from Rosie
s collar (the bride is a pianist and they are having a piano sit in the middle of their reception so any of the many musical guests can sit down and play at will). The reception site is Spanish meditteranean with lots and lots of flowers so I decided to mimic the ivory stucco arches and add a garland of flowers to the top. Just want to wish Christine and Steve many years of health and happiness and thank them for letting me be a part of this wonderful celebration!
