Grit + Gold designs an UP themed table for NACE DFW

Our table design begins with adventure. Our inspiration comes from the endearing movie, UP, but really tries to capture the loving nature in all children. We wanted to create a design that appealed to pint size adventurers but was still classic enough to entice those adults that realize you are never too old to have fun. We took our color yellow and added a variety of hues to create depth to the palette, and added a splash of gingham! Our hope is that children would immediately find a connection with the table, sit down and become a part of the script, and create their own adventure in the midst of the story.

All year we design weddings, engagements, showers and parties. It’s so nice and refreshing to get our hands on something that’s a little different and just simply put… FUN! We love kids, we love charities and we love our UP themed table for this year’s NACE DFW fundraiser benefiting Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. We want to thank you to the lovely sponsors who helped bring our vision together. A big thank you to the Mamones for the photos!

Riley + Bryant’s sweet and Southern wedding

So excited to peek a little of this wedding! The ceremony was held at the Founders Chapel at White’s Chapel UMC with reception following at Los Portales, Joe T Garcia’s in Fort Worth. The couple were from North Carolina and my team had only met the bride once before the big day, so it was imperative to work hard to understand their desired vision.  The bride’s mother, Kelly, works at  Anthropologie and so many of the details were Anthro/BHLDN items. SWOON! Kelly designed most of the event along with help from our team and knew exactly the feel she wanted set. The palette was lovely of mint, robins egg blue, pale peaches, coral, orange, and pinks. Adorable details like a wishing well guestbook alternative, peach stand wedding favors, skeleton key escort tags, and tablescapes of clustered Anthropologie bottles with blooms, gold antlers and fabulous vintage books. This is a designers DREAM detailed wedding. Now to the good stuff! More photos coming soon!
