Summer nights are made for entertaining don't think?  I love all of the candlelight and those sweet garden chairs, casual linens and the relaxed garden.

This is so perfect!

 

I am sure every bride would say that there are things they would have changed about their wedding.  There are so many ways I would have done things differently!  

I was young and pretty simple at the time...

So here is my now wedding if I was to do it again...

gorgeous hand done invitations are a must and I would love to have a wedding in Paris of course... but maybe some where a little bit more quaint more sheltered out in the French countryside ...

Beautiful places to sit make conversation and relax..

A simply beautiful dress..

 A little color with peonies..

Out door seating with candle light.... a small party for close friends only.. not everyone we have ever met!

And more than anything I would remember to have fun..

 

Sweets for each guest along with beautiful delicious food. Maybe I could convince Eddy Rocq to come to France to cater for me?

It is funny how the time passes without notice some days...  Today is my son's 10th birthday- what an amazing gift to share his sweet heart and mind it has been.  I so look forward to the amazing person he is becoming with each day so tonight we will celebrate with him once again (we like to call them birthday weeks around here) tonight at dinner with family.

Wishing you a wonderful day filled with beautiful images and memories!

Entertaining outside is my favorite with candle light and lighting in the trees.  It is such a fun simple way to extend your home with a long banquet style table and a graphic runner.  

Do you entertain outside?  I would love to hear your secrets to keeping it special and intimate.

This year we have had the chance to have a few gatherings around our table and I cannot wait to have more in the coming years.  I fell for a picture that I found of a table done in white and linen.  This is my loose imitation with my favorite thick linen napkins and some vintage pieces that we picked up this year.  I hope you are looking forward to the new year as much as I am!  

I want to say thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to stop by here!
