romantic bouquets
i am clearly in love with contemporary design — fresh ideas, clean lines, bold colors. that said, there is something about a classic, perfectly romantic bouquet of flowers that just melts me.
just two of my favorite finds for this week. :o)

an eco-chic honeymoon • gaia hotel & reserve • costa rica
my love of this industry has so much to do with my own glorious wedding experience, and my unforgettable honeymoon had a lot to do with it.
we chose costa rica as our exotic destination, both for the beauty of the country, the exceptional food, and the gaia hotel & reserve — an eco-friendly resort that boasts gorgeous ocean views and its own rainforest.
the suites are lush, modern, and equipped with every possible amenity. the spa is a luxurious sanctuary into which you could literally lose yourself. and the on-site restaurant, la luna, features fresh, fabulous local and international cuisine. we never wanted to leave.

all about orange

using the actual fruit is not only organic and elegant, but unexpected here, and the juxtaposition of the round fruit and square plates is a wonderful mix.
the best part? citrus greens and delicate branches give the bountiful fruit an artistic aesthetic that is light, windswept, and truly uncommon. it's pure sophistication.
