My Simply Southern Summer

As we roll into fall and people's attention turns to football, pumpkins, and Halloween, I wanted to take a moment to recap some of the exciting parts of Summer 2013. Hopefully, you attended the 2nd annual Pew Decorating Competition which was at Vulcan Park.  This is an amazing setting for any event and this one, put on by P.E.W.S., was no exception! 

Several of Birmingham's prestigious wedding professionals showed up with their A-game to embellish a pew in one of four categories: Organics Only, Luxe, Patterns & Pantones and Simply Southern.

We partnered with Cameo Vintage Rentals to create a 1920s-inspired vignette in the Simply Southern category. We wanted to focus on pastel pinks and greens, pearls (a Southern staple) and silver. We accomplished our winning design with gorgeous metallic vintage suitcases, silver plated tiered trays and candelabras and dainty details like rhinestone buckles and vintage gloves and hand mirrors. 

One of the most exciting parts of the competition is that we won! We were awarded the top spot in our category, as well as the Brides Choice award, which is just such a blessing and an honor to us. 

Liz and I are honored to get to work together to make bride's dreams come true. Please take time to visit our website for more information, including a portfolio of our designs, at cecedesignsllc.com.
