Love= Pistachio green + gold

The design for this engagement dinner party was inspired by a beautiful little box of Laduree macaroons I received as a gift from my sister on her trip to Paris. Long after the macaroons were gone, the gorgeous gift box they came in still lay on a shelf in my bedroom. I was looking for inspiration for the engagement party, when I spotted the box and decided on pistachio green and gold as the colours for the deco. 
Soft, romantic and elegant. 
Take a look...


We heart Laduree.


The inspiration!







We used solid gold charger plates and alternated it with gold doilies. We placed these to the right of the dinner plate instead of hiding it directly underneath.










The napkin rings were handmade using metallic gold paper doilies. How beaut are they?



Cut-out pistachio green hearts were tied with gold satin ribbon to the fluted glasses.













Pistachio green cake pops with a sprinkle of gold leaf.


A vanilla ruffle cake with the cutest mini paper doilie bunting!


Chocolate strawberry spoons.


Pistachio macaroons were a must! Lightly dusted with gold.








Cashew & Coconut homemade ice cream in an ice bucket to match the deco colours.We think of it all!
