THE RIVER CAFE



in the madness that was october i did a wedding along the east river with a grand view of new york city as the backdrop. it was unseasonably warm that day and an abundance of sunshine filtered through the floor to ceiling windows. this midday glow was still edging it's way toward the center of the room, so for the time being it felt like we worked in the shadow of a magical forest. sunday brunch was in full swing and lots of people milling about on the pier in shorts and tees eating ice cream and from the river's edge snapping gotham city frame by frame. with a small window to do our thing, we gingerly but stealthly placed arrangements about the room, accepted a complimentary glass of bubbly, gathered every last bit of fluffe ? for recycling and were on our merry way in one hour flat.

looking back, it was a beautiful day and the flowers, well, have a looksy.




























the colors looks so much brighter in their raw format. someday i'll figure out how
to get it right on the blog. you'd think a veteran designer would have the retouching bit down by now.

anyway, i digress.

on another note // the view out my window is all doom and gloom today so i'm singing along to something a bit more merry {yes i do like xmas tunes} and holiday window shopping online {well torturing myself really} at SA and EB. i've hidden my wallet in case i get any crazy ideas.

Those are just gorgeous! You are so lucky to be able to get anemones and dahlias at the same time! That would be unheard of here in the uk. Beautiful work xx
