GoreDean Spring Bridal Event Baltimore
March 25, 2010
TABLES WERE SET….with JulisKa, Hermes, Poc A Poc, Vietri, Kim Seybert, and Michael Wainwright
Linens by Juliska , Anichini and Kim Seybert, and Deborah Rhodes
Flatware: By Match, Juliska, and Alain St Jonais
Reception Stations:
The Brownie Shoppe did a mothwatering display of treats. Homemade caramels, Lemon bars, Brownies to die for as well as a Krispie Treat with white chocolate and cranberries that was so delicios we carry it in our stores now- along with the brownies.
Individually wrapped candies, cakes and marshmallows were a huge hit- with the star of the show being the raspberry puree infused marshmallow. It truly went over the bend into gourmet world.
Wedding Invitations from Dempsey and Carroll were on display. Ready to Write (fill it in) or Custom. There was plenty to choose from and it is always nice that a Company like Dempsey and Carroll is in charge so that there are no mistakes.
A Huge Spring Bouquet of flowers from Simply Beautiful Flowers. Along with this sweet arrangement which can go happily from the table to the bridal party or friend os family after the reception.
PREMIERE BRIDE magazines were avaialble in all The Bride’s Gift Bags at the Event
Full of great information- especiallt where to shop for the right dress…
The Floral Studio outdid themelves with this spectacular arrangement -perched atop a vase full of coffee beans. It was lush and formal and looked terrific- actually it still does. This is a great arrangement to last through a wedding weekend.
This creation also from The Floral Studio was so tall that i could not even get a great picture – but it was something else- resting on a tall crystal pillar and filled with feathers and Spring flowers. This could also be a tremendous centerpiece for tables of 10 at a Gala. Tall enough to make the room sing.
More from The Brownie Shoppe
This photo of a photo doesn’t do wedding photographer Russell Hirshon any credit but i think it shows the ease in which he photographs weddings and events.
He makes these bridesmaids and friends look as though they stepped right out of the pages of Town and Country or Vanity Fair.
Russell has a great reputation in Washington DC for his event work and he brings an ease to wedding photography that results in photos that you want to keep out for years.
Last but not least, Patisserie Poupon did a smashing job in the Reception Station. Their small elegant pastries were incredible. Towers of these treats at a reception would be appreciated and remembered for years. Their wedding cakes are refined and delicious and are featured on this site under The Cake.
Thanks to THE WINE SOURCE for the Tasting – which happened to be my Favorite.

Red - Red flowers symbolize romantic love. Not just that — red roses are about passion, desire, and even eroticism.
Dark Red – A deeper red flower symbolizes a deeper kind of love. These are the flowers you send to your wife of 20 years. Dark red flowers convey a message of strong true love. They also symbolize beauty and perfection .
White - The first association with anything white — dresses, flowers, diamonds, snow — is purity. In flowers, white also symbolizes family, so they’re a good color to send a family member or close friend. Combine them with red and you’ve got a bouquet symbolizing a loving bond. This Valentine’s Day, is marriage on your mind?
Green - You know what they say about green m&m’s, don’t you? It fits, then, that green flowers are the color of fertility. Whether you want to start trying to expand your family, or you’ve been waiting to share big news with someone, green flowers are a good icebreaker.
Pink - Girls, don’t send pink flowers to your boyfriend — this is just emasculating. But pink is a great color to send a lady! Pink flowers signify femininity, sweetness, and charm. A pink flower says “You’re a doll!” Put pink and white roses together and the bouquet will scream “wedding!” even though neither color on its own is traditionally a romantic flower.
Peach - Soft oranges and pinks are warm colors, so peach flowers say to someone “I’m so comfortable with you.” They signify appreciation, and sometimes gratitude. It’s a way of telling someone their kindness does not go unnoticed.
Orange - This strong color symbolizes fascination, and maybe a hint of mischief. Orange roses are the perfect gift from a secret admirer, but be prepared to reveal yourself soon. Having a secret admirer is fun for a while, but then it drives a person crazy! Maybe your orange flowers could be the start of a new relationship…
Lavender - Purple is the color of nobility, so when you send your lover purple flowers, you are showing them that you put them on a pedestal. This unique color is also a symbol of trust — always an important component of any loving relationship.
Blue - Blue flowers are all about peace. We all want passion in a relationship, but calm is important, too. Blue skies, blue ocean, blue flowers — they all mean tranquility. Blue flowers can tell someone you trust them, you love them, and you want to be like this forever. Not necessarily a color associated with romance, but a romantic message indeed.
