Feature Me Friday- VET

Last fall, I had the opportunity to meet with the awesome Vanessa Gilbreath! She helped with the styled shoot I planned. Her contribution to the shoot was her awesome tea cups and place settings! These place settings added so much to the shoot and really brought the tables together! We couldn’t have done it without her!

Vanessa is originally from England and has used her heritage to create an amazing business here in the states! Vanessa provides such a cool and unique service for brides! She provides mismatched English fine china for table settings at wedding receptions, bridal luncheons, wedding showers, and more! I love this concept and think it is so cool to see the awesome arrangements she creates using the fine china! Her business is the only one in Atlanta like it, so make sure to contact her if you love this idea of the fine china! I just LOVE everything about her business!

Thanks for working with me, Vanessa! I can’t wait to make it happen again!
