Please welcome my friend Erica Taylor of Tinsel & Twine as she shares with us the most exquisite fall brunch scene. The styling and photography is so fresh and captivating, don't you think??
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
For this photoshoot, we planned to create two vignettes that reflected the warm tones of Fall, but without using the traditional combination of burnt reds, oranges, and browns. Instead, we picked a more modern palette of charcoal and cream accented with glints of gold.
Our first set-up is a very sweet breakfast in bed. Imagine waking up on a gloriously lazy Sunday morning. And although the weather is beginning to turn chilly, the sun is shining and you've got your love to keep you warm. That, and a sweet surprise from your Honey: pumpkin spiced donuts, fresh flowers, and a little love note! What could be cozier?
The second scene is a table set for a spiced cider and donut brunch with your closest friends. Circular design elements are carried through a collection of dotted vases, speckled menus, a dramatic gilded hanging wreath of hand-crafted paper petals, a cylindrical cakestand, and -- of course -- carefully architected pyramids of donuts and pastry puffs. So many details to take in make this a truly delicious feast for friends!

ReplyDeleteThe table set for brunch is such a classic, and definitely my favorite. So many great textures going on too.
ReplyDeleteThe hanging wreath is insane! So amazing! Bizarre question -- can you tell me where the tray came from? I'm kind of obsessing over it.
ReplyDeleteLove the muted neutrals on the white backdrop with splashes of gold, so perfect! This would be an absolute dream!
ReplyDeleteHolyy moly I love this so much! I NEED to serve some similar to someone asap! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I especially love the breakfast in bed...that looks like the perfect way to start the day! Xo, Katie
ReplyDeleteLove the color palette and who wouldn't want to have a delicious doughnut in bed :)

ReplyDeleteDOUGHNUT TREE!! I want it! I want this whole set up actually. Beautiful tones and layout. Just lovely. And the doughnut tree, I'm serious.
ReplyDeleteI want an invite to this brunch! It seems like whites + height = swank and fun presentation. The flowers, duvet and placement look wonderfully soft and do give some inviting textures. Thanks for sharing this.
