Today is our 38th. Wedding Anniversary. We got married in Las Vegas, Nevada...yes, there!... in the "Little White Chappel," one Tuesday 25th. of 1975, lol.. I was living in Westwood, LA at the time, with a job in fashion, at Rodeo Drive. Therefore, hubby went there and we made it fast with my room-mate, Cindy Rosen and her boy friend as witnesses. Than we headed to NY to see my parents and finally, got married by the Catholic Church, here in Ecuador. Everything was great, it felt like such an adventure.. you all know how we are when young; but to our surprise, our "adventure" lasted up to now and for ever and I hope for another 37 years if our Lord wants it that way. Thank you so much for coming to wish us happiness and to see the table I made in our honor.
The blue and white tablecloth is Indian and so not to take away from the china I placed a white organza, made in Spain on top of it. The chargers you will see are pewter. I have 12 of them and 12 bread plates to match.
As a centerpiece I used a cloche on top of a pedestal from the same china and with two "love birds," inside a hey-thatch nest. Up front is a small, hot sauce bowl with a cute red hot pepper.
The sherbet bowl on top of the salad plate. The stem ware is French from my Mil.
| The sherbet bowl. This china, as well as mine, has many pieces.. more than 100 pieces. The ones that have followed me know I shared in a post the entire 350 pieces of mine, last month. |
| The dinner plate, with the hand decorated carnations inside it, as well. |
| The place setting. The salad plate, at your upper right.. in the doily pattern as well. This china came with some pieces in mix and match patterns, like the big serving platter and salad plates. |
The under blue and white tablecloth is Indian and it's so pretty. I didn't want the pattern to take away from the dishes, so I chose a Spanish organza, transparent table topper in white too.
| At your left the white napkin ring with a little blue butterfly. |
| Here you have it, our 38th. Anniversary table 2013. I pray to God He grants Alejandro and me, many more happy years together.
