Today I’m showing you my civil ceremony, which took place at the end of 2011 in Sao Paulo, at the Rosmarino restaurant… not only was the menu delicious, the ambiance was pure charm!
The choice was perfect for the occasion!
Complete opposite of the wedding celebration in Las Vegas, this ceremony was romantic, almost entirely lit by candles.
For the informal dinner, I prepared a long table (Godfather style… like I call it 
) with pieces from my mother’s collection.
Crochet towels from Mrs Monica’s (my mother) great grandmother.
Antique china for the flower arrangements…
… and some treats I found in her home.
Napkin holders, each in a different model, and the place holders were lovely!
The color chosen were pale pink, light pink, a bit of bordeaux…
and a touch of petrol blue in the spiked glasses.
The dessert table was beautiful!
The sweets from Mariza Doces were delicious.
The cake was very delicate, simply with two doves…
In fact… this walnut cake with cream from Rosmarino is to die for!!!
For the coffee table, I chose several different types of cups from D. Filipa.
Love tea had to be there…
And the favours for the guests to take at the end!
Sachets with dry rose petals, macarons and wonderful dragee almonds from Conti!
Our dear Silvana Garzaro got everything with lots of tenderness!!!
