Atelier Joya featured on Martha Stewart


Photos by Sabine Scherer


We're super excited to finally get to share photos from a wedding we worked on last September. The wait was well worth it....we are featured on Martha Stewart. Yay!!! It's so much fun to see some of our work featured there.

This was such a great wedding to design. The client really wanted their wedding to feel handmade, crafted and unique. Their color palette was inspired from the golden gate bridge and it's surroundings. The blue of the sky, the teal of the bay and the reddish orange of the bridge. We used a combination of zinnias, dahlias, eucalyptus, olive, and celosia for all of the florals. Vintage mason jars wrapped in yarn, sea glass ball jars, vintage metal tins and red wooden buckets were all incorporated. Custom burlap linens bordered with poppy red fabric and tied with french ribbon adorned the pie table, ceramic pie stands in the perfect red displayed berry pies, and vintage grainsack linens served as coffee table runners. Red & white striped straws and craft paper placemats made the tablescape playful and napkins tied with detailed red & white striped twine were a perfect touch.

Vintage Escort Card Display



             photos by Anna Kuperberg http://kuperberg.com/

This was one of our favorite escort card displays to design. Our client wanted a vintage, french feeling for her wedding. Our inspiration was the writing seen frequently on the windows in the cafes of Paris. We knew we wanted to use window panes and translate this design into the display.  After much hunting for the perfect windows, we found these at the flea market. Yay!!! Now you can see the end results. The client was super happy and guests were so excited to find their name on the display. These windows now reside in the the client's home. The perfect memory.
