Today’s lovely Inspired Creations Contest idea is perfect for the shabby chic bride! The Nashville team of Cedarwood Weddings and Kristyn Hogan created a warm, cozy atmosphere with a glamorous side using a whitewashed color palette and burlap accents. All of the vintage mismatched candlesticks were thrifted and painted in an antique white to create a sea of white candlelight for the romantic centerpiece and mantel. The floral was kept simple (and budget-friendly!) with a unique baby’s breath arrangement, and the mirrors on the walls accentuate the shimmer and sparkle of the candles and add a pretty, antique feel to the setting. And don’t even get me started on the fabulous cake. So simple and beautiful, it’s one of my favorite cakes yet!

I had to do a double take. I didn’t even recognize the patio for a second. What an awesome transformation!
I’m not a crystal kind of girl but if I showed up and saw all this beauty I would be overjoyed!

Ohhh !!! I love this location is wonderful and very elegant !!! :)
I love how the burlap and bling seem to be on opposite sides of the spectrum, but they come together so well here! Love the pictures!
I like the colors, beige & white. It doesn’t look to frilly, but rather crisp & clean! Great job!

…. amazing. Couldn’t love this more.
Its the perfect combination of a rustic wedding with a romantic twist. I love all the tiny details that bring the whole burlap and bling style together.
It is PERFECT. Just perfect. Cedarwood never fails, I SWEAR IT! Everything they put together is pure magic, so it is no wonder that this design is nothing less than that. What a fabulous new spin on Country Chic. BEAUTIFUL!!
I discover your wonderful blog, which is so inspiring and very “Chic” as we say in France. Thank you for sharing ! Stéphanie

I ADORE contrasting textures like burlap and bling!! Rustic and romantic at its best. Lots of great ideas in this setting!!!
Love it, love it, love it…..love it!
Like the burlap for a little masculine balance. It’s the ideal blend and not too over the top fussy. Yin and Yang. Well done.
Thanks for the design love everyone. Kudos to Kristyn Hogan for the photos.

This table is so gorgeous! I love the candleholders mixed in with the touches of mercury glass and accents of burlap and crystals. Love, love, love!!
Absolutely gorgeous, just like everything the team at Cedarwood does! I saw this in person and it looked just stunning. Romantic and luxurious, but relaxed at the same time. Lovely!
What a fantastic idea! Just what i would have wanted for my wedding!!
Such creativity. It sets the mood for a romantic wedding!
A beautiful setting for any occasion!

I LOVE this set-up. It’s elegant with a country twist and absolutely fabulous. Cedarwood does it again!
Krystal you are so right you know just how to phrase it elegant meets country and its fabulous.
I do not think that the chandelier could get any better. I am thinking of getting something just like it for wedding we set up for.
My Granddaughter wanted me to post a comment for her:
She thinks it must be magic there (Cedarwood) its too pretty to
be real, oh and she said say the cupcakes look yummy.

This is so soft and so beautiful. We love every detail. Cedarwood always wows us!
Love it! Simple, beautiful, country chic at it’s best!
This is just so richly elegant. I love the combination of the crystal and the burlap. If it were done here on Marthas Vineyard we would call this “Vineyard chic”. Beautiful
Simply beautiful! Now I’ve begun putting together my own collection of antique white candlesticks to use at my wedding. I love the cake too, simple but lovely. Thanks for the inspiration!
I really like this wedding theme, so beautiful.
This wedding is so elegant! It is an ideal wedding. This is perfect for a royal wedding theme. Candles are really great accents.
i’ve been looking for a cake table similar to the one pictured above…where can i find it?
Stunning. This is everything a wedding dining table should be. I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t love this.
what is type of flower is the cake topper?
Oh my god! the color scheme for this wedding is so pretty!!! Loved!

This is a classy way to do a winter wonderland theme. I would suggest this to a bride that wants an all white wedding or a winter holiday theme without the red, green, blue, and gold. Thanks you for the pictures. Blogs like yours make it possible for brides to begin the planning process. Thank you for sharing!
Love the pictures. Very classy looking. I’m wondering, does the burlap cause any ‘itching’ or shedding problems? The girl @ our fabric store is allergic to burlap–won’t even cut it due to itchiness. Has that been a problem for anyone??
