With Bridal Market in full swing, it seems that the New York Magazine Weddings Event was so long ago {it wasn't}. In fact, in Friday's event recap, I mentioned this post, showcasing some some fab Spring tablescape trends from the city's top designers. The photos are just too pretty to pass up.... and they share some gorgeous concurrent themes.
