Abigail Tracy & Carl Tuke – May 14, 2011

Abby and Beau are coordinating several patterns to bring color and balance to their table setting. They have chosen:

12 dinner plates, Anna Weatherley "Mint Green"
12 dinner plates, Anna Weatherley "Powder Blue"
12 bread & butter plates, Anna Weatherly
"Powder Blue"
12 dessert plates, Mottahedeh "Tobacco Leaf"
12 rim soup bowls, Mottahedeh "Tobacco Leaf"
12 teacup/saucers, Anna Weatherly "Simply Anna"

All the pieces share a slight undulating border shape, and the soft colors of the dinner plates are the perfect foil for the strength of pattern and color in the dessert plates as well as the freshness of the white soup bowls with that fine line of blue and gold. Shown with these pieces are water tumblers of cobalt blue that can be used either at the bar or as a glass for sparkling water accompanied by a wine goblet at the dinner table. The champagne flutes are a fun addition with the circles of colors echoed in the china.

Throughout the registry the bride and groom have asked for items with seashore motifs. Included in these selections are the coasters pictured above with different sea creatures on the coasters; a mid-20th century Carlton Ware bowl supported by three red lobsters as well as a hand embroidered, in France, towels for the powder room with a motif of fish and coral.

On the registry are included leaf dishes of Mottahedeh "Tobacco Leaf", fan-shaped dishes from Anna Weatherly, and two white porcelain stars from Raynaud as well as other accessories in these patterns to enhance Abby and Beau's entertaining style. In addition, they have chosen 12 hand embroidered linen place mats with different colored tulips.

There are several pieces from which to choose of Simon Pearce glass. The large Hartland hurricane and the 10" Revere bowl are pictured above. Also photographed is a wonderful decoupage waste basket with Audubon birds. Abby and Beau have asked for a large decoupage serving tray in addition (not pictured).

There are many other accessories, both casual and elegant from which to choose.
