Sweet 5 Year Anniversary Tablescape

This weekend Floyd and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary.  I can hardly believe it’s been 5 whole years since we said our vows on a Jamaican cliff (see our wedding details here).  Time truly does fly when you are having a blast!  In addition to our date night, I created a little special space for us to celebrate.  Somehow setting up a romantic table setting for us away from our typical kitchen table made it that much more special.

I found these carnations at Fresh Market for only $5! Is it just me or does their deep rich color help set a romantic tone?

I’m also loving these Pheasant placemats, courtesy of Citta Design.  The fun pattern and colors are so versatile and can work in both dressier and casual table settings.

A special treat adorns each place setting. Yum!

A photo of the big day sparks a walk down memory lane.

So, have you ever taken an unexpected turn and set up a dining space in a totally different room? What do you think of this setting?Any thoughts on how I can take it to the next level?
