We were beyond thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Pottery Barn for our Spring Wedding Inspiration Shoot! The decor pieces we chose from them added the perfect details and really made the shoot spectacular! The colorful mum garden napkin linens and pillows was our inspiration behind the shoot and played a big part in adding to the romantic and fresh theme we wanted to portray.
Details really go a long way and set the mood for your event! We chose the Pottery Barn Emma dinner and salad plates because of the doted detail that coordinated with the brides dress and pearls. The bronze butterfly napkin rings, birds nest chargers, and robin eggs brought in a slight touch of whimsical romance that is a must for any spring garden wedding! No place setting would be complete without antique-silver flatware. I’m completely obsessed with the heirloom style engraved words on each of these flatware pieces! This makes for a charming detail your guests can enjoy while eating dinner and toasting to your marriage!
If you are having a cocktail hour or a lounge area for your guest, you should think about sprucing things up a bit with detailed pillows that match your wedding color and theme. This is a great way to create an inviting area for your guests to enjoy and relax in style! You can easily create a similar look by adding any of these stunning decor items from Pottery Barn to your event design!

POTTERY BARN WEDDING REGISTRY Q&A:
1. What makes Pottery Barn’s registry processes different from other stores?
A couple can create a wedding registry in store or online; and if they want, they can schedule an appointment with an in store Registry Specialist to help make sure they have everything they’ll need to start their new home. We often hear from couples that they like the range of quality items at varying price points at Pottery Barn for their registry. If guests want to shop in store, they have the option of purchasing gifts in sets or as individual pieces to fit their budgets – and we will gift wrap it for free too!
2. Do brides receive any type of discount on registry items still remaining on their list after the wedding?
Yes, our registry program features a 10% completion discount for 6 months after the event on any remaining items, including furniture and special orders.
3. Do you have local specialists that can help assist couples to set up their registry list and make sure they have everything they need?
Yes, we offer a registry packet full of suggestions, and we also have in store Registry Specialists to help answer any questions couples might have while registering.
4. How does the thank you note manager work?
This is a great feature of our gift registry program. The thank you note manager helps keep track of thank-you notes with an online list of all the gifts received with the names and addresses of gift-givers. It’s also really helpful in case a couple receives a gift without a card!
5. What are some of the must have items the brides are currently loving from Pottery Barn?
Couples cannot get enough of our outdoor entertaining items. Couples usually register for entertaining, table top, bedding, and bath items, and it is also fun to add in some seasonal items as well to round out a registry.
6. If a couple registers for an item that is starting to run low how will they know?
Our Registry Specialists can help by tracking any seasonal items that are on the registry, and we encourage couples to update their registry about 3 weeks before the big day so there are plenty of options for their guests to choose from.

The wooden place mats make my heart flutter. They give a perfect organic feel. I of course love the vases, the pale aqua contrasted against pink pastel and coral flowers is exactly what I want to incorporate in the centerpieces for our wedding.

I really love the pillows, who knew that chairs could “pop” like that. The napkins are equally as attractive. The beautiful vase’s would be a wonderful treat.
Those napkins are just divine! Although those blue and orange vases are beautiful… The perfect amount of color without being gaudy.
Love Pottery Barn…the details were absolutely amazing from this shoot and I adore the bird and butterfly touches. The colors and textures are perfect for the look and style and the vases are the most beautiful color:)
I adore this whole theme! It is exactly what I’ve always envisioned for my own reception, but could never quite find the right way to make it all work. It is hard to choose a favorite item from the shoot, but I would have to say I love the vases and pitchers done up with the floral arrangements and beautiful eggs. GORGEOUS!!
I love the Silverware that has the names on them!
My favorite things are the rustic, wooden table mats underneath the plates. Gives it a rugged/outdoors look!
I LOVE Pottery Barn!! If I had to pick my favorite thing….it would be the detailing in the pillows. All the little details really make the wedding unique and special!
I like the use of the colored eggs inside the glass pitchers. Very cool!
The blue vases are gorgeous, specially the wider one. I also love the wooden place mats! Beautiful post!
I completely love everything. And I hope I win.

Those vases are the exact color that my sister is having at her wedding in June and they would be just so amazing. I would love to win them for her!
I have been eyeing up the engraved silverware for a couple of catalogs now. I also love the white plates and the color of the vases!

I love the cargers and the silverware! It gives such a rustic but classic “tea time” look to the table setting.
I love the white table runner! It’s such a fresh, crsip-looking piece. I actually just ordered it and can’t wait for it to arrive.
The color scheme here is perfect! The creamy Emma dinnerware, the blue in the vases and robin eggs, the wood table and twiggy chargers are just beautiful. Then the butterfly embroidered pillow picks up all the hues, too! I couldn’t choose one favorite.
Beautiful design and lovely products.
Pottery Barn has so many great items! I am in love with that store! Everything was so well put together for your shoot that it is so hard to pick just one item! We are planning a springtime wedding for next year and I think someone else said this, but this is EXACTLY how I want it to look! It’s just wonderful. My favorite thing would have to be the bird nest chargers. They are just so original! When you think of spring, you think of birds and nests naturally. These pop too with the bright napkins and flowers. Such a visual treat! These beautiful photos capture on film the epitomy of spring. This post is great even if you are not planning a wedding!
SO lovely! The vases are such a pretty color! They could accent just about anything. Cute post! I like the baskets for the plates.
I love the vases because they perfectly match my porcelain blue bedding from Pottery Barn. Fresh flowers in our master bedroom would look so pretty in these vases!
I’m in love with the robins egg blue vases! It’s my favorite color lately! I’m painting parts of my kitchen it..and they’d be so cute in my wedding on May 13th.
Love the chargers; the elegance of the plates set them off beautifully. The robin’s eggs in the pitcher is also a very nice touch………….rustic country elegance. Pottery Barn has been my design inspiration for years!
The blue vases are lovely! Especially if combined with pink-ish colors. Many people are not brave enough to use the mix of these two but it can be absolutely stunning – as we can see in the pics, anyway. Oh, and the napkins look nice too, very fresh but festive at the same time.
That cake stand from the Pottery Barn is exactly the kind I’ve been looking for! I went on their site to buy it and also those gorgeous vases while I was at it, but I couldn’t quite find the vases on their site. I also love the robin’s eggs in the pitcher. I feel like copying everything on this site!
I loved the blue vases and the gorgeous flower colors together. I have two daughters getting married this summer and one of them has picked this blue as one of her colors. The eggs in the pitcher was really creative and darling. I love this blog. Kudos to all of you who work so hard to put it together. The photos make you want to step right into the pictures. The photographer really did an excellent job. Pottery Barn knows the way to a woman’s heart, that’s for sure.
