Recently, Bloomingdale's at Fashion Valley held another one of their fabulous wedding events! Headlining this particular event was Isabelle von Boch of the famed Villeroy & Boch tabletop company. This company is French-German and has been in business for an amazing 260 years.
Isabelle spoke about bone and porcelain chinas and some misconceptions that they are very fragile. Once, she recollected how she was reaching for something in her cabinet and a bowl fell out, hit her tiled kitchen counter (and chipped it), fell to the floor, bounced and was still in tact!
This eighth-generation family member also spoke about differences in Europe where they will have different dish sets for breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea and dessert. Can you even imagine the storage? She offered some great tips for making the most of your set such as buying accent plates in smaller numbers and to change placemats to give your table a different look.

Wayne Foster Entertainment provided the music for the evening. There's Max, from Wayne Foster Entertainment. Whether you have a solo musician or a 10-piece band, Wayne Foster is sure to deliver some great talent!
Sweets were by
Dazzle M Desserts and savory hors d'oeuvres (Wild Mushroom Risotto with Seared Filet pictured above) were by
Dining Details. I learned their food is presented so that everything on the plates are edible, including the flowers.
Dramatic back-clasp necklace shown here was by Pamela Pogue of
Juelerie. Pamela is pictured above wearing one of her own creations.
