Last year, my family vacationed in Portugal and Spain to visit extended family and take pleasure in the culture. Thus this European-Inspired Sweet Treat Dessert Table was motivated by our enjoyment of the delectable desserts we savored and the simple, yet stylish atmosphere we experienced. The special event was a dual baptism for my son and neice, for whom I am honored to be a Godmother for. The neutral color scheme consisted of gold, champagne and white hues; it coordinated well with the venue’s warm yellow tones. And we love the venue: La Fontana’s Restaurant🙂
I come from a family of “foodies,” thus the focal point of the room became the dessert table. Some European-inspired desserts included our family’s favorites: Pasteis de Nata, a Portuguese crème pastry that melts in your mouth, and Mille Figlio, what the Americans know as “The Italian Napoleon.” Also included were French Macarons, Meringue cookies, and Ferrero Roche chocolates. Kid and adult favorites, such as Snickers, chocolate covered Oreos, grapefruit/pineapple gummies, chocolate caramel and pretzels rounded out the display.
Each guest was given a gold tote to take some home as an additional favor.
The beverage table included Grandma’s homemade Sangria, which always proves to be a success, as well as red and white wines imported from France. We love Hand Picked Selections, Inc!
A scroll pattern and a chic cursive font were used for the labels. The flower centerpiece stayed true to the European tablescape simplicity, as they were Pellegrino and wine bottles spray painted gold and champagne showcasing white hydrangeas with baby’s breath. Champagne pintuck runners were used atop the tables.

I love what I do, and do what I love and this was one event that encompassed it all! This Candyland Bat Mitzvah pulled out ALL the bells and whistles; I was honored to be part of it. This is what over 20 feet of candy + desserts look like…

The eye CANDY of the evening came as the guests exited the nightclub and entered the bar that was closed down and solely devoted to the table of goodies. They were greeted by a heavenly table of sweets, designed and executed by CW distinctive DESIGNS. The Candy and Sweet Treat Dessert Table, logo, and displayed artwork coordinated together.
I was so honored to be able to design the labels and graphics for the table myself, as well as provide the ideas for the artwork pieces that were showcased, featuring the guest-of honor.
Every single element of the table was precisely thought through, coordinating with the theme and cohesively bringing the event together.
Some candy included: colorful Skittles, Sour Patch favorites, Pink M&Ms, assorted Whirly Pops, various gummy choices, Red Hots, jelly beans, multi-colored Twizzlers, candy necklaces & buttons, giant gummy bears on sticks, and marshmallow ice cream cones.
Chocolate treats incuded: custom-made molded chocolates with the guest-of-honor’s logo, chocolate covered pretzels, Rice Krispie treats, and Oreos.
Some EXTRA fun features included: pink popcorn, an enormous five-tiered display of pastel-colored cupcakes, cotton candy, a tabletop gumball machine, uniquely-designed sugar cookies, and delectable pastries.
I love that everything was captured in photo by Danny Weiss. (Psssst….check out his wedding and kid photography…UnReAL!!)
This is the inspiration board that I made to help design the table…

Going in the books as one of my favorite weddings of 2011 fell on 9.10.11. What an awesome wedding date for such an extravagant event! This wedding was the start, for what I hope, as a long-lasting collaboration with TROIS EVENTS, Kasal NY Event Planning + MPW Media & Photography + KMG. The candy popped and so did the green embellished details. It was set inside of Martime Parc, a modern venue overlooking the Hudson, offering a perfect view of the September 11th Freedom Tower Memorial and lights.
