A beautifully curated table is like a symphony, where every element plays its part in creating an unforgettable setting for your celebration.

We love to embrace the lightest or deepest tones in your palette, using contrast to create striking harmony.

Texture is at the heart of a truly captivating tablescape—it comes to life through the thoughtful layering of fabrics, ceramics, and stationery.

These elements are further enhanced by the gentle glow of candlelight, with ceramics lovingly crafted in-house by The Art and Romance.

Beautiful memories from S & M’s elegant winter wedding at Castlemartyr Resort.

Winter weddings offer a unique and enchanting atmosphere that can create a truly memorable experience. The crisp, cool air, the soft glow of twinkling lights, the warmth of a crackling fireplace, and the tantalising aroma of winter-inspired cuisine combine to create a romantic and intimate atmosphere, while leaving room for creativity and personalisation.

A thoughtfully curated tablescape blending design elements - setting the stage for an unforgettable celebration.
Your table linens form the foundation. I often choose either the lightest or darkest hue for the tablecloth, creating contrast with other elements in your palette to make everything stand out. Texture plays a key role in table design and can be introduced through a variety of fabrics, patterns, and layered plates, and further enhanced by the subtle shimmer of different glassware.
While I craft a visually stunning wedding design, our real focus is on creating an atmosphere that leaves a lasting emotional impression on you and your guests. I go beyond aesthetics to stimulate all the senses—what you hear, see, smell, touch, and taste is at the heart of everything.

E & C

A little over two years ago we created some magic and celebrated love at a gorgeous little Italian Restaurant in Galway!

“We are from the United States and were looking for help creating a vision for our destination wedding in Galway, Ireland, so we reached out to Gabi. She immediately demonstrated to us her love for her craft and her passion for design as well as her dedication to her clients. Through the entire process of planning our wedding, to creating a vision board and then executing on the actual day of our wedding, Gabi and her team blew us away.

The day of the wedding, when we walked into the venue and saw the transformation that Gabi and her team made to our venue, we were floored. The flower arrangements, the candles, the tablescapes, custom stationary, custom napkins, custom wax seals, the bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets and boutonniere were all PERFECT. Gabi even took her own creative liberty with our wedding cake to ensure that it fit the theme by adding gorgeous flowers to it. No detail went unnoticed. Our guests stood in amazement at the way Gabi transformed an Italian restaurant into a floral oasis.

Without Gabi and her team, our wedding would not have been anywhere near as beautiful as it was. What she created took an eye for design, skillful ex*****on and unmatched attention to detail. Pairing this with her charming personality and her hard work ethic, working with Gabi was a privilege. It is evident through everything that Gabi does, that she genuinely loves what she does.”

Thank you E & C for your beautiful words and for letting us be part of your special day! We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness 🤍

WORKSHOP IRELAND 2022 An amazing and fun interview, thank you very much for the opportunity to chat about what I do, my background and my sources of inspiration. I am thrilled to be a part of the amazing @boldandbrazenworkshop with such talented creatives in the wedding industry. Emma from @theboldamericana is such a wonderful person and talented photographer. I met her a year ago and I clicked right away with this adorable human. I got an opportunity to meet and chat with Natalie @ncliffo today too, such a lovely soul. I absolutely love the creative process, to work on design boards and revise until everyone is ecstatic. Can’t wait to collaborate with all the creatives at the workshop, with a team like this I am sure it will be an incredible experience. #weddingplanner #weddingstylist #weddingworkshop #irelandwedding #ireland #irelandelopement
