For the Love of Flowers: Kristen and Luke, June 2012

There's so much that I can say about Kristen and Luke's day, but I think it's pretty clear from all their pictures just how wonderful they are.  It's always a great feeling when you book a client who you, for lack of a better word, gel with.  Kristen's vision for the day was vintage, eclectic, soft, and romantic, just our style.  I can't take all the credit for how amazing it turned out either.  I loved the beautiful mint green bridesmaids dresses, and all the pieces of china that she collected for the arragements, and for every guests place setting.  Plus the venue is one of our favorites, The Foundation, and the photographers We Are the Parsons captured everything beautifully!  It also doesn't help when the bride is totally gorgeous.  Thanks so much for having us you guys, we loved being part of your day!

For the Love of Flowers: Heather and Mark, June 2012

Heather and Mark are a classic couple.  Heather's vision was a beautiful romantic event, with touches of metallic silver.  The flowers for their day couldn't have come in more perfect, fluffy white hydrangeas, soft ruffled peach garden roses, and those coral peonies?  Amazing (but I can't take any credit for that), and I loved the contrast between the soft brides bouquet, and the bold bridesmaids bouquets.  We created a HUGE statement arrangement for the escort card, definitely our largest to date.  Thank you so much for letting us be part of your day guys, and thanks to C. Lynne Photography for some of their lovely images.

DIY Projects: Thanksgiving Decor

I'm not hosting Thanksgivign this year, but it doesn't mean my mind isn't running rampant with lots of fun ideas for what I would do to decorate our table.  I've been sharing a few of them around the internets.  They're super duper easy (like anyone can do them), and look like you spent hours and hours on them.  It's all about groupings of simple to make items, which is key if you're busy cooking a Thanksgiving feast. Pop on over and check them out! 

Here's the Fall Leaves Vases that I shared over on White Table Style.

 

And the super simple Squash and Taper Candle DIY on Paper Muse Press.  

Hooray for Thanksgiving.  I can't wait to gorge myself on delicious food, and spend lots of time with family and friends!

For the Love of Flowers: Bethany and Kyle, May 2012

Wow, you can really tell how busy of a wedding season we had this year, considering we had so much going on every weekend, and I definitely haven't posted anything since early September when it all got started.  We did our last event of the season on Friday, and I'm excited to have some time off to play catch up.  Bethany and Kyle were a super sweet couple.  They wanted their day to be casual, with lots of wild flowers to match their beautiful venue The Lodge at Ironwoods.  Bethany told me some of her favorite flowers are gerber daisies, and irises, so we made sure to include those in her beautiful bridal bouquet.  For the ceremony we added curly willow, lilac, and other blooms in purple, white, and yellow to our vintage screen.  Thanks guys for letting us be part of your day, and to three three photography for the beautiful pics!
