Real Weddings: Jennifer & Chase 06.20.09

Jennifer & Chase were married last Spring at Sodo Park by Herban Feast, a color palette of champagne and sage greens this wedding was nothing but an elegant affair.

Centerpieces were designed with Vendalla champagne colored Roses, White Hydrangeas, Anabelle Sage Green Hydrangeas and Pittosporum and Plumosa Greenery. The tables lit with candlelight for a glow of ambiance.

Bouquets for the Bridesmaids were a simple, but elegant bundle of Champagne pink Mini Calla Lilies tied with taupe satin.

The Bride carried a bouquet of Vendella Roses, Green Tea Roses and White Roses with Crystal Accents among the blooms.

The church was decorated with Cream Carnation Pomander Balls hanging by taupe satin ribbon on every other pew. A sprinkling of Rose petals on the aisle runner finished the look.





Thank you to Sean Hoyt Photography for the beautiful images and Jen Taylor of Taylor'd Events by Jen for coordinating and designing a fabulous wedding.

Herbal Infusions

I just wanted to share this wonderful bouquet I created for Shanda of Pixel Soup Creative, a company who specializes in boutique invitations, event logos and web design. I love all the herbal elements we incorporated. Not only did it look fantastic it smelled delightful.

We combined Pale Pink Garden Roses, Sage, Snowberries, Brazillia, Amaranthus, Dusty Miller and Fiddleheads to create a garden inspired, natural and herbal bouquet to fit her style.

Thanks to Lucas Mobley Photography for contributing the photo.

Real Weddings: 07.03.09 Jeremy + Ophelia

Jeremy and Ophelia were married at the beautiful Sanders Mansion in Auburn. Their color palette was a beautiful combination of Eggplant Purple, Coral, Lime Green and Saphire Blue. The colors blended really popped and looked amazing. Enjoy!

Her bouquet was a combination of Purple Lisianthus, White and Green Hydrangea, Stephanotis, Delphinium Buds, Lime and Purple Dendrobium Orchids and Salmon Hypericum Berry.

The Bridesmaids bouquets looked stunning against their purple dresses with a combination of Purple Lisianthus, Orange Roses, Salmon Hypericum Berry and Lime Green Mini Cymbidium Orchids.

The Pomanders and shepherd hooks that lined the aisleway were adorable. They hung from rich purple satin and were created with a combination of Purple Carnations, Kermit Mums, Green and Salmon Hypericum Berry. The aisle was lined with Coral Rose Petals to really make it pop.

The Centerpieces were designed with Manzanita Branches blooming with Green Dendrobium Orchids with Purple throats and Delphinium Blooms, accented with hanging votive candles and crystals. The vases were filled with crystal gel to add that extra sparkle.

The cake was accented with Green Hydrangeas.

Thank you to Kate McElwee Photography for all the wonderful photos!

Real Weddings: Fernanda & Rusty 8.30.09

Fernanda & Rusty were married at Sodo Park by Herban Feast on 08.30.09. I love the vibrant color palette of Orange, Pinks and Lime Greens.

The Bride's bouquet was made up of Orange and Pink Dahlias, Orange Mokara Orchids and Rust colored Mini Calla Lilies.

An accent of Pink and Orange on the beautful Wooden Arch provided by the venue.

The aisle pieces were simple, but vibrant arrangements of Roses, Dahlias, Hypericum Berry and Bells of Ireland. They transfered to be centerpieces after the ceremony finished.

Love this space, such a fantastic venue for an event and the staff is wonderful to work with!

Simple Hypericum Berry boutonniere

One of three centerpieces we created for the tables at the Palace Ballroom. Love the crisp lime green and white with limes creating a fun pattern inside the vases.

Real Weddings: Sabra & Rodney 5.23.09

Sabra & Rodney were married at The Columbia Tower Club. Beautiful view from the 75th Floor and such a clear day.

We created arrangments of black, green and white to compliment the black tablecloths. Each centerpiece with created in a pave style with Mini Gerber Daisies, Spider Mums, Buttom Mums, Poppy Pods, Mini Calla lilies, Hydrangea and accents of Mint sprigs.

Half of her centerpieces doubled as Aisle Decor for the Wedding Ceremony. These glass cylinder vases with black rocks stabalized branches of Curly Willow with "blooming" white Dendrobium Orchids. Simple and Chic!

I'm always a fan of using as much as possible for "double duty" in your wedding decor. Get the most bang for your buck.

We created a unique Alter Tablescape for the Ceremony. A tiered scape of big beautiful Hydrangeas, simple and stylish Calla Lilies and blooming with White Dendrobium Orchids are bundles of Curly Willow. This created a delicate and unique back drop for the Bride and Groom to stand near without blocking the beautiful view.

Melissa of Chic Celebrations did the sheer white drapery for us. What a soft and elegant touch to the Altar.

Stay tuned for photos of the Bridal and Bridesmaids bouquets.
