Bliss in Bloom

This wedding was based on several different shades of blue...we used Cobalt, Teal and a soft blue to add more interest. Because there were 15 tables we decided to keep each centerpiece simple, but there was a lot of detail to each item, such as the ribbon embellishment, crystals and submerged flowers. I have to say, this one was pretty labor intensive just because we had a lot of different elements, but it turned out really nice and I hope it was everything Shelby was looking for...Congratulations Shelby!

Fosberg - Roberts Wedding May 8th, 2010

For this wedding, the bride wanted to match as closely as possible the flowers to her "Gauva" colored bridesmaids dresses. I have to say, it's never easy getting an exact match when you are doing a destination wedding unless the bride actually sends a swatch of the color she is looking for, and for this wedding I did not have a swatch. For me I got a bit stressed out wondering if my interpretation of Guava was veering more towards the Coral color, but I couldn't help but love how all the Roses, Anthuriums and even the ribbon I selected matched each other so well! For the roses I selected Big Fun and I have to say, they were stunning! Such a beautiful color and this rose opens up so big which is a really nice feature in a bouquet. For accents I added the Mojolika spray roses, which is my favorite,as well as soft baby pink spray roses, calla lilies and orchids.

After freaking out a little wondering whether I selected the right shade of Guava, I happened to see the flower girl walk by in her dress and the color matched perfectly! I could not have been more elated! The wedding was lovely and the flowers were a hit...ahhhhhh yay!

Amanda's pink wedding April 10th, 2010

The Bride's bouquet was such a fun bouquet to make! Amanda expressed to me that she loves large bouquets, which I assured her was not a problem for me! If anything I am guilty of making them too big! But once I get going, it's hard to stop!

I loved the pink on pink for this wedding, and we decided to use the bouquets as centerpieces for the reception, which looked so lovely in the ballroom. I also used little clear glass milk jars with pink Ranunculus and Snap Dragons.

Congratulations Amanda!
