Wild for Earth Tones

Bari & Jimmy were your atypical rocker+treehugging couple which I of course loved. The earthy browns and greens stand out so well with depth against the creamy textural whites..

Bride & Bridesmaids Bouquets of antique hydrangea, fiddle head ferns unfurled, callas, millet, berzilia, scented geranium, scabiosa pods, cymbidium orchids, puffy dahlias and green coxcomb- that's enough, right :)

Up close with Bari- sweetness of the french manicure, dress, jewelry, and flowers from the wild side.

Our ringbearer gets a wire coiled "pillow" of magnolia leaves, moss, corn broom, and orchid blooms.

Rough, au natural bark, magnolia and manzanita branches surrounded the ceremony space.

Dried lotus pods, vine spheres, and ivory mums nestled along the aisle leading to the chuppah.

Thank you for an awesome color request Bari! Congrats to you both!

Yummy Yellow

Chelsea Anne, I can't thank you enough! The flowers look good enough to eat!!

Gina and Josh wanted a very organic, natural feel to their wedding flowers; and in summer shades of golden yellow, peach, and orange- it was a fun wedding to create!

Gina's bouquet of white allium and dahlias, yellow stars of bethlehem, orange mokara orchids, peach calla lilies, and variegated geranium.

Cutie pie ringbearer with a boutonniere of a single pink rose and white dahlia bud.

Sweetness in a bridesmaid bouquet- the specialty parrot tulips were the perfectly blended shade of butter yellow and candy pink all in one.

The venue Paradise Gardens has an adorable gazebo that allows for some fun arrangements to frame the couple, and with that amazing lotus pond in the background!

All along the aisle, petite vases of Creamy Eden spray roses, pink coxcomb, and orange mokaras.

Check out the amazing dahlias!! I love those big fluffy varieties that come in by chance in exactly the right color I need for the weekend! With the buplureum and parrot tulips, white trichyllium, and golden james storie orchids, this ringed their sweetheart table.


Thank you again Chelsea Anne, and Congratulations to Gina & Josh!!

Dana & Klint

Darling couple from my own previous stomping ground.. that's right, little did you know I once lived in Texas! Dana's parents are some of the coolest cats around and they were oh so pleasant to work with as we planned for her wedding at the La Jolla Bridge Club. We went for old charm with creams, white, lavender, touches of blue, and a kick of lime. Keeping our charm, we wrapped the vases in antique lace to match the bride's gown.

urns of purple and blue hybrid delphinium, green hanging amaranthus, and brown cattails!

Ooh! Dana's bouquet of "Old Dutch" roses- light purple with green tinged edges, white and lavender freesia, creamy garden roses, green hydrangea, bells of ireland, blue veronica and more scabiosa

Rock-n-Roll!!

Who doesn't like to support a bunch of people running in white Elvis suits with enough studded rhinestones to be dangerous without sunglasses?
We were happy to participate in the Rock-n-Roll Marathon's Health Expo on Friday and Saturday in conjunction with EcoCaters. Offering all organic catering and locally grown sustainable flower arrangements seems a match made in health heaven, goodies for your tummy and your happy well-being.
