Natural Beauty

Such a pretty picture... Lovely day for a wedding with rustic colors and a penchant for the raw, natural feel of flowers...I couldn't decide which bouquet shot was better, so I give you both :) I just love the mix of callas, wild eyed orange and green ranunculus, ruffly red roses, pin cushion proteas, rose-hips, freesia, and fiddlehead ferns wrapped with their long stems in a smooth ivory satin.

See how we coordinate? Bride and Groom, together in love and flower..

And now for the twist! Bright blue and white Bridesmaids bouquets with their ombre brown dresses!

Coordination without being too matchy-matchy, that is!
Groomsmen boutonnieres of textural eryngium foliage in electric blue with copper wire wrapping detail.

Sunlit ceremony on the greens...
Curly willow with chocolate brown satin, eryngium, and bells of Ireland adorn the arch in an asymmetrical way, just our style!

Simple chair accents- a few bells, loops of willow and a pop of bristly eryngium is all you need.And we have a happy couple!

Scratch that- We have a VERY happy couple! Check out the air on that jump! Go Bobby!Brought to you by the amazingly talented team at Red Letter Days- Thank you thank you!

Congrats Juli & Bobby!

Flowers in Paradise

Veronica & Anthony were married in the lavish setting of Grand Tradition Estate's new Arbor Terrace Pavilion - tropical and lush, the flowers needed to not compete with the color palette, but enhance the richness of deep green leaves surrounding their wedding... Veronica's desire for shades of warm reds and rust orange with a ton of play in texture turned out beautifully.

Veronica's bouquet of wildly colored calla lilies, dark milva and rouge basier roses, with mocha cymbidium orchids.

The gorgeously relaxed and happy couple..Bridesmaid bouquets of bright hybrid callas and cherry brandy roses in a cuff of italian ruscus.Love the softness of her veil and hair flowers in contrasting combination with her highly textured and boldly hued bouquet!

Table centerpieces of safari sunset, orange dahlias, roses, and seasonal mums in glass squares.

Can you say vivid color saturation point??!! Overdye sunflower with red rosehips..What a fun surprise when I saw Veronica & Anthony Natividad's holiday e-card in my inbox! Love the photo and the perfect play on words :)

Congratulations!

& many many many thanks to
