Bright Yellow Wedding

I was so happy to get to work with Danielle on her bright and happy yellow, white, and silver wedding!  I only have a few photos I took of the bouquets, but hopefully I'll get to add some professional photos of the beautiful day soon!  Here's a sneak peek.

Here is the bridal bouquet - a mix of whites, yellows, and a touch of green.  We used Ranunculus, football mums, freesia, spray roses, and roses, with a little variegated pittosporum around the base.

A front view.  We used sheer silver ribbon and added a little "bling" with a brooch on the front.

The bridesmaid's bouquets were a smaller yellow version of the bridal bouquet.  Yellow football mums, roses, freesia, and spray roses.

Here they are together with a small toss bouquet in the middle.

The top is a remembrance arrangement for the church ceremony.

Thanks so much Danielle!  I loved being a part of your wedding!  You were awesome to work with :)

Bright Yellow Dellwood Country Club Wedding

I had the opportunity to work again with one my favorite families!  I was lucky enough to do the flowers for one daughter last year and another this year!  They are truly a sweet and wonderful family to work with and I had a great time helping Chelsy bring her lace, pearl, and western vision to life!  There were tons of little beautiful details in this wedding, so get ready for lots of pictures :)

The wedding was held at one of the prettiest venues I've been to - Dellwood Country Club in Dellwood, MN.  It's just outside of White Bear Lake.  You can get a peek of it in some of the photos below.

For Chelsy's bouquet, she wanted a cascading full bouquet of orchids, roses, and lilies - all in whites and yellows.  She said "the bigger, the better", so that's what we did!

The bridesmaid's bouquets were made up of white and yellow roses and spray roses, as well as some billy balls and waxflower.  The yellows were a mix of lighter and darker yellows. You can't see the wraps in these photos, but they were burlap, twine and lace.

In the main hallway as you walk in, Chelsy had tons of personal touches that added so much to the feel of the wedding!  We added some flowers and floating candles in jars, etc.  

This table was introducing the attendants, as well as a place for the mini-corsages we made for the bride's sorority sisters.  They were made up in their sorority colors.

This was the Guest Book table.  Chelsy had a boot that we put the toss bouquet in, as well as a pretty framed chalkboard, a beautiful book for everyone to sign, and a handpainted thank you sign on some wood.  We added some floating candles and other flowers.

Here's the placecard table.  The guest names were in little corks.

They also had a table with a tv showing their slideshow.

I personally loved this table.  It was a family bible along with family wedding photos...gorgeous!

The ceremony was outdoors in a beautiful garden area.  We just added some flowers on some of the chairs on the aisles and some white and yellow petals to the aisle.

For the aisle flowers, we used larkspur, billy balls, aster, tree fern, snapdragons, and in the front row, yellow lilies.  We added burlap and lace to the base.

In the reception hall, my very favorite thing was the big "J" we put on the mantle above the dance floor.  It was made of little pom mums glued onto a cardboard "J". Such a fun pop of color to the room!

For the head table, they had a harvest table. We had a huge arrangement in the middle of the table with curly willow, stock and hydrangea.  We also added lots of votives and vases for the bouquets along the table.

All of the tables had burlap table runners, we used river rock in all of the vases, and all of the vases, jars, votives, etc, had little details of either lace, burlap, twine, raffia, or pearls.  (or a combination thereof).

We did lots of different types of arrangements.  One kind was white milk glass with lilies, roses, larkspur, mums, billy balls, etc.

Some were wooden boxes with lace and twine - we added hydrangea, stock, roses, billy balls, orchids, lilies, etc.

Another had jars we added burlap with lace, pearl, and twine.

And then on some of the tables, we had tall pilsner vases with hydrangea, curly willow, white dendrobium orchids and yellow oncidium orchids.

The bride had added the light mint colored chair sashes and the awesome wooden table numbers.

For the cake, we added a cluster of roses and some oncidium yellow orchids on the side of the cake and then some votives with little bits of oncidium around the base.

Here is a look at the whole room, with the beautiful draping and vaulted ceilings - loved this venue!!

Can't tell you how much I loved working with you all again!!  :)

Pretty in Pink Wedding

I was so fortunate to be able to work with Ashley and her mom to help bring her bright and beautiful pink wedding to life!  I really enjoyed working with the two of them to come up with some fun centerpieces using the bride's mix of hot pink and raspberry colored vases and some of my clear vases to bring everything together.  It turned out to be bright and colorful and elegant all at the same time.  It makes the process a lot of fun when you have a bride you get to collaborate with to really be able to have their personalities come through.

For the bridesmaid's bouquets, we did  a mix of white hydrangea, green mini-hydrangea, raspberry colored spray roses and raspberry colored Darcy garden roses...the garden roses were a stunning color!

We added a touch of bling wrap and silver pins to the bouquet handle. 

For the bridal bouquet, we did all raspberry colored peonies and Darcy garden roses.  

Again, the bling wrap and silver pins on the handle.

The reception was at the Lakeville Holiday Inn, which is a really beautiful space.  You can get a little bit of a feel for it in some of our photos.  You can also see that they added pink lights along the walls to add to the overall color scheme.  

The head table had some fun pink can lights behind the table with some draping.  I added some crystal and pink votives along the edge and the bouquets were added later along the whole table between the votives.

The toss bouquet was used as an extra bouquet along the head table. 

The centerpieces were a mix of several different kinds of pink vases the bride had, as well as some of my clear ones and some clear votives with bling wrapped around the bottom, some silver votives, and some pink votives.

For the family tables we did large arrangements of hydrangea - white and mini-green, spray roses, greens, and garden roses.

For the flowers on the tables, we did mostly white flowers with hydrangea, baby's breath, delphinium, larkspur, etc.  We had some of the raspberry colored spray roses here and there as well.

Then for the outer areas - placecard tables, buffet table, cocktail tables, etc, we added little touches.
