Steph with Steph

Stephanie's Awesome Wedding Flowers! Her colors were black, white and GREEEEEN! Not the norm, but ended up being the most fun I have had designing a wedding. Steph's easy-going pwersonality gave me my artistic license anytime I wanted to use it! And guess what the best part was?! SHE LOVED IT! (of course she did! have you seen the pictures yet? no? well get on with it!) So I still haven't heard back from the photographer, but these are better than nothing! The above is the gorgeous Bridal Bouquet, Two cymbidium orchids (representing the two lovebirds), surrounded by green spider mums, stephanotis (little white flowers with pearl centers), white roses, hypericum berries, and green button poms, with some bear grass loops. Stephanie was a little concerned with the greenery before, saying that she didn't want anyone looking at the flowers, and thinking "wow, that's a lot of leaves", so we just left them out completely.

This is the Throw Bouquet, obviously smaller, but similar flowers, and lots of bear grass! (ooo I love it!)

Sorry this is upside down, but you get the idea.




Close up on the Brial below.




For the sweet Bridesmaids..... gerber daisies, hypericum berries, green spider mums, and green button poms. (I waited until I was at the ceremony to cut the stems to proper length)






For the Groom: (above)



Pretty simple groomsmen boutonnieres, but they look pretty cool!



My favorite corsages, I have ever done! I loved each of them. The bear grass is an awesome airy substitute for normal green leaves.






To go along wth her invitations and to match her style, I designed this wrap! The black lace over the white silk is different, and "sexy". HA ha.




there are more pictures, but I just don't have them :( I'M stranded in New York.

Peacock Wedding Beautiful Kaitlyn

Kaitlyn and her sweetheart, have some awesome taste! They chose to go with a French Theme, That's where the peacocks came from.
Can I just say? This was probably the most challenging wedding to date! I stewed weeks over whether or not it would work out the the way it did in my head, and then stressed over Kaitlyn's approval. I designed the bouquet 3 times before I felt I had it right. Well it turns out, she loved them, and it made me feel so good because of how much time it took to achieve it, (twice as much compared to other weddings I have done.)
The peacock feathers were a real challenge because of thier shape. They are one sided, flat and tall. The callas are considered a "tall-headed" flower head, the 3 inches height make out for a larger radius on the head of a bouqet. So the two combined, made it difficult for me. But it certainly paid off! The cascade shape looks great with the tear shaped callas.





This is the Maid of Honor's bouquet, and the Throw Bouquet was something similar.


I didn't go set up at the reception for this one, but here are the centerpieces. I am sorry, I don't know the photographer's name, or I would give credit.



And these are the Mother's Corsages, and please excuse the picture taking- my bad, but these use mini calla lilies.
