Spring is my favorite season. One of the main reasons for that are the flowers. I was so happy that Hannah was up for up for incorporating spring flowers into her wedding design. I was able to source the most beautiful locally grown tulips for her bouquets and arrangements as well as including my favorite daffodils that I have grown. Add in one of everyone's

A Pastel Palette at Discovery Lodge–Revisited

A Classic White Wedding at Farmer and Frenchman-Revisited
I'm revisiting Carly and Tyler's wedding this week with beautiful photos from Shillawna Ruffner Photography. Enjoy! The bride works for a local bridal shop so of course the dresses were beautiful! The guys looked great, too. The vineyards at Farmer and Frenchman are a beautiful backdrop. The ceremony and reception were held indoors in the

Just be sure to jump back to see these gorgeous photos! Isn't this color palette amazing?! I love the blend of the bridesmaid dresses and the way the burgundy and golden
Tis the Season to be Married
Greenery and sparkle are perfect for a wedding just before Christmas. Marley and Max's wedding was full of both with several types of seasonal greenery, twinkling candles, and white accents. It was seasonal, but also not too Christmas-y for the weekend before the holiday. Due to COVID, the guest count was reduced. There was a small ceremony at St. Benedict
A Blush + Burgundy Wedding
While setting up for Kristen and Bradley's wedding, one of my assistants asked if delivering the bouquets was my favorite part of the day. Truthfully, it's sometimes. Some times I can sense stress or high emotions in the room and I know that it is best to leave the flowers and quickly leave to let the wedding party get back to getting ready. Sometimes I don't actually see
Incorporating Blue into Weddings
When a bride tells me they want to have blue in their wedding, I admit it makes me feel a little anxious. The reason being--there are hardly any blue flowers. Thistle, delphinium, and hydrangea--that's it. If one of those flowers doesn't fit your look, well... You are out of luck. Luckily, delphinium fit Austyn's look perfectly and when she told me she wanted to use
Modern Fall Colors
Mauve is back! Those of you who remember the mauve of the '80s may be asking why but this is mauve in a new way. The warm, rosy tone mixes beautifully with fall colors and gives a more cozy feel from the blush tones we see in spring and fall. We played off the mauve and rust tones of the bridesmaid dresses from Morgan and Andrew's wedding, adding in burgundy, golden
Warm Neutrals
Blush has been trending in wedding design for several years. It is often paired with white, pink, or for contrast, burgundy. I have noticed a shift to warmer pairings more recently and was happy to mix the blush tones with peaches and corals for this wedding at City View. Carrie and Charles' original April wedding design was centered around coral peonies and mixed
A Flower-Filled Wedding Ceremony
A beautiful church and timeless, white flowers is the perfect match. That was the combination for Kendall and Aaron's wedding ceremony at St. Bernard Catholic Church. Kendall's goal was to fill the church with flowers and candles. We started outside. We draped the railings with garlands, added wreaths, and urns filled with flowers. The softness of the
