Upscale St.Paul Wedding | Slate Blue, Silver, Green, White

Last week's wedding was a color combination of slate blue, green, silver, pewter, and white...extremely elegant and superbly stunning!













View of the reception room. 3 different styles of centerpieces dressed the tables with excellence.



















The tall centerpieces set the tone


















2nd style of centerpiece was a medium height arrangement in silver mint julep vase



















3rd style was similar to the one above, just in a shorter vase...



















The boutonnieres...

Special Order for a Special Momma's Birthday

2 of my aunts, uncle, and grandma chipped in and ordered an arrangement from me for my mom's birthday this year. I chipped in a little too to make it 3 times as special.

Over 2 dozen roses, peonies of plenty, vibrant colors, and some extraordinary specialty flowers from Kenya, Africa cooperate to make this arrangement pop!

For One of My Lovely Bride's Shower

The bride whose wedding I am doing this weekend's colors are blue, green, and white. Her bridesmaids ordered some coordinating flowers for the shower they threw her a few weeks ago and this is what we came up with!





























































Stay tuned for photos of her wedding flowers after this week...

Vibrant Colored Mother's Day

Whipped up a vibrantly colored arrangement for my momma for mother's day. She loves deep colors, bright colors, and jewel tones.
































And, I love using curly willow in anything and everything.
I absolutely love the organic and unconfined individuality it gives to arrangements.

Dark Red & White, A Simple Wedding

My first wedding of the season this past May was a simple wedding with the colors deep red, white, and silver. It seems red and white is a traditional color combination. This bride was on a tight budget and decided to do mini bouquets for her bridesmaids...simple & sleek nosegays. Take a look:

And, the altar bouquets...there were 2 of these for the altar
