Matt & Miranda ~ September 10th

9/20/10


What a beautiful fall wedding at an absolutely beautiful outdoor location. When I met with Miranda 4 months ago she was very adamant that the flowers and centerpieces all be centered around fall. For the brides and the bridesmaids bouquets I did a mix of rich fall colors in flowers such as cremons, roses, dahlias, Asiatic lilies and then used some curly willow to have the branches coming out which complimented the centerpieces. Her bridesmaids were in Navy and I must say I loved the color combo with the fall colors they really looked more vibrant against their dresses.
For the centerpieces we altered between 2 different styles. For the tall one we did a mix of pine cones and leaves in the base of the cylinder and then did willow branches out the top. They had such a dramatic affect and really complimented the view out onto the river and trees very well. The smaller version we did 3 different cylinders with 1 floating candle, 1 filled with pine cones and the other with a floating mum.
I love the Mississippi Dunes location for a an outdoor wedding and then the views from the reception room. More pictures taken by Cheryl Neuth to come especially of the ceremony!!

Congrats Matt & Miranda and thank you for letting me apart of your beautiful wedding day!!

Natalie & Dave ~ August 27th

WHITE WEDDING!!!!! What a FUN wedding to do, I had so much fun working with Natalie on creating a wedding that complimented her style and I think we hit it right on the head! For her bouquet I used mainly Anemones and then filled with ranunculus and fully blown roses.
We also incorporated the Anemone flower in Dave's boutonnière and had them cascade down the cake!
For the bridesmaids I did a mix of Hydrangea, ranunculus and roses all in white to accent their beautiful purple dresses.

The pomander balls added so much to their garden wedding at the Arboretum not only lining the aisle but as alter accents with a few of our candelabra tree's we acquired this year. Even though they are extremely labor intensive pomanders are so stunning at a wedding and really give it a romantic feel! To top it off we did white ostrich feather centerpieces at the Varsity theatre which not only complimented the space so well (even the owner of the theatre was intrigued by our centerpieces) but they truly spoke the theme of this wedding. Glamorous, vintage, white!!!

Congratulations Natalie and Dave, I hope your day was everything you imagined and more. Thanks for letting me help you design such a beautiful wedding!
