Earth Elements

This was a completely new creation for me! It was an Earth themed bouquet with a lot of natural growing elements one may find in their yard, a field, or in the wild. The bouquet is characterized by a natural habit and seasonal aesthetic. It is arranged with alstromeria, echinacea, carnations, seeded eucalyptus, millet, smokebush, and my personal touch of mini apricots. Stems are finished in twine to complete the Earth themed bouquet. Enjoy!





The boutonniere consisted of echinacea, alstromeria, seeded eucalyptus, and smokebush bound in twine..

Lacey & Gavin

This bridal shoot was so fun, I got to accompany the bride and groom to be, with their fabulous photographer Michael Lloyd. We enjoyed a variety of locations from a historic church, to an antique-type barn, a sunny meadow, and to finish at a sparkling lagoon. Michael's love and eye for photography is evidently displayed. Thank you for the lovely photos. 

Lacey and Gavin chose teal and gray as their main colors with accents of orange, peach, and white. Her bouquet is one of a kind. She left the flowers up to me, and if I do say so myself it is a beauty. I used Milva roses, peach cymbidium orchids, white lisianthus, scabiosa pods, and succulents. The stems are finished in a teal satin ribbon with white pearl accents.

Enjoy!



Gavin's boutonniere was a Mozart calla lily, variegated lily grass, and a mini succulent wrapped up in teal satin ribbon...

Janelle & Rey

Janelle brought a whole new meaning to "A style of our own." This bouquet was a real treat to create. I enjoyed working together with Janelle to create this vintage meets modern couture design. An attractive combination of vitality and glamour. A combination of elements include a variety of feathers, sarracenia, and a trace of crystals for sparkle.

Photography is by Michael Lloyd.




Rey's boutonniere was a selection of feathers stem wrapped in moss green ribbon and accented with pewter pins...

Kellyn's Bridals

Here is a pretty vibrant color bouquet designed with one of the bride's favorite flowers for her bridal pictures yesterday. Indian red gerbers are accented with red hypericum berries and the stems are finished in a Tiffany blue ribbon with red pearl accents. The colors are very striking. I am thrilled to do the wedding and event flowers!

Solely Distinctive

This is one of my favorite and unique bouquets to date. The theme was organic and vintage. It was made up of yellow iris and billy balls, orange calendula, cream lisianthus, gray dusty miller, beige scabiosa pods, and succulents. The stems were finished in a Tiffany blue ribbon and beige twine to play up the organic theme.

Adria & Kevin at Wadley Farms

Warm, cozy, and country was the feel they were envisioning. Latin Beauty roses, alstromeria, veronica, hypericum berries, seeded euc, lily grass, and salal bound with chocolate satin ribbon made up the bridal bouquet.






Centerpieces were cube designs of coordinating flowers...




For the ceremony we decorated the arbor with orange, peach, and red asiatic lilies....

Pave'

This is a pave' texture piece I did earlier this year. The combination of different textures can make an image richer and more interesting. Ruffly green roses, sleek cymbidium orchids, delicate strands of moss, spiky chrysanthemums, small florets of hydrangea, and dainty blooms of wax flower makes this a very distinctive piece.

English Garden Roses & Tulips

This bride wanted a classy vibe, but with a non-traditional feel. We used english garden roses, dutch tulips, seeded eucalyptus bound with sage and cream satin ribbon tied off in a non-traditional way and added a brooch for the finishing touch. It was a lovely bouquet!
