I added billy balls and some soft mint lambs ear to the vases... It had just rained and I love the look of the drops on the vases...

Nora's Bridals

Nora's color palette consisted of navy blue, sky blue, and cream. She was wanting a bouquet that was very simple, but classy. Hydrangeas, freesia, and stock were hand tied and bound with a navy satin ribbon and tied off with streamers. Nora was such a gem to work with! Thank you to Rebecca Hansen Photography for the lovely pictures. She is so very talented!

Nora & Michaels Wedding

Nora and Michael look absolutely stunning! You can tell how they beam in each others company, and what a gorgeous couple they make! They chose navy blue, sky blue, and cream as their colors with a style theme of simple and classy, with a modern flair. Nora's bouquet had light blue hydrangeas, white mini calla lilies, white freesia, and white stock with an accent of fern curl (white lilacs were suppose to be in there but sometimes they are so fickle for the short amount of time they are in season, but it turned out gorgeous!). Her bouquet is finished in a navy blue satin ribbon with streamers. Enjoy! 


The stunning photography is by Rebecca Hansen Photography. Absolutely amazing...and oh so talented! 




For Michael, we did a white calla lily boutonniere with accents of israeli ruscus and fern curl, finished in a navy blue satin ribbon. Simple, classy, yet modern.


Nora and Michael's cake was so unique. It exhibited their style completely. Flowers designed on top of the cake are hydrangeas, gladiolas, freesia, and fern curls. 


Centerpiece arrangements were an assortment of white flowers and fern curls against a green leaf setting...

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!

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!
