Classic White Wedding Flowers at Fair Haven at the Vineyards
One truly special part about our line of work is getting to design for family and friends. This Fall, we had the pleasure of designing for our Assistant Designer Olivia’s best friend, Sarah. For their wedding at the newly opened Fair Haven at the Vineyards Sarah and David pictured classic white blooms with a touch of blue. To top it all off, Julie of Most Joyful Day coordinated the event and she actually referred Olivia to work with us 4 years ago. As the old adage goes, the rest is history so we couldn’t wait to get designing this friend-filled event!
Wildflower and Foliage Wedding at Sassafras Springs Vineyard
I always love when my clients have a clear vision for their wedding day. They share inspirational photos, color palettes, and overall thoughts for the feeling and vibe they want their special day to have. For Maura and Alex’s Summer nuptials at Sassafras Springs Vineyard, they came to us with the idea of a wildflower, foliage fantasy and we brought that dream to life!
For Maura’s organic style bouquet, we designed with multiple shades of green, cream, and small pops of terra cotta. Red Rudbekkia , cream butterfly ranunculus, two shades of yarrow and peach carnations were our focal flowers. While bupleurum, agonis, Italian Ruscus, and plumosa brought different greens and neutrals into the mix. The blooms were arranged in a wildflower style—designed to look effortlessly put-together, which is actually a master floral technique to achieve!

Pastel Rainbow Wedding at Sassafras Springs Winery
A trend I’ve seen more lately is brides embracing color! Now, don’t get us wrong, we love a traditional all white wedding, but there’s something so cheerful and happy about colorful flowers. For her summer wedding at Sassafras Springs Winery and Vineyard, Jessica came to me looking for a whimsical mix of delicate blooms in light, pastel tones. It felt garden party meets wedding and I was excited to bring the Rose of Sharon flare to it.
Warm Toned Autumn Wedding at The Garden Room
One thing I love about my job is that no wedding, no couple is alike. That means I get to be creative in a different way for each event I design for. I feel especially lucky when a client gives me free reign—within reason—for their big day. Brooke brought me photos of my own work (so flattering) and asked for muted, early fall tones. The palette was perfect for her early November wedding to Jacob at the beautiful Garden Room here in town. The free reign part, you ask? She said I could choose any flowers as long as they were in her color palette! I was so excited to design her autumn fantasy.

Warm Fall Wedding at Plentywoods Event Center
Spring may just have started, but I am in the thick of planning for my Fall 2024 weddings. What a perfect time to look back on Carly and Scott’s big day in early November at Plentywoods Event Venue. They chose a Multi-faceted color palette for their day, meaning the bride & groom’s flowers featured one color palette while the wedding party flowers were designed with a different, but coordinating palette. Using 2 palettes is a wonderful way to set you and your boo apart while also getting to embrace more colors. Read on to learn how we brought their vision to life!
White Rose and Gypsophila Wedding at Willow Brooke Farm
White roses and gypsophila, more commonly known as baby’s breath, will always be an eternal choice for weddings. Lately, gypsophila has been having a bit of a wedding renaissance so I’m always happy to put the Rose of Sharon spin on this classic flower. For Michaela & Landon’s big day in late September, they wanted timeless white flowers to accompany the beautiful natural landscape of their venue, Willow Brooke Farm.
Inspiration vs. Interpretation: Classic White Round Bouquet with Something Blue
I ask almost every client for inspiration photos during the creative process. It helps me understand exactly what they are envisioning for their wedding. When Shannon reached out and asked me to dessign for her and Brent’s intimate nuptials at Cooper Chapel, she actually brought me a picture of my own design! I was so flattered! She loved everything about it, but wanted to add a touch of something blue.
