Sparkling Love in Vegas: Custom Brooch Bouquet and Boutonniere
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 Marketing Assistant, Victoria and her husband Tim. They decided to elope in Las Vegas, just the two of them, but we of course had to figure out a way to design their flowers! Althea (always the creative genius) came up with the idea of a brooch bouquet and boutonniere that could easily travel with the couple to The Little White Wedding Chapel. Victoria’s inspiration for their elopement was 70s Cher, so using sparkly, shiny brooches instead of flowers felt like a perfect “I Got You Babe” moment.
Winter White Elopement at St. Catherine’s at Bell Gable
There’s something magical about a winter elopement—intimate, cozy, and full of heart. St. Catherine’s at Bell Gable provided the perfect backdrop for the Guzman’s December nuptials, blending fairytale romance with the beauty of the season.
Wednesday: What's In It?
My primary focus was on the color palette and bouquet style. I wanted to make sure I captured Sarah’s preference for a whimsical bouquet with bright and pastel flowers. I made sure to have her inspiration pics with me as I designed. Althea was also there to help me along the way! And since my sister and I share similar tastes in style and color, I knew if I loved it, she would too!
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!

This year, the Pantone Color of the Year—Peach Fuzz—has been center stage for weddings! It brings a softness and romance to any wedding palette and harmonizes beautifully with rich blues and elegant cream accents. For Megan and Landon’s Summer nuptials at Sassafras Springs Vineyard, we brought this vision of warmth and sophistication to live in a Peach Fuzz dream!

For Miles, we designed a floral lapel piece featuring white ranunculus, spray roses, and mums accented with bright green lisianthus and amaranthus. For Quincy, we designed a complementary pocket square using the same ingredients. They looked amazing with their white tuxes with black lapels.

Flirty Pink Pastel Wedding at the Fayetteville Country Club
For Valentine’s Day, we always feature a few different color palettes—always inspired by the day of love. Flirt is one of our most popular palettes because it contains pastel pinks, whites, peaches, and sometimes light purples. It’s sweet and makes you smile, like young love. The bride saw a handful of arrangements headed out for delivery in the Fllirt palette and immediately said “I want that for my wedding!” And the rest is history.
Wednesday: What's In It?
For Jessica’s bouquet we used White O’Hara Garden Roses, lavender roses, pink larkspur, buttercream lisianthus and light blue delphinium. To add that wildflower whimsy she was after, we added limonium, wax flower, and scabiosa.
