A Wedding! A celebration! …and the little things
I am fortunate to meet many Brides along the way. Upon our first meeting, I tell them how important it is that you not only pick a talented Vendor, but also that you like your Vendor. There is nothing worse than dreading someone showing up on your Wedding Day who causes you anxiety! You will know in the first few minutes of meeting a Vendor if they are a good fit for you. I knew immediately upon meeting Jane and her mother Sue, that they were a beautiful family and that I wanted to help create a gorgeous Wedding Day for them!
Jane has exquisite taste but didn’t know much about flowers. Sue added her thoughts and upon talking through different ideas and family memories, we decided that we needed to incorporate Gardenias into the wedding elements. Gardenias had been in both Sue’s and her Mother’s wedding bouquet. The guests wouldn’t realize how important they were; but to Jane’s Grandma and Mom they were one little detail that would mean so much.
Jane wanted to capture the vibrant summer colors. She loved the bright celadon green and how that plays off a vibrant red and orange. I grouped the flowers by color, as her preference was for a more A-Symmetrical look, nothing evenly distributed and forced. I paired exotic orange Mokara Orchids with red garden Dahlias and green Minnesota grown Hydrangeas.
I used only a creamy white in Jane’s bouquet. Her Bridesmaids were dressed in vibrant A-symmetrical green T-length cocktail dresses which were a perfect backdrop for the orange, red and celadon green flowers. They complimented the Bride’s Bouquet perfectly while telling their own story.
Inside and out, Jane was a beautiful Bride. Since her wedding, I have been blessed to help her and her family celebrate many more milestones. My wish is for all Brides to have a beautiful Wedding Day that exceeds their expectations! If you are the next Bride-to-Be, take a moment to think about the unique, personal touches that we can incorporate into your Wedding Day details. They make all the difference!
Wishing you a day surrounded in Beautiful,
Anne
