Philadelphia Wedding Florist: Tara and Charles
Tisk, tisk, Mary has been a bad blogger! It has been a while since we featured some wedding work and I apologize. We were away on a family vacation and the beach was just too distracting! Or maybe it was the 5 kids that kept us all busy…anyway, I am happy to showcase Tara and Chuck’s wedding from June 12, 2010. These docs (yes both are doctors) wanted an intimate backyard wedding, something Tara always dreamed about. When we arrived at her childhood home outside of Philadelphia and entered the backyard, I could tell her dreams would come true that day. A giant willow tree (I think I have to get one of these on the farm here) with a gazebo nestled underneath was the perfect place for vows and a nearby tent (with AC!!!!) was placed on lush green grass and was lit with chandeliers, I couldn’t have done it better myself. Take a look for yourself!

Tara putting on the final touches…notice her floral hairpiece that we recreated for her. This is what she had to say about it, "they were able to take a family heirloom hairpiece and bring it back to life, literally – they revived it, reworked it, and made it like new – and it's 5 generations old!" It was our pleasure!!
This is what the hairpiece looked like when she gave it to me. What can I say, I love a challenge!
Stunning.
Her dad confided in us that he only wanted to give her everything she hoped for on her wedding day….seriously pops, you made me tear up. Tara's bouquet is composed of white mini callas and stephanotis with a vintage inspired beaded leaf collar.
Her aisle was lined with these swirled hooks with hanging vases of orchids and callas…it looked great!
Told ya that tree was awesome!
Family shot….her bridesmaid carried picasso callas to coordinate with her white callas.
A perfect DIY project….Tara made table numbers from wine bottles and found the perfect place to display family wedding photos. How thoughtful!
Centerpieces were submerged callas with floating candles, a simple and elegant mix!
I have a feeling this might be hung in their house one day.
I covet this tree.
Thank you Tara for letting us be a part of your dream come true…best wishes for a lifetime of love!
