Jessica’s bouquet was gorgeous. We used red anemone, red gerber daisies, red peonies (LOVE), red intuition roses, hypericum, and a touch of seeded eucalyptus.  Of course we had to add just a touch of bling with some rhinestone pins.

Jessica was a beautiful bride.  The flower girl carried a pomander of red spray roses accented with some black satin ribbon and a few crystals.

The bridesmaids carried bouquets of coordinating flowers.  The red bouquets photographed amazing against their black gowns.  I love their pearl necklaces!

Running Deer has this firepit outside now and it is the perfect spot for a picture.  I am so glad that Nick and Jessica weren’t afraid to venture outside for this photo…even if it was December!

I love everything about this picture!

For the centerpieces we filled our tall chic vases with cranberries. To the top we added winterberry branches that we hung strands of crystals and hanging votives from. We added small cylinders around the bottom of the vase with floating candles, cranberries, and holly leaves submerged in the water. Everyone said the room looked like a wedding magazine!

I love all the candlelight in this room…so pretty!

These centerpieces were really eyecatching…I loved them!

For the sweetheart table we used a mirrored vase filled with the gerbers, roses, and candles.  A few of our luminaries flanked the centerpiece.  The room looked gorgeous.

The cake was so pretty.  It was accented with black velvet ribbon, gerber daisies, and winterberry.

To Nick and Jess, we wish you all the best! You two are a perfect match <3 Nick, you better pinch yourself daily because you found someone that always laughs withyou, not at you Love you both! xoxo-Mary

Roanna with her bridesmaids

Roanna and Reed had a first look session before the ceremony….I love how he is looking at her, so sweet!

Roanna's bouquet featured red roses, red mokara orchids (love these!), red hypericum, yellow freesia, and galax leaves.

All the bouquets lined up pretty

Who knew yellow and red was such a stunning color combo!

Check out the mokara orchids in these – we def plan on using these more. The lemons worked perfectly with the red roses, circus roses, and orchids.

For the place card table we used long stem yellow callas accented with red ribbon.

Thanks Roanna and Reed for letting us be a part of your special day!!!

Melissa and her dramatic bouquet of the darkest red roses, callas, green cymbidium orchids and bear grass.

A close up of her wedding bouquet. We added pearl accents to compliment her gown.

She looks like a model! So classy and naturally beautiful.

Bridesmaids carried simple bouquets of green cymbidium orchids with bear grass loops, finished with coordinating chocolate satin ribbon and a row of pearl pins.

 Again, I would like to express my thanks to Melissa and Joe for a) driving the terrible turnpike down to me! b) being so cute and super easy to work with and c) playing Smashing Pumpkins during your wedding ceremony. That was awesomely jaw dropping! Best wishes for a long and happy life together <3

During many of my bridal consultations, I kept hearing that Mabilog name pop up, so I decided to check her out and BAM there she is right down the street! I emailed to introduce myself and she invited me to her studio for a casual meeting…sure I was down for that! Denise also asked me to provide a bouquet for her “trash the dress” photo shoot the next day and I was happy to do so. Sometimes I see these bridal photo sessions with NO flowers and I just feel like something is missing, the bouquets finish the look! I kinda like the idea of the “trash the dress” shoot, I wish I had done it! You get to wear your gown again before you pack it up forever and take some more natural shots and you don’t have to be so worried about getting it ruined. Genius, Denise, genius. So while we were at her cute little studio in downtown Mullica Hill, she offered up a little impromptu photo shoot with little ole me and my bouquet! There are more photos on her blog, but here are a few she sent to me.

I currently do not look this wide awake haha

Being a busy wedding florist is serious business

How does she make this look so good? Denise, you rule!

Latin Lady red roses are my new red rose standard – the two tone look is so eye catching! I wanted to keep the bouquet natural, so I added some texture with feathers and willow. I think the bouquet is on the back of the bride's horse…how cool is that!?!

The bride, wearing a vintage 1964 wedding gown, it was her mom's! What a great way to give it a new life!

Thank you Denise for the photos and the new friendship! It feels good to be making many new friends in the wedding industry, to check out some more of my vendor friends, see my Vendors page. I guess that is all for now, the sun is up and my house is still quiet. John has another busy day ahead on the farm and Lee and I are going to spend the morning with Mommom, I hope I can keep my energy going until I get to the Philadelphia Flower Show tonight! I love that I can use the “research” excuse…

 Colleen wanted to capture the colors of the season with her wedding flowers and bridal party, so her maids wore a rich chocolate brown (one of my favs, it is the perfect neutral!). For her bridal party flowers, we used saturated fall tones like red, purple, yellow and orange, which looked great against the warm dresses! Their hand-tied bouquets of red mini gerbers, purple lisianthus, yellow roses, peach ranunculus and hypericum berries were finished with some of our favorite accents – peacock feathers and brown beaded wire!  

Surrounded by lots of love!

Our happy bride and her maids…the colors stand out nicely, don't you think?

Colleen and her maid of honor…notice how we added a few of the stephanotis to make her stand out from the rest of the beautiful bridesmaids.

Colleen’s bouquet was designed to be a bit more traditional with mostly ivory flowers with a touch of color, it was so elegant! She loves calla lilies and stephanotis, so those flowers were the stars of her bouquet. Ivory roses, a soft peachy orange ranunculus (OBSESSED), hypericum berries and of course some peacock feathers and pearls (sassy and simple!) completed the bouquet.

Traditional with a twist…our specialty!

Colleen, you are so stunning! A natural beauty.

Love that bout too!

Steamy!

A timeless shot…

Her mother’s corsage coordinated with the bridal party flowers and showcased peach roses on a beaded wristlet (we NEVER use those tacky elastic scratchy wristlets) and I just had to include this picture, because now you know where Colleen got that beautiful smile from! Great shot Dave!

Love it!

For their unity candle, we just did a simple arrangement of these HUGE orange roses that really said it all. After the ceremony, the arrangement was moved to their sweetheart table to serve as the centerpiece there. Great way to save some money!

This one is from our own camera, but at least you can see the size of those awesome roses!

The couple’s cake was a traditional design with a topper. We accented the layers with coordinating flowers in bright colors, which stand out best on any wedding cake.

I like the rounded layers of this cake!

So thanks again to Colleen, you were a total pleasure to work with and we were happy to be a part of your wedding day. May the seasons of your new life together be full of many many smiles….

Bridal bouquet featuring lisianthus, anemone, ranunculus and beaded bear grass.

Bridesmaid bouquet of red roses, yellow calla lilies, red dahlias, hypericum berries and bear grass. The colors really popped!

Half of the tables were done with these candle holders. Bear grass was looped inside to add some interest and red rose petals were sprinkled on the table. The candle holders are a rental and a great way to keep your centerpiece price reasonable.

The other half of the tables featured this coordinating pedestal with red roses, yellow spray roses, bear grass, and croton leaves. They definitely were eye catching, and coordinated perfectly with the theme.

Had to include this picture! Aren't those red bridesmaid dresses adorable!

One last shot of the happy couple, isn't Nancy gorgeous!
