I am sooooo excited to share this wedding today. Any one that has read our blog before has read about Tina. She is a great friend of ours and a truly talented photographer based out of Philly. She has photographed many weddings that we have done, and has even done personal photo shoots of our kids (they love her too!).  When Tina and Jeremy got engaged we knew that their wedding would be one to remember; they know how to have a good time! Tina hired fellow photographer, Jamie Delaine as her wedding photographer (she flew in from Vancouver Canada for the wedding!) and I was beyond thrilled to see the shots that Jamie caught of Tina and Jeremy’s wedding day.  Tina knew she wanted a modern wedding with some traditional touches.  This is a couple that LOVES Philadelphia, Jeremy even popped the big question right in Rittenhouse Square, so it was no surprise when Tina picked Top of the Tower for their wedding to take place.  We used phalaenopsis orchids (we always love an excuse get our hands on these), limes, dahlias, and lots of fun little details to make Tina’s day extra special.

We knew Tina would be a gorgeous bride so we had better make a bouquet to match.  I think Mary nailed it with this all white bouquet.  She used dahlias, white polo roses, ranunculus, parrot tulips, brunia berries, maidenhair fern and stephanotis with a rhinestone accent.  We wrapped the bouquet with ivory satin and champagne lace.  A crystal brooch completed it (LOVE!). When ordering her bouquet, Tina said “I want it to be so big that I can barely fit my hands around it!” OUR KINDA GAL!

Tina sure made for one HOT bride!  STUNNING!!!

Finding the lace for this bouquet took me hours…I think it was totally worth it.

Since their wedding didn’t take place at a church, we helped define the aisle with these lanterns.  A green cymbidium orchid tucked in the top of these lanterns and a scattering of rose petals were all it took to make their ceremony room glow.

To create a backdrop behind the couple as they said their vows we used our pillars filled with curly willow, phalaenopsis orchids, crystals, and hanging mirrors.

The bridesmaids carried bouquets of green cymbidium orchids, parrot tulips, green trachelium, brunia berries, and maidenhair fern.  All the green looked so pretty against their black dresses, but seriously, the flowers can’t compete with these beauties!

Check out this adorable vase we used for their cocktail tables.  We are able to slide in a picture, so Tina gave us a bunch of her engagement pictures to use.  What a great way to get some more use of your engagement photos!  A mound of white dahlias made this the perfect size for the cocktail tables.

For the place card table we covered the table with wheat grass and then added bells of Ireland, ranunculus, maidenhair fern, and cymbidium orchids.  The cards were nestled among the flowers – so cute!

The cake was decorated with bells of irelend and cymbidium orchids – totally modern and gorgeous!

We did not want to compete with the jaw-dropping view at Top of the Tower’s reception room, so we decided to keep the centerpieces simple. We filled our chic vases with limes (the perfect shade of green) and had stems of phalaenopsis orchids cascading from the top of the vase.  We added a band of black ribbon with a rhinestone brooch to the top, and placed a single flower at every place setting. Only the best for our Tina!

Totally amazing!

I love, love, love these orchids!

 Tina and Jeremy, you two are such a sweet couple and we really enjoyed doing your wedding flowers and being a part of your day.  Best wishes to both of you on your future together!!! XOXO <3

Ok – Mary and I have vowed to try and get caught up with our blogging!  July has been a really busy month so far (yay!), but we had to share these pictures with you.  Danielle and Anthony got married June 5th at The Palace in Blackwood, NJ and we loved how her bouquets turned out. Danielle was a gorgeous bride and we are thrilled to have these pictures to share on our blog – thanks Danielle!

The glowing bride with her bouquet. Danielle carried white roses and calla lilies, with accents of rhinestones (love that bling!). Check out the rhinestone band covering the stems – we LOVED this band.

The bridesmaids carried coordinated bouquets of white roses and calla lilies, I love how sophisticated the all white bouquets look against their black dresses.

All white flowers really do create a sophistated, yet romantic look.

I love the outside ceremony area at The Palace, it is gorgeous!

I wanted to share this photograph because it shows a new trend we have been seeing alot more of; instead of corsages many moms are now choosing to carry small nosegays. It really helps tie the moms flowers in with the bridal party, I think her bouquet of mini callas is gorgeous.

Close up shot of bouquets – I am in love with the rhinestone bands!

Just had to share this picture because I think these two are just adorable!

Congratulations Danielle and Anthony – your wedding day was beautiful and we were so happy to be a part of it!!!

A few weeks ago Mary and I had the pleasure of designing and setting up the wedding flowers for Jenna and Mark at Running Deer Golf Club in Pittsgrove, NJ. The wedding planning started months in advance as Mary searched high and low for the perfect turquoise glass beads to use as an accent for Jenna. We really love how it all came together and are so excited to share the pictures with you. Issy Schmid was kind of enough to send us these fabulous shots. Definitely check out her website and blog, she does some amazing work!

The bridesmaids wore these cute little black dresses (love these!) and carried bouquets of yellow calla lilies. The yellow really popped against the black! Jenna carried an all white bouquet of roses, lilacs, calla lilies, tulips and stephanotis….and of course we accented with some turquoise bling.

Here is a close up of Jenna's bouquet. The rhinestones in the stephanotis were gorgeous. We also wrapped her bouquet with a handkerchief that had been handed down in her family, these are the kind of little touches that we love to add.

I had to add this picture because they both looked so awesome in it. You can also see how the handkerchief was wrapped around the stems of her bouquet.

Look at this gorgeous bride!!!

As usual the set up at Running Deer went perfectly. We used our tall bell vases with a stem of yellow orchids in the bottom and a mound of white hydrangea on top. We hung the turquoise beads from the top of the centerpiece and of course sprinkled some on the table.

For the low centerpieces we used this coordinating bowl with floating orchids and candles. Look at how pretty the glass beads are on that mirror.

Jenna and Mark were married outside at Running Deer underneath their new pergola. We hung these cute little bubble vases with hydrangea from the pergola. We had some strands of the beads left and didn't want any to go to waste so we decided last minute to add them to the pergola – I think this really made it all come together.

To line the aisle we hung these adorable little daisy pomanders from shepherds hooks.

Thanks to Issy for all of the great photos.  And congrats to Jenna and Mark – we had so much fun doing this wedding!

1. Sisters are a funny bunch to work with (believe me, I know!) because the personalities are so different yet complimentary, which was certainly the case with Maria and Michelle. Loved em!

2. Upon delivery of her bridal bouquet, Maria was getting her hair and makeup done while her sweet dad took it all in. He asked her if she was going to wear a veil. Maria quickly replied, “There is no veil, the hair is the veil.” That was seriosuly the funniest thing to overhear, check out the pics, it is true! Her hair was totally veil like!

3. We never know what we are about to encounter while delivering at the reception hall. Thankfully The Merion welcomed us with a perfectly ready room and even some entertainment! There was a school fraternity that was using the room as a place for pictures and dance practice, it was the most entertaining set up of all time! They were great dancers!

4. I fell in love with our bell vases again <3

Check out the beautiful pictures from Joseph Clementi Photography (and a few from our own camera mixed in!). Thanks so much for sending them to us Joe!  Without further ado, I present Maria and Craig’s Marvelous Wedding….

See what I mean about the hair/veil comment! Jealous!

Maria’s bouquet featured 2 shades of ivory roses and stephanotis with pearl accents, you can’t get much more classic than that!

The happy couple…think this will be in their living room one day?

A close up of the bridesmaids bouquets: ivory roses + white anemone = simply chic!

Centerpieces stole the show with elegant white hydrangea, glittering branches and the adorable hanging table number!

Not that we had anything to do with it, but I loved her favors! Wawa coffee and the newspaper! Something tells me Michelle had her hand in this…

Well, I would love to add another pic of the beautiful bridesmaids in their lovely black gowns, but my comp is being insane and I am giving up! Use your imagination haha. I will try it again later. Oh technology!

So this is the post all of our winter brides have been waiting for! I just got the digital prints hot off the press from Tina and couldn’t wait another day to share them with you! Thank you Tina for ALL of the great photos from Sarah’s January wedding, you amaze me more and more with each wedding (or Lee photo shoot!). For those of you who don’t know who this beautiful bride is, she is my best friend and partner in crime, Sarah. I felt honored to design the flowers for her wedding day (and serve as her Matron of Honor!), she gave me all the creative freedom I wanted and only gave me one tip, “I like lots of candlelight!” Well, we didn’t burn down Waterfall Banquet Center, so I would consider that a success! Dawn and I put candles in every facet of this wedding, and the warm glow really lit up the happy couple. Let’s just get right to the good stuff…

Sarah's bouquet is one of my all time favs…I wanted to capture her sweet and simple personality so I choose white and cream garden roses, white fringed tulips, white cymbidium orchids and ranunculus. White feather trim added the perfect amount of texture and style to this classic bouquet.

Bridesmaids carried green and white orchids with fringed white tulips, of course we added feathers and crystal trim too!

The bridal party adoring Sarah…that was an easy shot!

Sarah and Joe share their vows….doesn't the background look magical? I took inpiration from an episode of Platinum Weddings, and I think my version looks better!!

The aisle was lined with our new pedestals, which were linked with a crystal strand and a feather boa. Floating candles and orchids added some more drama!

A screen of willow trees decorated with crystals, votives, mirrored garland, snowflakes and orchids. Vases of pinecones and candles added some extra warmth to the ceremony location.

Windowsills were dressed with our diana candleholders, pinecones and orchids to warm up the room.

 

Adore the steamy lighting here in front of the waterfall!

 

The fireplace in the lobby was a perfect place for a big show of candles, roses, ornaments and my personal favorite, amaranthus!

 

Manzanita trees with orchids, crystals and hanging votives are taken to the next level with a lush floral ring at the base. Guests were able to take the ring home!

Coordinating candlelit centerpieces in a classic silver bowl, these were so elegant! The bowl is a rental item and the arrangement is designed to be given away to guests at the end of the party.

 

A simply beautiful cake stamped with snowflakes and adorned with orchids.

 

I know this has nothing to do with flowers, but I just had to include this shot! Silversound DJs (Dan Breslin was awesome!!) even got Gram Brooks out on the dance floor! Best wedding DJ I have ever heard!

I just had to include this one because I love when couples do this! She made her thank you cards with this shot!

That was just a selection of all the great photos from her wedding day, I hope you enjoyed a look into their special day! It was my pleasure to do what I love for the lovable Sarah, thank you for your total confidence in Dawn and I, but more importantly, thank you for our friendship. Love you 620 McKean (our freshman dorm at PSU!) 

Stay tuned for my next blog entry about my wedding toast to the lovely couple…I have had lots of requests to publish it! There are more farmer’s wives out there that need to hear this!

Talk about a blushing bride…Colleen certainly was! I just got these awesome shots from David Humphrey, a local photographer serving the tri state area. FYI to my budgeting brides out there, he has maney different packages and prices listed on his website, thanks Dave! Anyway, back to Colleen and Stephen. Their wedding took place at Paris Caterers at the Palace in Blackwood NJ, which is a great local venue that a lot of brides don’t know about! It is nicely updated with beautiful decor, the ballrooms are very clean, the managers are organized and friendly and they also have space for indoor or outdoor ceremonies of any size. Since Colleen and Steve got married on Novemeber 14th, they had their ceremony inside the Paris Room, with the reception immediately following in the Garden Room. Her aunts crafted these beautiful fall wreaths and hurricane candle centerpieces and Colleen chose to use many of the existing flower arrangements at The Palace to decorate her ceremony, so we just focused on the bouquets, personal flowers, unity candle and the cake.

 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….

Mary and I love to add little details to each wedding that help make them unique. About a month ago we got to do a wedding for Colleen and Stephen. Colleen was looking for a fall theme with a little something extra. We ran with the theme and decided to make that little something extra feathers. We thought about adding acorns, or fall leaves, but once we saw these feathers we knew we had to use them. The striking hues of dark blue and green and really stood out in the bouquets, adding that extra touch of glamour that we were looking for. Check it out….I def see more feathers in our future (watch out Sarah B….I think your January wedding is going to feature some gorgeous white feathers!).

Colleen’s bouquet included calla lilies, roses, ranunculus, hypericum berries, stephanotis, and of course a few feathers tucked in around the bottom. The bouquet turned out so elegant; I loved the touch of color from the ranunculas and the feathers, it added just the right amount of contrast.

Here is a close up shot of the top of the bouquet. You can see how well everything worked together. The feathers peeking out of the bottom added a touch of fun to this elegant bouquet.

I adored these bridesmaid bouquets. The rich fall colors really popped against truffle gowns. We added more feathers to these, and a strand of dark brown beads strung across the top. The combination of red gerbers, purple lisianthus, yellow roses, with a touch of orange coming from the ranunculus and hypericum berries really created a gorgeous fall bouquet.

I added this picture to show how just a few flowers can really dress up a unity candle. These gorgeous orange roses accented this unity candle perfectly.

Hope you enjoyed our little adventure with feathers….keep on checking, I am sure we will be back with more ideas for feathers through 2010!
