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

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…

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!

As usual, I have decided to take on yet another project. I have this vision of crafting “icy” pine cones for my much anticipated winter wedding in January. So this is where you come in, I NEED CONES! Does anyone have some neglected in their yard? I will happily come and collect them from you! Any size will do! Is there anyone out there willing to support my addiction? Puh-lease…..I am starting to get the shakes….gotta get those cones!

And for your viewing pleasure, I had to include this picture I found on The Knot. Look at all those cute pine cones used to support the branch. What a great place card table centerpiece! You could make several trees if you needed more room for all of your escort cards. I will be sure to post my cone creations in January…

Check out this cake – I love the snowflake detail!

Don’t these centerpieces make you think of winter?!?  I love the hanging crystals!

Such a cute idea….these could be used either as favors for the guests or just as a really creative seating card.

I loved pretty much all of this….I could keep going, but who knows when I would stop!  There are so many creative, beautiful ideas out there for winter weddings.  Sarah – we can’t wait!
