C & J at The Sanctuary at Admiral

It is hard to choose a favorite out of all the beautiful weddings we did this year, but C & J's wedding at The Sanctuary at Admiral is certainly up there in the top three. Creamy neutrals against dark foliages with pops of rich reds and gold- the perfect palette for late autumn. It was one of the last weeks local dahlias were still available, and that made it all the more special. C & J are such sincere, true people, and it really felt like an honor to create these designs for their wedding. All of these gorgeous photographs were taken by the one and only Kirk Mastin. Congratulations C & J!

Rita and Cirihn at The Corson Building

I loved working with Rita and Cirihn to design the flowers for their wedding last month at The Corson Building. We became acquainted by pure chance one day in late June, when Eli randomly met them while he was out on a walk, and immediately invited them to come over to our house. Despite the terrible example they saw of an arrangement on our kitchen table that was very, very ready for the compost pile, we hit it off right away, and they hired me to design the flowers for their wedding. It was so fun to work with them, all the while getting to know new neighbors! We went through a few different concepts before landing on this super-romantic palette of pale peach, blush, cream and pink. We filled every nook and cranny of The Corson Building with arrangements of garden roses, pastel mauve gomphrena, pepperberry, and the very last of the local dahlias. It was a beautiful and intimate scene. All photos by Haley Lovett.

Congratulations Rita and Cirihn!
