Carrie-Millcreek Inn

Carrie was a WONDERFUL bride to work with.  From the moment she contacted me I new we were going to click and work so well together.  I was dying to do Carrie's flowers so much that I totally re scheduled a vacation I had planned for St. George.  I know drastic but come on the flowers where FANTASTIC!!!

Carrie gave me her colors of guava and eggplant.  Now the guava right off was a hard color.  Very few if any flowers come in the color guava so we focused on the eggplant/purple color.  We added hints of orange/pink for the guava.  If I do say so myself it turned out FANTASTIC!  Carrie only had one stipulation concerning her flowers, she wanted something totally different and unique.  She specifically said I don't want it to look like any other brides bouquet out there.  Well Carrie I think we achieved it! 

I am going to beg for professional pictures from her photographer since the bouquet shape is hard to see in my pictures. 

Flowers used where: hydrangea, orchids, protea, greenery, fern curls, calla lilies, and curly willow.











La Caille Bridal Show

I know I just did a post about the La Caille Bridal Show.  But this post is showing all the great flowers I did for fellow industry friends!

I was able to provide flowers to Michelle with Utah Events by Design.  Michelle is an AMAZING event designer/planner that is located in SLC. I am so lucky to know her and stay tuned for future shoots with her!

The second booth I was able to provide flowers for was Avenia Bridal in Provo, UT.  The girls at the booth were so kind and fun!  Plus the dresses, oh boy the dresses!!!  They are all so amazing and unique!  Defiantly a must shop to go to when planning your wedding.

Bridal Show-La Caille Booth

I participated in the La Caille bridal show this summer.  I donated my floral services for the $100,000 wedding give away they put on every year!  I can't wait to post pictures of that fabulous event in October so stay tuned! :)

Back to the bridal show.  I did a smaller booth this time and focused on two different styles.  The first style is more rustic.  I used a combination of garden roses, stock, dahlias, succulents, and curly willow.  I have to go on a little tangit about succulents.  I LOVE THEM!  I find they are under used.  They are such a fantastic texture and color and bring such a great conversation piece to the table.  They are fantastic in bouquets, centerpieces, bouts, and corsages.  They come in all sizes and are one of my FAVORITES!



 The next look I went for was a more modern/classic look.  Something that is unique but that in 20 years you will still look back at pictures and be happy with your choice.  Flowers used are: phalaenopsis orchids (a new favorite), cymbidiumb orchids, roses, and blushing bride protea (my new favorite flower!).  Check out that fantastic leaf handle!  I ADORE IT!





Here are some pictures of the full booth and our adorable handouts that we did.  Our booth was an old vintage buffet and the handouts consisted of a cute paper sack with candy and we attached our business card with twine. 




Kathan & Laurie-July 2011

Laurie contact me a couple weeks before her wedding.  She was great to work with and had a clear vision as to what she wanted for her special day.  Here are some candid shots I took. 




Megan- April 2011

I have been such a slacker on blogging. I have a couple of shots from the wonderful McKenzie from Photography by McKenzie.  McKenzie is located in Utah County and does an AMAZING job! 

Megan contacted me 1 week before her wedding, that's right 1 WEEK!  Thankfully I was available and could provide her with some beautiful flowers.  Megan wanted something classic and traditional in yellow, pinks, cream, and green.  Flowers used are: yellow roses, pink ranunculus, white calla lilies, and greens.

Isn't her dress FANTASTIC!?!  I love it!  I have never seen anything like it!

Blanca~ 4/21/11

Blanca's daughter contacted me to work on her mother's wedding flowers.  I love when brides have a solid idea of what they want and their style. 

Paramount Photography was kind enough to send me some pictures of the wedding flowers.

Blanca wanted a classic look of red, white, and black.  In my opinion you can never go wrong with those colors! :)

Flowers used where: cream (vendella) and red (black baccarra) roses. 







Kristi & Tyler~ 6/4/11

This lovely wedding from June was shot by Kristin Klein with Pickled Pepper Photography (cutest name btw!).  Kristin was kind enough to send me some photos from Kristi's Bridal Shoot as well as the wedding. 

Kristi was the most stunning bride!  I loved her dress, her jewelry, hair, the list can go on and on!!!  Did I mention her dress!?! 

Kristi chose one of my favorite color combos and I was thrilled to work with a bride that wanted something bold.  There is nothing more stunning then fuschia, deep red, and green.  Kristi really wanted peonies and lucky for us it was peonies season!!! :) Those large fuschia blooms are STUNNING!!! 

Flowers used are: roses, spray roses, dahlias, pods, stock, spider mums, berries, and PEONIES!
