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!

2-5-11 Wedding

I received some lovely pictures from Ceniza Studios for Megan Conk's wedding at Eldredge Manor.  Megan found me through Ceniza Studios and I was thrilled to design her flowers!  Megan has a unique style of modern and traditional.  The only request I had from Megan was she wanted pinks and gerbera daisy's!  Everything else she let me have free reign on.  I love it when brides do that!  I did show her some pictures of ideas I had and she agreed to all of them. :)

Her bouquet was light pink and hot pink gerbera daisy's and light pink roses.  The boutonnieres and corsages where all gerbera daisy's.  We chose low and tall centerpieces of gerbera daisy's and unique greenery.  The buffet was moved from the food table to a hallway buffet in between the receiving line area and the food area.  A funny story to go along with the buffet piece; the cylinders started out with just floating gerbera daisy's and when I came back to take down the arrangements there where FISH in my cylinders as well! :) My nephews where ecstatic when I brought them over fish...they named them! :)

Fish... :)

No fish! :)

Bouquet of the Month and Giveaway details

I decided the other day that I wanted to start doing a little monthly give away along with posting some past bouquets for fun. :)

First off the giveaway!  Well I started a Facebook page.  But because I seriously lack in computer skills for some reason I haven't figured out how to put that cute little "F" on my blog so you can just "like" my page from it.  Sooooo you will have to do a little leg work for me until the hands of god help me!

So our March giveaway will be this.  Every BRIDE that "likes" my facebook page CHIC DESIGN STUDIOS and posts their wedding date on the wall will get 10% off their wedding flowers. 

Ready Set GO!!! 

Here is a bouquet I did a few years ago.  I LOVE feathers!  And I especially LOVE pheasant feathers.  I have a feeling this fall I should do a fall/rustic wedding with pheasant feathers.  Any takers?  If you want to do a wedding like this shoot me an email and I will give you 20% off! :)

Floral Feature-The Bride and Groom

I am so excited to show some pictures from our latest inspiration shoot that was featured on The Bride and Groom website that you can see here.
I got together with my good friend Ash with Ceniza Studios and we came up with a Valentines Day inspiration shoot.  We of course added our own little twist to the holiday by mixing rustic and vintage details throughout. 
I have to thank my lovely assistant aka my sister in law Rachel for helping make some of the adorable details like the XOXO wood blocks as well as the Mr. & Mrs. signs.  Got to love the creative family that is willing to help pull things together! :)
I hope you enjoy a few pictures and check out the blog post!!! :)

PS-is that one bouquet not the most amazing thing you have ever seen!?!  I LOVE IT :)
