Pink Orchid Tree Escort TableThe bride had a penchant for sparkly things, so we placed a few complementary crystals on the pink and white orchid tree at at her cocktail hour.  Pink and white roses in silver julep vases were the perfect accent for cocktails table.  Lovely.

After selecting their escort card and a quick refreshment, guests were serenaded by a mariachi band who escorted them into the Glass Oaks Ballroom for the reception.

Used en masse, Baby’s Breath has stolen it’s way into my heart.  Just look at the mockups that I did for a recent client.  How pretty this would be in a rural setting with touches of burlap and lace.

After the ceremony, this arrangement could effectively grace a buffet table or a bar.

Baby’s Breath Centerpiece.

Very pretty, simple centerpiece that adds height to the setting.  Shown with curly willow, it would be gorgeous to add a touch of dendrobium orchids to the vase.

Hydrangea Table Setting.

Pair the baby’s breath with classic hydrangea:  Simply Charming.

It was great to meet Tyler Schmitt of The Mill Photography Studio.  I always try to document my work, but it is amazing what a professional photographer can do.

Purple and Apricot BouquetsNew Picture (2)I added the hearts, but they had the cutest expressions on their faces (check Tyler’s blog!).  Composition and color were perfect!Purple and Apricot FlowersCamp Lucy was amazing.  This is the true color of the linens and flowers…they really popped!  The lighting was dim, but Tyler Schmitt was able to capture the beauty of the event with blinking.  Wow.

(I had to remove my pictures of this wedding as they looked so awful compared to Tyler’s work.)  Seriously, hire a pro for your photography…it makes a world of difference!!

Lemon Tree…very pretty.
