Although most ringbearers don't actually have the responsibility of carrying the rings nowadays (I don't think I'd let a little guy run around with expensive jewelry either!), that doesn't mean he shouldn't sport an awesome, stylish pillow! We love that our recent bride Cassie chose to have a cool pillow covered with lime green kermit chrysanthemums and tied up with black & white polka dot ribbon for her ringbearer! Why not let every detail show off your awesome wedding style?!

A Colorful Summer Wedding
This bride was all about color, and lots of it! Her bouquet incorporated 8 colors that made up the color pallet for her wedding, and which were brought out in fun ways throughout the day.
A personal touch was added to the bride's bouquet with a beautiful butterfly pin.
Each bridesmaid wore a different color dress, so to keep the look simple and crisp, we gave each girl a bouquet of white gerbera daisies.
The groom's all white tux was a nice background for his pastel boutonniere, which incorporated many of the colors in our pallet...any more flowers would have made a corsage!
Instead of using a traditional aisle runner, we placed generous handfuls of white rose petals down each side of the aisle, and then "planted" colorful gerbera daisies.
This colorful arrangement hung from the arch where the bride and groom said "I Do." It's packed full of roses, gerbera daisies, stock, delphinium, various greens, and ivy.

25th Wedding Anniversary
The theme for this 25th wedding anniversary was wine. Held at a lovely country club, the hosts provided special bottles of wine for each table. They wanted a lively color pallet, and we wanted to incorporate the feeling of a winery in some way, so we included fantastic bunches of grapes in each piece.
The inside centerpieces were rectangular glass vases wrapped in a deep purple ribbon and filled with hydrangea, gerbera daisies, roses, delphinium; with ivy and grapes hanging from one side.
The outside centerpieces were smaller versions of the main centerpieces.
The cake and gift table arrangements matched the inside centerpieces, except they were larger and had more greens.
This large arrangement sat at the buffet station. It's full of large white hydrangea, roses, gerbera daisies, delphinium, ivy, and grapes. It's topped off with some curly willow.

Bride and Cake
This bride carried a bouquet of orange tiger lilies, bright pink gerbera daisies, white spider mums, green coffee berries, stephanotis with jewels, and turquoise hydrangeas. The bride wanted the hydrangeas to match some ribbon she bought, so after testing a few different spay paints (safe for flowers) we got a perfect match!
The cake was dressed with more of that fun turquoise hydrangea, roses in various colors, orange wax flower, and white spider mums.

A Spring Wedding
This wedding was extra special because it was my sister who was getting married. She chose to use pinks and greens throughout her wedding - what a fun color combo!
The bride carried a round hand-tied bouquet that was packed full of green and pink hydrangeas, gerbera daisies, freesia, calla lilies, peonies, dog-eyed euphorbia, and green spider mums...just to name a few!
Even though the bridesmaids had patterned dresses, we went with a multi-colored bouquet, which added some spunk.
Pomanders of green kermit chrysanthemums hung from wrought iron shepherd hooks along the aisle.
The flower girls carried pomanders of kermit chrysanthemums and pink spray roses, and the ring bearer carried a pillow made of kermit chrysanthemums tied with pink ribbon.
A simple toss bouquet, which matched the others, sat on the cake table.

An Engagement Party
After my sister got engaged, she and her fiance hosted a party to share the news and give the two families a chance to meet. She went with a classy black and white theme for her backyard party.
Each long table had a few of these small square glass vases arranged with white hydrangeas, roses, gerbera daisies, wax flower, spider mums and greens.
The cake and gift tables had these larger arrangements, which incorporated "floating" ivy and black river rocks.

Sweet 16 Party
The theme for this Sweet 16 party was Hollywood Glitz and Glamour.
As guests arrived, they were greeted by these tall arrangements of dark red roses, black feathers, bear grass, gold ting ting and some wheat-like greens that we spray painted black. These grand arrangements sat on black wooden pillars, which our husbands built and painted for us.
We had two different centerpieces for this party. The first were small square glass vases compactly lined with red roses. The bottom of each vase had black river rocks that we flecked with gold paint. The other ones were gold mint julep cups filled with dark red roses and black feathers.
We topped the cake with dozens of red roses.

A Fall Wedding
Each season inspires different color pallets and themes. For Fall, it's rich, warm colors, foliage and berries. We were lucky to work with this bride who had an exciting vision we could implement, and who also gave us lots of creative license.
This luscious 3-part arrangement hung from a hand-crafted copper arch. It is full of dahlias, roses, berries, sunflowers and maple branches in rich Fall colors.
We used a traditional white cloth aisle runner and scattered colorful maple leaves down the center for a nature-inspired look.
Large vases full of yellow kangaroo paw and red Chinese lanterns sat on pieces of slate at the base of the arch.
These pomanders hung from wrought iron shepherd hooks, which created a pathway for guests to the ceremony site.
These adorable centerpieces are made from pie pumpkins filled with roses, coffee berries, mini calla lilies, sunflowers, dahlias and more.

A Closer Look
A closer look at this bride's bouquet reveals a fun combination of dahlias, hydrangea, veronica, cymbidium orchids, golden yellow spray roses, acacia, lotus pods, monkey tails and more. The use of multiple textures, along with some dark brown accents, made this a truly unique bouquet.

A fun wedding
We got a call a couple weeks ago from Jessica, a really sweet girl in a bit of a bind. Her wedding was just two weeks away and her florist had turned out to be a bit of a flake. She asked if we were available and could do what she wanted: something fun, funky, wild and cool. Yes! She called the right place!
We used a lot of different textures and components to make things interesting. The boutonnieres were white dahlias, a gold-tipped pinecone, a few sprigs of acacia and a gold leaf. Having just a bit of yellow and gold really made everything just pop!
