  • Wishing in Crystal...

    Wishing trees are something that have become very popular in the last year. This brides tree was created with bleached manzinita branches in tall cylinders with crystals at the base and hung in the tree branches. The manzinita is a strong branch and is great for draping crystals, candles or holding an array of wishing cards. Her cake was a beautiful combination of white miniature garden roses,...

  • Oranges and Limes Anyone?

    There is something refreshing about bright colors paired with a fresh green. Green, although used mostly as a neutral can add energy and vibrance to other colors to truly make them pop.
