    The ceremony was at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center, outdoors on the Forest Deck, while the reception was in The Glass ballroom (one of my favorites!) For the centerpieces...

     Here are just a few snapshots of some of the weddings we did in November. Featured above was a gorgeous ceremony set up with a beautiful white 100 foot aisle runner framed with glowing lanterns and mixed rose petals.

  • A Weekend Marathon... part 1

    There is something magical about the fall, but at the while time seems to disappear at an increasingly rapid pace. The beautiful weather is the perfect setting for outdoor weddings. I'm sure many of us would love to have been married or would love to get married on a beautifully non-humid day where the temperatures linger around 70 degrees. While not all of us have that luxury, on October 16th we...
  • 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.
    We used a combination of a few different designs for the table centerpieces. One of our most popular tall arrangements is a natural all around design atop our fluted vase. This type of arrangement can be done in any...
  • Textural Interest with Vibrant colors

    Some brides just take your breath away, and this was a weekend full of them. Sam was such a sweet natured and well rounded lady. I loved her vibrant personality which we echoed in her flowers. Funky but natural, textural yet coordinating, rich and vibrant. Sam's bouquet was in a more natural handtied style I call a sprial handtied. It's made in the european fashion where it can literally stand on...
  • Pink Pastel Peonies

    We always love hearing from our brides after the wedding. Especially when the event was so memoriable. Often times we find ourselves falling in love with a color pallet or design scheme. This was one of those events, and to my surprise I opened my inbox this morning to find this sweet note:

    "Thanks again for your beautiful work. I absolutely LOVED all the flowers!"

Blue is a wonderful color, and with it's cooling properties, during the blazing hot summer it can actually help to physically cool you down, kind of neat, huh! This blushing bride and her bridal party sported a soft...
