A few of my favorite things...

As I was looking through previous Galleries, I found this file and was reminded of why it is that I love working with flowers. They grow with sunshine, dirt and water. They decide when and how they will bloom and each petal or leaf is slightly different than the one next to it. There is a magic about each and every piece that once combined is simply Magic.

This Wedding was one in which I worked extra hard and put in twice as many hours because it just happened to be full of a few of my favorite things...

               Succulents, Pincushion Protea, Liquid Amber, Circus Roses and Eggplant Calla lilies.

Thank you Alisha and Jim Savage. I love your style and I am reminded of why 

these remain some of my favorite things. 

Plus... the couple chose to take pictures in front of this old barn, which was across the road. And ...                                         Wow. A perfect backdrop for these beautiful photos.

Thank you to Zorn Photography for capturing all these detail shots. 

A lovely day in September

 This past September two of our favorite souls Promised Forever at one of our favorite Wedding Venues. Josie and Jaime's Wedding at The White Ranch was Absolutely Perfect. The White Ranch was the perfect spot to coordinate with their unique style. There was texture everywhere.

 The boutonnieres were made of craspedia balls, stellata pods, kangaroo paw and succulents.

 The bouquet was comprised of succulents grown with love at Just This Ranch, dusty miller, craspedia balls, dahlias, stellata pods, kangaroo paw and pincushion protea.

 Jaime wore a beautiful dress and veil...

 And Josie also wore a beautiful dress. They both looked stunning.

 The tables were clothed with white linens and burlap runners. There were potted succulents and recycled bottled filled with lush blooms and unique textures.

 It was a romantic ceremony followed by a fabulous party. These two were made for each other!
It was so much fun to create for them. Love Them. Love their Style. Love These Photos.

And.... just one more photo of these precious little succulents. I went a little crazy over them. They were just too cute!

Another Wedding Season...

As I begin to prepare for another busy Wedding Season, I can't help but look back on the past year. Here are a few bouquets that show the wide range of color and style of the events we created for...

And this Season will be just as Unique and Beautiful!

My new friends... Succulents

 I admit it...   I used to be afraid of them. They were different than I was used to. They didn't crave Full Sun or Large glasses of water, Like I do. I even smothered a few in the beginning, with Too Much Attention.

 But, as is everything else along this journey, we call Life, I spent some time getting to know them and what they needed to survive and now we are friends.

And oh what they ad to my creations!
