  • Lavender Vanilla

    The fall always brings with it delicious fragrances. It seems to be the time of year where as you shop for the holidays you are greeted by warm and inviting aromas. Most include cinnamon, clove and pumpkins spices. But one of my favorite combinations, year round are mixtures of fresh herbs with vanilla.
    Here are a few of our October weddings where lavenders and rich plums took center stage.
    One of...

  • Bold Colors with Great Contrast

    The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center has a wide array of beautiful ballrooms. The ceremony pictured above is in The Glass, looking out over the water.

    The Emerald ballroom is also one of my favorites with it's tall...

    Each week the design changes, along with colors and types of flowers. We try to keep it interesting by creating multiple pieces and going super contemporary or doing the opposite and staying traditional with high impact...
  • Portrait Bouquets

    The fall is always a wonderful time to take bridal portraits outdoors. Things are usually still vibrant and colorful, but the weather has cooled down just enough to make walking around outside in the sun (in a stunning dress) much more enjoyable! Here are a few from this past weekend.

    We always recommend ordering a replica of what you will carry on your actual wedding day for your portraits. It...
  • Welcome Home

    What better way to welcome guests into your home than to have an abundance of fresh flowers in every room! What was even better about this home is that they had stunning antique vases that already coordinated with each room.
    We used a variety of peach, coral, green, pink and champagne tones to compliment the decor of their beautiful home. With full and luscious arrangements in just about every room...
