    Brunch, Lunch and Dinner! We did it all this year and had fun with the GORGEOUS cherry blossom that we got in. Blooming branches just scream spring!
    One of the events had a white and yellow color scheme and so we thought it would be fun to use tulips, gerbera daisies and yellow button poms. To help elongate our tablescapes we used some of our silver votive cups with one fun tulip sticking right out...

    We had another fabulous event at The Club at Carlton Woods on March 12th for the Shook family. They celebrated all night long!

The bridal bouquet was a combination of roses, ranunculus, lisianthus and miniature garden...

    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,...
