Read MoreMonochromatic color palettes are becoming more popular in weddings. For this intimate August wedding in Jackson, Wyoming, the bride drew inspiration from the many colors of summertime berries. The rich hues of Mulberry, Raspberry, Strawberry, and Black Currant became the focus of this rich and vibrant color scheme for the bridal party flowers and the reception bud vase florals in modern glass vessels.
I loved everything about working with these colors as they were the perfect tie-in to my late-summer flower garden offerings! The florals used were rich with Dahlias, Calla Lilies, Amaranthus, and Astrantia. The eye was also drawn to the subtle pops of blush Roses and Dahlias to help lift the color palette and brighten it just a bit. The bridal hair comb and Flowergirl crown were the perfect creations to complete the look!
Read MoreJackson, WY is a popular location for couples who are looking to elope and it’s popularity really grew this year due to COVID- 19. The couple featured in the images below did an amazing job of facing the struggles of needing to change their wedding plans, recovering from an injury and becoming the only people at their wedding!
They persevered through it all and had a great day at the park and surrounding National Forest, even throwing together a last-minute picnic under the “Wedding Tree” to celebrate! Did I mentioned I was invited to join in that celebration?! Such a joy that day was for us all. It held some sense of normalcy and the human ability to adapt and thrive.
Read MoreOkay, let’s face it…I really didn’t like the dried flower trend in the 80’s and early 90’s that I found all over the craft fairs BUT I really do LOVE the new comeback that dried flowers are currently having as a wedding flower trend!
Read MoreAnyone who spends any amount of time with me will soon discover that autumn is hands-down my favorite time of the year. When I was asked to create something using just dried flowers/foliage/grasses from the farm I was SO excited because dried flowers and grases are a true love of mine, especially in the fall. This elopement styled shoot was a great collaboration with a warm color palette of golden mustards, rust, and plum. So yummy to the eyes!
Read MoreI do believe, that for me, second to wedding florals is the wedding cake! Any wedding or styled shoot can be taken to “the next level” by having a jaw-dropping, gorgeous or unexpected wedding cake. Today more than ever before there are so many talented cake bakers that are truly cake artists for the fine detail work and artistry they pull together!
Read MoreI thought it would be fun to show some behind the scenes photos of the process of making a bouquet. These photos showcase all locally grown product from our farm during an autumn photoshoot! The colors range from bold to muted tones so this was a different and fun creative bouquet to design.
Read MoreNot many brides choose to get married March through May but I hope that this post will inspire some to change their mind about a June wedding. Spring florals are so unique and they only last for a short period of time. I loved being able to create this “secret garden” experience back in March with the lovely and special additions of Magnolia budding branches, Tulips, and Hellebores. All of these are excellent examples of rare spring beauties not found outside of this season!
