Crystal and Mike

I was honored to be recommended to Crystal and Mike by Ashley of Stargazer Weddings. I would recommend Ashley and Melissa over and over and over again for anyone looking to hire a wedding coordinator. Which, I absolutely recommend. I wish I would have had at the very least, a day of coordinator myself. Thank you ladies for the referral to such a wonderful couple!

The main color of this wedding was 'spring' orange with pops of white and green. The ceremony was held at the Brooks Hill Historic Church off NW Skyline. I think the most perfect little wedding church I've ever been to! It is beautifully quaint and intimate. Gorgeous! The reception was at Wilfs Restaurant. This place is amazing. First of all, its attached to the Union Station. So classy and maybe even a little old school. I had a blast taking pictures, so I'll let those do the talking...

Congrats Crystal and Mike!!!

April and Alex

I met April and Alex through the gorgeous Pacific Crest Grand Ballroom. What a beautiful couple! April wanted to bring their accent watermelon color in with flowers. One of the things that stuck with me after meeting with April was 'simple elegance.' Here are a few shots of the 'spring watermelon' collection April and I designed and I had the pleasure of making. I'm on pins and needles to see pro photos of this wedding! I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the doors to the ballroom. I'm never surprised that the space looks incredible, it just takes on a totally new 'persona' with every event. I feel honored every time I get to do an event there! Breathtaking space! I promise to post pictures when I get them!

Fliptography

Yesterday I had a cup of tea with Michael from Fliptography. What an awesome concept! They take a 7 second video clip and turn it into a flip book. Forget boring favors, wouldn't this be a great way for your guests to remember your event? You can customize the cover and your guests customize their own visual 'message.' Ditch the monogrammed votive holders and the gross easter egg looking candies and give your guests a true memento with both your event 'stamp' and their personality. Michael is absolutely hilarious, down to earth and incredibly professional! So start thinking about how you're going to 'pose' during your 7 seconds of fame, and give Michael Reed a call right away. Happy flipping...

Tribute arrangements

Here are a few pictures of tribute arrangements I've done in the past. There are no 'fillers' in my world...

Mardi Gras!

I know, I'm a few days late with a Mardi Gras post. I had a friend tell me that this arrangement reminded her of being in the French Quarter in the middle of Mardi Gras. Here's hoping everyone had a fabulous time on Tuesday... Cheers!

Saturated color!

I was talking with a bride today about saturated color. THIS is what I mean by saturated color... Deep, bright, contrasting and complimentary all at the same time!

Happy Valentine's Day

In honor of Valentine's Day, here are a few shots of red arrangements. I hope everyone has a wonderful day full of lots of love! Maybe even a few proposals... :)
