Fantastic Fall

It's that time.  Fall is slowly turning into late fall and just ahead is Winter.  It's the time of year that weddings slow down and we start to focus on holiday flowers as December creeps closer.

Thanksgiving weekend was our last busy one of the year with three weddings in one day.  Our last multiple event weekend of the 2011 season went well and had us making some of our favorite pieces of the season.

First up was all white florals for Erin.  She went with white gerbs and white mini calla lilies for her and her maids.  We loved that she picked coloured stem wrap for both herself and her maids giving them an unexpected element.  She decided to go with bigger bouquets of one bloom instead of a mixed cluster which is a great way to get more bang for your buck. All her maids had nice big clusters of white gerbs and she herself went with 30 stems of mini callas for a good sized fist full of flowers!

Both Flower girls carried a mini gerb poesy with black wrap

Next up was Leah with subtle shades of light green and ivory paired with purple.
She decided that she would carry a larger version of her three maids so all the bouquets were matching.  With a later in the day start time, the guests were able to enjoy the ceremony followed immediately by a cocktail style reception.  Leah got to use her centerpieces to line the aisle during the ceremony which was a huge plus.

Mokara blooms, green hydrangea and Vandellas

Leah had us add a pendant to her stem wrap for a personal and sentimental touch.

And finally, Cheryl had a really unique accessory for her day.  The highlight of her floral package was the gourds added to her and her maids bouquets.


The bride carried black bacarra roses, red hypericum and lilies, folded aspidistra and leucadendron with gourds and curly willow


In contrast to the brides dark red blooms her three maids carried ivory blooms with brown accents.

Congratulations to all three of our beautiful brides. Thank you for choosing us to be a part of your day!  It was a pleasure!
