Last Weddings of the year!

We finished off 2011 with 2 weddings. The first was a pretty ivory and black wedding that had lots of sparkle added in. 

MJ and Bobby are actually friends of our and Liz was the MOH so we were very excited when they asked us to design their flowers.



The bride carried a mix of hydrangea, garden roses, spray roses, vandella roses and mini cymbidium orchids.  Her bouquet was highlighted with rope of vintage crystals and a sassy black bow.

Her four girls carried simplified clutches of hydrangea, garden roses and vandellas.

For the ceremony we added in two large floral accents that matched the pew bows.  A petal runner added some drama to the aisle.







Once the ceremony was done and the wedding party was off to take pictures we moved the large pieces to the brand spankin' new ballroom at the Raddison Hotel on Portage. 
The room had recently undergone a renovation and we happened to do the last wedding before the process and the first one after and let me tell you, what a difference!!!


The 23 guest tables had a 18"cylinder with white dendrobium orchids and submerged crystals placed in the center with surrounding tea lights for extra sparkle.

The head table got the royal treatment with elevated pomanders made of 60 vandella roses each, crystal votives and mint julep cups filled with garden roses and more vandellas!



Outside the room was the extra long guest table that had room for two different arrangements as well as their pretty guest book and presentation box.


A Purple Peony wedding wouldn't be complete without pretty bathroom flowers!

We have to thank Sterling Images (who captured the day for MJ and Bobby), The Raddison, Pam from Cake-ology and Sandy from Chair-ish your moments for all their help and hard work to make MJ's wedding so amazing for her!

For our second wedding we provided only the personal flowers for the wedding party and family of the couple. 
They wanted a "New Year's Eve explosion of sparkles" so we incorporated a ton of blue and gold accents that the Mother of the bride brought us.  I only have pictures of the brides bouquet (her 5 maids carried a smaller version) so I hope that they send us a few snaps once they get them back!!!
