Navy dresses with ivory and blue blooms!

Pin It Now!

 Here's a lovely wedding in beautiful blues and creamy ivories! Enjoy these images, courtesy of DiMartino Photography. Navy dresses are so popular this year, and it's fun to see the variety of colors that girls choose for their flowers to accent this classic blue shade.

Loved her pretty blue cameo on the handle of the bouquet!
 











The reception was held at the always lovely and oh-so-romantic venue, The Stanley, in Lee's Summit. Love these lanterns that hung above the guest tables!

Susan and Shannon's Gorgeous Fall Wedding

Pin It Now!
Here's a lovely fall wedding that I have been really excited to share. This one was so much fun for me, because as a floral designer- I was able to look at this event from a creative perspective. How amazing to get to design two bridal bouquets at once, it's like a dream come true for me! We wanted them to coordinate, and yet reflect the personality of both brides, to feel unique to each woman. Two brides with their own style and spectacularly great taste? Bring it on!

The images are gorgeous, and their video (by One Tree Studio) is just a true testament to the love here. Please watch it (link below)- promise it will make you cry! :)

Go check it out- they were introduced by The KC Falcons Drum Corps at the entrance to their reception at Amigoni Winery, so much joy and so much fun! All other images are by photographer David Eulitt.

Blue September Wedding

Pin It Now!
Lovely shades of blue were so gorgeous for this September wedding! This bride chose to have an intimate ceremony in the courtyard at Church of the Resurrection (Leawood).





Lauren's bouquet was lovely- so soft, fragrant and romantic! Garden roses, delphinium, hydrangeas, ivy, and tweedia.



The reception, held at Loch Lloyd country club, was such a pretty event! Check out this gorgeous cake, and the lovely blue and white urns for centerpieces throughout the room!





Thanks so much to Rebecca Peters for providing these lovely images. Gorgeous as always!

Yellow flowers at Loose Mansion

Pin It Now!
Yellow... I love it so much. I have yellow accents throughout my house and even my front door is painted the perfect shade of yellow! It's one of my favorite colors and I love when brides choose it for their flowers! 

Taylor's wedding was filled with personal touches and lots (and lots!) of beautiful flowers. Her bridesmaids wore navy blue gowns and the yellow flowers just popped! Check out her gorgeous bouquet, filled with patience garden roses, freesia, snow berries, hydrangea, craspedia, lisianthus, stock, ranunculus and more:




 Below, our lovely bride, and the detail shot of her horseshoe (good luck!) pin-



Groom's boutonniere featuring yellow freesia, snowberries, and craspedia


 Love this shot of her sweet flower girls and their "wands"- one of her girls refused to wear shoes and this image is even cuter for that reason! Love.


Here are some of the ceremony and reception details. Loose Mansion has so many beautiful areas to decorate- they have lots of gorgeous pieces for their brides to take advantage of, and the mantles are my favorite! We used sunshiney-yellow, super fragrant sliced lemons- the smell was just divine.


 The bride's mom also collected tons of vintage milk glass- such a cute effect! 










 The bride and groom are doctoral candidates, studying in Africa. Obviously it's such a meaningful place for them, and they brought this detail in with these carved animals that the bride brought home from her travels.




  
Above, the amazing marriage certificate that is such a lovely keepsake! From the bride: "This picture is of the Quaker marriage certificate that all of our guests signed.  We had it made for us by Steven and Sharon Schwartz at Calligraphica.com. Barry's family is Quaker, so we decided to borrow this tradition and use the certificate in place of a guestbook. The certificate has sunflowers to represent my Kansas roots, Celtic knots to represent Barry's home country, and berries and hydrangea since these were in my bouquet. We now have the certificate framed and hanging on our living room wall."
