September Flowers

 One of my very best friends got married this past weekend up in the mountains of Vermont and I spent the week up there with her, playing with flowers, sipping bubbly, and breathing in that fresh mountain air. It was a foggy and cold week, but it didn't damper anyone's spirits. In fact it was one of the best, most love filled weddings I have ever been to and felt so lucky to be a part of it all!  Designing florals for this particular wedding was very near and dear to my heart, and the florals we chose were out of this world.

The Not Wedding Boston

A little while back we shared that we participated in the 1st Boston Not Wedding {a unique bridal show alternative in the form of a fake wedding}  It was the first Bridal Show that we have showcased at, and I have to say I truly enjoyed the experience. As a vendor it was so energizing to chat with tons of brides who were  so excited for their upcoming nuptials and a wonderful reminder of why we do this whole thing!  I am thrilled to share that this event and our designs have been featured over on Ruffled today!  I'm sharing a few of our favorite snippets from the event here but make sure to check out the feature to see more from the day and loads of other talented vendors in the Boston area.

A September Wedding at Moraine Farm

This sneek peak from Stacie Kirkwood Photography has me so excited to see the entire gallery!  I loved that my bride wasn't afraid to choose soft blush florals for a September Wedding.  You don't have to let the season dictate your style, it's OK to just be your self and choose what you love! We used lots of seasonal blooms including Dinner Plate Dahlias, Pee Gee Hydrangea, and Fragrant blooming Mint.  Also in the mix were lush Garden Roses, Astilbe, and Hellebore.

 Head on over to Stacie's blog to see the rest of the beautiful images she shared!

In the Studio: Piano Garden Roses

We created this pretty little arrangement this week using a favorite late summer bloom : the Piano Garden Rose.  I just love its  bright but moody ruby hue, the perfect shade as we leave summer and head to fall.

A Poppy Red Wedding

I'm finally getting around to blogging about the florals I created for a wedding last month at the New Seabury Country Club on Cape Cod.  My couple was as sweet as could be and I was lucky to also have been a guest because it was an incredible event! The florals were designed using colors ranging from cream to peach to vivid poppy to complement the bridesmaids striking red dresses.  Don't you just love the color combination?  The gorgeous bride's something borrowed was her grandmother's rosary and you can see a hint of  it wrapped around the stems of her bouquet.  All images were captured by the talented Caitlin of  Photography by Caitlin.
