Ritz Carlton Wedding~ January 15th, 2011

Just wanted to share some photos from a wedding I did 2 weekends ago at The Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel. Mikele came to me and wanted very rich colors: burgundies and reds, with accents of pewter and greys for the linens and other decor. I love how the reds stand out against the more neutral pewter; it really makes the flower pop! We used Black Magic roses, black and red mini calla lilies, cymbidium orchids, james storie orchids, mokara orchids, and touches of crystals and rhinestones :). My favorite things were her bouquet and the pomander ball for the flower girl.

Anemones and Lace

Just picked up some anemones the other day at the mart and made some sample wedding flowers. Anemones are one of my favorite bulb flowers and I love the varieties that they come in (purples, whites with black centers, blues, reds, pinks, etc). I usually start seeing aneomes at the mart around the middle of fall and they usually last until middle of May. I also incorporated some lace and a brooch in the bouquet and centerpiece (thought it added a nice vintage touch :)

Flowers used: Hydrangea, scabiosa, ivory spray roses, dusty miller, anemones, succulents

Laguna Beach Private Residence Wedding~ November 20, 2010

Molly Snelson of Mathieu Photography just sent me a link to their blog which features photos of a wedding that I did back in November. Their photos are beautiful and really capture the rich colors in the flowers. I love the color palette and flowers that the bride, Maureen, wanted to use...Peach garden roses, orange rannunuclus, leonida roses, versilia peach roses, and olive branch accents.

"Style Me Pretty"

Here is a link to a wedding that I did back in June 2010 at The Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel. I was very excited when I found out that it was featured on the "Style Me Pretty Little Black Book Blog". I love checking out all of the featured weddings on this blog, they are all so unique and beautiful.

Viceroy Wedding~ December 4th, 2010

Just wanted to share some pictures of the last wedding I did for 2010. When the bride, Jenny, came to me and told me she was getting married at the Viceroy, Palm Springs I was very excited. I love this hotel and have been wanting to do a wedding here for years. The grounds and decor of this hotel are beautiful! I also love the flowers that Jenny wanted to use: white hydrangea, china mums, spider mums, rannunculus, anemones, white peonies, and roses. Here are some photos from the weddings...
