    Hey!!! Just wanted to send out an update on our flowers, Jared and I met up with our planners Emily and Matt at Flower Patch to preview our centerpieces.  Let me just tell you, they are amazing! Bonnie did such a great job, she listened to us and put together a great replica of what we wanted. So this is the picture, we are changing a couple of the colors to add more white and are going to make it more airy so it’s not so bunched together. That is what’s great about Bonnie she really works with you and gives you so many options to make it look exactly like you want. I know they are going...

    The second in our 5 F's series - the beautiful flowers and decor, I usually clump these into the same category. The decor can really set the mood for the whole event, you can have a soft and romantic ceremony with all white on white colors, and a fun and bright ceremony. Or just stay with the same idea throughout. Either way, flowers and decor can really make it moody.Flowers and Decor are typically 10% of the budget, can can go up-up-up if you are looking for something very specific or it can go down if you are looking for a simple minimalistic look.Most people have a vision of the type of lo...

    There are so many things to think about when planning your wedding and one of my top favorites is picking the flowers.  Flowers are so beautiful & they can add just the special touch you need for an elegant, playful, or simple wedding, which ever you prefer. Here are some of my favorite flowers for weddings: Roses have always been a favorite of mine.  I love how they smell & look and they always add a special elegant touch to a wedding. Photo by: Swensen Photography I absolutely love tulips.  Maybe that is one reason I got married in April because the tulips were out in full bloom....

  • I’m currently in the hunt for a florist for our wedding in September (OMG almost 6 months to go?!) but I have to admit I’m kind of wishy-washy about what I actually want. My first route (to save some money) was to just have the florist do the bouquets, guys’ boutonnieres and our parents’ corsage/boutonnieres and I would DIY the centerpieces. Even with the help of Google Images and Pinterest, I can’t find something “non-flowery” that catches my eye without being boring. Then, I tried to find simple fake/silk flower centerpieces that would be easy to m...

      Traditionally flower girls toss pedals as they walk down the aisle before the bride makes her entrance. Today there are many different flower options that don’t include the traditional toss. Pomander Ball:  These are a great option if your venue does not allow for pedals to be tossed. The pomander balls can include flowers from the bride and bridesmaids bouquet. Little girls will love carrying the purse like flower arrangement. Headpiece: Create a cute headpiece out of fresh flowers for the flower girl. This is a great option if the flower girls are really young and might not be able...
