    I’m not usually a purple fan, but I do love these unique flowers in this terranium. I love this tea cup as a container! I love the muscari and veronica in here and how they add a little bit of unkemptness and movement to the arrangement. Checkered watering can? Adorable! Sweetpeas? Super adorable! Photos from top: 1.

  • My bestest friend is called Carly so I had an instant affinity to this bridal shoot when I saw it and found out the bride was called Carley (different spelling but same same.) The fact that it’s so damn cool is what makes it instantly blogable.

    Purple is one of the hottest colors this fall. Whether you go for a creamy lavender that acts as a warm neutral or a vivid berry to make a bold statement, purple is a terrific color to add interest to your wedding flowers. I especially like the trend of layering different pale hues of purple and pairing them with charcoal gray table accessories!

      I am caught up in the world of creativity on a day to day basis. Sometime, like all of us, I forget to take time to stop and smell the roses. Because I am also available for the saddest moments in life. I am reminded when my clients call on me for these services, that life is short and precious, like the fragile petals of the flowers that I love so much. I love the explanation of the dash in moments such as these. That we are born on a date, and we too die on a date. Between that date lies the dash that is our lives. It is the passion that we pursue and who we love in this time that makes o...

There's something about a beautiful freshly put together bouquet that makes me so happy.I am loving the different textures in this bouquet. I have no idea what the various leaves, berries and flowers are called. All I know is that they comprise a stunning bouquet.Wouldn't this make a stunning arrangement for a bridal shower? But, then again, you wouldn't want to upstage the bride-to-be! via this post on erin ever after ...

    Photo: Courtesy of Flour Confections This week's wedding cake comes to us from Flour Confections, located near Toronto. The three-tier confection features lemon and lavender cake with cassis buttercream and is topped with sugar flowers in a range of purple hues. To create the floral pattern on the tiers, petal shapes are handcut from purple fondant and arranged to create a three-dimensional effect. The result is bold, modern, and completely unexpected. —Heather Lee See more photos of beautiful wedding cakes in our Cakes Gallery. Also, find a wedding cake designer nea...
