Kristin & Chris

This bride is a dear cousin of mine, the wedding was in late October, so I was not able to "hunt & gather" flowers from outside. However, the flowers turned out great and the bride was very happy with them. Her colors were eggplant and accented it with a lime green. However we also used roses in different shades of purple to catch the eye.

Tall centerpiece at the reception. She decided to cut costs by only having flowers on 1/3 of the tables and used candles and sticks with gems for the other 2/3. This arrangement consists of roses, lilies, orchids, bells of ireland, and various accent flowers.

The father of the brides boutonniere. A simple rose with wax flowers as accents.

The groomsman's boutonniere. Orchid, with a rose bud. A great way to tie in the purple. Because eggplant is generally difficult to match with flowers, utilizing shades of purple helps!




This is the arrangement used in the church. A big beautiful arrangement that mimics the centerpieces at the reception but on a much grander scale.
The bridesmaids bouquets all bunched up. The bride wanted the bridesmaids bouquets to be more white than purple and pink, and hers would be the opposite.


An up close shot of the brides bouquet. Lots of different textures and flowers. Roses, poms, orchids, wax flower, hypericum berries, and various accent foliage.

Placing the finishing touch on the bouquet.
