Featured on Green Wedding Shoes

5 days and counting until full on wedding production begins - with events every week until december. Yikes! I hope we all survive. I'm excited and nervous, at the same time and VERY anxious to be surrounded by all my old friends. Flowers. They are lovely little creatures.
Next week I will have my first shipment of garden roses come in. What a thrill to unwrap and drop these in a drink of fresh water.
I wanted to share a few images that were recently featured on Green Wedding Shoes of one of our March brides- Laurie. Stephanie Williams captured this chic LA wedding so beautifully. To see Jen's full feature on this wedding click here. Hope you all enjoy!

Bride and Bloom Feature

I am so lucky. I get to work with nice, talented people, make beautiful flowers, have a lovely family - not to rub it in, but I'm feeling good right now! (Wait till my season really kicks in...by mid may my posts may not be so glowing - if I have time to do any that is!)
Feast your eyes on this fun shoot I did awhile back with Brooke Keegan for Bride and Bloom Magazine. Photographed by Aaaron Delesie - the pictures speak for themselves. Aside from the flowers, I brought in some vintage art deco ring boxes, vintage dinner plates, the lace runner for the table, lots of fun turquoise hobnail pieces. Hope you enjoy it- and if you pick up the most recent issue of Bride and Bloom you can see the full article there.

Sonya weds!

Just a little taste of some of the gorgeousness we made up for Sonya and Douglas' wedding. A truly magical event coordinated by my dear friend Rebecca of Duet Weddings. (Genius woman!) Lots of pretty details to come when I receive the photos from Isabel Lawrence. Another fine talent.

I'll tell you more about it all then...In the meantime enjoy these lovely fleurs!

Random Lovliness

Here are some random lovelies I have been saving up for a rainy day...and guess what?!!! That day has come, and it is actually raining here A LOT. Which just mean the flowers this season are going to be out of this world. Yippee.
Lots of good things happening here that I can't wait to share at the right time - so stay tuned.
Hint...(Jessica Claire's workshop images - that we styled with the ever so talented Rebecca Stone of Duet Weddings)
Hint...(BIG- THE biggest wedding mag in the industry may have photographed little old me for a featured piece)
Hint...(Gorgeous hollywood hills wedding featuring my first ever - victorian style, cascading bouquet)

and there's more but let's get to the pictures of my random lovelies shall we?

The little blonde thing is undoubtedly by most beautiful creation!

Andrea's Flowers

So things have been a little busy here of late...gearing up for an amazing 2010 season. Which actually already started. Hence, the lack of blog posts. All my time in front of the computer lately has been dedicated to making up bids/proposals/inspiration boards/ and returning emails. Yada Yada Yada. So boring for you to read, I know! SO let's get straight to some flowers that I have not had the chance to post.

Andrea was my last bride of 2009...and she was lovely. The day was lovely...everything was perfect. Even was able to catch a little after set-up drink with my hubby at the hotel afterward! Love that.

These are a few shots from the studio before all was packed up and ready to go. I little more modern than my usual take on flowers - but fun none the less.
I have to say that the most rewarding response to a bridal bouquet ever happened when Andrea saw her bouquet - she started tearing up and had to calm herself down so she wouldn't ruin her makeup. Flowers will do that to you!
