Vibrant Red Valentine's Dinner

Meadow arrangements, but make ‘em red! We love how vibrant and fun these arrangements turned out. Low runners are becoming more and more popular for rectangular tables at weddings and events. The whole room was perfectly designed for an evening valentine’s party!

A Surprise Proposal at the Gazebo

A surprise proposal?! Be still, my heart! Those close to me know that I was proposed to in a car… a smart car… driving across Arizona after Christmas. It was not planned out and romantic, it was a conversation in a really tiny and enclosed space. Anyway, it all worked out and I’m just melting over these photos!

Plum and pink helleborus, white tulips and stock flower, pink sweet peas, and a whole ‘lotta love.

Valentine's Portrait Session

Some of my favorite local wedding vendors came together nearly a year ago to put on a styled portrait session. This shoot was inspired by valentine’s day and it was nothing but fun! It only seems fitting to share as we are only 6 days away from the annual day of love. Enjoy the gallery below and go hug a florist (or give them a distanced high five) - we need it!

Blush clooney ranunculus, pink heather, dianthus (the green Lorax-looking thing), hot pink mini carnations, ivory spray roses, and abelia foliage.

"Girl's Night Out" Styled Shoot

Oh, what fun this was! It’s always a treat to be involved in collaborations that aren’t strictly wedding-related. A girl’s night out at Marion Hatcher Center? Uhm, yes please, where do I sign up? Ohhh you mean you just want me to do the flowers…? Ok, I’m cool with that, too!

This was such a great collaboration between local businesses, which (I just have to add) all happen to be woman-owned &/or operated. The venue was perfection, models were b-e-a-utiful, organization was top-notch, and the photos are gorgeous! I hope you enjoy viewing the full set-up as much as I enjoyed putting all the blooms in those cute little golden, geometric shapes.

Leucadendron, seeded eucalyptus, olive leaf, spray roses + roses, carnation, wax flower, dried craspedia + yarrow, and home grown dusty miller
