Timeless Southern Wedding at The Willcox

There are few trees more southern than the magnolia. Our bride wanted a timeless and classic look with some of her favorite blossoms. These are one of the few flowers I will use a high-quality silk substitute for, because they wilt nearly immediately upon being cut from the tree. We can’t even order them wholesale, for that reason!

We ended up marrying the silk stems with a variety of crisp white blooms to tie it together. I used fresh magnolia and camellia foliage to add a warm, rich green to the flowers. It was a perfectly timeless look for a fall wedding in Aiken.

Anniversary Wedding at the Old Medical College

When your workplace has plans that don’t coincide with your wedding plans, you get the paperwork done and celebrate later, just as these two did! Almost exactly a year later, this sweet couple was able to pull off a wonderful wedding celebration at the original venue after relocating states away.

One of my favorite parts of the wedding was accenting the existing fountain and stairwells at the ceremony location with florals. I love using existing architecture in our wedding designs. You chose that venue for a reason, right? Let’s flower it! The gallery is below for this traditional southern wedding at the Old Medical College in Augusta.

I N G R E D I E N T S

“Kiera” garden roses, blush and white spray roses, white ranunculus, light blue hydrangea, ivory “vendela” roses, olive leaf, Italian ruscus, smilax vine, and eucalyptus varieties.

Chinoiserie Editorial

Something blue, steal my heart! This was a wonderful collaboration of southern style last month in North Augusta. My favorite part is the gazebo installation. It’s no secret that we have a natural and organic style, so what could be better than building a flower meadow as a backdrop for your ceremony?!

I couldn’t share these photos without giving a shoutout to all of the local women-led businesses that pulled this together. Please do me a favor and check them out!

Equestrian Bridal Styled Shoot

A styled shoot at a premier equestrian facility in Aiken, sign me up! This shoot took an entire day and full team of vendors. The day was broken up into 4-5 “mini” photoshoots to showcase a variety of styles and areas available for use at Stable View Farm. This shoot was also published in Southern Bride Magazine! It was a great accomplishment for all of us after months of planning and coordination.

The GORGEOUS gallery is below.

Star blush spray roses, leucadendron, silver dollar and seeded eucalyptus, sword and leather leaf fern, “patience” cream garden roses, white astrantia, lisianthus, snapdragon, and Veronica, chocolate Queen Anne’s lace, and more!
