Lauren's Wedding on Friday, August 13, 2010 at Lucien's Manor

Lauren's Wedding on Friday was GORGEOUS!!! We decorated Pitman UMC, which has AWESOME natural light, with these 2 large urns filled with hybrid delphinium, curly willow, roses, hydrangeas, and gerberas. The aisle were decorated with white hydrangeas and we draped long white tulle and tiffany blue satin ribbons with long crystals. These gave a hint of what was to come for the reception!

We decorated the Venetian Ballroom at Lucien's Manor with these gorgeous centerpieces! All of the tables were high glass pilsner vases filled with aqua gems and a tiffany blue LED light and I know these looked amazing once the sun went down!!! We draped lots of crystals from the top of the flowers and designed the top of the vases with hydrangeas, roses, gerberas, dahlias, freesias, and delphiniums. Crystals sprinkled on the mirrors finished the look and this room looked awesome when we walked out! Even the owner of Lucien's Manor was showing another couple the room and they were all really impressed!

Sara's Wedding at Bellevue State Park August 7, 2010

Sara's flowers were so pretty! Her colors were white and cobalt, so we did some contrasting gold and purple with bright blue hydrangeas. White cymbidium orchids broke up the color and also made a great flower for the groom to wear!

The ceremony took place at the Friends Meeting House at Bellevue State Park in Wilmington, Delaware. It was really close by and looked like a great place to visit with the baby on a sunny weekend! Sara wanted something really simple for the ceremony. Since there was a lot of yellow light coming in from the stained glass windows, the flowers didn't compete with anything in the room, but helped reflect the yellow. A simple garland with greenery and white dendrobium orchids draped the front railing and 2 cylinders with floating candles made up a memorial table. Thanks so much and congratulations Sara! I loved working with you and your mom!

Maggie and Richard's Wedding on July 31, 2010 in Cape May

A very excited groom minutes before the ceremony!

Maggie looked beautiful walking with her dad!

Mt. Vernon Beach is a great spot for an intimate wedding!

Gorgeous Antique Amnesia Roses are still an awesome choice for bride's who like a warm lavender!

 Thank you guys so much for letting us watch you tie the knot! Your wedding was beautiful! The release of the doves was super cool and you guys looked so happy together! Congratulations!

Running Deer Bridal Show Highlights July 18, 2010

This summer's recent bridal show at Running Deer was a great show with a lot of new brides! I already have some bookings for next year from it, so I consider it a success. One of the things we introduced were our black iron chandeliers, which we hung one from the outside purgola. We have 3 of these that are available for rent. This is one of three styles of chandeliers that I am offering for weddings. The other 2 styles are very shabby chic with crystals and I will unveil them as soon as I take a photo that I am happy with. They are too awesome!

We hung mason jars from aqua wire and aqua satin from sheppard's hooks along the aisle. I used bright purple hydrangeas, gold gerberas, and fabulous Free Spirit roses. I love these roses!

Jenn and Mike's 4 Year Anniversary!

I can't believe it's been 4 years! Jenn and I went to high school together and continued our friendship all through college while I attended school in Delaware, and she attended school in North Jersey. She met and married Mike, and 2 adorable babies later, they are as happy as can be! Please enjoy some photos from her wedding. I did all the bouquets but since I was also IN the wedding and lived over 2 hours away, doing the tables might have been a challenge. The centerpieces below are done by Romantic Garden in Morristown, NJ. Sue was so sweet and I really enjoyed meeting with her. Now she is one of my mentors in the art of floral design!

All the guys wore red Freedom roses with silver wire instead of tape for a more edgy, still romantic feel. Yes, a boutounniere can be romantic.

The happy couple!

Jenn's bouquet was made of only red Freedom roses and I tucked in lots of clear crystals on silver wire.

All of us girls wore red in a different style. My dress was sooooooo comfy! We carried bouquets of solid ivory Vendella roses to contrast against our dresses.

Sue is just too awesome! Congrats again guys!!!!!!!! Your wedding was a blast! I really loved dancing the night away with my hubby!!! Love you guys!

Scott and Anna's Wedding on July 17, 2010

I LOVED THESE FLOWERS! Scott wore white ranunculus blooms with a hint of maidenhair fern, which is my favorite greenery! We added a hint of black and white damask ribbon over the stem. 

This was one of my favorite set ups! I took everything to Terranova, a super hip Italian place in Sewell, NJ. Every place setting had a small vase of flowers, or a tealight hugged by hydrangea blooms. So cute!

Ashley's Wedding on July 16, 2010

Can you say Glitz? Ashley's Bouquet had it for sure! LOVED IT!!!

  

The church was decorated with 2 HUGE arrangements filled with

tall hybrid delphinium, hydrangeas, lilies, and roses. We added hybrid delphinium blooms around the base of her unity candle. This wedding was so pretty! We dropped off her all white centerpieces at Lucien's in Berlin afterwards and they looked so elegant in the ballroom!

Diana's Wedding on July 16, 2010

I had a blast doing Diana's flowers for her wedding at The Flander's Hotel in Ocean City. The colors were bright and vibrant and perfect for a beach wedding! I can't wait to see the professionals! Here is a sampling of what we did, Enjoy!

 

We used dahlias, roses, callas, ranunculus, and hypericum 

berries, along with some pretty diamond and pearl accents that added.

We added Diana's dress fabric over the stems of her dress and wrapped the satin with the extra beading from her dress, along with some applique's left over from her dress alterations. She was so excited to have those extra touches!

 

The men wore button dahlia's from one of my favorite local sources.
