The sweetest first looks as Marilyn walked down the aisle last Friday!

What is your preference: first look before the ceremony or as the bride walks down the aisle?

I have a wedding tomorrow, so today feels like Friday. I almost captioned this post HAPPY FRIDAY!! 😂

I’ll be busy making bridesmaid bouquets and getting other florals ready tonight. I’ll share some sneak peeks in my stories with you. This wedding has a really pretty color palette of dusty rose, blush and white.

It’s all in the details to create the perfect tablescape.

Things to consider when putting together your wedding tables:
Unique silverware
Textured charger
Flowing table runner
Custom stationary
Antique cups
Colorful taper candles
And of course, stunning florals

Some weeks I’m cruising along and everything is easy and other weeks I can’t even get on the bike 😂 this week has been the latter.

If you haven’t already heard about the current flower shortage, go to my story for information directly from one of my wholesalers. If you are having a wedding, here are some things you can do to make sure you get wedding flowers you love.

-Book your florist ASAP.
-Be open to a color palette and not necessarily certain types of flowers.
-Make sure to book a florist whose style you LOVE. We may not be able to guarantee a certain variety of flower, but if you like a florist’s style, you should like what they make no matter what flowers come in.
-Be kind, understanding and supportive of your florist and florist friends. I want nothing more than to produce the wedding flowers of your dreams and with a little bit of creative freedom I still can!

Cheers to the first day of Fall 🍂 The weather gets cooler and the floral color palettes get a little darker and moodier. So much to love!

Fall is definitely my favorite season. From the cool weather, college football (Go Tigers!) and changing leaves, I wish it lasted longer.

Let me know if you want to join me on a hike! I need to get to the mountains soon 😁

The way that these two look at each other 😍 I really enjoy getting to know my couples and learning more about their love story and hearing how excited they are to marry their best friend! When I see engagement or wedding photos where I can feel the love and excitement, it puts a HUGE smile on my face.

She’s not a regular bride. She’s a cool bride!

I love getting pictures like the second one from my brides after the wedding. That is how I know they had a great time!! Laurel had me make this beautiful flower crown that she rocked all night long when they went out with friends after the wedding.

Also, shout out to Grace at Alabaster Studio for hosting my last class at her beautiful studio and taking these behind the scenes videos because I always forget to 🤦🏻‍♀️

Did anyone else stay up to watch the full finale last night and then couldn’t wake up on time this morning 🙋🏻‍♀️ I have to say The Bachelorette is my guilty pleasure tv show that I have to watch. Although I wasn’t expecting the ending, I was definitely here for the bromances this season.

I feel like we usually talk about the bride squad but the groomsmen don’t get the attention they deserve. Always there to have a good time and help the groom have a relaxing beginning to the wedding day. Although I’m not a wedding planner, and I don’t have to wrangle them and keep them on schedule, so you all might have other opinions!

This is what collaboration looks like when a shared vision comes to life…SO DREAMY! When we started talking about doing a lingerie portion for this styled shoot, I thought about what skills and ideas could I bring that would enhance the idea. I imagined the model being enveloped in flowers, creating a more delicate and romantic vibe. With all of our talents and ideas brought together, I don’t think it could have turned out anymore perfect.

I like to do the same things with my brides. Hear your vision for your florals on your wedding day, look at your venue for inspiration and add my ideas to make the most perfect and beautiful wedding florals of your dreams!

The daintiest flower crown 😊 I have been working on a bunch of flower crowns lately and have been enjoying mixing up the styles.

Do you want to know a secret?

This design was supposed to be completely different until I showed up on wedding day and realized the rental house layout was different than everyone thought. I had planned to have flowers going up a deck column, I had built a mechanic to have the flowers go across over head and brought draping to go behind the couch.

So what did I do when I was 3.5 hours away from home with only the supplies in my car? I improvised, got creative and worked with what I had to make one of my all time favorite installs. I think it turned out even better than the original design!

07/23/2021

Come see me at Farmhouse 221 in Chapin tomorrow (July 24) from 10 am - 1 pm for a pop up flower bar. We will also be serving up mimosas and charcuterie.

I’ll post some of the beautiful flowers I’m bringing on my story later today. So be on the lookout for that!

Collaborating with brides to make their floral vision come to life is one of the things I enjoy most about being a florist. Laurel knew she wanted the main focus at the reception to be the beautiful farm tables . It was a last minute decision to add the gauze table runners and I am SO glad we did. They completed the look and added an element of whimsy as the ends floated in the breeze.

I want to give a big CONGRATULATIONS to all of the couples who have gotten engaged over the past few weeks! I have seen lots of exciting engagements in my newsfeed over the 4th of July weekend and this past weekend.
