Waiting on the professional photos from , but this little insta sneak of hers from yesterday captures the day so well - so much love and joy with, and for, M and N.

How many of us can say that Eddie Vedder is a fan? ❤️🌸❤️🌸

This is now a Teddy and Dahlia fan account. You’re welcome.

Stay tuned long enough and I’m sure the regular professional-photographed floral content will reappear. And while beautiful, that’s truly only a tiny fraction of the story. It’s all the bits and bobbles outside of the frame, and before the edit, that make the moment matter.

As Teddy says “we’re coming in hot” with the gorgeous locally grown dahlias for this weekend of events.

Here is the one tiny lone little peony that escaped the ravenous deer in my yard. I don’t think I’ll be a flower farmer any time soon.

When your love language is peonies…and the husband spies the fresh bundles at Trader Joe’s while out on a grocery run.

This exact day in April feels like the right time to deconstruct my January 1st wedding arch.

Happy International Women's Day from this lady.

“Here's to strong women. May we know them, may we raise them, may we be them."

I don’t often think of myself as strong. But if I look at who raised me, who I surround myself with, how I’m encouraging my daughter, and what I am accomplishing - I suppose I am.

Flowers - especially those picked out and arranged by tiny little helpers - always have a place.

Happy Sunday y’all.

“The one thing we can never get enough of is love. And the one thing we never give enough of is love.” Henry Miller

Palentine. Galentine. Valentine. Whatever your -entine, know that you are loved.

“Heavy is the crown and yet she wears it as if it was a feather.
There is strength in her heart,
determination in her eyes, and the will to survive resides within her soul.
She is you.
A warrior,
a champion,
a fighter,
a queen.”

R.H. Sin

Happy Galentine’s Day, lady loves.

Little event delivery days. ❤️🌸

Here’s a little wedding trick.

Find a florist who makes neat and sweet little boutonnières and floral pocket squares.

And then find an event coordinator who knows where said florist hid the extra boutonnières for a little pre-dinner switcheroo (and will pin them on you while providing witty banter).

Ooooh. You found that person. It’s me. And I’ve got you covered.
