The Szajnars ✨
Madeline and Matt got married at Saint Clements Castle in Portland CT. Their wedding was elegant, airy and soft with soft shades of sand, blush, and whites.
Their ceremony decor consisted of pedestals at the alter in the Sunken Garden at the castle of an airy selection and chair flowers on the isle chairs. As for the reception that was antique glass vases of stunning focal blooms with candles. Truly a romantic night!
The Krulls might have had a rain on their December wedding, but it was nothing but class and many tears of joy. Mikayla and Kristopher were wed at The Garrison in Garrison NY.
Dark shades of reds were a perfect look for this winter wedding as well as the elegance of white flowers scattered throughout with hints of greenery and candles. This night was filled with romance and love.

Fun, Vibrant Raspberry Wedding was location at Mystic Hilton for MK and Mike. Their love for arcades was incorporated by some fun light up decor. Their centerpieces had bubbles inside that were illuminated by fairy lights giving a really "neon" effect, how fun!
We added pink pampas grass stems into the tall centerpieces for some personality and flare. Overall, it was a fun wedding and experience we got to be a part of.

Let's talk Bridal Party! 💐
Planning your wedding is a big task with many decisions, options, costs, etc. but choosing your bridal party SHOULD be one of the easier tasks. The number of people standing by your side on your special day should be the least of your concerns. what matters the most are the people and what they bring to your life.
You want true relationships and friendships by your side during this journey. You want to be able to look at those memories and feel joy and happiness on how all your wedding events were fulfilled. You want to be able to enjoy all those events with excitement and love from the people surrounding you in your life.
BUT it is also okay to not have a bridal party at all, making a romantic moment for just you and your groom. The options are unlimited and based on your own preference and vision for your special day. 💐

Have you been putting off your Halloween decorating and looking for the finishing touch? We have a few of these Beetlejuice Wreaths available and ready for pickup or shipping nationwide!
Natalia and Marc wanted to whisk their guests away to French chateau...since they had to stay in CT they settled on Wadsworth Mansion with a palette that Marie Antoinette would envy. Soft, feminine pinks, lavender, and blue tones were used throughout to give guests the feeling of being in a French garden.

A total bucket list day yesterday 🪣
I got to visit the Girl Scouts! There are so many things I remember from my scouting days and I attribute it to my various interests as an adult today ⛺️ 🌺
We made flower arrangements and talked about flower care and why they’re important in people’s lives. What made this even more special was the flowers were donated from Giana and David’s wedding this past weekend @tyde_walnutbeach and @gianaleo was a Girl Scout too!!
On my honor, I will try to serve God and my country, to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout Law
Double tap if you remember the Girl Scout promise 💚💚💚

Sad taking apart a bouquet we worked months on conceptualizing, sourcing and then creating
But this piece will have new life as a pressed flower resin tray for our bride Samantha @novemberraes
Well tuck these little babies in for a few weeks to really dry out and then start the casting process

I'm Kate LaPietra, the founder, owner, and chief flower officer of Fountainhead Floral Design.
I absolutely love spreading beauty into people lives through flowers. When someone brings flowers into a room, something changes...an energy, excitement!
I left a career in public service behind to follow my flower dream, but I've never lost my spirit for serving the public. I want to be the person that injects your world with more color!
I'm a "jill-of-all-trades", a small-town, youngest child, creative, and a pretty good cook. I pride myself on being down-to-earth, a good listener, and always ready to break the silence with a witty remark. I love my dog (Pippa), my parents, all the COLORs, and margaritas with extra salt and a side of Grey's Anatomy.
The most important people in my life are my husband and two young sons. They have shaped me into the best version of myself I could hope for. Most of the time, you can find me mommin' at our home or flowerin' at my studio in Stratford, CT.
