Laidback at the Palm Door

Posted by on Feb 2, 2012 in Journal | No Comments

Love this bright and colorful mixture of flowers for a reception at the Palm Door in Austin, Texas.  The couple eloped elsewhere and had  the reception to share the event with their friends and family.  The bride contributed fun 50s style linen accents for the center of the tables, where we placed single galvanized bucket arrangements.  We used garden roses, hydrangea, craspedia, dianthus, gloriosa lilies, stock, pincushion proteas in fuchsias, oranges, greens, reds etc.

Enjoy!

Coral Charming…… Table Centerpiece
At the Barton Creek Resort and Spa, this centerpiece
added additional sophistication and fun to one bride’s
reception. Using an all coral palette with candlelight created
a lovely table setting.
Enjoy!

Thought I would share a lovely centerpiece from a past wedding of ours.
It’s coming up Fall soon, and these items were a lovely nod to the season.
This design showcases texture as it’s main component, but keeping it still fresh and modern.
Enjoy!

This adorable couple had a lovely afternoon wedding at
St. Mary’s Cathedral in Austin, Texas.
As you can see, this sweet photoshoot before their wedding
revealed such a fun palette of color using green and orange tones.
The only color in the church being the personal flowers
we had to make sure to have them POP! The bouquets did the trick…..
but in keeping with a lovely and classic finish to enjoy in their photos for years to come.
Enjoy!

Deep In The Heart Of Texas!

 
This country wedding was held outside Brenham, Texas close to a small town called Chappell Hill. It was a rather unusual venue, a wild game retreat! Our use of feathers and such was a nod to the local inhabitants. Sarah was a very sweet bride, and we gave her a rustic look to fit and communicate with the venue and it’s surroundings. I loved her rich hued color palette. The mustards, plums, oranges, greens and fuschias really enhanced the peacock and pheasant feathers we added everywhere.
Enjoy this “Texas” wedding!

Miramont Country Club, Bryan Texas

This lovely wedding took place at the exclusive Miramont Country Club in Bryan, Texas.
We had the pleasure of providing flowers for this garden felt wedding inside their main ballroom on a warm Summer day. We used a textural palette of ferns, viburnum, garden roses, dahlias, amaranthus, branches, berries, rannunculus, and sweetpeas.
Enjoy!

This is the simplest of simple posts to our blog……
This arrangement was made yesterday for a daily and I thought
how lovely it would be to take a quick pic and share.
The palette of champagne, ivory and green translates as classic,
but the multiple textures give it the nice vintage look so many
brides are going with currently. I hope it inspires you!
Enjoy!

Intimate Setting At Hoffman Haus

This “hands off” wedding took place in Fredericksburg, Texas.  I never met the bride, but she gave me a color scheme and just said make the designs! Love it! Her coordinator/decorator had great taste, the venue was minimally and tastefully designed with the tables decorated using planks of wooden tree discs with white candles in clear glass cylinders set on top. Each place setting  Continue reading “Intimate Setting At Hoffman Haus” »
