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!

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” »
"Down Home" Star Hill Ranch Style
Simple and country vintage is what this client wanted. There was a huge
wedding party, so we repurposed their bouquets as table centerpieces into
skinny cylinder vases with a gold rim. Brides on a budget and that have numerous tables
to decorate, this is a super helpful solution. The bride’s main concern was
that everything fit into budget and if that meant that we picked a certain
type of flower to make that happen but without loosing the integrity
of the overall feel ….. she was a happy camper!

Vintage On The Mansion
Vintage at “The Mansion On Judge’s Hill”
BZ’s lovely team helped us create a unique
white with icy blue accented wedding.
The bride and groom lived out of state and trusted
our collaborative team to make it work!
Here are some details from the wedding we
took some shots of.

Diamond Domain Bridal Soiree
We were asked by Kristi Treadwill of Buon Affaire Events to help her create a fun and sophisticated space at the first Diamond Domain Bridal Soiree. Kristi knows us quite well and really let us do whatever we wanted to. She chose a nice and simple silver pintuck linen and white fitted chair covers with silver pintuck sashes tied simply in the back with a obi loop. We embellished the obi loop with a tuft of grey toned feathers that were perfection. I chose purple toned flowers to go along with the silver for an “in fashion” color choice for the season. If you visited our space let us know when you inquire.

California meets Texas
I can’t quite remember the connection to Texas this Californian couple had….but it didn’t really matter because the bride in her boots says “Texan” all the way. This was a couple I never actually got to meet, as we did all our interviews via phone since they lived out of state. However everything was well communicated and easy going. The bride is actually a fabulous photographer and hired another photographer Leigh Miller Photography out of California to shoot her wedding. I was blown away by the depth and subject matter Leigh chose and included some non floral aspects to give you a well rounded feel for the emotional event. I especially love the bride’s gown, the collared style of her dress was more than perfect for her look. Every aspect of the wedding meshed so lovely together. I share these photos with you in hopes you see the beauty my job offers as just a small detail in such a “big” event in a couples life.
Enjoy!

p.s. This is also the last wedding we did at Barr Mansion before the unique Artisian ballroom they had was lost in a terrible fire earlier this year.
"Lil Pumpkin"
Botanist + Baker = A Really Cool Couple
“Lil Pumpkin” refers to the bride’s pet name that
her super sweet mother calls her by…..so we
put pumpkins all over the place to remind
the bride of one of her favorite things!
This vintage inspired wedding used one of a kind
fabulous pottery from a collection of the bride’s mother….
no pressure Last Petal team…eeek!
However, these vases were the piece d’ resistance for the
table decor…we coupled them with copper candlesticks for
another vintage touch.
Love the unique blend of textures and colors we used for
this wedding. Sometimes you have to go outside the comfort zone
of a two color design palette.
Love this wedding, super special!
Enjoy!

Autumn Splendor
The mornings are starting to get that slight
hint that cooler weather is around the corner.
Today being the “official” first day of Fall,
I thought I’d post an autumn wedding from last year.
I adore the Fall, and it’s probably my
favorite time of year for flowers.
Spring is wonderful, but Fall flowers show
such a unique palette of colors and variations.
Everytime this season comes around,
we get giddy at the studio opening our
gorgeous packages of botanical goodies!
By coincidence, this day is also my 8th wedding
anniversary and reminds me of what an
awesome choice I made for having our wedding
specifically on the Autumn Solstice & The Harvest Moon.
Details make life so much more interesting…..
Enjoy!

Venue: UT Alumni Center
Coordination: Clink Events
Delicate & Frilly : Bold & Bright!
Opposites really do work sometimes!
This bride requested romantic, small and delicate for
her and bright colors to compliment the bridesmaids dresses.
The artist bride (turned florist after the wedding!)
loved color and the fuschia/purple and orange orchids looked
bold against the dark teal dresses. The bouquet I made
for the bride mimicked her intricate gown, using
queen anne’s lace, little white feathers, stephanotis,
dendrobium orchids, lisianthus, and sweet peas.
Enjoy!
