July Weddings {part 1}



 This beautiful bride had a stunning bouquet of white hydrangea, white roses, white peonies and blue delphinium blooms, while her bridesmaid carried a fragrant bouquet of ruby stock with blue ribbons.
 These bouquets were beautiful and also fragrant! We love to encourage our brides, if there are no allergies, to hold something fragrant. Especially since you will be told multiple times throughout the day to hold it right in your face, why not have something that smells divine, right?
 The ceremony was held at the Chapel in the Woods in The Woodlands Texas. With potted hydrangeas along the aisle and stunning wrought iron candelabras with soft and full white and pink arrangements the chapel was decorated beautifully.
 The reception was held at the Woodlands Resort and Conference Center. In such a large ballroom we often encourage the use of multiple styles of arrangements. By having different heights throughout the room you automatically increase the "wow" factor for your guests, plus it makes a big room feel more intimate.
 Don't forget that most weddings and receptions are best completed when all the little details are paid attention. Flowers can brighten up any space in a reception hall. Your place card table, the guest books table, the gift table and buffet tables can all be personalized by using coordinating arrangements.

The Color of Love

There are some colors that will always be fashionable for weddings. White is ever popular with it's many different variations, but the most common color that has withstood the test of time seems to be red. A beautiful color that evokes feelings of passion, love and romance.

This beautiful wedding on the Forest Deck at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center was a gorgeous display of red, featuring roses as the primary bloom of choice. The aisle was lined with red rose petals and wrought iron shepherds hooks with hanging red pomanders and black lanterns. The gazebo itself was draped in a pair of soft white curtains accented by red rose floral tie backs and tulle along the top.
The reception was held in The Glass ballroom at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center, which is one of our favorite rooms. We love how the walls of glass let your guests enjoy the evening views over the beautiful golf course.
With an assortment of tall and low arrangements for the tables her guests were greeted by a beautiful display of flowers at all levels as they entered the reception. We also hung strands of rose petals from the ceiling over the dance floor as another red accent in the room.
The combination of roses and stock created a soft sultry scent to the room and the vivid contrast in color kept her guests looking and admiring for long after their initial impression. With classic colors you just can't seems to go wrong!

Red is all the Rage

The fall colors are on parade this month and red is often at center stage! These beautiful wedding showcase different styles and designs that just simply scream fall!
Bouquets with texture and visual interest are always more fun to photograph and create depth and impact in bridal portraits.
One of our favorite detail pieces for receptions is having something on the doors. These wreaths were beautiful with gorgeous color and amazing texture and movement. The nice thing is that once all your guests are inside, they can be moved to the inside of the doors just by switching the hook around!
Ashelynn Manor's chapel is such a beautiful, yet simple setting for a wedding ceremony. With dark floor and soft beige walls it truly is a great backdrop for any color scheme, especially the rich tones of fall.
It's our favorite time of year and we absolutely love to see all the gorgeous pictures with such vibrant colors. Our theory about color? Don't be afraid to do what you want. It's your wedding and if bold is what you want, then go big and bold and we promise you wont regret it!

Regal Colors

When I see red and purple together I can't help but think of a kings thrown room draped with deep red velvet draped and purple robes with gold accents. This brides decor reflected that same sophistication. The arch for her ceremony was covered in white lilies, red roses, dark purple carnations and a variety of greens, creating a lush garland type feel.
Her centerpieces, varying in height were a mixture of red roses, purple lisianthus, red hypericum berries and green hydrangea.
The ceremony was held in The Glass at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center where we laid down as aisle runner sprinkled it with rose petals and used our beautiful shepherd hooks to hang lanterns and red pomander balls. It was a gorgeous aisle for the bride to walk!

Vibrant Hues of Summer

The contrast you can achieve with hot colors is always eye catching and tends to leave a lasting impact!
This summer bride had her ceremony at the lovely chapel at Ashelynn Manor. The rich wood floors were the perfect backdrop for vibrant rose petals and full altar arrangements.
Her reception decor included pomanders hanging from shepherd hooks on either side of her cake table, a trio of vases with gerbera daisies, hydrangea, and orchids on the tables and candle light. Overall the vibrant colors were the perfect way to make a statement that was welcoming for all her guests!

Rosy Reds...

One of my favorite things about all red weddings, is that they are not shy! Instantly you get a wow factor with such vibrant beautiful color. This bride got double use out of her aisle decor of red pomanders by using them as accent pieces at her reception. They were a fun alternative to traditional petals being laid down the aisle, and definitely caught her guests attention!

Wedding of the Month...Part 2...


The Fazio club house was decorated to the 9's. It was the perfect setting to celebrate such a momentous occasion. With her existing color scheme and pops of orange the decor was absolutely stunning.
Two beautiful arrangements with a combination of all her colors introduced her guests to the party. Her accent pieces were a combination of various sized vases with teal pebbles, underwater lights, and clusters of coordinating blooms.
Each buffet station or room had a combination of different floral pieces in a beautiful clean style. This buffet piece was built on a natural trellis with paved orange lilies in the base and suspended yellow button pomanders to carry over her pomander theme from the ceremony.

Other buffet arrangements were a combination of different height vases filled with orchids, calla lilies, ranunculus, tulips, billy balls, and fern curls.

Sometimes it's all the details that brings an event together and for this reception every other chair was adorned with a mix of 5 different blue ribbons and a white gerbera daisy.

The covered patio was a sight to behold; with draping fabric on shades of teal, white and blue and white chinese lanterns hung throughout it created a serene feeling as you enjoyed the slight breeze and beautiful surroundings.
With alternating centerpiece styles we created big, beautiful pieces for the tall arrangements in out glass clarinet vases filled with white hydrangea, orange lilies, yellow tulips, yellow oncidium orchids and white standard calla lilies. surrounded with vases of floating candles in coordinating blue water.
While the law arrangements were a mix of different vases in a very simplistic style with clusters of each type of flower in each vase accented by a teal underwater light and mixed blue pebbles.
But who can have an outdoor buffet without a fabulous showpiece to draw your eyes to? We created this beautiful piece with manzinita branges strung with angel lights and hanging yellow button pomander balls.
The base of the piece was pillowed with white hydrangea, swirling callas, oncidium orchids, and vibrant tulips. It was spectacular and added the perfect touch to the outdoor decor.

Look familiar? I hope so! These little beauties are the yellow pomander balls from the ceremony. We transfered the flowers over to the reception so they could enjoy them all night long!
