Yes we are still talking about Mother's Day in June! But really, we should always be finding ways to honor our precious Mothers, right?
Brunch, Lunch and Dinner! We did it all this year and had fun with the GORGEOUS cherry blossom that we got in. Blooming branches just scream spring!
One of the events had a white and yellow color scheme and so we thought it would be fun to use tulips, gerbera daisies and yellow button poms. To help elongate our tablescapes we used some of our silver votive cups with one fun tulip sticking right out of the top! It was an unexpected and fun addition to the table.
And of course we had to have a monster "wow" arrangement filled with flowers. It's arrangements like these that make you want to touch the flowers to see if they are real. Flowers are so amazing, and with the endless possibilities of combinations and colors you never get tired of creating something new.
One of my favorite flowers to see in the Summer time are Sunflowers! They are so big and beautiful and you just can't help but smile when you see them. So it seemed fitting that a party held at the beginning of this Summer had Sunflowers as the theme!
The cocktail table arrangements in the room had a fun surprise with green water pearls and a green underwater light. The water pearls are a fun alternative to just having plain water in a vase. The flowers still get the water they need while creating a crystal or almost tapioca like texture in the vase. They come in every color and are fun to experiment with!
May is one of those months that seems to be simply wild. We love it here; from the weddings to the graduation parties, prom and Mother's Day we stay hoppin'! The picture above are a few styles of arrangements that we used in The Grand Ballroom at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center. Due to the tall ceiling and shear magnitude of the room we like to use a few different styles of centerpieces to add interest to the tables. Here we incorporated all her colors by color blocking each style of arrangement. With low arrangements filled with green hydrangea and hypericum, the middle sized arrangements with blue hydrangea and iris and the tall arrangements with all white gladiolas.
May is also fun because it is one of the few months where the weather is simply beautiful, so every color scheme tends to look amazing. This was a fun party with vibrant oranges and corals with a tropical feel.
These fun arrangements reminded me of peaches and cream. We loved the polka dot table cloths, they really made the flowers stand out.
We have been getting a beautiful rose in lately called finesse. It's like a cross between a traditional garden rose and a david austin rose. It's frilly and comes is yellow, peach pink and green. It is one of my favorite roses. It's always fun to play with new varieties.
... are always more fun! We recently made fun arrangements in vintage malt glasses for a 50's themed party at The Club at Carlton Woods.
This wedding was held at Ashton Gardens in their beautiful chapel and reception hall. The all white color scheme is always so bridal and calming. Their center pieces had submerged miniature garden rose blooms with fluffy white hydrangea on top to add a fun element of interest to the table while her aisle was adorned with lanterns and hydrangeas on the pews.
Pink and white always scream wedding and this bouquet was stunning. With emphasis on texture and depth the combination of full size roses, miniature garden roses, freesia, hydrangea and lisianthus it was gorgeous to look at and sweet to the nose!
There is something so beautiful about a soft color pallet with whites, greens and a hint of a blush pink. It just screams bridal, in a soft pretty way ;)... This beautiful bride had her ceremony at the Woodlands United Methodist Church in the Robb Chapel. The chapel was decorated with white roses on the pews, white hydrangea plants on the altar and beautiful greenery wreaths with a white focal area of mixed flowers on the doors.
Her bouquet was a stunning mix of all white flowers including peonies, roses and miniature calla lilies. The fragrance was incredible. I always say, if your nose allows, that every bride should have something sweet to smell when their photographer tells them to put their nose in their bouquet. It adds just a little something extra to the day and pleasant memories when you come across familiar fragrances later.
Her reception was held at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center in the Palmetto Room. With beautiful black linens and white chair covers the flowers really had a chance to shine! With gorgeous white gladiolas in tall glass flutes and a textural mix of blooms in the low arrangements you couldn't help but say "Wow" as you walked into the room. Her low arrangements were filled with a beautiful mix of blush dahlias, bells of Ireland and white hydrangea (please pardon the picture it looks like yellow... but it's really white) with a soft mix of greens. It was a gorgeous day for a fabulous bride.
