True Love Tuesday: Noy and Darwin

Tuberoses, Celosia, two different varietals of Basil, and over a dozen different varieties of Dahlias created this gorgeous look.  

Noy and Darwin were married in September, and wanted to embrace the local fare. They also wanted Dahlias; lots and lots of Dahlias in many different varieties. So, to the Farmer's Market we went! We worked with local growers and created their vibrant centerpieces using locally grown flowers with a few tropical flowers added for a touch of flair. This was such a fun wedding and design to work on. We love working with our local growers and suppliers! Enjoy!!

True Love Tuesday: Haley & Thomas - The Reception

Haley and Thomas' reception was held at the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs on September 22. Haley came to us wanting a Shabby Chic wedding using a mixture of Mason Jars, antique lace, and her collection of tea tins, kettles, and urns that she found in various flea markets. For flowers we stayed in the cream color palate using a mixture of Hydrangeas, Roses, Spider Mums, Stocks, Scabiosa Pods, and Dahlias. 

The combination of her Shabby Chic containers, and the cream color palate of her flowers made for a one-of-a-kind look in the gorgeous ballroom.
Enjoy!!!

Wedding Day Flowers for Your Pet

We are proud to announce an addition to our team; Tank, our new little guard dog here at the studio! Of course, we had to make him his own floral collar on picture day. In honor of Sir Tank, we decided to showcase a few ideas for wedding flowers for your pet.



Incorporating your special pet in your wedding is not a new idea. With more and more couples living together before marriage, it's common to have gotten a pet during that time that you want to be a part of your special day.  We sat down and collected a few tips for you to keep in mind while planning on your flowers.

Most importantly, you want to keep it simple. Pets can sometimes be distracted with something new, and especially if they are wearing it. The best way to prevent this is to keep your design simple and comfortable. Our favorite designs are floral collars or special boutonnieres that clip onto the existing collar. This way it's easy to take off and will keep Fido comfortable.

A close up of Tank's collar; Purple Dahlia's and Wax Flower were
the perfect combination on a Green Satin Ribbon. 
Something that goes along with keeping it simple is the choice of flower you use. You want to be sure to use a flower that is durable and can withstand the possible beating it may get by Fido's paw.  Don't forget that some plants and flowers can be harmful to your pet if eaten.

We have included some of our past favorite designs, and a couple of our design inspirations for future work. We even included a picture of topiary's made to look like the couple's favorite pets!

Enjoy!!

True Love Tuesday: Jordan & Chance - June 30

Jordan and Chance were married on June 30th at Pratt Place Barn. Jordan came to us with a picture of her perfect bouquet (we'll cover inspirations in a later blog) with one request: change the white flowers. She knew she wanted something a little rustic but with a flair of elegance. So...we bring to you: Naturally Chic. 

Thanks to Meredith Melody for all of the fabulous detail shots. And we look forward to bringing you more about this wedding!!!

Enjoy!!
Purple Hydrangea, White Dahlias, Green Carnations, Scabiosa Pods, Bramble Vine, and Heuchera foliage all combine to create the bridal party's look.
