Mackenzie & Joey Wedding Flowers

Well we just completed the largest wedding to date that we have ever done.  It had its moments but over all I think it turned out just beautiful.  I met with Mackenzie, Joey and Celeste (family friend and acting coordinator) back in November.  We discussed their vision of a Vintage Glam wedding using blush, ivory and pale pink flowers with lots of crystals.  Since our initial meeting I also met with them 2 times at the site to see what else might be needed.  The biggest hurdle for me was when I saw the bridesmaid’s dresses (there were 11 bridesmaids).  All of the colors we had originally chosen did not work with the blush dresses so we had to rethink our color choices.  Once the colors were chosen things went fairly smooth.  The day of the wedding we worked for 6 hours setting up the site.  Here are some pictures from a few days prior till the final set up.

A big Thank You to my right hand Katrina (my daughter) who I could not have done this without her.  My husband Harold who I am so thankful for.  He helped with set up and came back to help me take down this wedding.  He also did countless other things in the weeks and days prior.  Thank you Lisa for holding down the shop.  For Diane, Cody & Taylor (our new family members) thank you for all of your help.  To my mom who at the last minute when I decided that I didn’t want the personals so early came and brought them to me.  Without all of these people I could have never pulled this off.

Here area  few pictures of what our fridge looked like after receiving all the flowers, had all the arrangements sitting ready to be transported and what it looks like prior to set up.

Inside the cooler we had buckets and buckets of hydrangea.  On the shelves are pre greened centerpieces.

New Bouquets

It’s About Time

Well it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to sit down and add new pictures to my blog.  Here are some all the way back from December to the ones I took just yesterday.  So far 2012 has been a really busy year for us and as we head into wedding season it’s just going to get more crazy.  No complaints…maybe a little over whelmed but I’m not complaining.

Have lots of pictures to share so I will put them in different entries.  Here are some of the bridal bouquets I’ve done.

Pre Rose Bowl Event

We were lucky enough to get asked to do the flowers for a pre Rose Bowl event on January 2nd at the Rose Bowl.  This was an event for all of the sponsors.  We arrived at 3 a.m. and starting setting up at 5 a.m.  Here are a few pictures of the flowers we did.

We started off the month at Wien’s Winery in Temecula for Dana’s yellow wedding.  Then we had Stephanie’s wedding at The Grand Tradition – Beverly Mansion on the 12th.  Finishing up the month with Leonora’s at Pala Mesa Resort.
