This amazing August wedding was meticulously and beautifully planned by Tamera. She herself wants to get into wedding planning and definitely has more than enough talent to do it! (Once she gets her business up and running, I’ll pass on her contact information. She has absolutely amazingly creative ideas!!). Tamera came to me with a vision for her flowers and we “bounced” ideas off each other over months of planning to bring her vision to life. I don’t even know what to say about this wedding… The always fabulous Heather from HRM Photography captured every detail and the atmosphere so perfectly that I’ll just let the photos speak for themselves!  It was hard to choose just a few photos to show, so this will be a big post!

The adorable bride carried a bouquet of garden roses and callas in shades of pink, and cymbidium orchids in pinks and greens.

I’m loving this trend of vibrant shoes for the bride! (This can be a perfect way to infuse a bit of your wild side into an otherwise tame wedding dress).

The bridesmaids carried similar bouquets to the bride but we added in green berries to add a bit more pop against their chocolate brown dresses.

The Groom wore a calla-orchid combo while the groomsmen wore a single green orchid with berries.

Some great shots from the ceremony! –

Tamera ordered a custom monogrammed runner.  We framed the ceremony by decorating the mantle with a garland, orchids and candles and setting two large coordinating pink and green floral arrangements on deep chocolate brown stands. The finishing touch is the chandelier dripping with crystals and green dendrobium orchids!

In the corner tree, green orchids and candlelight “danced” above the gifts below!

The reception flowers were a combination of low full floral arrangements and tall willow arrangements that really suited the rustic elegance of Bellamere.

We “dolled up” the centre chandelier with strands of crystals.

A single green dendrobium bloom accented each napkin.

The cake is placed on a stand of single green cymbidium blooms in square vases. Pink and green cymbids adorn the cake along with a crystal monogram topper.

Love this photo! It almost makes you want to say “And they lived happily ever after!”

Look out, there are new rules in town!  Well, not so new really.  Whoever said that you can’t mix pink and red, or brown and black?  This wedding shows just how awesome pinks and reds can look together! For this September wedding at The Old Court House, we paired gorgeous pink and red flowers with rich chocolate browns, and light mocha browns to create a dramatic effect!

The bridesmaids’ bouquets consisted of hot pink roses, vibrant red roses and pink cymbidium orchids.

To soften things up a bit for the bride, soft pink roses were incorporated in her bouquet.

The sweet flower girls carried mini pink and red bouquets.

Two large vibrant arrangements framed the outdoor ceremony.

A couple of the groomsmen looking good in their coordinating pink callas!

Inside The Old Court House, the centerpieces were a combination of short and tall. See if you can spot the red dahlias, they’re locally grown in all sorts of glorious colours and my favourite for late summer!

An impressive “blooming” tree of pink and red orchids greeted the guests upon their entrance.

Laura and Adam were married at his parent’s home just outside London. It is a spectacular property with sprawling lawns- perfect for an outdoor tent wedding! It was an incredibly hot July day (I must admit I was very tempted by their glistening blue pool), but the couple had planned for the heat and had two gigantic fans helping to keep the tent cool. From the looks of the photos, the heat didn’t bother anyone in the least! Congratulations Laura and Adam, I wish you all the best!

Laura’s bouquet was composed of dahlias, roses, orchids and celosia.

The bridesmaids carried similar bouquets except we also added in mini orange gerberas and green berries. Check out their neat dresses! (You may not be able to notice this detail in the photos, but the two-toned pink roses in the bouquets are the same two pinks found in the dresses!)

The men wore pink callas to compliment their ties.

The ceremony was held outdoors framed by an archway of gerberas and two large arrangements.

Inside the tent, we continued the bright and fun theme with square centerpieces of hydrangea, gerberas, roses and hypericum berries.

Always re-use!  The ceremony arrangements served double duty when they became the backdrop.  They held up really well too considering it was over 30 degrees!

I just love my job and that I get to play a part in such amazing events.  Just look at the joy on this adorable bride’s face!  Another fantastic and fun wedding!

Congratulations to Megan and Darren who were married at the beautiful Hunt Club last fall.  When asking for Megan’s address early on in our meetings together, I found out we had a bit of a connection.  She lives on the same street as my fiance’s parents (a few houses down).  And not only that, the house my fiance’s parents are in was sold to them years ago by her aunt and uncle.  Small world!

The bride carried a vivid red bouquet of roses, callas and ranunculus with bear grass woven in. The groom wore a red calla to match.

Since the bridesmaids wore beautiful red dresses, they carried white bouquets of hydrangea, roses, freesia and callas.

I love photos that capture just how well the colour scheme all came together. (All that planning really does pay off!) Just look at the perfectly coordinated reds, blacks and whites!

Even though the Hunt Club is a bit more traditional, we decided to do modern and fun flowers! The vibrant red gerberas and roses really stood out among the fresh green grass! On each guest napkin we placed a single Kermit bloom.
