Theresa and Paul's Wedding

My very good friend Theresa got married last month in Clearwater Florida. I was so happy she included us in her big day. I was her Maid of Honor and my daughter was her flower girl. I also had the pleasure of doing her flowers!

With a mostly white and hints of peach, we incorporated seashells and greenery from her parents' beautiful yard. It was quite an undertaking with tropical storms for three days prior but we managed to get it all done in time. Thanks to her gracious parents providing space in their home out of the rain and in the air conditioning.
The giant alter pieces got to ride in style!

Bouquets

In her bouquet I used orchids, spider mums, roses, cala lilies, tulips, succulents, and monstera leaves. The lace is the same that is on her dress handmade by her mother.

The weather ended up being perfect!

Details

Close up of the centerpieces. I used Lilies, roses, lisianthus, hydrangea, spider mums, succulents, seashells, and spanish moss. All the greenery, including the moss was taken from the yard.

Theresa is an amazingly talented print maker and she had her hand in every detail of this beautiful wedding. She designed and hand printed the invitations, place cards, menu card, wrappers for chocolate favors, hand sewed the table runners, and made these shell wreaths. Her mother made her beautiful dress and her fiance took this fantastic photo of them for their guest book. AND they made the chocolate seashells on the cake!

Reception

alter pieces did double duty as decor at the reception.

Rehearsal Dinner

Recently my very good friend Theresa Haberkorn http://theresahaberkorn.com/
got married. I was delighted to be her Maid of Honor AND floral designer. I did these arrangements for their rehearsal. I was quite fond of them!

I used peonies, roses, alstomeria, magnolia blooms, wax flower, and was able to use wonderful greens from her parent's yard.

Baby shower

I helped throw a baby shower for two friends. I did two centerpieces for the table. I used hydrangera, tulips, spider mums, button mums, and clipping from the yard. I added little baby washcloths gathered up to look like flowers and a baby bottle in the middle.

Baby shower

I also made the cake! It was really fun.

It is hard to see but these are in baby food jars.

Valentine's Topiary

I have a friend whose husband has been asking me to do some work for him. I have really enjoyed putting together arrangements for them! This is what I did for Valentine's. I think it is my all time favorite arrangement so far! I love it.

Girls Night Out

Everyone brings wine or food as a hostess gift. I always come with flowers. What hostess doesn't like flowers? I brought this to a Girls Night Out event.
Alstromeria, Gerbera Daisies, Mums, and Godetia.
