Branford House August 21st 2009

I love this picture of the cake! It was such a sweet cake, very tiny and cute but elegantly decorated too. Caitlin was very stylish and wanted a very elegant, rich look. Her wedding was at the Branford House on CT's Shoreline which is such a beautiful location.

We dropped off the Bouquets the morning of and met the photographer John LoConte http://www.johnlophoto.com who did a great job. The dresses were a baby blue short cocktail style and we opted to go for a darker bouquet in shades of fuschia, Burgundy, cranberry... We used a lot of garden flowers like Dahlias, Coxcomb Celosia, Stock and Garden Roses with touches of Chocolate Cosmos.


Some of the photos show the bouquets as being really dark but this one you can really tell there are a few pops of color.

The Ceremony was on the lawn outside overlooking the Ocean and it was a Hot day but the breeze was nice. We used Large urns that were a Charcoal grey color and we filled them with dark Cranberry and Burgundy Garden flowers to match the bouquets.

A fun photo of the girls and bouquets!

The aisle had buckets filled with the same flower types and attached to the chairs with ribbons. Lynda from Details http://www.detailsweddings.com who was the event planner moved them into the main house for cocktail hour.

I like the contrast of the light blue and darker bouquets which you can see better here.

The table linens were Dark Navy Blue and we chose a silver dish for a little bit of flash and filled them with the same flowers as the bouquets.

Thanks Caitlin and Congrats on your Marriage! I also want to thank Lynda from Details who did an amazing job planning this wedding with Caitlin.

Jennifer and Charles Wedding August 8th 2009

Jennifer and Charles were very down to earth and very enjoyable to work with. Jennifer knew exactly what she wanted and we created these designs which were unique but fit into her vision perfectly.

The place card table consisted of different heights of vases with all one flower type which set the tone for a more modern look and feel.

Jennifer wanted a bouquet of all pinks and creams arranged in a bulls eye style. We used cream Callas, Pink roses, Hydrangea and Stephanotis with pink crystals.



The Church was very simple with a modern chuppah draped in cream fabric and hot pink wreaths adorning the aisles.



A close up of the wreath which Lindsay (http:///www.sixpenceevents.com) moved to the Marriott and used for the cocktail hour.



The Down town Hartford Marriott Hotel was the reception site and all the tables had pink overlays.




The tall centerpieces had crystal rocks in shades of pinks and clear placed in the bottom of the vase as well as some pink rose petals on the table. A hasta leaf was placed near the top where a lush cloud of White Hydrangea and Stock filled the mouth of the vase and coming out of the top were Green Dendrobium orchids, Bells of Ireland and Large white Callas.

The room really looked stunning when it was all put together!

Thanks so much to Jen and Charles for working with us we really enjoyed doing this wedding and meeting both of you! Congrats on your Big Day.

Monika and Craig's Wedding June 14th 2009

Monika and Craig were such a wonderful couple to work with they really made my job fun and exciting! They got married in the garden at Elizabeth Park in Hartford so they opted for no flowers for the ceremony as there were roses in full bloom Everywhere!

The reception was at the pond house just a short walk away. The photographer was Carrie Draghi who did an amazing job as well.

Monika really wanted to have color in her bouquet so we did a lot of rich green colors as the base with bright purple and orange accents.

I used Green Cymbidium orchids, Trachillium, ladies mantle, purple lisianthus, purple stock and orange roses of various sizes.

Another view of her bouquet!

Craig really wanted something unique and incorporating wire. We did a green dendrobium orchid with a touch of purple and some lisianthus buds and a green wire wrap on the stem.

Monika really wanted the flower girl to have some pink as that was her favorite color. We did a petite floral head wreath and a very petite clutch for her to hold too. She was so cute!

For the tables we opted to do three cylinder vases at varied heights with river rocks and a single orchid with a floating candle above. These were very cute but smaller in size so we also place some scattered rocks petals and flower heads to give more color and depth to the table.

Thanks again Monika and Craig, I wish you both much hapiness in your life together!

May 30th 2009

This wedding was one of our first weddings the 2009 wedding season. We worked with Lynda from Details wedding planners. Our clients were Mary and Charles Bullock who lived out of state but were from Cheshire, CT.


This Beautiful photo of the Bride's Bouquet was taken by Gwyneth Colleen Photography! They wanted to use mostly Cream and Green Flowers with a touch of Blush pink accents. We used green Hydrangea, Trachillium and Cream Peonies,Roses. For the Blush color we used Sweet peas.

The flower girls were so happy to get a full sized bouquet!

I think Mary liked the Trachillium! It is really cool because it looks like moss.

The Brides maids Bouquets had just a little bit more pink color.

The reception took place at the Union League cafe in New Haven, CT. It was a really charming place and very nice for a smaller amount of guests. The centerpiece was in a rustic brown urn and filled with mostly cream and greens with a touch of dark plum color. We used Hydrangea, Roses, Spirea, Trachillium, Dogwood, Sweet peas and Hasta leaves.

One more shot of the table arrangements!

The cake was adorned with small groupings of flowers!
