This weekend we had a wedding in Colorado Springs at The Club at Flying Horse. Here is a little sneak peak. I can't wait to show you the bride's shoes and dress! Absolutely gorgeous!! Her colors were black and white with accents of blue. Everything was so classy. The bride's bouquet was white hydrangea, calla lilies, stephanotis, fern tails, and the stem was wrapped with black and white and rhinestone buckles.  The bridesmaids carried blue hydrangea bouquets.

 

 

 

I love meeting new professionals in the wedding industry and I would love to hear of the awesome vendors or venues you have worked with. Individuals in the Colorado Springs area that are super awesome at what they do and want to offer brides something new and different! Leave a comment or email me (amber@yourbeautifulexpressions.com) the people you love. I want  the brides of Colorado Springs to know there are options that will give them the wedding they have always dreamed of-not the wedding everyone else has already had!

In July we had the priviledge of doing Danielle and Joshua's wedding at the Cheyenne Mountain Resort. It's such a pretty venue. 
One of my favorite flowers are orchids and her bouquets were full of them! The bridesmaids were wearing black dresses and carried bouquets of fuschia mokara orchids with bear grass. Danielle's bouquet was white cymbidium orchids with dendrobium orchids and a few white roses tucked in. Danielle's dress was gorgeous. She was such an adorable bride! A very sweet couple. Best wishes to you both.

This weekend we did a wedding at the small chapel at the First United Methodist Church in down town Colorado Springs. I LOVE this chapel. It's small, intimate space is beautiful and full of character-stained glass windows and dark wood pews! It is one of the most peaceful chapels I have ever been in.

The flowers were simple, fragrant, and beautiful. The bouquets were made of fresh lavender and tied with white ribbon like they were fresh-picked out of the field.

This year has been full of weddings I just love!! This one is no exception. Natalie wanted an elegant English garden feel. I love the muted colors of pink, green, ivory, and peach. We used hydrangea, roses, lisianthus, sweet peas, hypericum berry, Queen Anne's lace, and hanging amaranthus. The wedding was in Colorado Springs at The Club at Flying Horse and the day was absolutely gorgeous. The staff at Flying Horse is amazing and the venue is beautiful! The bride wore a gown from Something New Boutique (I'll post a picture when I get it), but it was beyond gorgeous...lace with detailed beading and the fit was fabulous. Holly Pacione was gracious enough to come along with me to get some great shots of the flowers. Thanks again!

Last week we designed the flowers for Ashley and Axel's wedding. They had a beautiful black and white wedding at Fox Run Park, in Colorado Springs and their reception at the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame. Ashley chose dahlias, lisianthus, berries, and feathers for her bouquet, and spider mums, berries, and feathers for her bridesmaids bouquets. Her boutonnieres were feathers and berries! I love when I can use unique items for boutonnieres. Thanks for allowing us to be a part of your wedding! Many blessings to you.

June has started with a bang! It's a month full of weddings. We had a wedding last weekend and it was gorgeous! All white mokara orchids for the bride and beautiful pale yellow orchids for the bridesmaids. Simple and elegant. This weekend we have a wedding at the Historic Pinecrest-a little bling, and The Colorado Springs School-lots of beautiful color. Both are going to be amazing. I can't wait to show you.

We will get the next weekend off and then we have 4 weddings in a row the last week of June. We will be at The Club at Flying Horse, Garden of the Gods Club, and two in Denver! I'm so excited for this wedding season! So many fun designs and wonderful places to work. I LOVE my job!

 

 

Yesterday we had the pleasure of putting together the wedding flowers for Melissa at The Club at Flying Horse in Colorado Springs. It was a gorgeous day except it was so windy! I hope that Melissa was able to have her ceremony outside.  Melissa had such great style. The centerpieces were a collection of different vases with dahlias, roses, and hydrangea. The tall centerpieces with quince branches and limes!  Everything looked really amazing! I loved the way the bouquets turned out as well. The bride wanted her flowers to be more peach and green so we used green cymbidium orchids, peach dahlias and two different types of roses, hypericum berry, and mokara orchids. The bridesmaids had similar flowers with the addition of mini calla lilies. Thank you Melissa for allowing me to be a part of your wedding and many blessings to you.

In April, I had the priviledge of doing the wedding flowers for Nicole. Her wedding was at the Historic Pinecrest in Palmer Lake. It's such a neat chapel! I love when I get the opportunity to go there. Nicole's wedding colors were cranberry, green and ivory, and she loved Gerbera daisies so that was the focal flower. Thank you Nicole for allowing me to be a part of your wedding.
