I had the priviledge of doing the flowers for one of my childhood friends. Our parents taught together and for a couple years we lived right next door. I love when family and friends allow me to be a part of the special days! Thank you Sara! Her wedding was one of my favorite color combinations...red and teal. The were married in the mountains of Colorado near Frisco. She wanted something simple and natural, but had pop! We used red gerbera daisies and bear grass. The weather was gorgeous. Many blessings to you Sara and Eric!

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!

 My amazing Mom!! (first mother's day in the shop)

One of my dear friends and mentor has started her own floral design studio with a few ladies in Dallas/Fort Worth area! Cheri is an amazing designer. Her creativity will take your breath away.

Last night I was watching one of my FAVORITE movies...Sweet Home Alabama!! What girl does not love this movie? As I was watching Melanie get ready to walk down the aisle, I began to wonder if her birdcage veil was the beginning of a wonderful trend in the wedding industry. I love the versatility of these veils. A bride can choose whatever flower or feather that best fits her style, and this can transform her look into classic hollywood,  vintage, or modern contemporary!
