Flirty Valentine’s Day

February 8th, 2010 · 1 Comment

Tulips are one of my favorite flowers to work with and they are in season just in time for Valentine’s Day!  This set up is a great way to mix up your Vday décor.  We wove together grosgrain ribbons to create a playful overlay, then we took the same ribbon and wrapped our votives.

What I love about this is the apple wrapped in a tulip inside the vase, reminiscent of the garden of Eden and Eve’s apple…..take from it what you will.

twobirds bridesmaids

February 3rd, 2010 · 1 Comment

I recently discovered twobirds bridesmaids and am utterly impressed with the simplicity and functionality of these bridesmaids dresses.  Ariane Goldman the owner/founder of this company has designed one dress that can be worn over 15 ways and fit every shape!  Not to mention the different styles are elegant, sexy, flirty, and fun.  This truly is a dress that you can wear again…so if your bride pitches you this dress with that line, believe it!

Using color

January 25th, 2010 · No Comments

I love using bright bold colors in weddings and I am finding that more of my brides are a little more daring with their color choices.  For this wedding we used shades of a vivacious red, the traditional Chinese wedding color choice.  I love this wedding because with all the color we used one might think it would be overwhelming but instead it was stunning…

Don’t be afraid of color!
