The Foundry, Long Island City wedding flowers.









This was a one of my favorite weddings of the year. The bride wanted a classic, yet textural and elegant look to her designs. The Foundry of course, it a stunning backdrop for these sorts of designs. We used lots of succulents, gardenia's, orchids, callas, spanish moss, snowberries, roses, and hydrangea. Enjoy (: I also had the pleasure of working with the wonderful Ara, of Rock Paper Scissors Events! And, the mega talented photographer, Liesl of Photo Pink!

A Montauk Club wedding in Park Slope Brooklyn.








This spring-y wedding was so much fun to design! The bride wanted an unstructured, elegant look using soft tones. I chose muted greens like eucalpytus, succulents, and dusty miller to accent the flowers. The main blooms were peonies, pink veronica, ranunculous, poppy seed heads, and queen ann lace. We alternated the centerpieces by using the full scale arrangement with mercury candle sticks and paired the succulent based arrangements with a collection of mini bell jars. These featured tiny succulents with grey spanish moss for a simple, elegant spin on a terrarium! The escort table had a huge cherry blossom arrangement with little bird bud vases at the base.

Lovely Bridal turn's ONE!






Here are some more images of the flowers I did for Lovely's one year birthday party.

Lovely Bridal turn's ONE!




Lovely Bridal celebrated their first birthday last week and asked me to do their flowers. I absolutely love working in their beautiful space. Every thing there is just so and makes for a relaxed and fun experience. Some of the images there are by Mel and Co.'s who's troupe was there to document every detail. There were tasty treats from Naturally Delicious and Lulu Cake Boutique .

Prospect Park Boathouse wedding 8/7/10 Brooklyn, NY







Zack + Kay contacted me about 2.5 months before this rather large wedding at the Boathouse in Prospect Park. They had no particular flowers in mind at all! They told me that their colors were electric blue and grey and that they wanted a "structural, strong, edgey, and organic. Sooo...... I ran with that! *The isle was created with a birch log that was cut down into stumps that stood about 12 inches in height. I used a ring of flowers around each base using blue delphinium, scabiosa, eryngium, and spanish moss. *The centerpieces were both tall (Manzanita branch) and short (ponds). **more information below in these centers.
*The bouquets were made up of antique hydrangea, blue corn flowers, lavender, succulents, scabiosa pods, tibet roses, burgundy scabiosa, silver brunia, and this cool spidery green foliage.
*The bout's were my FAV! They were made of mini succulents, silver brunia, and lavender.
