Kristen and Christian

Kristen and Christian's wedding took place on July 8, 2012 at the breathtaking outdoor venue on Youngberg Hill in McMinnville, Oregon. Such a handsome couple with lovely personalities! It was an absolute pleasure, and working with Kristen's color choices of ivory, pinks, peach, and oranges with teal accents was a bonus. Their natural, colorful, casual-yet-classy style was just perfect for their special day.

Kristen's Bouquet: peonies, ranunculus, lisianthus, roses, spray roses, anenomes, calla lilies, dusty miller, and dangling blushing bride (not seen from this angle). Stems wrapped with ivory ribbon.

The Bridesmaid Bouquets: garden roses, stock, lisianthus, ranunculus, sweet peas, spray roses, and dusty miller. Each wrapped with a different shade of teal ribbon.

Christian's Boutonniere: calla lily, dusty miller, variegated pitt, and blushing bride.

The Groomsmen Boutonnieres: calla lily with dusty miller and light teal ribbon.

The flower girls each had a light pink rose with dusty miller hair pin and held a basket with ivory, pink, and orange rose petals. The ring bearer wore an orange spray rose with dusty miller and light teal ribbon. 

Chair ends were casual mason jar arrangements of pink spray rose and foliage. Ivory, pink, and orange aisle petals.

 The sweetest little two tier cake just for the bride and groom. 

The table centerpieces: same florals as the ceremony chair ends.

Congratulations to Kristen and Christian!

Kelsie and Paul

Kelsie and Paul's wedding ceremony and reception took place at the World Forestry Center in Portland on August 18, 2012. The room they were married in was an amazing, round, dramatic, and interesting space. They cleverly chose colors that were a fun and feminine contrast with the neutral colors on-site: Pink and ivory with pops of black and aqua.

Kelsie's bouquet: Ivory garden roses, ivory football mums, pink dahlias, pink lisianthus, and "foresty" greenery.

We used a piece of fabric that was removed from Kelsie's wedding gown to wrap the stems, then evenly attached family heirloom broaches.

The bridesmaid bouquets: Pink garden roses, pink dahlias, and "foresty" greenery.

The stems were wrapped with pale pink and aqua ribbon, sweet pink family heirloom buttons attached.

The Groomsman boutonierres: A pink garden rose and "foresty" greenery with teal ribbon.

The Centerpieces: A black bubble vase containing an arrangement of white football mums, pink dahlias, pink garden roses, and "foresty" greenery.

We decorated the aisle with pink and white rose petals displayed in a whimsical design, overlapping the aisle runner.

The venue has a permanent fixture of hanging lanterns in the center of the room. We removed three of the smallest lanterns, and replaced them with hanging pink carnation balls of the same size, hung from black ribbon.

Stephanie and Justin

Stephanie and Justin were married at The Aerie at Eagle Landing Golf Course on June 29th. Now that you see the yellow and green wedding colors, I will answer your question: Yes, they are Oregon Ducks fans! It was a fun palette to work with, which was softened by adding touches of charcoal grey.

Stephanie's bouquet was made of white and yellow garden roses, green ball dianthus, and mini green hydrangea. The stems were wrapped with a vintage velvet charcoal ribbon.

Bridesmaid bouquets were mini green hydrangea and gorgeous yellow garden roses. The stems were wrapped with charcoal velvet ribbon.

The boutonnieres all consisted of yellow freesia, green button mums, and green hypericum berries. The boutonniere stems were also wrapped with charcoal velvet ribbon.

Mother's corsage of mini green hydrangea, green hypericum berries, and a yellow garden rose. Stems wrapped with charcoal velvet ribbon.

The proud parents!

Congratulations to the newlyweds!
