Recent Events

I know, its been too LONG! I can't believe I havent posted pictures since September...what a bad blogger! Ironically, I'm better at keeping up with my personal blog...but who doesnt love cute kid? ;-}~
Most of the new photos I have that are some recent work have been taken with my iphone camera- so excuse the not so wonderful shots! Sometimes if I forget my camera, all I've got is my camera phone since very few clients send us photos and trying to get pictures from photographers is like pulling teeth! (HINT HINT- send us photos!!!!!!!!)

White Roses, Green Cymbidiums, Monkey Tails, Green Kermit Poms, Apricot Mini calla lilies, white freesia and variegated pittsporum


White Roses, White Hydrangea, Coffeeberry, Green Cymbidium Orchids and variegated pittsporum (greenery)


Arbor decor at the Tribute (green cymbidiums hanging by brown satin ribbon)




Gazebo Arrangement at the Tribute
Apricot Spray Roses, Green Belles of Ireland, Bear Grass, White Oriental Lilies, white dendrobium orchids, Green Jade Roses, Monstera Leaves, Aspidistra Leaves and Italian Ruskus


Another Wedding at the Tribute (Christmas time) Cube vases with green pittsporum, coffeeberry and Red Roses


My Niece's 1st Birthday Party
She's a little wild (lol) no really, my sister just loves pink and zebra- so we ran with that for my niece's birthday party theme- who says you can bring zebra print into a flower arrangement? Rilee had the wildest 1st birthday party around! (not to mention who has a professional (me) decorator design their birthday decorations?) Yes we do those too!
All we used was Fuchsia roses and tulips


Kim's Wedding at the Old Red Courthouse
Purple Hydrangeas, Purple Tulips, Green Belles of Ireland


Not a great angle, but Purple Stock, Lavender Tulips and Wheat Grass


Wedding at the Worthington in FW
Our wrought iron tabletop candelabras (no candles here) covered with solid flowers using gerbers, hydrangeas, hanging amaranthus, larkspur, roses and variegated pitt


Our shorter (18" wrought iron) table top candelabras using bear grass, gerbers, roses and variegated pitt


Warning- Very bad picture- it was taken with my phone IN our cooler! We do an annual christmas party for an Insurance Company and we do different designs each year- this year we did "silver bells" using Green Belles of Ireland and shaped into a Christmas tree on a silver stand with silver bells and silver ribbon- they came out very cute!


LOVED this bouquet! Its solid White Mini Callas, White Freesia and White Stephanotis- the freesia came in absolutely amazing this particular week- the blooms were huge and totally blew me away! too bad the picture doesnt do the bouquet justice!


Sign In Table Arrangement- LOVE this one-- Green Belles of Ireland, White Calla Lilies, and Blue Hydrangeas- everyone needs a huge dramatic sign in table like this!!

Georgette's Wedding

June 2007

Another wedding that will stick out in my mind- i think the flowers came out AMAZING! I praise Tiffany on this wedding- she worked with Georgette on this one and totally blew my mind with how she designed things! (She's keepin' me on my toes now!) The pictures just don't do it justice, but I think this wedding belongs in a magazine!!

Flowers we used: Hydrangeas, Lisianthus, Belles of Ireland, Roses, Stock, Ivy, and Tiffany's all time favorite...hanging amaranthus!

The candelabras are our new table top candelabras we purchased back in the spring- this is with minimal floral decor- they are beautiful with elaborate scroll work! The dark urns and columns are new as well, and so far my favorite!

Beautiful photos taken by yours truely!

Keeli's Wedding

Keeli's wedding was one I will definitely never forget! (actually its very hard for me to forget one, however her's will stand out in my mind forever!)
Ceremony Location: Marty Leonard Chapel
Reception Location: Modern Art Museum in FW
Photographer: Lynn Michelle

Keeli really let me run with my artistic flair on this one, she was gutsy, but put her trust in me! I think it paid off! The wedding was so chic and stylish, i think the flowers showed that up as well! We used a nice mix of white, ivory, champagne and sage green for her bouquet using hydrangeas, cymbidium orchids, freesia, roses, mini calla lilies and spray roses. The bridesmaids each carried a different color of hydrangea (pink, purple, green, white and blue) which i think looked amazing with their different style of black dresses! The part that i loved the most- Keeli gave me a roll of wrapping paper that was a beautiful black and white print- she used this paper as the lining on the inside of her invitiations, so we carried it thru on the square vases for the reception as well! I think it pulled things together SO well and added such a cool touch to the simplicity of hte hydrangea arrangements!!

Keeli's Rehearsal Dinner

Keeli wanted something fun and different and she loved Asters (these are Matsumoto Asters) so I did fun and different for Keeli! Peas are such a fun touch (although they kinda stink while working with them!) and the color makes all flowers stand out!

Nicole's Wedding

May 5th 2007
Nicole's Wedding was at Paradise Cove in Southlake, the rain held out for an outside wedding (horray!) Nicole was just absolutely stunning, and her flowers only complimented her!
We used Green Hydrangeas, Apricot Mini Calla Lilies, Stargazer Lilies, "Sweet Unique" Roses, Pale Yellow Tulips and white Stephanotis for Nicole's Bouquet. The Bridesmaids were simiar but no Stargazers and no hydrangeas, but instead had Green Hypericum berries.

Photography was done by McNosky Images & SDS Photography- they did BEAUTIFUL work! (of course I'm biased!)
