This wedding has all the feels for me. It was classically beautiful, timeless, and full of refined, natural beauty. When working in an indoor ballroom, it is always my goal to bring it to life! Emily of Bella Events & Design and I did just that by bringing in over 40 aspen trees that had […]

Kristi & James’ Aspen wedding was a career highlight for me.  Every moment spent planning with Kristi and James and Amber of Banks & Leaf was a delight because they are really the most delightful people.  This wedding left me wanting more (Vow renewal?).  It was the best combination of design dreams come true plus […]

True story:  One of our favorite client families to work with of all time called us to design their second daughter’s wedding (which is is always such a compliment and treat!  See their other daughter’s wedding here).  We were thrilled to get another opportunity to work with them.  Then!  Their venue had to shut down […]

I’m so excited to share this lovely shoot today!  The inspiration behind the photoshoot was the idea of a gloomy spring day…mixing the moody and sophisticated backdrop of The Kitchen Upstairs with a cheery spring color palette of whites, greens, and yellows and using spring florals like tulips viburnum and blooming branches.  Polka dots were […]

I don’t even know where to begin in describing this shoot.  I think as a floral designer, my greatest desire is to be able to document the work that we do.  So often in a wedding setting, this just doesn’t happen.  There are often reasons outside of our control or the photographers control for not […]

This weddings rocks.  My favorite thing about it was working so closely with the bride and her very design-savvy mother.  By the end of the planning process, I felt like I had made some great new friends.  It was just one of those special ones that leaves a lasting impression and a good feeling that […]
