Summer’s Sweet Simplicity
Oh yellow white and green, how do I love thee, so fresh and so cleanclean, and yet soft like a field of dandelions… well, Jamie & George knew how to do it right- from ultra fun bridesmaid dresses and mexican fiesta beer on the patio, to Lady Dottie and the Diamonds for a live band reception.. their ecologically conscious wedding was a hoot. Thank you for the amazing photos Susan Yee for En Pointe Photography. Sweet satisfaction- white lilac and … Read more

Melanie and Anthony are such naturally nice people, it’s beautiful to see them together.. No lack for yellow here 🙂 Yellow orchids, freesia, calla lilies, dahlias, and fern for a wild and organic look. I love the fresh combo of shiny stem green with goldy yellow and a clean matte khaki. I’m sure there’ll be more to see soon… thanks Melissa for the great pics!

More woodsy love..
Even though I love to post my un-pro shots right away, I usually can’t help but do a second post with the amazing pictures that come in from the many talented photographers I get to work with- so obviously when Pam Scott sent me a link to her blog with the photos of Kim & Gabe I was floored- the colors came out amazingly vibrant! Gabe’s boutonniere of golden james storie orchids and coral alstroemeria. Kim’s bouquet of mixed gerberas, … Read more

Summertime in the Woods
Kim and Gabe are a genuinely lovely, lovely couple- desiring only the brightest and most festive that summer has to offer, we went straight for the gerberas! All you see is neon amid a lush forest setting at the Mt. Woodson Castle in Ramona. The contrast was awesome, brought together by a touch of chocolate brown… Going in reverse order for this week’s post, we’ll start with the fun cake! Flowers would only add to the chaos of that cool … Read more

Lilac Love
Heather & Josh were married at the Quail Botanical Gardens. Now her family has a fun tradition of creating all their own centerpieces and wedding decorations- but the bouquet was a special piece she wanted done with care. Of course, lilac blooms being perfectly in season, we couldn’t be happier to oblige 🙂 Thank you to Sweet Monday Photography for the captured image. In further news, Heather from Amorology has posted many additional pics from Yia & Sal’s wedding, courtesy … Read more

Yia & Sal celebrated in the sweetest of locations, surrounded by beautiful rose bushes and blue tile mosaics, family and friends.. Fantastic color meld of peach-y apricot-y papaya-y hues with soft mocha browns in a base of creamy whites, greens, and anything naturally blending with the overall scheme. You know I love the color freedom! The composite table centerpiece with these adorable kraft paper numbers on a grapevine leaf, mercury glass votives, dinner menus, and florals. Soft green dusty miller … Read more
