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!
