Compliments


I wanted to share a comment I received from a mother-of-the-bride of a past wedding. I dont always here back from my brides, so getting feedback like this makes everything we do worth it!

"One of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning was to choose Branches Floral. Amanda was so wonderful to work with. She is SO talented! We had general idea of what we wanted, but she was able to take our vision and carry it out even better than we could have imagined. Everything was beautiful and we loved her idea of the floral pomendar balls for the bridesmaids - super unique. On the day of the wedding she spent so much time at the venue making sure everything looked perfect. We received many compliments on the flowers. Thanks again Amanda for all your beautiful work!"

Amanda's Sundance Wedding


This wedding was B-E-A-Utiful. Amanda and Rowland were married on what started off to be a cold but sunny day in April and they ended their reception with a light snow fall. Utah weather is unbelievable but sure makes for good pictures! All the beautiful images are courtesy of Camilla Photography






Amanda has the best style. Her dress was nothing like i have ever seen before. She custom designed it herself. I seriously LOVED it so much! 



Her bridesmaids were the best dressed girls I have ever seen. Dont you love these dresses with the delicate lace?!









For the centerpieces we used two different types of vases. Half the tables were adorned by these tall tapered vases and the other half were small footed bowls filled with numerous full blooms.

Photography: Camilla Photography
