Kathleen at the Waldorf Astoria {Utah Wedding Florist}

Kathleen was truly one of the sweetest, whole-hearted brides I have ever worked with. She is the epitome of courage and strength. Kathleen is a breast cancer survivor who's outlook on life is nothing short of amazing. 

When I usually meet with brides, most of the talk is centered around how perfect they want their day to be and what the decor look like. Rarely do I hear a bride tell me that, while she wants her wedding to be beautiful, the thing she yearns for the most is just being married to her soul mate. After all, isn't this the whole purpose of the planning? The Marriage. Her words truly hit home for me. 

Thanks to Jessica White Photography for the images!

Kathleen's nuptuals took place at the beautiful Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Park City, UT. A beautiful and upscale mountain retreat. 

A soft feminine bouquet was constructed out of peonies, garden roses, ranunculus, scabiosa, dusty miller and maidenhair fern. 

The railings of the church were adorned with salal garlands, tied up with streamers of organza ribbons. 

Ok how adorable are Kathleen's flower girls!? Instead of giving them baskets of petals, we choose to give them small posey bouquets for a grown-up feel. 

The cakes were probably one of my favorite aspects of the wedding. We placed large blooms of peonies, garden roses and accents ranunculus on each of the cakes.

Coral, Navy and Mustard Wedding- Utah Wedding Florist

Its been almost a year since the unique Utah wedding took place! Adrienne was married last summer at the beautiful  Red Butte Gardens. I completely adored Adrienne! She had such a great attitude and was so sweet. I also loved Adrienne's color palate of coral, navy and mustard yellow, which set the scene for a vibrant summer fete.

Adrienne's bouquet consisted of roses, calcynia, billy balls, dusty miller, 2 varieties of ranunculus, airbrushed seeded eucalyptus, zinnas, hypericu, berries and veronica. Adrienne had a plethora of vintage broaches that she wanted to use in the wedding somehow, so we chose to incorporate them throughout her bouquet. They fit in perfectly and added such a special reminder of her grandmothers. 

When I showed up the day of the wedding to begin my set up, I saw the most unbelievable paper suites EVER! Adrienne has chosen to go with a theme of honeycombs throughout her wedding which was tied in through the paper suites, colors of flowers and use of the honeycomb texture through chicken wire. All printed material was done by my amazing friend Mollie of Polka Dots & Daisies. She's pretty much a genius!

Even the cake adorned the honeycomb pattern!

Sam and Derek's Wedding

Sam and Derek's wedding was in the misdt of a freezing October day. Snow fell by the inches that day but Sam didnt let that get her down. She still adorned a vibrant smile!

The snow made for such beautiful wedding photos!

The sign in piece was made of various tall cylinders filled with water and added candles for warmth. Tall tapered candlesticks with glass holders reflected an abundance of light. We then accented with perfectly placed blooms.

Their wedding reception was held at Wolf Creek up Ogden canyonm. This place is amazing. Large windows lead to views of spanding mountains. It looked so magical with the snow blanketing the mountains and the warmth of the roaring fireplaces.

 The reception tables held two different kinds of cenerpieces. The first was a tall footed vase adorned with blooms like spray roses, garden roses, gold seeded eucalyptus, dusty miller, lisianthus  and the most beautiful cafe dahlias. The other tables held two mercury vases with the same florals.
