Andrea and Clay's Fall Enchantment-Utah Wedding Florsit

Where to start....Let's start out with a single word.

 ENCHANTING.

This is exactly the word that describes everything about Andrea and Clay's autumn wedding. They were married on September 15th, exactly 5 years after my own nuptials. I adore Andrea and Clay. They have such great style and the biggest hearts! 

Andreas colors of tangerine, teal, copper and chocolate were ideal for a fall wedding. We brought in unexpected elements that tied in with the couples proposal which took place in Lovelock, Nevada.  Skeleton keys, locks and copper chain were used as accents to adorn Andreas bouquet, Clays boutonniere and centerpieces.

Cabaret tables were simple but my favorite of all time. We accented them with a single pear, fresh figs and a skeleton key. It brought such a warmth to the event and was a perfect fall arrangment.

Clays boutonniere was made-up of a dahlia bloom, magnolia leaf and cinnamon stick accented underlined by a copper key and tied off with copper chain. LOVE! 

This bouquet makes my smile everytime I see it! This beaut consisted of various varieties of roses, antique blue hydrangea, chocolate orchids, cinnamon sticks, ranunculus, cosmos, artichokes, stonecrop, dahlias, green mist and strategically placed keys.

The tables were family style with a farmhouse feel for centerpieces. Instead or large focal pieces, we chose to use a peppered effect to bring in a harvest feel and keep the design casual but impactful. Large lanterns, copper vases and various fruits were placed down the center of the table which also held blooms and candles.

This wedding was SOO gorgeous! Mandy was a darling bride who's attention to detail was unsurpassed. She left no detail unnoticed. Her reception took place at an immaculate Millcreek home, owned by her grandfather. 

Mandy chose a palate of peach, apricot and robins egg blue. A dream!

Mandy's bouquet was one of my absolute favorites. It consisted of Juliet garden roses, peach and white ranunculus, poppies, spray roses and dusty miller. We tied it off with robins egg blue ribbon with tails and lace adornment.

How sublime is this buffet piece!!!?? Such a statement piece. The eremurus that I used was some of the prettiest I've seen!

Log Haven Wedding-Utah Wedding Florist

Natalie and her beau were married on a beautifully warm day earlier this spring. When I first met with these two, I could see the love that they had for each other. They were so great to work! They pointed me in the direction they desired for their flowers, which happened to be earthy and muted, but let me pretty much go from there. They trusted me completely and I couldnt have been happier with the outcome. Its weddings like these, that make my job worthwhile and bring me so much joy!

Here are photos of my work provided by Rebekah Westover Photography

Oooo this bouquet....I adore it!!! The shoot location called for a bouquet that had elements of casual charm and sophisticated beauty. I may be biased but I think I nailed it. I used organic elements like apricots, pears and cotton blooms, while adding texture with cafe dahlias, scabiosa, anemones, dusty miller, sea star fern, veronica, garden roses and pods.

The bridesmaids bouquets were asymmetrical designs that consisted of a single large cafe dahlia, anemone, veronica, sea star fern and hanging amaranthus.
