M+M! This fun, vibrant couple shared my love of the Pacific Northwest and FERNS, and requested lots and lots of them. Can do, my friends! Their venue is a gorgeous wooded and perfectly landscaped property just 15 minutes outside the city, full of lush plants and a peaceful feel without the long drive. The ferns fit right in among the towering trees. Their designs prioritized local blooms, included tons of dahlias, cosmos, roses and so much more. Their happy color palette set the tone for the killer party they threw for all their guests.

Lush, colorful, elegant, wildflowers… you name it, this wedding HAD IT. All the personal touches and the joyful color palette was so true to them and felt so authentic. One of my favorite days at the classic Lairmont Manor. Don’t forget to check out PeeWee, the cutest little pup of honor!

Sherry and Brian are both fans of The Addams Family vibes an October wedding is great for, and wanted to incorporate this theme into their florals (but with their own special touch, of course!). We used black feathers, deep burgundy dahlias, black calla lilies, purple jewel-toned roses and carnations, monkey tail ferns and the most perfect blackberry sorbet scabiosas to round it all out. The result is something unexpected, completely unique, and totally Sherry and Brian. This day was chock-full of personal elements, read on to see them all!

Sierra and Daunique’s stunning wedding featured lots of PNW-inspired floral vibes with just a splash of tropical flair. Showcasing local dahlias from our outstanding flower farmers, stock flowers, specialty roses and anthuriums, this coral and peach toned palette fit in perfectly with their venue. These two were so fun to work with and trusted the floral process, something I am always endlessly thankful for!

A+G had a vision for super bright, colorful florals to embody a wildflower field for their beautiful day. They asked for a “living photo booth backdrop” to climb up the tree at Lairmont Manor and I was up for the challenge! We chose mechanics that would cause no harm to the tree; not one screw, nail or spike was placed into this old friend, only chicken wire and fishing line were used to create this installation. Looking back on these photos brings me so much JOY, such a gorgeous day.

Some dreamy florals for a super sweet couple! Located at one of my favorite Skagit Valley venues, Santucci Farms, these flowers complemented the gently rustic converted horse barn of the venue as well as the lovingly curated gardens. L chose grounded neutrals for their color palette; creams, red-toned burgundies, peaches, whites, textural elements and swaying grasses. Peaceful, easy and a great accent to the feel of the day. All family members were genuinely happy to be in each other’s company, helping to create a perfect day for this couple. Just a lovely experience all around.

This is one of the most thoughtfully planned weddings I have ever had the joy of designing for. A+S hit quite a few speed bumps on the road to navigating COVID reschedulings, but the magic came to life in October in the most beautiful way. Piles of garden roses, dahlias, and tons of fresh greenery helped set the romantic overtones of the day and joined these two kind humans as they celebrated with their loved ones.

The sweetest couple, the cutest doggos, and a peaceful forest venue set the tone for this beautiful day at Beau Lodge in Bow, WA. This family was one of the most welcoming groups of people I have ever had the pleasure of working with, there was no shortage of offers to help me while I worked (even from other vendors!). That spirit of community filled the whole venue with love and joy, and ensured a wonderful start to E+D’s brand new life together.
