Intimate Family Wedding

Love comes at all times in life and is always worth celebrating. Julie and Smiley live in SD but planned a destination wedding in Sheridan where Julie raised her children. They were married at the Historic Sheridan Inn last March with their families and friends there to celebrate. We used lots of eucalyptus, classy calla lilies, succulents and sweet roses for the bouquets created by yours truly and DIY centerpieces put together by Julie and her daughters ahead of the party.

I’m always a fan of couples who make the day their own and love her skirt+denim combo.

I often try and fail to capture bouquets and flowers at home. Time is short or lighting isn’t ideal, the studio is a mess or I’m simply too tired after a day creating. I’m so grateful for the professionals I work with who capture details for me like Mandy with M.C. Picture Company!

I did happen to capture a few shots just before sending these beauties out the door and this little petite bouquet shot has been one of the most popular this year!

The perfect petite bouquet for the maids! Filled with three kinds of eucalyptus and a single gorgeous rose.

This little beauty get’s a closeup.

Succulents and Calla Lilies tucked into loads of eucalyptus for the bride.

A prairie meets mountain wedding

These two grew up in Sheridan but fell in love while living on the East Coast. They came home for a celebration with their families and friends for a late summer wedding with a mountain and prairie theme. With lavender and dried prairies grass as our color scheme, I had free reign to bring in all the lovely textures August has to offer. 

It was a treat to wander a piece of property owned by the bride's family and pick native grasses and other local greenery to mix into her bouquet. In all, the bridal bouquet featured over 20 different flowers, grasses and other greenery including lisianthus, Sahara roses and eucalyptus. 

They hosted a sweet ceremony on the Polo Fields at the Big Horn Equestrian Center followed by dinner and dancing under the lights. Even with the heavy wildfire smoke in the background the day was a beauty.

2017 - A thank you

Three years ago this December I made the best decision ever - to move to Wyoming and marry a handsome man I met on an airplane. At the time I wasn't sure what would happen to my flower dream and Whirly Girl Flowers but I was willing to risk it all for love.

Last December, after a few big life changes (moving from Boston, getting married, buying a house, having a baby) I decided it was time to take the leap and introduce my love of flowers to Sheridan, WY and see what was possible. 2017 has blown me away and exceeded all of my hopes and dreams. It wouldn't have been possible without you!

I started with a series of Pop-up shops at Twisted Hearts on Main St. These monthly events gave me the opportunity to share my favorite flowers (hello roses and ranunculus!) while meeting lots of new flower friends. Pam has been an incredible encouragement this year and gave me a beautiful space to meet all of you! She's always willing to listen to my ideas and cheer me along as I reach for my dreams. She gave the best introduction I could have asked for in Sheridan, WY.  Did you stop by, say hello and pickup flowers? I am so thankful you did!

To my 2017 brides - you trusted me with a little piece of your wedding day and I'm so grateful for you. I loved meeting you, listening to your plans and creating something to accompany you on your big day. The best part of my job is handing a bride her bouquet and watching  her face light up with joy. The very first bride to book Whirly Girl this year is getting married in just a few weeks and I can't wait!

In a year of meeting new people and trying new things I launched a series of classes this November. Without a public space of my own I'm thankful for the partnerships I've built with local business and the opportunity to use great spaces at The Union at the Montgomery and Luminous Brew House for causal gatherings with friends and loads of flowers while we create arrangements.  Interested in hosting a flower party? I'd love to plan one with you. 

I'm looking forward to 2018 with big dreams; plans to learn more, create more beauty and build a community in Sheridan around flowers. If you're planning a wedding or a party or simply want to learn more about flowers- I can't wait to meet you.

A Sheridan Wedding in Burgundy and Navy

These two lovebirds had the sweetest wedding with their friends and family here in Sheridan, WY,  with an outdoor ceremony at Cornerstone Church, pictures at Kendrick Mansion and dinner downtown. They incorporated hand-tied fly-fishing ties for boutonnieres and some of the brides favorite flowers. I helped plan and provided them with bunches of fresh blooms for their DIY centerpieces which their friends helped assemble into arrangements ahead of the wedding. The best of everything!

A Big Horn Mountain Wedding

When I heard about the party Sean and Anastasia planned in the Bighorn Mountains, I was excited to be a part of it. A weekend of fun with their friends and family, a ceremony near the river followed by dinner and dancing under the trees. 

They wanted florals to match the mountains in June - lots of texture, bursting with green and just a hint of color. After describing their vision, they gave me free reign to make something perfect for them.
