A Black and White Wedding at the Brinton Museum
Jake and Audrey planned a glamorous black and white wedding at The Brinton Museum in August. The ladies all in black dresses of their choosing, the men wearing dark charcoal suits with skinny black ties. The amber glass jars she picked for the reception sparked my imagination and helped me pick a few unique flower and foliage choices for her bouquet.
Audrey provided me with some inspiration and general color preferences and left the rest up to me. We planned to keep the design neutral in color with deep greens, incorporating her favorite eucalyptus and large garden roses. She trusted me with the rest, and I even used gorgeous, warm beige-colored carnations as a base for bouquets. Thinking of candlelight shining through her amber glass, I added gold kangaroo paws to mimic the flame. They were a favorite with everyone.
Fun trivia - the bride, myself, and their photographer all graduated from Colorado State University - Go Rams!!
I'm forever grateful to Cassie Rosch, Photographer, for capturing every glorious angle of the flowers and sharing them with me.

For their ceremony under the trees, the groom’s father made a modern steel arbor to frame the space. His creation was a surprise to both the bride and groom, who saw it for the first time on their wedding day. Adding spectacular flowers was a dream.
Whenever possible, I encourage couples to choose a table linen other than the standard white. The simple change to black table cloths with the added amber glass and dark greenery made these tables pop.
Congratulations!

World Traveler's Destination Wedding in Wyoming
That happy, just married glow.
When I initially spoke with Amina, they lived in Chicago and were prepping for a big move to South Africa. It was a dream come true and something they’d both worked hard for.
In the meantime, they had a wedding to plan in Wyoming - a place she’d never even been. Matthew grew up spending summers at the Historic Eaton’s Ranch just outside of Sheridan, WY and it was the perfect place to host their families for a simple destination wedding in Wyoming. We planned all her florals over email with a quick call before they left.
She wanted her custom gown from Alexandra Grecco to provide a canvas for her flowers. A bouquet of whites with lots of green and brown textures. I used white garden roses, dried poppy pods from my garden, green millet for texture and a variety of foliages including grevelia, eucalyptus, and ferns. We don’t have many local flowers but a single perfect love in a puff vine added the perfect finishing touch.

You can find their wedding featured by Alexandra Grecco here. When I asked Amina about her dress, she said it was simple and elegant and without embellishment. She wanted to the flowers to add stand out and shine. A bride after my own heart.

Mountaintop wedding at Meadowlark Ski Lodge
When your wedding starts with a ride to the top a mountain on a ski lift, it’s going to be a good day.
Back in March, I met the mother-of-the-bride during a styled shoot at Meadowlark Ski Lodge with a team from Rocky Mountain Bride. She was helping her daughter plan an elegant mountaintop wedding above the lodge in June and asked if I could provide bouquets. I couldn’t be more excited.
These lovebirds currently live in Boston and came home to Wyoming for their summer wedding with a view. During a phone call with the bride, we chatted about my favorite places to eat in Boston, the worlds best croissants and her flower dreams for the day. We planned lush and green bouquets with flowers in white to compliment the neutrals planned for the rest of the day. Anemones, ranunculus, veronica and white roses were the stars of the show.
