A heavy grey sky was the perfect compliment for this beach wedding. A color scheme of light blue, peach & white brightened up the shoreline this past Saturday. Lynnet and Steve said their vows in a sweet ceremony before a group of 75 family members and friends. Lynnet's bouquet was stunning. She had asked for a vintage-like bouquet filled with a  blend of fluffy blue hydrangeas, geraldine roses, white roses & greenery. I added some seeded eucalyptus and fresh ivy to bring the 'vintage' look into this bouquet. The bride's bouquet was wrapped in light blue ribbon and vintage ivory...

As in years prior, I was more than excited when I received a letter in the mail asking if I would be a floral participant in the annual Ocean City Art League's Sandcastle Home Tour. I sent my response letter back and waited to see which gorgeous home I would be assigned to decorate with a few beautiful flower arrangements. This year's home tour theme was "Looking back - moving forward". 5 of the homes featured on the tour were highlights from years prior. There were 6 other homes that were new to the tour for 2014. I was assigned...

The groom wore a small buttonhole boutonniere made of a single pink ranunculus, two strands of pink astilbe, a dusty...

Shannon & Vic's wedding was an absolute dream! I can't tell you how great it feels to know that a couple trusts you to make the decisions when it comes to their wedding flowers and decorations. I spent several winter nights snowed in and planning the arrangements and centerpieces for Shannon's wedding and would get super excited when she would email me back immediately telling me it sounded perfect. We bonded of BHLDN sample sales and bridesmaid dress styles. With a color scheme of corals, peaches, navy & gold... things just came together easily. Shannon's bouquet was a beautiful blend...

A color scheme of teal, fuchsia and ivory, a color-blocked bridal bouquet, and a wedding day of blue skies and high temperatures... perfect elements for a late summer / early autumn wedding in Ocean City, Maryland. Typically, I am a "more is more" kind of girl when it comes to wedding details - but when it came to Brenda & Francis' wedding flowers, "less is more" was completely the way to go. Their wedding arrangements were full, colorful and filled with texture, but still put off a classic vibe. Brenda's bridesmaids carried bouquets of rich white blooms and accents of...
