One of the first weddings of this season was Aaron and Kim's at the fabulous Citizen Hotel in downtown Sacramento. I love the vintage vibe of this venue. The photography is by truelovephoto.com/blog For the bride we did solid black and white anemones, then wrapped the stems in silver and finished it off with rhinestone broaches.
Aaron is an engineer, I have soft spot for engineers, I married one! He constructed the ceremony structure, it looked gorgeous in the Citizen ballroom. I then hung strands of orchids to create a floating flowers.
We have come along way from the flower girl tossing a few petals! Take a look at this gorgeous creation from one of my top designers. While I was busy working the orchid strands, I gave him a general idea of what I wanted, and wow, he out did himself.
I am so excited to share this slideshow with you, I should wait until I have images from the wedding as well, but I just coudn't. The fabulous Beth Bauer of truelovephoto.com was the photographer, she did a magical job!
My office mate, and good friend, Stephanie of stephaniejdesigns.blogspot.com created these Twilight movie inspired invitations. She made these for a girls night out, but I think they would be fabulous for the bride who wants her wedding to be a little on the sexy side!
Who says vases have to be standard??? This lady adds a bit of vampy style to the cocktail hour.
Lower the lights! There is nothing more romantic than candle light!
Don't be afraid to go out on a limb with linens, these furry table tops are out of this world
