{ luke & haley } june 21

There are so many things I love about floral arranging.  One of the main things that brings me great joy is having the chance to use unique, interesting plants and flowers.  All foliage and flowers are beautiful to me and an amazing creation - what a true blessing it is that God gives us the ability to use our imagination in working with His products!  

 I loved working with Haley because I could tell that she values beauty and was open to having something different at her and Luke's wedding.  She is lovely inside and out and I can't wait to see their wedding photos.

What a fun, sweet family!  I loved getting the chance to work with Baylee and her mama.  They had such a wonderful vision for this wedding so it was a pleasure to add our little bit.  The wedding was held out at Wolf Lakes on a beautiful day in June.  

Flowers were lush with creams and champagne - touches of wood and french blue were seen throughout.  Hanging bottles with blooms and lanterns decorated the alter pergola while tin lanterns hung down the aisle and then were used as additional centerpieces at the reception.

The family made this lovely wooden cross - a true treasure for the bride and groom.

{ jovel & sarith } june 14

It is wonderful, humble, sweet, couples like Jovel and Sarith that ground me when life get's busy and work is hectic.  They help me remember why we do this crazy job!  Thank you for blessing me you guys.  Jovel and Sarith celebrated with family and friends out at Tuscan Gardens.

When Evan's mom approached me last year, she said that they were planning Evan's wedding in the garden at their home and asked if I was available.  I was giddy with excitement, and said, "Yes of course!"  The Millers home is very lovely, it is perched on a small hill among acres of wheat - a wonderful spot for a wedding.  We could not have been more happy to play a small role as Evan and Ben celebrated with family and friends both near and far.  The whole event had a formal garden feel with lots of soft natural colors.  Evan's mom worked tirelessly all year preparing the grounds - everything turned out perfect.  Enjoy!

Me and my little peeps spent Mothers Day up in gorgeous Yosemite enjoying time as a family and also delivering wedding flowers to Michelle and Allan.  As we were leaving the park we were so lucky to catch this photo of the newlyweds from our car in the parking lot!  What an amazing backdrop.  They were married in the historic Yosemite Chapel and later celebrated with family and friends at the Ahwahnee Hotel.  Enjoy!

What do you get when a super cool interior designer plans her own wedding?  A super nervous florist!  I was so humbled and honored that Jenny Brooks would trust me with her flowers and some of the decor.  She was amazing to work with and has fabulous taste.  Of course collaborating with Lanny from the Linen Shoppe on all of the backdrops and rentals is always such fun too.  Enjoy!

The Brown Bunny team headed into downtown Fresno this past weekend for our first wedding at the historical Armenian Holy Trinity church.  Thank you to the Asadoorian and Mehas families for including us in the marriage celebration of Caitlan and Nicholas.  

We had a fabulous time doing all of these floral designs but more importantly love love loved working with Caitan and her mom Michelle.

Reception….

To anchor the room we created a tree structure out of poplar and birch trees that were up lit - four large tables extended outward providing seating for the bridal party and family members.  The effect was magical and lent a romantic feeling to the room.

Super cute sign by Julie for the bridal couch!  Love it!

My little kumquat tree was so excited to make the trek to the "big" city for Caitlin's wedding!  I used it as the anchor for this fun appetizer table arrangement.
