Trying something new

I love a creative bride, one who can think and wants from “outside the box.”

This past Sunday, I met with a sweet potential bride, well, I hope client, because our personalities just meshed right together and I loved her style and creativity!!

Her overall style that she is envisioning is VINTAGE!! I’m all over this!!

So, today, instead of taking care of my Swiss Alps mountain range of laundry, my creative brain took over.

This bride is wanting to use some handmade flowers along with fresh. Awesome idea…awesome conversation pieces!! So excited to dive in to this little project…and let’s face it, a lot more fun than cleaning or folding laundry!!!

And that is exactly what I did…here is an image of one flower that I created out of corn stalk leaves with a black eyed Susan center ….

Getting caught up…Jessi and Josh

Here is a wedding that I did back in April of this year. A beautiful bride and her groom.

I have had the pleasure of knowing this bride since she was 2 years old. It had been a while since I had seen her…well, the last time I saw her was when she was 2…until about 4 or 5 few years ago. I was so excited to meet back up with her while she was in high school (and I was working with Young Life at her school!) My job with Young Life ended when I became a full time stay at home mom with the sweet additions of our twins, and our contact was over facebook. Then some time last year, I recieved a phone call, it was Jessi, asking if I would be interested in doing her wedding flowers. Of course I was!!! Early this year, we met up at my favorite restaurant, that I got the opportunity to introduce to Jessi!!…Amelie’s!! From there, we planned their beautiful wedding at Vesuvius Vineyards, Iron Station, NC. She is definitely one of those sweet souls that I want to always know!…at least see on facebook! 😉
