This past Sunday, Haley had her bridal portraits made at The Mansion on Judge's Hill in Austin. Dilemma, her bridal florist (that would be me) was headed to Dallas to State Convention on Friday. Solution: We had Haley's bouquet prepared on Friday and the gracious staff at The Mansion agreed to hold it in their fridge until Haley's arrival on Sunday. Worked like a charm. Haley loved it.
We prepare our brides' bridal portrait bouquets to be as close as possible to the actual ceremony bouquet so photographs are consistent. However, this dry run also serves its purpose to tweak anything the bride wants to change. In this instance, we asked Haley if she loved it, which she enthusiastically says she did, but she discovers that even though she loves and had requested all the bright colors, she also would like to see more white in her bouquet on the big day! Now we know!
Haley's wedding will be at the Hyatt Lost Pines Resort & Spa and we will post some fabulous photographs, as this is sure to be an event to behold. We call her look 'dripping with southern romance'. Custom made candelabras, oodles of crystals and southern charm blooms in vivid colors...oh what fun! We look forward to this one not only because mother and bride have let us design to our heart's content, but they are both lovely ladies and a true pleasure to work with.
Did I mention...? .....I love my job!!
