Texas Country Wedding

We had the pleasure of working with Robyn and Randy for their March 2011 wedding at Randy's family's farm near Winchester, Texas. So many great details made for a delightful, laid back and fun wedding.
Robyn's bridal bouquet featured sunflowers, white waxflower, goldenrod and fiddle head ferns. We especially loved that the Groom hand painted on barn wood oh so cute directional signs all along the the country drive to the family farm as well as on-site. Ceremony this way, reception, that way...beer this way, etc. These fabulous photos were provided courtesy of Third Coast Photography. http://www.thirdcoastphotography.com/

Bride's cake was by A Wedding Cake Moment in Smithville.

What a majestic old oak tree to provide a backdrop for this beautiful sunset ceremony!
Sweet and sassy bridesmaids sported tiffany blue dresses and cowboy boots.

Bride and groom seal the deal. That's daisies on the ground beneath them. We created a scattered daisy trail all the way from the gate, down the aisle and ending in a puddle at the altar. Sweet sweet little flower girls carried wooden berry buckets full of daisy heads.
Gentlemen's bouts featured goldenrod, delicate oncidium orchids and a fiddle head accent. A raffia knot provided just the right touch of casual detail.

Wish I could take credit for these great hay bale sofas! What fun! The throw pillows feature the couple's 'brand' (Robyn & Randy).
One of our many rental pieces, we provided a whimsical directional 'wedding' sign.
Here comes the bride! We attached daisy heads to ribbon to dress up an existing arch and mark the entrance to the 'wedding field'.
Iron trees held single sunflower heads and hanging votive candles.
Among the many cute details, bride & groom provided dyed popcorn and wrapped utensils in sunshine yellow bandanas.

Austin's Shoreline Grill Wedding

We had the honor or designing a fabulous wedding ceremony for Paige's wedding at the Shoreline Grill.  The existing pergola structure gave us a headstart, so it was a fairly simple matter (tell that to my crew that hoisted these heavy pieces up for me!).  Orchids and greenery sets the stage for this tropical visual delight in fuchsia, pink and acid green!
 Rather than lighting unity candles, we assisted our couple in designing an elegant sand ceremony.  The table was one of our all glass creations so it wouldn't obstruct the Shoreline Grill's beautiful scenery.
 Corsages and bouts were luxe green cymbidium orchids with accents of pink calla lilies.
 Bride's bouquet was a ruffly beauty with white peonies, fuchsia peonies, fuchsia mokara orchids and white cymbidium orchids.
 Beautiful altar arrangements featured submerged cymbidium orchids, hundreds of roses, phalaenopsis orchids and soaring white calla lilies with bells of Ireland.

 A heat tolerant choice for the Shoreline's dramatic stone steps included pave'd carnations and submerged Bells of Ireland. 


 We designed a collection of blooms for the guest tables.  A profusion of fuchsia mokara orchids in one vase complemented the lower lush arrangements of hydrangea and cymbidium orchids.
We orchestrate exceptional events all over the state and are available for travel!
