Amy & Keith

Amy & Keith were one of the most delightful couples we've worked with. They and a small group of friends flew down from Canada for an intimate ceremony at Hans Fahden Winery followed by a reception at Kelham Vineyards. Their photographer, Anna Kuperberg just sent over some shots from the wedding and they are beautiful... thought we'd share this beautiful late summer wedding with you.

Mock Up in the Studio

Something we offer all of our clients is the opportunity to see their vision and our vision come to life before the event... in the form of a mock up. Mock ups are one of our favorite studio activities. We get to browse the flower mart for pure inspiration, selecting botanicals for their color and textures, and come back to the studio and create a table setting full of gorgeous arrangements and fun props. An excited bride arrives to see a glimpse of what her wedding table will look like. Today we worked on a mock up for a wine country wedding with an Autumnal palette. It was wonderful to see the hot yellows and oranges, and sleek grasses in the studio after a summer full of pinks and whites and imagining the October colors helped deter the heat of the day!

Rustic Wedding

A wedding we worked on with Amorology was recently featured on Inspired by This.  Travel themed decor and details paired with a palette of rich autumnal hues made for a beautifully crafted wedding in the Berkeley Hills. Check out the full story here.

Bouquet of the Month!

 

This is the time of the year for one of THE most popular wedding flowers ever! Although I started seeing some peonies here and there in the last month, they are finally coming in strong. The flower market is filled with thousands of them in beautiful shades of pink, white and coral.

Due to our latest clients request to give this traditional bouquet a bit of a modern twist we did so by adding some bright orange ranunculus (another Spring favorite).

Very simple but stunning! I officially declare this bouquet that I have created as one of my favorites!
