Laura Taylor is a very talented wedding photographer here in Victoria, so given her exposure to some of many talented floral designers here in Victoria, I was so flattered when she came to me for her bridal party flowers. What a treat it was working with her, and her bouquet was by far one of the most beautiful we have made this season. Many shades of pinks, creams, and peaches. So lovely just like her. There was a collection of some the best photographers around, both attending and shooting the wedding. Eunice Montenegro even flew out from Nova Scotia and teamed up with Christina Craft to capture this beautiful wedding. Can’t wait to see the many photos…..

We finished the stems off the bouquets off with a beautiful dusty pink satin ribbon and added beautiful braided details in grosgrain and chiffon.

 

 

 

 

A mediterranean wedding table and design was the order, and we turned to the fields and farms for this one. Using the deep rich colour of eggplant as our guide we piled high, grapes, plums, raddichio, figs and some scented jasmine among other things. Lot’s of earthy pots filled with herbs and greenery, as well as small hits of florals using roses, lisianthus, and yes babies breath. Gypsyphollia is used heavily over there, so we used it in mounds in an iron urn.

 

 

This wedding was an ode to the daisy! Daisies were used everywhere. This was one of the neatest bridal bouquets I have made all summer long. What treat to make a mass of white daisies into a beautiful and whimsical bouquet. The smile on Kathryn’s face when I dropped it off said it all. Her girls carried fabulous, bright and bold bouquets of gerbera daisies in 3 different colours.

The tables at Church & State were dotted with cheerful arrangements of the same daisies. The tables were marked and named by different photographs of Kathryn & Alex on their world travels. Jenna & Tristan were the photographers on this wedding and no one is more excited then me to see their version of this great couple and their wedding.

 

Wendy &  John were married at the beautiful Sooke Harbour House on a sunny September afternoon. Wendy and I corresponded entirely through email. The bouquets were designed and blooms chosen over a few exchanges, and we finally met on her wedding day when I dropped her bouquet off to her at the hair salon. I dont have a picture of her in her dress with her bridesmaids, but I know that the lovely Karen McNeil captured her and more, so keep checking her blog for photos. In the mean time more details of Wendy’s day.
