This lovely couple were married with a wash of beautiful colour. Alison wanted something bright, fun and vibrant for her bouquet and her bridesmaids bouquets. We chose to use one of our favorite colour pallete bright pinks, oranges, and greens. Below are some of our own photos, but it is well worth it to go and check out Montes Photography Blog to see the finished product!

Shelley and Blair were fantastic! They were keen to have a “riot” of colour and we were happy to oblige. Shelley asked for bright and bold blooms for her bouquet and handed us a challenge with the addition of strings of orchid blooms to her bouquet. They were married in the Lokier Gardens with a reception at the Uplands Glof Club to follow. We were thrilled to catch Shelley and her bridesmaids as they were getting ready to leave the Villa Marco Polo where they were having their pictures taken by the extremely talented Keri Coles. Thank you Shelley for allowing us to snap a few pictures of you for our records. Everyone looked beautiful, the cascading blooms of orchids looked perfect against the subtle beading detail of Shelleys gown and the bright pinks, oranges and greens of the bridesmaids bouquets really  ”popped” with the pewter coloured dresses that they wore. The guys looked brilliant in their celedon green vests and ties. We very much look forward to seeing the “real” thing through the lens of Keri! Check out her blog with a bit of a sneek peek  http://www.kericoles.com/blog Thank you again Shelley and Blair it was a treat for us to work with you!

We were asked by a few local photographers to do some floral arrangements for their booths in the Westcoast Bridal Fair. For Ute at Fotoart Photography we chose to do an explosion of colour in a simple white bowl, we used bright pink gerberas, orange rose, and fuscia orchids all accented with hits of lime green in viburnum and cymbidiums.

For Karen and Jen at Bella Boudoir we created a lush and sexy arrangement of hot pink orchids in mokara’s and phalenopsis accented with black feathers, crystals and lush folliage.
