So Christine loves peonies and I love cake, so together on her birthday we are a good pair. Christine is one lucky girl for so many reasons but the biggest one of all has to be that her birthday just happens to fall in the perfect time of year for her favourite flowers; peonies, lily of the valley and rannuncullas. Corina Ludwig from Passion for Cakes is a master cake maker and I had her design this fantastic cake to go along with Christine’s favorite flowers. Every one should be so lucky as to have a cake made by Corina just once in their life. We celebrated this year at the fabulous London Chef Cooking School with an amazing dinner and a laughter filled evening of friends. Oh yeah…I brought the flowers, and Jenna Shouldice took the pictures.

Wedding Open House at Sea Cider





A few weeks ago we were asked by Christine Smart out at Sea Cider if we would like to participate in an open house with them and Truffles Catering to showcase some ideas for all their upcoming weddings. We just had to use 2 of our favorite coloured roses “Cherry Brandy” and “Latin Ambiance” along with some beautiful fresh green viburnum and some pale pink lisianthus. This palette was one of the 2 we had chosen the other was of course the classic and timeless white and green. This we accomplished with a simple and modern arrangement of white and green and Hydrangea. Of course we dragged Jenna Shouldice (nee Tye) to capture our work with her artistic eye and lens. Gosh we are so spoiled to have such enourmesly talented friends who are willing to shoot for us. We met with some wonderful people and look forward to being able to work with them in the future.

What a way to end our wedding season this year. Two of our most favorite people in the whole world, and without a doubt two of the most talented photographers we and many others have had the pleasure of working with got married today. What a day it was! The sun shone and the autumn leaves seemed to shimmer with extra brilliance as Tristan Shouldice married Jenna Tye under the garry oak tree’s in the garden of the beautiful Fireside Grill. Much will be recorded, written, photographed and blogged about this wedding as the room was filled with some of the best wedding photographers around. Not only were we lucky enough to be able to do the floral design for this wedding but both of our family’s attended with Vanessa’s daughter Lily as the flower girl /”photographer in training”. Lily and Kai, the ringbearer, got swept up in the photographer energy and a little photoshoot for themselves.
