Dinner Plate Dahlias!

We were thrilled to see Wild Basin Lodge select us for Best Bridal Bouquet in Colorado! We had fun using things that are unexpected and unique to nature in their natural form to inspire the look and feel of this late summer wedding. The unique dinner plate dahlias were so gorgeous and fitting for the bride, Jenny, and her Colorado wedding.

A Mountaintop Wedding

It was stunning from the scenery to the couple; and the gown to the RED. The combination of everything is to DIE for.  So happy to be a part of this event with June Cochran Photography we could shout it from a mountain top! And according to this bride--being able to shout her love was a major inspiration! How sweet is that?!! Check it out at this link:

Isiah and Erin

The ceremony was held at the Vail wedding deck.  The bride and groom wanted a beautiful wedding structure but did not want to lose the beauty of the outdoor setting.  We created a beautiful birch structure filled with a profusion of yellow blooms including tigertail and oncidium orchids.  The stone seating terraces were laid out with an ombre of yellow floor cushions for guests to sit on.

The bride and groom chose a fabulous vibrant palette of buttercup yellow and lime green for their fete at the Four Seasons Hotel in Vail.  They wanted something a little different and we developed a unique design that combined Colorado rustic and elegance with a fun, contemporary urban touches.  We created this look by combining rich textural arrangements with surprising earthy floral touches like figs and clematis as well as introducing unexpected elements like birch table lamps with yellow lattice lampshades.  All three of the distinct floral designs had a beautiful assortment of luminaries provided by Illuminations Design Studio some of which were uniquely monogrammed with the bride and groom's initials.  Hundreds of larger luminaries were raised high above guests heads on large hanging wooden platforms.  The forest feel was continued by introducing four large hanging wooden platforms.  The forest feel was continued by introducing four large 12ft tall live scrub oak trees constructed by Indigo Sky. This feel transitioned onto the ceiling which was entirely covered with a soft amber leaf pattern courtesy of Fastlane Productions.

The bride and groom really wanted their guests to have a fun experience and they carried this theme into an activities room that exhibited a fabulous frame wall as well as a flip book and computer stations for uploading photos to social media sites.

Large 12ft trees, wooden bars and rustic yet contemporary furniture was used in the lobby to welcome the guests as they arrived from the ceremony.

This event was one of the masterpieces of the 2012 wedding season.  Thank you so much to Pam Drennan and Angie Johnson from Sapphire Celebrations, The Four Seasons Hotel, Indigo Sky, Eclectic Hive, Fastlane Productions, La Tavola Linens, Illumination Design Studio and the fabulous entertainment team.

And a big thank you to Jenna Walker Photography and Katie Thurmes.

Megan & Marc

Particularly in Colorado, there are so many vintage and rustic inspired brides it made it so much fun to work with Megan Toohey on her graphic and contemporary wedding at the Seawell Grand Ballroom at the DCPA.  Her color palette was a simple canary yellow and royal blue and her floral was constructed with profusions of a single type of bloom including calla lilies, orchids and roses.  The uniqueness of her design as created through the "tipped" floral pieces that were bundled and then placed in a structured grid on the table surface. The piece de resistance was the fabulous tulips designs that hung over the head table.  Over 700 yellow tulips in each acrylic box hung over their heads. It was an abundance of clean lines and pools of complementing colors and designs. The florals were beautifully accented with midnight taffeta table linens from La Tavola on a variety of table sizes along with Ghost Chairs and fabulous draping and uplighting done by the DCPA.  Catering was done by Epicurean and photography by Dana Romanoff. Thanks to Table 6 productions and Megan's beautiful vision the night was spectacular and truly beautiful.
