For Megan’s bouquet, we used an array of delicate flowers to create a lush, semi-organic bouquet. Blue delphinium, White O’Hara Garden Roses, Peach Fuzz spray roses, and green lisianthus were artfully arranged to complement her fit and flare gown.

Sweet Queer Wedding at Theatre Squared: Floral Lapels and Pocket Squares

Last year I designed for an amazing elopment photoshoot at Stone Chapel at MattLane Farm. It featured two amazing grooms, beautiful white blooms and a whole lot of love. Allyship is incredibly important to us at Rose of Sharon so we are truly grateful to all of our queer couples for entrusting us to design for your special day.

Miles and Quincy saw the shoot we did on Instagram and loved the vibe! Next thing you know, we’re designing for their July 2024 wedding at Theatre Squared in Fayetteville.

For Shannon’s bouquet, we used White Ashley Garden Roses, stock ranunculus, and anemones. To add texture, we intertwined dollar eucalyptus and seeded eucalyptus with the fluffy blooms! Blue delphinium added the perfect touch of something blue to bring the whole bouquet together.

Love Knows No Bounds Elopement at Stone Chapel at MattLane Farm

For this shoot, the amazing team at Brittany Bloom Events envisioned an amazing day focused on inclusivity, celebrating all forms of love. The beautiful, ivy covered Stone Chappel at MattLane Farm served as the glorious backdrop for our swoon worthy same-sex couple models Michael and Doug. Our role was to create an airy, ethereal ambiance for the shoot. As I shared in The Perfect Palette’s blog on this lovely day Celebrating Love’s Diversity in an Ivy Garden Elopement, “I wanted a whimsical but rich feeling, so I used a lot of lightweight summer flowers...lisianthus, ranunculus, open roses, gomphrena, stock & trailing amaranthus."

Sweet Blush and Cream Wedding at Stone Chapel at MattLane Farm

After years of hand-tied bouquets, these designs are gaining popularity because of the amount of artistry involved so I was stoked when Alisa wanted a cascading bouquet for her and Harrison’s big day at Stone Chapel at MattLane Farm.

Viva Magenta is Pantone Color Service’s 2023 color of the year! It’s a bright, sassy (hot) pink that is one of my favorite accents to add to pink bouquets. When Hayden came to me with inspo pics of lush magenta peonies with accents of peach and blush, I was tickled pink to bring the Rose of Sharon flair to her vision.

Ravishing Reds Wedding at Sassafras Springs Winery

Ravishing Reds Wedding at Sassafras Springs Winery

Red is arguably the 2nd most classic wedding color, with white (of course) taking the top spot. In the over 25 years I’ve been designing, I’ve loved seeing how red has evolved as a palette. For Max and Audrey’s, Fall nuptials at Sassafras Springs Winery, we created a gorgeous, modern take on red with shades of burgundy, purple, and pink. You might be thinking—those colors aren’t red? Well, technically they’re not, but they’re all in the (red) family!
