Warm Toned Autumn Wedding at The Garden Room
One thing I love about my job is that no wedding, no couple is alike. That means I get to be creative in a different way for each event I design for. I feel especially lucky when a client gives me free reign—within reason—for their big day. Brooke brought me photos of my own work (so flattering) and asked for muted, early fall tones. The palette was perfect for her early November wedding to Jacob at the beautiful Garden Room here in town. The free reign part, you ask? She said I could choose any flowers as long as they were in her color palette! I was so excited to design her autumn fantasy.

Warm Fall Wedding at Plentywoods Event Center
Spring may just have started, but I am in the thick of planning for my Fall 2024 weddings. What a perfect time to look back on Carly and Scott’s big day in early November at Plentywoods Event Venue. They chose a Multi-faceted color palette for their day, meaning the bride & groom’s flowers featured one color palette while the wedding party flowers were designed with a different, but coordinating palette. Using 2 palettes is a wonderful way to set you and your boo apart while also getting to embrace more colors. Read on to learn how we brought their vision to life!
White Rose and Gypsophila Wedding at Willow Brooke Farm
White roses and gypsophila, more commonly known as baby’s breath, will always be an eternal choice for weddings. Lately, gypsophila has been having a bit of a wedding renaissance so I’m always happy to put the Rose of Sharon spin on this classic flower. For Michaela & Landon’s big day in late September, they wanted timeless white flowers to accompany the beautiful natural landscape of their venue, Willow Brooke Farm.
Inspiration vs. Interpretation: Classic White Round Bouquet with Something Blue
I ask almost every client for inspiration photos during the creative process. It helps me understand exactly what they are envisioning for their wedding. When Shannon reached out and asked me to dessign for her and Brent’s intimate nuptials at Cooper Chapel, she actually brought me a picture of my own design! I was so flattered! She loved everything about it, but wanted to add a touch of something blue.
Inspiration vs. Interpretation: Classic Fall Bouquet
Creating a wedding based on an inspiration photo is an artistic process that requires a delicate balance between replication and innovation. As an artist, my aim is not to duplicate the inspiration directly but to capture its essence and translate it into a unique, personal experience.
The Evolution of Wedding Flowers: Pastels & Neutrals
The Henry Sisters—Andria, Alyssa, and Karah have all been married within the past 15 years and they all had pastel and neutral flowers as a focal point, but in their own way and reflecting the trends of their wedding time. Let’s dive into the details and see which wedding fits your vibe the most.
White Garden Rose Wedding with Something Blue at Osage House
I love putting a fresh, modern spin on the classics. For Chandler and Jacob’s wedding at the grand Osage House, they envisioned a classic white color palette with something blue. Think timeless, white blooms with a special pop of color!
For Chandler’s bouquet, we used an array of delicate flowers in white: garden roses, anemones, and ranunculus. The something blue was pale delphinium, gray-blue eryngium, and navy privet berry. It was lush and lovely and perfect with her off the shoulder gown!
White and Green Hydrangea Wedding at The Inn at Carnall Hall
For Mary Kate’s bouquet, we used white hydrangeas, tulips, and gardenias accented with crisp green salal. It was fluffy and ethereal and complemented her classic strapless A-line gown perfectly. The bridesmaid’s carried matching, smaller bouquets featuring only hydrangeas and next to their pale blue dresses, they looked like beautiful floral clouds. For Perry’s boutonniere we designed with a single white gardenia bloom and his groomsmen’s featuring white ranunculus.
Toffee Rose and Dried Flower Wedding at Chapel on the Creeks
Something I love observing is how neutral wedding flowers evolve over the years. There’s everlasting white and green for sure, but other more neutral colors trend in and out of fashion. This year, a toffee/cappucino colored rose is becoming popular and I love it for any time of year. For Karah and Jordan’s wedding at Chapel on The Creeks, they wanted toffee roses with dried floral accents and I couldn’t wait to get designing!
