Yesterday was my last wedding of the season, a beautiful chic affair at the Grant-Humphreys Mansion in Denver. Congratulations to Sarah and Scott!
We did very dramatic centerpieces - a round, lush arrangement of white hydrangea and bright fall colored lilies, roses, orchids and callas with greenery, and trailing white orchids, atop a tall glass cylinder with submerged curly willow and a base of 5 white candles in cylinders of different heights. It turned out quite well. The maids held a simple clutch of 3 flame callas which popped on their black dresses and the gorgeous bride held a round nosegay of black magic roses and a few burgundy callas with accents of bluplurum and black scabiosa. The men wore simple orange or white orchid boutonnieres.
I look forward to doing more floral events next year after the arrival of my son (due 12/29/10). For now my focus shifts to that big event!
Thank you to everyone who helped me and supported my first year in business, including all my brides and clients (I will write more on the other weddings in upcoming posts), my helpful husband, my floral fairies Emily and Shanti, my friend Veronica who got the word out, my dear Darcy who assisted on the first wedding this year, and all my friends and family who cheered me on.
