Labor Day Weekend (sorry, I am so behind in posting my pictures) I got to do some amazing flowers. The bride carried a bouquet of "Yves Piaget" garden roses and green cymbidiums. It smelled as good as it looked! I think those garden roses are my new favorites.
The ladies all lined up. The vases for the bridesmaids were line with ti leaves, and the bouquets were used as table centerpieces, and economical use of your flower budget. The bouquets get to do double-duty as flowers for the bridesmaids and everyone gets to enjoy them during the reception, too. 
The bride wanted all the tables to be different, I love that. I used different heights and styles of vases for each table.
Krystal Mann, of Mint and Sage Photography, did the pictures for this wedding, and has posted her photos. Go check them out on her latest blog entry.
Governor's Club - Fuchsia Pink and Lime Green (Cheery for the Cherrys)
Asian Influence, Ivory and Mahogany
The bride carried Polo roses, calla lilies and stephanotis.
A close-up.
The centerpieces featured a collection of roses with stephanotis and curly willow off-center on a mahogany-stained plank and accented with black stones.
The buffet centerpiece. I love the curly willow flowing out the top of the arrangement. So striking!
My flowers are on Southern Weddings!!!
The wedding I did at Carnton Plantation was featured on the Southern Weddings blog! How exciting!

Carnton Plantation Beauty
This past weekend I did a wedding at Carnton Plantation in Franklin. Besides my flowers looking just lovely (as always), the grounds were AMAZING! I have never seen the garden so full, green and in bloom! The weather was just right - 80's, sunny, no humidity, and a cool breeze all afternoon.
The bride carried ivory roses and white hydrangea, the bridesmaids carried yellow roses in really sweet tussy-mussy holders. Each silver holder had a little chain and name plate on them, a keepsake for the bridesmaid. Very thoughtful!
Tin buckets of white hydrangea graced the tables.
The guestbook table had an arrangement of roses, orchids and hydrangea.
I loved these lanterns. They marked the back end of the aisle, and I love cascading flowers out of them. Such a romantic feel.
Lovely White, Green, and Cornflower Blue
I love that here in the South there are so many historic places where you can get married. This bride got married at Oakland Mansion in Murfreesboro. The grounds are spectacular, and they have a really nice kitchen and indoor reception area.
The bride carried a lovely hand-tied bouquet of ivory roses, green hydrangea, freesia and waxflower dyed blue. I used to use tweedia, but found that it is really tempermental and the quality varies widely. Bridesmaids carried a simple bouquet of green hydrangea, a really sweet bouquet in my opinion. 
The flower girl in this wedding carried a sweet kissing ball of green hydrangea accented with waxflower.
Groom's Boutonniere: green hydrangea with waxflower accent.
Mother's corsage: ivory spray roses, green hydrangea, waxflower and ribbon.
I love floral cake toppers. Too, too sweet!
