Chinoiserie Editorial

Something blue, steal my heart! This was a wonderful collaboration of southern style last month in North Augusta. My favorite part is the gazebo installation. It’s no secret that we have a natural and organic style, so what could be better than building a flower meadow as a backdrop for your ceremony?!

I couldn’t share these photos without giving a shoutout to all of the local women-led businesses that pulled this together. Please do me a favor and check them out!

Emerald Green Wedding in Downtown Augusta

These two tied the knot on the rainiest day we had had in a while, but you certainly can’t tell by looking at these photos! We used a mix of neutral tones and deep emerald greens to match the bridesmaid dresses and other decor. I will admit I was a little nervous with their wedding being on Valentine’s Day weekend AND upon learning the mother of the bride was a former florist, but it all came together so well!

A Surprise Proposal at the Gazebo

A surprise proposal?! Be still, my heart! Those close to me know that I was proposed to in a car… a smart car… driving across Arizona after Christmas. It was not planned out and romantic, it was a conversation in a really tiny and enclosed space. Anyway, it all worked out and I’m just melting over these photos!

Plum and pink helleborus, white tulips and stock flower, pink sweet peas, and a whole ‘lotta love.

Valentine's Portrait Session

Some of my favorite local wedding vendors came together nearly a year ago to put on a styled portrait session. This shoot was inspired by valentine’s day and it was nothing but fun! It only seems fitting to share as we are only 6 days away from the annual day of love. Enjoy the gallery below and go hug a florist (or give them a distanced high five) - we need it!

Blush clooney ranunculus, pink heather, dianthus (the green Lorax-looking thing), hot pink mini carnations, ivory spray roses, and abelia foliage.

Falling in Love at the Museum of History

One of my favorite autumnal color palettes, hands down! Warm and romantic fall tones pulled together these wedding florals seamlessly. We faced a venue change last minute but pulled out all the stops to make this come together with the help of all the other vendors.

You’ll see our arbor, gold compotes, and votive holders throughout the photo gallery.

Campanella peach roses, white akito roses, Juliet garden roses, leather leaf fern, nandina foliage, italian ruscus, smilax vine, pink, burgundy, and peach spray roses, seeded and silver dollar eucalyptus, purple astrantia and scabiosa, and white astilbe.

South Boundary Bridal Portraits

Peach shimmer roses, blush majolica spray roses, white akito roses, silver dollar and seeded eucalyptus, and dusty miller.
