Aimee and Alex were married on Sept 19th @ Cypress Ridge! Cypress had a soft romantic feeling to it with the heavy fog and quietness. Aimee chose all sunflowers since these are Alex's favorite flower and I'm glad she did. The bright yellow of the sunflowers popped right off of the gray fog - any other flower or color would have been lost to the wind. Congrats to Aimee and Alex - may your marriage be richly blessed! Thanks to the talented David Pascolla for sharing some of his fabulous images!

Fall Centerpieces
Had so much creative juice at the shop this weekend working on many different projects. Here's one that was particularly fun. Mini pumpkins, orchids, succulents, artichokes, sunflowers make up this fun table piece for a dinner party. Mum is not the word here @ April Flowers. We're using fresh and eclectic mixes to keep things well...interesting! Happy Fall!

Kellie+Paul
Kellie and Paul were married a while back at Tiber Canyon Olive Ranch - one of my favorite places! Calm, cool and collected is how I would describe Kellie. Trying to hunt down more photos - stay tuned. Pictures by Jayson Mellom Photography.

Fun with Jonathan @ Bluephoto
I needed a head shot and asked Jonathan @ Bluephoto if he'd be willing. He replied with can I come down to the shop @ 2pm today and I, of course, said great! He came over to the shop and we had a mini shoot right there in the shop. He got right into work mode and away we went...with a lot of fun along the way. Thanks for such a fun afternoon stint Jonathan! Here are some of my favs....

An alternative to mums
I heart succulents. They have so much texture and personality. What a great alternative to a mum plant for fall. Rich greens, browns and eggplant tones offer up the warm colors we all love at this time of year. Succulents are also so resilient! A side story for you...My father-in-law has them growing like weeds in his yard. Last year I had him clip some and bring them up for me to use in a wedding. Not only did they look great after a days worth of travel but I planted the stubby stems that were left and a year later I have my own succulent garden. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
