Monday cutie on a Tuesday: a lovely GWS feature with AH-mazing artists!

Hello all! Where do the days go?? Monday was lost with a great day spent with my husband so here we are on Tuesday. So excited to share this post with you today. We had the pleasure of teaming up with some amazingly talented people for a photo shoot highlighting Lisa Leonard's amazing handcrafted designs. Lisa Leonard's personal creations are perfect for bridesmaids gifts and such, Cameron Ingalls photos make me swoon as usual, Enjoy Cupcakes made our mouths water, Jessi Skipton gave some glam to our models already beautiful faces and Flying Caballos provided the gorgeous backdrop. "True Love Always Wins" was our inspiration with a kick of some sexy equestrian! Ranunculus, freesia, viburnum, tulips and dusty miller complimented everything just right...at least I think!

Monday cutie: Jen+Mike+flower doggies and a feature on Grey Likes Weddings

So excited to share this sweet wedding with you all today. Jen+Mike and their doggies Brown Pants+Fergie make the cutest little family. It was fantastic working with Jen - her laid back and trusting personality made my job so much fun! Their wedding was at Santa Margarita Ranch on a beautiful (but warm day) in May. We used lilac, viburnun, garden roses, succulents, lavender, hyacinth, ranunculus and other pretties to pull it all together!  Cameron Ingalls captured some stunning images and graciously shared some with us! Grey Likes Weddings also gave Jen+Mike a front page feature on their blog - FUN! See the full post here.

monday cutie: I am the worst graphic design client ever!

Friends meet Jeremy+Ana Cristina. Jeremy does awesome graphic design via the 805 collective and Ana Cristina is just the sweetest little thing you've ever seen. Jeremy has been helping me as I stumble along the re-branding process for my business. I have been past deadline, indecisive and just completely putting my best type-A face on. Jeremy on the other hand has been patient, kind, helpful and encouraging. I was happy to give back and get decisive about the blooms for their happy day. Enjoy! 

Love to Cameron Ingalls for sharing some of his AH-mazing photos!

Monday cutie: a french press, a photo shoot and a wholelatta happiness

It was a perfect day yesterday. Waking up, creating some seriously beautiful flowers for a photo shoot and then meeting up with two of the sweetest people I know (see their pretty faces below) for a glass of wine. Let's just say I seriously enjoyed the 80 degree January day in SLO. I thought it would be difficult for all of the other days of the week to trump Sunday but as it turns out Monday, only 3 hours young and after a superb french press brew, is making sure to keep the good stuff coming!

Soooo.....
Cameron Ingalls is a ridiculously talented photographer and also happens to be a SUPER nice guy. I have admired his work for a while, even from the early days of photographs hanging in local coffee shops. Cameron's work is romantic, meaningful and every picture seems to tell a very sweet story. He also has a project called The Wedding Standard, a place for brides, vendors and interested people in the like to look for folks in the industry who are raising the bar. From The Wedding Standard Cameron says, "I want my brides to have the best of the best, the people that don't just work for a paycheck, but who work with a love for their craft and a passion for people. Artists interviewed here are those that don't settle for mediocrity in what they do, they see their business as a service and an art form". I hope you can understand the excitement I felt when Cameron asked if he could interview ME for The Wedding Standard! It's so awesome to be recognized by such a leader in the wedding industry but to also be grouped together with so many talented folks. I feel so humbled. So....without further ado check out the interview HERE!

Morgan+Joel

Have I mentioned that I love my job? Well I do and I especially love it when a fabulous couple like this comes my way. Meet Morgan+Joel. They were married on March 20th during an intimate ceremony at Ebbtide Park. I first learned about their wedding on March 16th - yes, 4 days before the wedding from Joel's brother Jeremy. *Side note: Jeremy is a crafty guy with an awesome company see it here! Jeremy called me wondering if we would be willing to create some beauties for his brother's wedding and I, of course, obliged. After a couple of phone chats with Morgan that night and only about 5 hours later we had our "look" all figured out. Morgan has such a sweet and genuine personality and made my job just so easy. She was trusting and willing to let me run with it which is always so fun for me. Cameron Ingalls is a dear friend of Joel's and had the honor of shooting the photos for their wedding and they came out spectacular! Morgan and Joel, may your marriage be so very richly blessed. 

Tarah+Jason

Tarah and Jason were married on March 23rd during an intimate family ceremony at the Cliffs Resort. Tarah had called us a few months prior about putting together the simple and colorful blooms for their ceremony and of course we were happy to make that happen. She had a clear direction of what she wanted so it made our job very easy! We had the pleasure of receiving some images from the so very talented Cameron Ingalls! Cameron is a fantastic photographer here on the Central Coast and we were so lucky to have had the chance to, finally!, work with him.  Congratulations Tarah and Jason - many years of happiness to you both...
