Cody and Josh had the most beautiful fall wedding at the Middleburg Barn in Middleburg, Virginia! The lovely grounds are the perfect setting for an outdoor ceremony, with a scenic, natural backdrop of trees, fences, and rolling hills. The barn’s bright interior had such a charming, rustic feel! For their wedding, Cody and Josh envisioned a soft, fall-inspired color palette with navy, blush, cream, and lots of lovely greenery! To bring their vision to life, we used lots of anemones, blush garden roses and ranunculus, gray brunia berries, eucalyptus, and astilbe for texture. The bouquets were tied off with our Cappuccino and O’Hara Blush silk ribbon and smelled absolutely amazing! We also used an abundance of lovely blooms to decorate the ceremony arch, one of my absolute favorite wedding details! I loved how it framed the couple and complemented Cody’s exquisite wedding dress!

Courtney and Michael had an amazing wedding day at the Williamsburg Lodge in Williamsburg, Virginia! The venue’s lovely neutral interior had a sophisticated feel with high ceilings, paneled walls, and so many beautiful spaces perfect for photos! For their wedding, Courtney and Michael envisioned a summer-inspired color palette with bright coral, magenta, watermelon, peach and pops of white with anemones! To bring their floral vision to life, we used lots of coral charm peonies, ranunculus, dahlias, anemones, garden roses, and olive greenery as a nod to Courtney’s Greek heritage. It was SO fun designing with such rich, beautiful colors – and the combination of summer blooms smelled amazing!! To make Courtney’s blooms even more special, her bouquet included a sweet photo charm of Michael’s grandmother. Throughout the entire day, I was touched at how much love I saw between this couple and their families!

Morgan and Duke had a gorgeous June wedding day at the Historic Post Office in Hampton, Virginia! The Historic Post Office is one of my favorite places. I absolutely LOVE this unique venue, with its vaulted ceilings, sweeping curtains, dramatic balconies, and overall elegant feel! For their wedding, Morgan and Duke envisioned a classic, romantic color palette of blush and dusty rose with plenty of garden-inspired greenery. To bring their vision to life, we used lots of garden roses, ranunculus, spirea, and lisianthus astilbe. The spirea gave the bouquets such a sweet, ethereal texture, and of course the flowers smelled amazing! The Morgan’s bridal bouquet was tied off with our Cappuccino silk ribbon, which was a stunning complement to her gorgeous lace wedding dress!

The lovely, natural vineyard setting was perfect for an outdoor ceremony, with rows of vines and a scenic mountain backdrop.
