Ginny and Andrew had an absolutely beautiful wedding at the Hermitage Museum in Norfolk, Virginia, which is easily one of the most beautiful wedding venues in Hampton Roads! Ginny and Andrew envisioned classic, romantic floral designs, with lush bouquets and centerpieces filled with lots of beautiful blush, champagne and ivory blooms! For the flowers, we used eucalyptus with ranunculus, garden roses, spray roses and cafe au lait dahlias in the bouquets and centerpieces- I love how the bouquets and blush hand-dyed silk ribbon streamers paired effortlessly with the beautiful mauve-inspired bridesmaid dresses- definitely a favorite of 2017! The Hermitage Museum had the most beautiful string lighting set up outside, and Ginny, Andrew and all their guests danced away under the stars- it was magical! Their wedding day was photographed by Compo Photography who did such a wonderful job! Check out the end of this post for a list of all the vendors who brought Ginny and Andrew’s wedding day to life- and enjoy! ๐Ÿ™‚

Taylor and Tyler had an absolutely beautiful wedding at the Lodge at Mount Ida in Charlottesville, Virginia, one of new my favorite wedding venues!! The weather in early September on their wedding day was absolutely perfect, with sunshine, a light breeze and gorgeous mountain views! Taylor envisioned neutral, organic floral designs, with greenery garlands draped down the long tables at Mount Ida, and we used eucalyptus with anemones, garden roses, ranunculus and dahlias in the bouquets and centerpieces to make her vision come to life. I love how the bouquets looked up against the beautiful blush bridesmaid dresses, and the gorgeous gold accents (even gold flatware!!) paired SO well with a champagne linen for the round tables!  The reception space at Mount Ida was absolutely perfect, filled with ethereal, neutral details, and even some fun pops of acylic, for the table numbers and escort cards! Their wedding day was photographed by Birds of a Feather Photography, who did such a wonderful job, and I also loved working alongside Hitched by Heather, who planned their entire wedding day!!

Meghan and Zach had an absolutely beautiful wedding at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens, one of my favorite wedding venues in Hampton Roads! They were married on a rainy July day, but luckily with a great venue like the Botanical Gardens, their wedding ceremony was easily transferred indoors, and it was SO lovely! From the first time I talked with Meghan, I just knew we would be friends! She is a teacher, a puppy mom, and a lover of succulents, all some of my own favorite things too ๐Ÿ™‚ She envisioned neutral flowers, in shades of white with varying types of greenery and succulents. We used flowers like garden roses, veronica, stock, and more to give the bouquets and arrangements a textured, whimsical look. I also tied off their bouquets in textured grey silk ribbon streamers, and Meghan’s bouquet was seriously one of my most favorite I’ve ever designed, and it smelled heavenly!! Their wedding day was photographed by Valerie Demo Photography,  who did such a great job, and I also loved working alongside by good friend, Sterling, of Sterling Dawn Events, who planned their wedding day!! Check out the end of this post for the vendors who each played a part in Meghan and Zach’s wedding day- and enjoy! ๐Ÿ™‚

Amanda and D’Angelo were married on a sunshine-filled July day,  at Morais Vineyard near Fredericksburg, Virginia! The very first time I talked with Amanda, I just KNEW we would have such a blast working together!! She is a very talented wedding photographer, and she had so many creative and unique ideas to make her and D’Angelo’s wedding so special!! Amanda and D’Angelo’s wedding was filled with white and blush florals, including the most dreamy peonies that filled Amanda’s bouquet, the ceremony flowers and the centerpieces, and they smelled AMAZING. A huge fluffy peony bouquet was Amanda’s “must-have”, and I was so excited for her to see her beautiful bouquet once she arrived to the venue that day!  Their whole day was filled with FUN details, like having a Kona Ice Truck for guests after the ceremony (such a good idea), huge balloons that spelled out “Boyce”, welcomed guests to Morais Vineyards, and Amanda’s stunning outfit change into a gorgeous rose gold dress during the reception! And of course, being a dog mom myself, I loved that Amanda and D’Angelo included their 3 dogs in the festivities as well. All the amazing details of their day were captured perfectly by the sweet and talented Hope Taylor Photography and I loved being able to work alongside her and an awesome team of friends who all work together frequently, which always makes wedding days run so smoothly! Check out the end of this post for the vendors who each played a part in Amanda and D’Angelo’s wedding day- and enjoy! ๐Ÿ™‚

Morgan and Ryan were married on a gorgeous June day, outdoors at Big Spring Farm in Lexington, Virginia! From the very first consultation I had with Morgan, I immediately knew I had found a new friend- we have so much in common! ๐Ÿ™‚ I absolutely loved being able to work with her (and her sweet mom) throughout the planning process, and by the time the big day had arrived, I felt a little sad knowing that we didn’t have anymore flower meetings scheduled so we could catch up!! Morgan and Ryan’s wedding was filled with romantic pastel colors and soft textures, and I loved being able to use some of my favorite flowers for their wedding, like peonies, ranunculus, lavender, eucalyptus, and garden roses (and all the flowers smelled AMAZING!!!) Morgan’s one big request was having white anemones in her bridal bouquet, so when I got them delivered that week and they came in so perfectly that I just HAD to share a picture with her before the big day! She was so excited, and I just knew her bouquet would be a new favorite of mine!! And the bridesmaid bouquets full of eucalyptus and white fluffy peonies paired perfectly with their mismatched, but still coordinating dresses in shades of blush and lavender- so obsessed!!! All the sweet details of their day were captured perfectly by Kimberly Florence Photography, and I loved seeing all the thoughtful touches that Ryan and Morgan had incorporated into their wedding day! Big Spring Farm was the perfect setting for their whimsical and fun wedding, and I am SO excited to be able to share some of the details here!

Alyssa and Tyler were married on a perfect June day at the Chrysler Museum of Art in Norfolk, Virginia! These two are the absolute sweetest, and I loved being able to work alongside them throughout the wedding planning process!! Alyssa and I actually met in high school chorus class, and I was SO honored when she reached out to me about her wedding! Tyler and Alyssa had a preppy, elegant wedding vision, with pops of navy, coral and gold as the focal colors, and I loved being able to utilize coral charm peonies- Alyssa’s favorite blooms, for their wedding!! I was so thrilled to be their wedding florist, and I got to play with lots of my favorite flowers: garden roses, peonies, ranunculus, eucalyptus greenery and more! Alyssa seriously looked like a princess in her gorgeous fluffy dress, and her Maya Couture gown was definitely a new favorite of mine!! Jessica Ryan Photography captured their day beautifully, and the Chrysler Museum of Art in Norfolk was the perfect backdrop for all their elegant and fun wedding day details! I just loved looking through all their gorgeous photos, and reminiscing about such a wonderful wedding day!! ๐Ÿ™‚ Enjoy these magical photos, and give some love to the vendor team who brought their wedding to life, below!
