Kayla and Andrew were married on a beautiful October day last fall in Chesapeake, Virginia, and had the most lovely, whimsical wedding! Their color palette of mauve, white and blush was gorgeous, and one of my favorites of the year- it’s so fun to work with more unique color palettes. Kayla wanted lots of textural blooms, like dahlias, ranunculus and scabiosa paired with romantic garden roses and eucalyptus greenery for the florals, and I adore the way they all looked at her wedding! 🙂 Another fun part for me was making those adorable succulent boutonnieres- LOVE!! I loved working with these two sweethearts; they had such a lovely and heartfelt day. Enjoy these beautiful photos from Erin Daniel Photography, and be sure to show some love to the entire vendor team listed below!

Karen and Tim’s Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery fall wedding in Charlottesville, Virginia was an absolute dream!! I loved working with these two lovebirds to create their romantic red and dusty rose colored floral designs, and they had perfect early fall weather in the mountains for their intimate, elegant wedding. I had never been to the Albemarle Estate in Charlottesville, and it was quite a treat!! I loved working with a great team of vendors, including Tara Liebeck Photography, who captured all the beautiful moments throughout the day, and have listed the rest of the team below!! Enjoy this beautiful wedding! 🙂

This dreamy Charlottesville, Virginia wedding was one of my FAVORITES this year!!! When Jessica and I first talked about her organic, gold-infused, candlelit, winter wedding at Early Mountain Vineyards near Charlottesville, I knew it was going to be absolutely breathtaking! Jessica was the sweetest bride to work with, and being an interior designer herself, has impeccable taste and an amazing vision for her wedding- I literally was counting the days until her gorgeous day!! She dreamt of a romantic soiree, with lots of lush greenery and pops of white flowers!! SWOON! To compliment that, I used anemones, white garden roses, veronica, ranunculus and a variety of greenery, including eucalyptus! This was such a wonderful way to end my 2016 wedding season, and I truly enjoyed every minute of their wedding, including working with an amazing vendor team! Enjoy these photos, taken by Audrey Rose Photography and scroll to the bottom to see the rest of the dream team that brought Jessica and John’s wedding to life!

This beautiful Charlottesville wedding was one for the books, y’all!! When I first met Corinne, several months prior to her wedding, I fell in love with her all-white, rustic yet elegant wedding day vision. We used flowers such as David Austin garden roses, ranunculus, dusty miller, eucalyptus and snowberries, and the flowers were the perfect addition to the classic look of the Trump Winery Barn and Pavilion. Corinne was such a joy to work with throughout the planning process, and the love that she shares with Tim was so evident throughout their wedding day- she was absolutely radiant! 🙂 I truly enjoyed working with her, and I am honored that she chose me to be her wedding florist; best wishes to this amazing couple!! 🙂 The vendor team who brought this wedding to life is listed below; enjoy these gorgeous photos taken by Alisandra Photography!

Paula and Edgar were married on a beautiful August day at the Half Moone Cruise and Celebration Center in Norfolk, Virginia. They were the sweetest couple to work with, and their wedding day was absolutely spectacular! They dreamed of lush garden-inspired florals, to pair with their modern-vintage wedding inspiration, and Tara Liebeck Photography captured it all perfectly!! I was thrilled to be their wedding florist, and I got to play with lots of my favorite flowers: garden roses, peonies (shipped in from Alaska), ranunculus, dahlias, greenery and more! Paula dreamed of some beautiful floral elements, including a flower arbor, (she was the first CIE bride to use my new wooden arbor) a carnation escort card display, large flower-filled centerpieces, flower crowns for the whole bridal party, and more!! 🙂 Enjoy these magical photos, and give some love to the vendor team who brought their wedding to life, below!

I have been slacking on the blog lately! I have been so busy, with our move to Richmond, weddings, just life in general… but I am so excited to share some gorgeous photos from Jess and Ryan’s April wedding today on the blog. 🙂 Jess and Ryan were friends with Jason, my husband, in college, so I was so honored when I was able to design their wedding flowers for them!! 🙂 Jess and I quickly bonded over spending a lot of time watching the guys play baseball at William & Mary, and I can’t wait until live closer to them (it WILL happen) so Jess and I can hang out and do wedding stuff together all day! Their wedding photographer, Sarah Brookhart Photography, did an amazing job on the photos- I am OBSESSED with them, and Walker’s Overlook in Walkersville, Maryland, was the picture-perfect location for their romantic outdoor wedding!! Enjoy these flower-filled photos, and enjoy your weekend! I know I will, since it is our ONE YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY! I cannot believe it has already been a year since I married the love of my life <3
