Warm and vibrant wedding colors to warm up your heart.

Kristen & Eric, February 2012

Just last week we worked on Kristen and Eric's wedding. Kristen and Eric are a wonderful, charming couple so couldn't have anything less than wonderful and charming for their event! Both of them picked American Polish Cultural Center as their venue and ceremony location. They loved the historic look and how much personality entire room had. With the colors that we picked it was really simple to bring that room to life. We loved plum and burgundy shades but we didn't want the room to get too dark since there is lots of dark wood already on the walls. For that reason we mixed quite a bit of ivory in and added lighting that highlighted detail craft that was already on the walls. Entire room, after we were done working in it felt really warm and vibrant. Perfect for a chilly February in Michigan! We had lots of fun working for Kristen and Eric and we wish them very happy life together.

Below are few details of the bridal party flowers. Bride's bouquet as well as groom's boutonniere.

Summer Wedding in Rochester Hills

Kim & Kenneth, July 2011

Summer in Michigan is really beautiful and it was wonderful of our bride and groom to take a chance and do their ceremony outside at the River Crest. The colors we worked with were tiffany blue, champagne and brown. For variety we added a hint of lime green. Outdoor we designed a simple decor for the arch. Entire rope of flowers that you see below is all made out of many fresh flowers. In the wind out white fabric really looked amazingly romantic. The aisle we decorated with more fabric and floral pieces that highlighted arranged rows of chairs. For the inside of the hall we really wanted to bring in more tiffany blue. Our linens gave us a lot of color. We had champagne chair covers with tiffany blue sashes. Our centerpieces were made out of few separate containers with flowers, LEDs and floating candles. They were simple yet really dressed up tables and looked charming. Favors that Kim made were in brown boxes that added that extra touch of brown. Some of the tables were round and some were oval, which made a really nice and different combination to work with. One of the photos below is also showing Holiday Market's wedding cake, which looked stunning as always. Kim's bridal bouquet was really unique and I can't wait to show you what it looked like, but it will be featured on another post because that's what it deserves! Kim and Kenneth, you both looked gorgeous, good luck to you and congratulations from everyone in our team.

Romantic Rainy Fall Wedding in Downtown Detroit

Amy and Dan, October 2nd, 2010

We had so much fun working with Amy, Dan and their families. I must say this doesn't happen often to have everyone so equally involved and hard working to make a wedding day come true. For Amy and Dan it definitely paid off. All the details were so well taught through and everything was planned ahead for minimum stress and maximum fun. Entire day of the wedding, it was raining and it was a pretty gray dayhere in Detroit however nothing stood in a way of having a next to perfect wedding. Ceremony took place in an extremely beautiful church right downtown at the Fort St. Presbytarian Church. We were for the first time in there and I must say the church took my breath away. Since Amy and Dan had a lot of guests coming from out of state, they hired Royal Transportation for quick and easy way of transporting everyone around Detroit. Following ceremony, reception was at the Colony Club where everyone there was extremely helpful and we had a great time working with. Amy and Dan had ivory linens, gold chiavari chairs, gold charges. Flowers we kept ivory, white with additions of gold-peach spray roses that brought out the gold in the interior of the ballroom. Amy Carroll was the photographer that captured all the details. I don't think there is a lot of photographers out there that capture everything with that amount of love, as Amy does. Holiday Market and Kim did an amazing job preparing a beautiful wedding cake. Trifoot Production captured wonderful moments from entire day on video camera. All the vendors were truly a pleasure to work with and made together pulled off an amazing wedding. Of course Amy and Dan topped it off by looking stunning. Congratulations to both of you!

Below are beautiful photos taken by Amy Carroll Photography.

It was an amazing day and she captured it just perfectly!

Izabela & Tony

May 22, 2010

Last weekend, it was a big day for Izabela and Tony. I loved working with both of them and their families on planning their wedding. We changed our ideas on color scheme few times. Izabela always knew she loved the combination of green, champagne and ivory. In the beginning we had in mind way more black and in the end, together we concluded that the black will be substituted by a wonderful shade of plum. The details such as table numbers and seating cards were designed by Paperie Design. Anna did a wonderful job and them and there were really a lot more than just typical table numbers. In our flower combination we had; hydrangeas, green roses, ivory roses, bells of ireland, snapdragons, stock, spray roses and since we wanted to add a flower specific for spring, lots of plum tulips. Izabela and Tony also decided to go with amber colored flood lights on all the walls, which made entire room cozy and romantic. Below I am attaching few of my shots of the complete look of the hall. Later on in the week I will add few shots from Agnes Photography that documented entire wedding.

Princess-Themed Wedding Table Sample

This is another one of sample tables that we had featured during our Engagement Ball. Completely different look from the Fall-Themed table sample. True princess inspired wedding. We wanted to keep it simple and almost expected but give it details that would make it more charming. We used ivory pinned linens, satin ivory pillowcase chair covers with satin light pink sashes. Flowers were mostly roses, hydrangeas and orchids with additions of ivory feathers and crystals. We also had floating candles and pink lights that added shimmer. Our satin pink napkins were folded inside of glasses to resemble roses in the flower arrangement. Beautiful detail designs such as guest gifts, menus and table number were all designed by Custom Paper Works.

Above photo composition was created with use of photos taken by Agnes Photography and Maciek Photography. Beautiful work guys!

Marisa & Erick

December 5, 2009

We started planning with Marisa already during early summer. Marisa didn't want a typical wedding and liked the idea of an intimate, cozy, winter evening event. Since Marisa and Erick's wedding was in December she originally wanted to incorporate more holiday inspirations. We spoke about adding red berries and pine into the arrangements. Later, Marisa realized that this would not create the look that she had in mind. She wanted bold arrangements that would make a statement. We had really nice contrast going between the dark burgundy tones of the table linens and chair covers and the brightness of the arrangements. We didn't use any flowers that aren't available normally during winter season that is why we ended up not using orchids or delphiniums. We really wanted to stick to winter theme without putting holiday flair on it. We had four different type of roses ranging in tones from white to almost light pink and cream.

We used frosted candles on the tables inside of the vases we submerged flowers and created a look resembling ice. Once we were done, room was filled with sweet aroma of stock. On the pictures below you can see the overall idea. Some photos were taken during the day, before the Cherry Creek crew set up the tables, some were already taken in late afternoon, that is why they came out much darker. Personally, I can't wait to see the photographers pictures. I am sure they come out beautiful because it was a beautiful day, beautiful couple and beautiful venue. Congratulations to both of you. I was really happy about working with you and contributing to your day.

Below are few amazing shots taken by Blackberry Kisses Photography.

Really wonderful photography that captured the essence of that December day.

Great job!

Barbara and Arnold

October 24, 2009

I was supposed to have this weekend actually open. I was kind of excited about having a weekend to myself but through my surprise, on Tuesday I met with Barbara and Arnold which were scheduled to have their wedding on this Saturday. I ended up pretty much having 4 days to figure everything out in time for their wedding. As you can see it is possible, yet it is too late to put in orders for flowers so you just have to deal with whatever is in the warehouse at the time. Barbara wanted everything white/ivory with some additions of orange and silver. We had silver pillowcase chair covers. Wedding took place in our Polish local church, Our Lady of Czestochowa. Reception was at the Russian restaurant, The Fiddler. I have few pictures below, I did however skip out on taking pictures of the bridal party flowers because I run out of time. I hope I will be able to post them when I will get them from Barbara and Arnold's photographer. I think everything turned out wonderful considering that we had very, very tight deadline. Congratulations to you!

Rachel and Tommy

August 22nd, 2009

Rachel and Tommy had their wedding in late August. I can't believe it is already over a month! I had myself took really bad pictures with my phone of few arrangements that I have done for Rachel and Tommy. Yesterday Rachel actually posted her pictures from Robert Bruce Photography of their wedding day (I couldn't wait to see them). Very, very romantic photos. Beautiful bride and just over all a perfect day. On these photographs you can see all my floral work in it's glory. We used about 7 different kinds of roses ranging from white all the way to blush and peach. We had variety of different flowers in there as well. In Rachel's bouquet we had 3 different kinds of roses. Entire bouquet was inspired by Carrie's bridal bouquet from Sex in the City. You can't see it too well on these photos but Rachel had on all tables lace linens, chairs had champagne satin sashes that were decorated each by addition of a peach rose. I loved entire color combination that Rachel has picked, very glamorous.

Congratulations Rachel and Tommy!

Sherrie and Clark

September 26, 2009

For the past few months I had a pleasure of working with Sherrie in creating her vision of what her wedding day would look like. Her inspiration were peacock feathers and we wanted to utilize them in our arrangements. She knew she didn't want darker shades or purples, she fell in love with idea of using antique lavender. Finally, this Saturday Sherrie and Clark tied the knot and her vision came to life. I am attaching few pictures from the hall and the details of the arrangements that I created for Sherrie and Clark as well as few shots from Nicoloff photography from the actual wedding day. Beautiful, romantic photos, there will be more coming soon on Nicoloff blog. Sherrie and Clark are off to their honeymoon, congratulations and enjoy the sun!
