Michigan Fall Wedding

Nancy & Karl, October 2011

I love fall weddings. Especially, here in Michigan our fall is spectacular. All the changing colors of trees are a true inspiration. For Nancy and Karl we really wanted to bring those colors into their hall. Nancy brought me few months ago samples of colors that she liked. Chocolate brown, burgundy, orange were our primary color palette for flowers. Reception was in the American Polish Cultural Center and because of the dark wood everywhere we really wanted to brighten up entire hall by using a lot of champagne in linens and chair covers. We had some accent up lighting in amber shade to warm up the walls and bring some of the details of the wood out. We also had set up a really elaborate cocktail hour section as well as a delicious sweets table by Flower to Flour bakery that was made out of 5 tables! A nice touch of fall, were small wine bottles that Nancy and Karl gave away as their favors. It was a beautiful wedding that looked extremely fun. Nancy and Karl were super sweet and I loved working with them. Happy married life to both of you!

Krystin and Jerad

October 10th, 2009

Fall is here! I love fall, but I actually love only two weeks of fall that happen to be still semi-warm and full of colors. Last week was filled with rain and to be honest it didn't look good at all. Magically, everything cleared up for Krystin and Jerad's wedding day on Saturday morning.

The sun came out and the true colors of fall really appeared out of nowhere. The plan was to collect leaves for our tables instead of rose petals. Actually, it was my romantic homework for Krystin and Jerad but since it has been raining and there wasn't many leaves falling we ended up waiting to the last moment. It doesn't get any more last moment than the morning of the wedding. Luckily, there were plenty of beautiful tress with colorful leaves so I collected all bunch of them for extra detail on the tables. As you can see we had chocolate crushed table linens, ivory chair covers with satin copper sashes. On the tables in our arrangements we had apples, roses, chrysanthemums, dahlias and few more flowers that really brought the fall colors out. We had leaves on the curly willows and around the centerpieces. Krystin did a wonderful job preparing her items that I requested from her. Her crafty skills came in really handy. She made beautiful frames with table tree labels that were used instead of regular numbers. She made also place seating cards and her wedding invitations. It was a beautiful day and a beautiful wedding. Congratulations to both of you!

Below are few pictures of the bridal bouquet and bridal party flowers. I can't wait to see the pictures from Kelly Dobson that shot entire wedding.

Bridal bouquet had calla lilies, safari sunset, dahlias, red berries, roses and pincushion flowers.
