Perfect Summer Wedding at Misty Farm

So talented Kathy Davies Photography captured these stunning images of Rachel and Anthony's beautiful summer wedding at Misty Farm Events in Ann Arbor.  Rachel and Anthony had a morning ceremony and a brunch reception, which not only meant a fantastic and creative menu (I love brunch food!) but also a really memorable summer setting in the morning light. Rachel and Anthony had such an eye for charming details - I loved their vintage suitcase on the card table, and they provided lovely vintage bottles and vases for the flowers.  A little bit vintage, classic, rustic, and elegant all in one.

It was such a joy working with this thoughtful and creative couple on their flower design - they wanted lovely colors - orange, peach, coral, pink, blue - and seasonal textures, and they really let me run with a wide variety of blooms and the best of the season.

Rachel's bridal bouquet featured orange free spirit roses, orange and yellow poppies, yellow parrot tulips, peach juliet garden roses, blue scabiosa, mint geranium foliage, fresh mint, lady's mantle, and dusty miller.

The centerpieces included coral charm peonies, finesse roses, peach juliet garden roses, white ranunculus, blue nigella, dusty miller, mint geranium foliage and peach parrot tulips.

Spring wedding at Cottonwood Barn

This set up at Cottonwood Barn was so gorgeous and so much fun!  Such a beautiful venue, and bride Christine had incredible vision adding gorgeous details everywhere.  Such a joy to be a part of it, and so looking forward to the pro photos by Lamarand Style Photography which will be so much better than my snaps here! The tables featured moss table runners for a natural touch, and several different centerpiece designs with a rustic and elegant mix of vases - mercury glass, whitewashed wood, and milk glass.  The flowers included rich green textures - succulents, queen anne's lace, tree ivy, umbrella fern, and ruscus foliages, as well as white and pale peach blooms - hydrangea, ranunculus, carnations, green trick dianthus, larkspur and peach juliet garden roses, as well as curly willow branches.

Sometimes it's the little things...

I wanted to share a few little pieces from this past weekend's weddings... sometimes it's the small details that can be exciting and memorable.  I'm still thinking about these days later...  

For this outdoor wedding at the groom's parents' farm in Saline, the boutonniere had a touch of rustic and wildflower with yellow craspedia and delicate blue nigella.  I just love the soft, spindly parts of the nigella.

And for this gorgeous bride with a wedding at Matthaei Botanical Gardens in Ann Arbor, this petite haircomb with a stunning white ranunculus and yellow craspedia was so glamorous next to her birdcage veil.
