THE PERFECT OCCASION: July 2012

Patty and Paul's Wedding ~ 07.08.2012

Back when I was in elementary school, Patty was the often the home and school leader and we would frequently work on school fundraisers and events together....Fast forward 14 years and I had the pleasure of designing the flowers for Patty's wedding. The wedding was celebrating the blending of Patty and Paul's two families and the decor had a romantic, garden feel. Although the weather was very hot it was the perfect day for these high school sweethearts to finally get their happily ever after!

Stacy and Josh's Renewal of Vows ~ 07.04.2012

Stacy and Josh were married in a spur of the moment ceremony, a year ago, before Josh got deployed overseas. Wanting a proper celebration, they decided to have a wedding and renew their vows on their first anniversary. They picked the beautiful Beazell Forest Education Center in Plymouth, Oregon as the location for their special day. I had triple duty that day. Not only am I the bride's cousin, but I also coordinated the wedding, designed the flowers and decor, and performed the ceremony. The colors were vibrant, the weather was perfect, and the food was not only plentiful but also delicious. It was the perfect day to celebrate the couple's anniversary and recommitment to one another!

Katie and Jarrod's Wedding ~ 06.30.2012

I had the pleasure of designing flowers and table decor for a beautiful, countryside themed, vineyard wedding held at Melrose Vineyards. The bride, her mother, and her future mother-in-law brought me all kinds of rustic goodness to add into the bouquets and arrangement which gave them that personal touch. Although it poured down rain most of the day, no amount of Oregon weather could put a damper on this hometown family wedding celebration!!
