Celine and Kevin's wedding


Celine wanted a more modern and unique looking flowers for her bouquet. She wanted a combination of a crisp green and creams.
I used a combination of lime green spider mums, jade roses and cream roses, accented with white wax flowers. Her bouquet was wrapped with ivory satin ribbon and an overlay of lace that matched her wedding dress, accented with white pearl headed pins.





The groom's boutonniere was a simple and elegant white calla lilly. Celine wanted to incorporate an artistic element in his boutonniere so I used copper wire which I curled and wrapped around the stem of the calla.






The maid of honour bouquet was a mixture of cream roses and lime green spider mums, wrapped with satin chocolate brown ribbon and accented with light brown pearl headed pins.





The bridesmaids' bouquets were a smaller version of the bridal bouquet, and I wrapped them in chocolate brown ribbon with a lime green ribbon on top, accented with green pearl headed pins.








Congratulations Celine and Kevin!

Lisa and Orin's wedding

Lisa and Orin's wedding was on Saturday, June 21, 2008. I designed Lisa's bouquet, the bridesmaids' bouquets and boutonnieres for the groom and his ushers/groomsmen. I loved the colours she chose - a mix of different shades of purple with white accents.

For her bouquet, Lisa wanted a mixture of different shader of purple and lavender and she requested violet accents. I used 2 different shades of lavender roses with a couple of dark purple almost violet lisianthus. I wrapped her bouquet with a white satin ribbon with a thinner lilac ribbon twisted and accented with purple pearl head pins.







The bridesmaids carried a smaller bouquet of lilac and white roses. Cool water and Akito roses were the perfect combination.


The groom wore a single white rose boutonniere accented with delicate greenery. The groomsmen matched the bridesmaids by wearing a single lilac rose boutonniere accented with greenery.












Lisa and Orin, congratulations and all the best!
