The Journal — Summer

When it comes to setting up a wedding, the florist’s job becomes one part creative designer and two parts moving company. Not only must the florist engineer the centerpieces or ceremony arch for a bride’s big day, but they also need to engineer the logistics of the day: safely packing, loading, and unloading flowers, candles, and décor with an efficiency that could impress FedEx.

This wedding was a sweet treat! Lisa Blume Photography chose our team and I couldn’t feel more lucky! With  Karson Butler Events we dreamed up some unique ideas and elements that even caught Martha Stewart’s eye.  KT Merry captured the love and beauty at the Goodstone Inn on this summer day in VA (it is in fact for lovers).  Enjoy! The team that made this dream come true: Bride: Lisa Blume Photography, Event Planning & Design: Karson Butler Events, Photography: KT Merry, Venue: Goodstone Inn, Paper Goods: Cheree Berry Paper, Calligraphy: Laura Hooper Calligraphy & Meant To Be Calligraphy, Tent: Sugarplum Tents, Rentals: DC Rentals, Decor: Revolution Events, Vintage Rentals: Bella Villa & White Glove Rentals, Linens: LaTavola, Chair Sashes: Mosaic, Cake & Desserts: Buttercream Bakeshop,...

In July, we had the privilege of going to Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyard for a gorgeous summer wedding coordinated by Amore Events! The wonderful Ashley Eiban Photography was able to show off exactly how much love was in bloom on this summer day. Enjoy!

Beautiful moments are what we to work to create and Elisa Bricker Photography knows how to capture that beauty.  I could’ve posted 100 photos from Carly and David’s wedding at Pippin Hill Winery.  Collaborating with dream clients is so much fun, and it’s always a crazy pleasure working with Adam Donovan Groves Events.  Enjoy the details from this happy and absolutely ideal day.

I love what I do, and reminiscing about this cover shoot for Engaged! Magazine reminds me just how much.  Veronica Rogers directed the look, Carl Ray took it to the next level and Laura Gordon worked her magic to create a stunning, high fashion spread that I’m so proud to have been a part of.  ENJOY!
