Sara + Chris {engaged}

She has a beautiful vision for her wedding day and I’m honored to be able to help her realize that vision for her May wedding. I’ve...

We wanted to give the attendees a lot to look at and a place to relax and be inspired when they were overwhelmed with the sheer volume of wedding information available. With a color scheme of black, white, and pewter, our tangerine and turquoise florals really stood out. And they took advantage of our inspiration books at our front...

It makes it so much more personal and unique – and you know we LOVE unique around here! I even like helping with florals or invites or whatever because I enjoy helping to make their vision come to life. I think that’s why I enjoy...
