Lane and Brandon's romantic, classic wedding at The Stockroom in late Winter was our first after returning from Intrigued Experience where we learned the tap bouquet method from Katie Davis of Ponderosa and Thyme. Lush and soft blooms such as garden roses, ranunculus, tulips, anemones and stock, paired with jasmine vine, eucalyptus, bay laurel, camellia foliage, and variegated bush ivy for dreamy florals!

What a joy to team up with Lily & Oak and Six Foot Photography on a brand inspired styled shoot at the Mim's House in December. Focusing the intimate moments a couple has before and during their wedding day, this shoot was filled foraged greens and privet berries, dusty miller, eucalyptus, agonis, thistle and ruscus, as well as white blooms such as lilies, peonies, veronica, snapdragons, ranunculus, narcissus, parrot tulips, wendy spray roses, white anemone and more!

What a treat to be asked to collaborate with Nicole at Southern Weddings on an editorial featuring their new collection with High Cotton Ties. Shot at The Bradford by Anna Routh Photography, this was such a fun way to be creative with our boutonniere designs!

Jamie + Stephen were married on a beautiful Spring afternoon in March at the gorgeous Bay 7 in Durham. With a classic black and white color palette, Jamie wanted lots of greenery with lush blooms to compliment. We used polo roses, alabaster garden roses, tibet roses and playa blanca roses, complimented with white anemone, spray roses, astilbe, ranunculus, double tulips, lisianthus and veronica, as well as dusty miller, silver dollar, seeded and gunii eucalyptus. The result was one of our favorite (and largest!) bouquets to date. My favorite part was adding a piece of daphene from my own garden to the bouquet and boutonniere to help trigger scent memories for years to come of this special day!
