Last Minute Wedding at 1508

This spring friend and colleague Anne Book contacted me on Wednesday asking if I could host a celebration following her vows on Saturday (in three days). Happily I did not have an event and was thrilled to be a part of her special day. On Friday, the day before her ceremony plans became complicated and we decided to shift and have the ceremony as well as the planned celebration at my home/studio. We cooked, made a wedding cake and flowered. Lucky for everyone Kate Headley documented.

Come join us Tuesday July 7th!

On the List–– Martha Stewart!!

005We are psyched to be on the list of Martha Stewart Weddings, Top Floral Designers!  It will be available in a few days on i pad and in print, here is a sneak peak––  if you are looking for me I am number 63. The photo here and featured in the magazine was taken by Kate Headley.  The wedding was styled by Ritzy Bee Events and the day of paper products were done by Simplesong Design.  What tickles me is that now I have collaborated with Kate, Maria, Kelly and Suann for years on a wide variety of projects. I rely on them for things work related but they are also my friends... but this image is from the very first wedding that we worked on together and I believe the very first time that we all met in person.

Welcome 2015!

Even off duty the phone shot taken by the talented Kate Headley is outstanding! IMG_0419
