The Blonde Photographer

On July 11th Molly and I spent a windy afternoon at CBF (Chesapeake Bay Foundation) putting together a lovely event for Missy & Mark. While setting up I caught a glimpse of a "blonde photographer". However, I did not give it much thought. That is until today when I saw these images on Jamie's (The Blond Photographer) site. Jamie is an ultra cool eye. I can't wait to have her shoot our work again!



Missy & Mark's wedding is just a teaser. Log onto http://www.theblondephotographer.com/ to view more of Jamie's work.

Thank you to Missy & mark for inviting us to design your decor and be part of your day.

Thank you to The Blond Photographer for sharing these super cool images!

Monogrammed

There are lots of ways to add your monogram to your special day. This past weekend Mr & Mrs. McCormick requested an over sized "m" be created out of button mums to compliment their decor. The monogram was accented with touches of orchids and Gerber Daisy set atop the mantle. As a finishing touch the mantle was flanked by cylinder vases with submerged flowers.

The casual lounge furniture set the tone for this casual waterfront reception.

Venue: Chesapeake Bay Beach Club

Treating Your Napkin

Napkin treatments are on the rise. By adding a simple rose or even a single orchid bud this trend will give your table a wonderful added touch.

Adding this treatment to your wedding can be very affordable if you are working with a Day-of-Coordinator/Wedding Planner. Select a flower being used in your centerpieces for the most powerful impact and ask your designer (us of course) to process them and provide the single blooms to your Coordinator. Your coordinator will be more than happy to add these flowers to the napkins for a finished look.

If you are looking for a great Wedding Planner / Day-of-Coordinator I recommend Historic Events and Exquisite Gems

Melody in Mexico

This month Melody Browning of Historic Events hired Wendy Hickok to fly to Mexico for a "Glam the Dress" session. Although these images do not have flowers in them I just had to share. Wendy is a great wedding photographer with a wonderful eye.

These images inspire me to do a "Glam the Dress" session.

The 4th at the Beach Club

As most of you know I am a huge photography fan. When it comes to talented artists Don Bryant is among the best in the country. For years his work has been giving me chills. Enjoy this glimpse into Danielle & Matt’s July 4th Beach Club wedding as seen through Don’s lens. I hope to have more of Don’s images from this wedding to share in the future.
