Shop News :: My little helper


I have the cutest little helper around here. He so gently and quietly climbs onto my work desk and just sits here and watches me type, write notes or chit-chat on the phone. It's tough being a dog around here. ;)

Phipps Mansion

In October 2007 we did a lovely fall wedding at Phipps Mansion - right in time before the weather changed. Allison's wedding was the epitome of a fall wedding, the leaves were floating down from the trees as we decorated the ceremony site. Allison selected a wonderful assortment of fall flowers, including circus roses, black magic roses, hypericum berries, nandina leaves, red dogwood, rose hips, orange unique roses, mango callas, red dahlias, orange dahlias, burgundy dahlias, hocus pocus roses and red oak leaves.

Happy 2008!

Well, another year has come and gone & what a year it was.
We worked with so many fun, creative and sweet brides last year! Michelle and I were recalling everyone and saying how much we enjoyed working with each bride. We also met many new vendors and had the pleasure of working closely with a few new wedding planners. We experienced some new venues and visited more corners of the great state of Colorado. We had a blast attending so many networking events & trying the tasty tidbits of Denver/Boulder caterers.
Plus, new additions to Bella Fiori, Lauren joined our team in December and jumped right into the deep end with weddings and holiday events.
Of course, Johann joined the shop. Seen here becoming one with tulle:

If you are planning a wedding for 2008 now is the time to contact Bella Fiori! Yes, we are booking up quickly for May, June & July. August, September and October have started to get inquiries and bookings.
If you are in need of a Saturday consultation slot we are taking apts. for January 5 or 19. Please plan on one hour for your initial consultation.

Happy New Year! :)

Grand Hyatt - Pinnacle Club

We had a lovely wedding on New Year's Eve which took place at Grand Hyatt's Pinnacle Ballroom.
"The Pinnacle Club
Colorado's premier banquet space is now open to host your affair through the Grand Hyatt Denver. This lofty 38th floor perch, with its floor–to-ceiling windows, provides optimal views of downtown Denver's skyline, the Rocky Mountains, and Pikes Peak more than 100 miles away!"
Imagine the views from this great ballroom during the evening hours of New Years! I heard the views of the fireworks were amazing!
The theme was winter white. We used very few fresh flowers for the reception. Only a few white orchids were used during the cocktail hour where we decorated martini glasses with a light, California crystals and the orchid.

Then the guests entered the grand ballroom which was decorated with white table linens and chair covers with a subtle silver overlay. We decorated the tables with great mosiac white and silver vases filled with winter white branches and fun beads around the base of the branches.

Not pictured are the personal flowers. Emily carried a handtied bouquet of black magic roses with a petite collar of evergreens. The bridesmaids carried handtied bouquets of polo roses with collars of seeded eucalyptus and evergreens. The mothers carried petite versions of the bridesmaids' bouquets.
Michelle Gillette of Dramatic Events was the wedding planner for this fabulous New Year's Eve wedding.
