news from the studio!
Hard to believe it is already October! Where did the summer go? Oh yea, we were working on weddings. ;)
I'm enjoying watching the leaves turn from green to golds and reds, the air is a bit more crisp in the morning. I do enjoy the fall season.
At the shop we went from hot pinks, oranges, blue & white to Fall Weddings in a flash. Now the nandina leaves are in, the mango callas, orange/yellow and burgundy dahlias, tons of berries, liquid amber leaves, confetti & black beauty roses. I like the natural looks of the arrangements this time of year.
I think I'll be flying home to California the end of October - need to see the vineyards turning their beautiful red, orange and yellow shades. Love it!
ahhhh.. fall, what a beautiful time of year!

Beautiful Boettcher Mansion
I love Boettcher Mansion, just love it. Such a breathtaking location for a wedding, quaint and quiet. Recently worked on a wedding there with Debbie from Save The Date Events. Susan Pacek Photography has been kind enough to send over some photos she took. Thanks, Susan!!




Entertaining Colorado Style
On Sept. 20, 2007 I participated in Entertaining Colorado Style's Parade of Tables. I had the fun of designing a fantasy table and came up with the idea of doing everything in shades of green. It is with great pleasure that I share the two out of five awards I received! From the judges I received "Design Excellence" and from the luncheon guests I received "Table I Would Most Like in My Home". Here are some photos of "Going Green"




The other good news from this fun event is the new floral designer that I met, Henry from Newberry Brothers. Henry and I had a great time chatting throughout the event. I'm very happy to announce that he also won two awards! Here's a photo of Henry with his table:

We love limes!
We recently designed flowers for a wedding at The Pines at Genesee where the theme was pink and green & lots of limes. I love working with limes - such a great color contrast to most flowers. The planner for this event was Sapphire Celebrations.
The arch for the ceremony was decorated with dangling magenta dendrobrium orchids.
Galvanized pails were filled with pink stargazers, bells of Ireland, pink roses, pink gerber daisies and cut limes. These lined the aisle of the ceremony and were later moved inside to be centerpieces.
The cake was provided Das Meyer. We decorated it with pink gerbers, green hypericum berries, pink roses, stargazers and lots of petals. Sapphire Celebrations provided the adorable "I do" letters. Next to the cake sits the toss bouquet.
Each napkin was adorned with a cluster of green hypericum berries.
Another centerpiece was an arrangement of pink stargazers, pink gerber daisies, green hypericum, pink roses arranged in a vase with cut limes lining the inside.
The third centerpiece was a fun collection of three cylinder vases clustered together with cut limes in the base and floating candles. Pink rose petals were scattered around the vases.

The arch for the ceremony was decorated with dangling magenta dendrobrium orchids.
A baby shower
We had the pleasure of designing flowers for a baby shower at Heritage Eagle Bend this past Saturday. We love working with Tyra, she is in charge of the events at Heritage Eagle Bend. Julie Gambrell from Classic Creations had planned out this adorable shower for a baby boy. Here are some photos:
This is the entrance to the baby shower room:
Lush centerpieces on each guest table were designed with baby blue delphinium, baby blue hydrangea, skyline yellow roses, yellow spray roses, white iris, green tulips, bells of Ireland and white stock. The flowers were arranged in white ceramic square containers with yellow and blue ribbon streamers flowing onto the table.
Each guest received this adorable favor and we placed a sprig of blue delphinium next to them for added color.
The cake was designed by Elegant Bakery from Lakewood, Colorado. Janusz is such a talented artist. We scattered blue delphinium blossoms, yellow spray rose blossoms, salal leaves and yellow petals around the cake.
