Wildflower engagement session

Have you thought about incorporating flowers in to your engagement shoot?

When our bride Tanja asked us to create a wildflower-inspired oversize bouquet for her E-session with Blush Wedding Photography we knew it was going to make for some magic pictures.

And here they are!

We look forward to sharing pictures from this couple's gorgeous wedding soon, which was inspired by a Summer night in the Mediterranean. 

New Year Inspiration

Happy 2014 and welcome to a wonderful New Year!

To the newly-engaged brides-to-be, congratulations! What an exciting way to start the year!

We are celebrating 2014 with the news our New Year's bridal inspiration shoot with Smitten Events and Jamie Lauren Photography is featured on Wedding Chicks. This jewel-toned treat is filled with style, playfulness, and a healthy dose of glitter; the perfect ingredients for any party, don't you think?

We designed a floral garland for the tablescape, a large floral wreath for the ceremony, along with a bridal and bridesmaid bouquet, hair crown, boutonniere, and other accents such as those seen on the bar cart.

Here's a glimpse of some of the beauty. You can see the full post on Wedding Chicks along with the other talented vendors involved here. For the full photo gallery and loads more inspiration, click here.

Romantic garden wedding

A bride with a love of garden roses, ranunculus and French anemones. Hello, have we met?

When Anne-Marie came to us for her wedding florals we were only too happy to share in her love of these beautiful blooms. Despite ranunculus being out of season, we were able to secure a small supply to use throughout her bouquets and centerpieces which were a surprise for the bride on her special day. We love surprises!

These dreamy images by Blush and Whimsy perfectly captured the elegant garden wedding vision Anne-Marie and Mike set out to achieve at Cecil Green Park House.

Add in her Vera Wang gown and metallic Kate Spade pumps, along with a host of personalized DIY projects crafted to perfection, this was one stylish wedding for a truly lovely couple.

The day was pulled seamlessly together with the help of Spread Love Events who brought their attention to detail to the celebration as Annie and Mike's month-of coordinators.

You can see more images on Brides.com where Anne-Marie and Mike's wedding is featured.

A blushing bride

These photos of Sarah and Steve's Summer wedding captured by Allison Suter Photography are sure to make you smile.

We first met Sarah at her floral consultation where she brought in an inspiration image from a Martha Stewart Weddings magazine. (You can see this picture on the right of the first image below).

This beautiful inspiration combined with a custom show-stopping gown by New Westminster talent Ellebay Bridal had us instantly excited about their September nuptials at Brock House Restaurant.

We used dahlia, roses, garden roses, lisianthus, blushing brides, sedum, snowberry and eucalyptus, among other blooms, to recreate the look and feel of this inspiration bouquet. We were a little attached to it by the time it was finished!

We think you'll agree this wedding was a natural stunner.

To Have and to Hold

We had a ball at our first Celsia flower school and were thrilled to see so many floral enthusiasts come together for an afternoon of sweet treats and sweet blooms.

Thank you to Soirette Macarons for providing our tasty delights and to our lovely workshop attendees for being so willing and eager to learn!

Here's a few snaps of some of the happenings.
