Today I delivered our first flowers for a wedding - 12 mason jar arrangements as reception table centerpieces at Harvest House at Lost Creek. It was an absolutely gorgeous day - about 80 degrees, sunny, slight breeze, low humidity - perfect day for an outdoor wedding. I realized I should have taken photos of where the ceremony was setting up in a beautiful glade down the hill from the main house and reception venue.
When I met with the bride and we talked about style and color - "rustic" and "pops of color" seemed to resonate most. Hopefully these made her smile. Here are the arrangements on our kitchen table as we were getting ready to transport them.
And below are a few photos from the venue - they were just setting up as I arrived so my flowers were the first things on the table! There were table numbers and wine bottles with sprigs of baby's breath also prepped to go on the tables and I can't wait to see pictures of the final setup.
Most of all, I hope she is happy. I started to get teary-eyed as I thought about the wedding day and just how beautiful weddings are - full of hope and promise. And of course, I was thinking about my darling husband who did so much to help me get these flowers ready - mostly by keeping our two young boys away as I harvested most of the day on Friday and arranged all Saturday morning. Oh - and he figured out the perfect way to transport these arrangements - in cut down wine bottle boxes!
All my best to the bride and groom and their future!
