Purple at The Plantation House

I loved the setup of this purple wedding--this napkin presentation is one of my personal favorites-- accent with an urn of purple spring flowers and you have prettiness!

I loved this bridal bouquet-- shades of purples accented with a touch of cream--flowers included to die for lilac, hydrangea, viburnum, garden roses, tulips and sweet peas!

The shepherds hooks lined the aisleway--our bride was highly organized--sometimes brides bring in "inspiration boards", she arrived with an inspiration CD with no less than 50 images-- so happy I was able to complete the vision.

Thanks to Melissa Glynn photography for the images--awesome as usual!

I write this blog in first person, but without my awesome design and delivery teams none of this would come together!

Spectacular centerpieces

 

Tall centerpieces can be one of the most dramatic additions to a reception-

A few things to keep in mind when choosing tall floral centerpieces,

make sure that they do not  block  the guests view across the table-

that is one of my biggest pet peeves!  

 

Adding elements on the table creates a very finished presentation-once the guests are seated they have something beautiful to look at-

 

Make sure the room can take the volume of the centerpiece-- your professional florist should be familiar with the venue and can give ideas for the space!
