Peonies...yes!

Thinking of spring.....

Vintage Villas open house--Sunset room!

We dressed the Sunset room in more yellow!! Appropriate for a late afternoon open house.. one of our favorite treatments, really for anything-- yards of ribbons with a few floral accents.

Long dinner table filled with lanterns, wine bottles, wood boxes, florals in yellow and white, succulents..a great table to enjoy my lunch.

A little closer ....

Our version of sunshine....

A few weeks ago, we headed out to Vintage Villas for a Sunday afternoon open house and yes, it was hot!

These adorable pomanders graced the aisle chairs..

these crystal curtains hung from the gazebo, accented with mercury glass and a few randomly placed daisies.

Adds a touch of elegance to this outdoor lake venue--I can see these at so many places...

Oh, fall wedding flowers....

As we patiently wait the fall season, after our brutally hot summer, I thought I would share some favorites from last fall.

A bridal bouquet filled with seasonal fall flowers--dahlias, scabiosa, lisianthus, miniature calla liles, protea just to name a few.

Bridesmaids had very similar bouquets, smaller and with less purple...

And ceremony decor to finish the look---

thanks to Vanessa for the images.

Succulents.....

Looking back on a wedding from fall 2010....a destination wedding that took place in Horseshoe Bay.

A few requests from the bride and groom--lots of orange ( Longhorn pride), a multicultural ceremony (Vietnamese+Christian),

succulents (their favorites) and simple.

The brides bouquet--delivered at 8am for the Vietnamese tea ceremony and still looking gorgeous for the evening ceremony and reception.

Possibly, one of my favorite centerpieces of all time--a combination of pillar candles, succulents and cactus--simple, elegant with a hint of organic.

Bride and bridesmaids.

Thanks to Hooked On photography for these images.

Bright as Sunshine-- yellow

Photographers always come up with these amazing "ring shots"--this time using

craspedia as the prop.

This is such a cute cake with its very simple textured icing and the pop of yellow--this time ranunucla.

And the bride-- her favorite, gerbera daisy with the accents of craspedia, and freesia.

Thanks to Rebel with a Camera for the images.

Yellow= springtime sweet.

My inbox is overflowing with gorgeousness--

some of the springs favorites--absolutely love the sweet, soft, feminine feel to this bride.

Super adorable blue bridesmaids dresses, just a touch of ruffles and accented with yellow.

This touch of blue--tweedia. Lovely for the spring.

Now its time to confess--I do not know where these images originated--photographer, if these were done by you, please remind me so I can give proper credit:(
