We absolutely love working with the SLO mission and staff. Everyone is so friendly and the mission is so beautiful. When working with the mother of the groom for this wedding, she really loved the murals on the interior of the chapel in the mission-which we love too! The murals have indigos, violets, crimsons, apricots, corals, jades, and buttery golds. We all wanted to incorporate those colors into the arrangements that would be at the altar, but still staying mainly white because it is a traditional wedding. We think they turned out lovely!

Summer Bouquets



Simple leaf work to wrap bouquet and secure with ribbon



Simple leaf-tied bouquet
If you are on a budget (as most Brides are), a way to keep that bridal bouquet and the bridesmaids bouquets from becoming too expensive is to allow greens to be incorporated into the bouquet, as well as filler flowers, and less technique/ribbon wrapping around the stems. Hand-tied bouquets that have wildflowers in them are really popular right now, and actually can be priced somewhat cheaper than a bouquet that has only form flowers/main flowers in it. These can be cheaper and just as large because of the filler and greens that can be added. Just something to think about!

Lilies & Clematis Box

I initially had my boyfriend build these boxes so that we could use them to transport our arrangements to the venues. However, they are doubling as containers especially for large tables or long skinny tables as a centerpiece.
