Wedding photos - love them peonies!

I had a blast arranging the flowers for this wedding, the color palate was so soft and elegant that any flowers would have looked great together. I do enjoy getting some free rein when it comes to design also! : ) The last picture is the surprise lounge table piece I created for the bride - though originally supposed to be 4 squares on one table, we had to improvise once we got the reception hall and divide up my vases for 2 tables.

The brides bouquet was nothing short of stunning. Packing in 6 inch diameter peonies as focal points and collaring them with large cymbidium orchids. Delightful!






The bridesmaids bouquets were also a combination of light pink and hot pink peonies tangled with some calla lilies and bear grass. The look was kept very simple and classy, definitely drawing most attention to the flowers and reflecting the simplicity of the bridesmaids knee length dresses.
These were originally to be all calla lilies, but mother nature threw a curve ball and grew teeny tiny white calla lilies. The addition of the peonies was a sure bet!










The super fun lounge table design. The charcoal grey river rock really complimented the grey linens for the sitting area and adding a nice contrasting background to the floating peonies and swirling calla lilies. They would have been lost on the white linens.
These would be great for a long rectangle guest tables too - for those looking for something more unique and contemporary.
