Ricki Lake's Wedding Flowers

I saw pictures of Ricki Lake's private little wedding in the People magazine and thought it was actually quite romantic!   I loved her lace dress, but mostly, of course, I loved her wedding flowers :)  Love this vintage-but-upscale wildflower look.  Her bouquet looks to be made of garden roses, purple lilac and purple lisianthus.  I am not sure what the silver grey flower is though.  The ceremony pieces are bells of ireland,  blue delphinium, coowater roses, purple lisianthus and purple hydrangeas. If anyone wants to emulate this look for their wedding this summer, I'd be more than happy to style something like this!

Organic "Peacock" Wedding @ The Doctor's House, Kleinburg

 our organic "peacock-inspired" creation!

 

the overall aesthetic in the newly renovated The Doctor's House ... so pretty

ceremony arrangements with peacock feathers

This past weekend, I made the florals for Teresa and Wolvyn's beautiful organic wedding at The Doctor's House in Kleinburg, ON.  The Doctor's House has been beautifully renovated by the way ...  you should check it out!  Anyway,  the inspiration behind their wedding design was the "peacock."  The reason?  Wolvyn is from India, and peacocks are the country's national bird.  There was an explanation of this on every table.  It was wonderful.  A great organic feel in a modern setting.  What do you think?  And how cool is the name Wolvyn, by the way? Love it.

The explanation of the significance of the peacock feathers on each table...very cool!

Mother's Day Promo!

I am a mother of three young boys, so I love to celebrate Mother's Day! And I love to help others celebrate Mother's Day too, by making lovely flower arrangements for all the fellow Mom's out there!  I know how many diapers you have changed :) That's why, this year, to celebrate the launch of my new website and blog, I'd like to offer 10% off all Mothers Day orders! Call my shop (Floral Classics) and mention you saw this on the blog to get the discount:  1-888-371-9999. I'd be happy to make something up for your mom, and deliver it to her too.

Here's a unique arrangement I made recently - I love the combination of pinks and greens, especially in the springtime. So fresh!  Oh,  I just had a thought.  When my boys are old enough send me Mother's Day flowers, will they order them through me, so I'll have to send them to myself?!
