Vi's Wedding at the Marriott Gaithersburg Washingtonian Center

I'm so happy to share Vi's wedding with you!  Vi wanted simple white and green flowers with navy accents.  After several revisions, we came up with some gorgeous designs that even included a favorite flower to remind Vi of her grandmother.  I'm proud to say that more than half of the flowers used in this wedding were grown in the United States, something that has become increasingly important to Sweet Blossoms over the last year!

Vi's bouquet was made up of only freesia, ranunculus and tulips.  The bridesmaids carried bouquets of white tulips, to remind Vi of her grandmother.


Vi had an adorable flower girl who got to wear a one-of-a-kind flower halo made of white spray roses and sea star fern.  I love the accent of the green with the white flowers!
 

There was one more cutie who helped Vi make her way to the aisle.

Here are some more of my favorite pictures from the day.  Vi's married name is Vi King!  Get it?  Viking? I love plays on words!
 

 I love the blue ribbon details on Vi's bouquet of satin, organza and a two-toned wired ribbon to finish of her satin-wrapped bouquet.
 

 

I love when the couple has fun foot attire!  These two had real flare!  

The boutonnieres were made of white spray roses and accented with sea star fern.  I loved using the spiky leaves of the fern to incorporate green into the design.  

The altar arrangements were created with white larkspur, Bells of Ireland, jumbo white hydrangea and green hanging amaranthus.  I love the way the amaranthus dripped from the top of the vase! 

Thanks so much to Ann Hoang from Anny Photography for the beautiful images!

Sage's Wedding at Stone Manor Country Club



In June, I had the privilege of designing a wedding for Sage at Stone Manor Country Club.  Sage wanted a wedding with lots of large blossoms and greenery.  Thank you so much to Katie at Merkle Photography for the beautiful photographs.  Below are some of my favorites from the evening.

 
Sage's bouquet was made of white peonies, white spray roses, white ranunculus, and white astilbe, accented with Italian ruscus and jasmine vine.

 


Just look at the joy on Sage's face as she walked down the aisle towards her future husband, what a beautiful family! 


In addition to her cake, Sage had an assortment of pies for her guests to enjoy.  Her cake was topped with white peonies, pink lisianthus and fresh jasmine vine.

 
 Sage had two table arrangements, one with assorted mercury glass bud vases, and the other with a mercury glass compote bowl.  The vases were filled with white peonies, peach and blush spray roses, white astilbe, white ranunculus, pink roses, and (my favorite) Quicksand roses.  The tables were also accented with mercury glass votive candle holders.

Sage also had arrangements set stop white pillars to flank the doors of the reception tent.  These were mercury glass vases filled with white hydrangea, pink roses, Quicksand roses, beautiful peach French tulips, Italian ruscus, jasmine vine, larkspur and blush and peach spray roses.  I love the smiles on the happy couple's faces as they join their guests for their reception!

 
Such a beautiful setting out in the rolling hills of Frederick, MD.
  
 


 


I could not have asked for a more beautiful bride, a more beautiful setting, or a more beautiful venue!  I am always happy to be designing at Stone Manor.  What is your favorite accent from this wedding?
