Mango Wedding {Part Two}

I shared with you in an earlier post

Mango Wedding {the Flowers}

Now I want to tell you about the details of the wedding.

{Mango Wedding}

I met my couple through Nikki, At Tale of Two Truffles, and we met on a dark and stormy Sunday afternoon a few months ago and they weer such a nice, easy going couple. This was a vow renewal so they were pros by the time this second wedding was happening so we wrapped everything up in pretty much that one sitting. Met, discussed, looked at pictures, booked-DONE!

They wanted orange and yellow, and were a bit torn so we met halfway and decided on orange with yellow to orange callas.
First up was the delivery of an altar piece for the Church.
I drove in the glorious sun to Woodside CA.
Cutest Chapel EVER!

Here is the close up of the arrangement.
I used pink and orange snap dragons, rust colored rununculas, Milva roses, Bluperum, Lemon, fern, scotch broom, and yellow spray roses.

Here is my sister, praying for forgiveness......she cursed in church so I told her she was going to hell and she should repent. She believed me so she pulled up a pew. hehe...little sisters...


We agreed I would be dropping off all the personal flowers to make it easy on them for transport so here they are.
The lucky Groom Boutonniere.


Corsages for mothers.

Finally, the Bridal Bouquet.

Then it was off to Bistro Vida in Menlo Park to drop off a few centerpiece.



I really loved it in there. The walls were a rich shade of ox blood, the paintings in their were great, I already have plans to go back!

Then it was time to go.

Lovely day for a wedding and I am so happy that M&L let me be a part of their day!
Continued love and success to you both! :)

Mango Wedding {The flowers}

My fabulous Menlo Park couple re-tied the knot today and I dropped off a few goodies for them.

Confession time:

I wanted to eat the brides bouquet.
Seriously.
I have this weird habit when I'm extremely happy or visually stimulated by something outrageously fantabulous, I tend to express my thoughts in extreme ways that don't make sense to most people......like if an arrangement somewhere stops me in my tracks I say:

"They are so gorgeous I want to eat them."
or
"Ugh. They're so fabulous I want to puke."
or
"OMG, the color is so ridiculous , I CAN"T STAND IT!!!"

My husband is used to this but when I say it out loud to some people, they look at me all strange....what they don't know is that sadly that's practically the best thing my brain can come up with when its on beauty overload! hehe.
I have issues :P
ALSO!
I got a new camera for mother's day and I just want to show off my pictures to you.

I love my camera so much, I want to eat it!
See? Now you get me.



Milva Roses and Coral Hypericum.

Scotch broom is growing wild right now and I adore it! :)

Mango Callas.


I mean look at these GORGEOUS yellow spray roses

Don't they make you sick???
Or is it just me?
oh.

So then it was off to work.

I loved making this bouquet so much because I truly love Milva roses and Mango Callas.

Stay tuned........
