2012 Weddings

I have been so extremely busy with all of the awesome weddings that we have had the pleasure of being a part of this year that I have fallen behind on updating our blog and fb. Here is just a taste of some of the flowers from our 2012 weddings...much more to come!!!

The Links at Union Vale 2012 Bridal Expo

Here are some images of the flowers that we designed for the Links at Union Vale Bridal Expo in February~

Our lovely table!

 

I found this idea on pinterest. Brides at the expo absolutely loved this as a centerpiece idea!

"Ghost" Wedding Dresses

Get a load of these "ghost dresses". What a neat idea for decor at an outside wedding ceremony... especially around Halloween! They're actually kinda spooky...

For the Love of Lavender

Lavender is one of my absolute favorite blooms (hence, the name of our studio~ Lavender & Leaf Designs)! It is actually an herb in the mint family and has a wonderful scent that is said to promote calming and relaxing mood. Here are some fun ways that we have incorporated this fabulous herb into different events ~

Lavender macaroons...yummo!

I love the look of the Feathered eucalyptus mixed with sprigs of lavender draped around this cake

Lavender boutonnieres

These lovely invitations can be found at Blue Magpy Invitations

Lavender lemonade...perfect for a hot summer wedding

Lavender blooms are a nice alternative to petals or confetti

Cynthia & Brian- Septmeber 24, 2011

Even though Cynthia and Brian's nuptials were set to take place the day after Autumn began, they weren't quite ready to give up on summer just yet. Cynthia chose navy blue, strapless dresses for her bridesmaids and we complimented their look with fun, vibrant peach and coral gerber daisies, with accents of cream for the glowing bride.The overall look gave off the feel of a spectacular summer day (along with the gorgeous weather!). They said their "I Do's" at the ever so grand Blessed Kateri Church in Lagrangeville NY and then celebrated at our favorite venue, the Links at Union Vale. These fabulous photos were provided by Mark Greenstone of Majestic Studios.

 

Succulents Galore!

Here are some gorgeous bouquets that feature some rather interesting succulents. Succulents, with their striking forms and unusual colors, are becoming an increasingly popular design element in wedding bouquets, centerpieces and even boutonnieres.Great idea for the Eco-chic bride as they can be planted even after they have been cut for your bouquet!
