To us its more than just flowers!

Photography by Sarah Babcock Studio – The Dayton Arcade – Nuage Linens – Table Top by Prime Time Party Rental – KMC Weddings If wedding flowers are a top priority for your wedding day, you’ll want to hire an event florist who specializes in wedding work. There are different types of florists with different areas of expertise. Your local flower shop can design bouquets and centerpieces for you, but they probably don’t offer the extensive rental selection a wedding florist does.  Elaborate custom pieces probably aren’t an option.

Fall, here we come!

With the summer heat and drought coming to an end, we were inspired by the colors of this wedding.  These pictures are from a wedding we did last year on Miami, Oxford campus.  Of course the theme “Fall,” was shown in many places; from the pumpkins on the tables, to the mums and berries and the twigs throughout the taller arrangements, the room was a color explosion of warm earth tones!  What a great overall theme.

Something White

  A beautiful bouquet of Vendela ivory Roses covered in white Gardenias.  This bouquet had the most amazing scent!  Can you imagine 17 gardenias?  It was quite sweet. The bridesmaids wore dusty lavender dresses, all with Ivory flowers.  What a beautiful wedding party! The beautiful Bride & Groom. Our bride Farida, is from the Dayton area but she is currently is Medical School in Chicago.  She met her photographer Andrew, of John Andrews Photography and realized he was the wedding photographer for her.  So he made the treck to Dayton, all 272 miles to shoot this amazing wedding!  And wow, was it worth it!  Check out more of his work at JohnAndrewsphotography.com
