French Country

A lovely french country style arrangement I did for a friend who owns a wonderful boutique, Habitat in Ukiah, Ca. I love the soft and oh-so-fragrant feel it has. I combined Peonies, Delphiniums, garden Spray Roses, Rosemary, Jasmine and Teatree branches, perfect!

Hope it brightened your day,

Purple Blooms and Feathers

I love Iris', and I don't think they are ever used to their full potential, so I did a couple bouquets to show them off a bit!

 This is a bouquet I made on a whim mainly of blue and purple Iris' and purple hyacinths. I really enjoy the accent of wired hyacinth blooms hanging down in the front.

This is one of my favorite "snazzy" boutonniere, hand wired hyacinth blooms, a single yellow spray rose, rose hips and of course, the peacock feather. All wrapped in a rich blue grosgrain ribbon. The perfect blend of formality with personality.

This is the matching bridal bouquet of purple Hyacinths, Iris', bright purple Tulips, yellow Freesia to pick up the touches of yellow in the Iris', and peacock feathers. One of my all time favorite purple and blue looks.

Elise + Mark

This is one of my favorite weddings from a few years back. The couple decided to go for a very finished look for their September wedding, and used red as their theme color. Perfect for stunning photographs! The bride adored mango mini callas and green cymbidium orchids, which had to be specially ordered in bulk from Ecuador. A lush combination of the callas and cymbidium orchids paired with green hydrangeas, deep red roses, velvety coxcomb, red dahlias and accents of pears, pomegranates, and grapes (drawing in the local Napa flavor!) created a stunning result.

The entrance gates were hung with extra large fresh flower wreaths accented with 2" grosgrain ribbon.

The ceremony decor was a combination of two large urns of the previously mentioned flowers with the addition of Bells of Ireland for height. The aisle runner was a carpet of red rose petals with a monogram of white rose petals in the letter H.

Red silk covered Tussie mussie's lined the aisle on each chair.

The bride and grooms table was different than the rest of the tables, a low arrangement with a touch of white rested on their personal table.


The bride carried a simple but stunning bouquet of two dozen red roses, while the bridesmaids carried small bouquets of red dahlias, mango callas, and red roses. The boutonnieres were single mango callas.

Hope you enjoyed!
