yellow rose of texas

Happy Sunday!! I had to take the day to give a shout out to my very own Bows + Arrows for them landing the COVER (yes, the cover!!) of Southern Weddings!! This was a “Yellow Rose of Texas” theme and it turned out so gorgeous. So proud of Stephanie Miles and Ryan Ray for making this come to life. Can’t wait to collocate on another shoot.

four legged friends

We recently just got a kitten. So of course I’m loving all the photographs of how couples incorporated their pets into their wedding. I love how couples are able to involve their furry friends in their special day. It adds such a personal touch!

Table numbers can be so boring… a black number on a generic white table tent… so get creative and spice it up a bit! Here are some of my favorite ideas.

You may have gathered that I do way more than just flowers! I love all things craft too! What you may not know, is my deep love for pom poms….I used store bought mini poms for my 2009 wedding sprinkling them down the center of our family style tables a la runner and handmade pom pom wreaths hung over the entry doors to our venue! The pom squad is now in full force and here are some clever ways to use these puffy little yarn pretties!

rose hall

January 7th, 2013 | Posted by Hello Love in Parties | Style - (Comments Off)

Over the holidays we went to Jamaica and visited Rose Hall, a “haunted house” in Montego Bay built in the 1700′s… a gorgeous building with an incredible story. You can read the story here but the short version is Annie Palmer married John Palmer, a very weathly Jamaican. Annie murdered John, two other husbands and her slave lovers and is known as the “White Witch of Rose Hall.” Supposedly she haunts it and I think many Jamaicans believe that is true. Nonetheless, the grounds are fascinating and well worth investigating if you are thinking destination.

Who doesn’t love ombre right now? For this farm wedding, Wendy (Birds of A Feather), designed a modern yet rustic wedding with pink ombre throughout the wedding with no detail left un noticed. Everything from an ombre carpet of rose petals down the aisle, ombre painted mason jars, hand dyed ombre napkins, and  a giant ombre initial for the guest sign in! Viva Ombre!
