Last week we featured a naturalistic Lady Slipper bridesmaid bouquet. This bridal bouquet was a compliment to the same organic inspired wedding at the Hotel Del Coronado.  The bride, Loan was enamored with all things organic, and wanted a loosely arranged bouquet of hand wired gardenias, Charlie Brown cymbidium orchids, and sahara roses.

The bold brown and green colors of the orchid paired perfectly with Charlie Brown and green cymbidium orchids. Sahara roses add an element […]

Purple prevails in this richly colored and textural bouquet. Ruffly cattlya orchids, fuchsia phalaenopsis, striking calla lilies, and lavender roses all join together to create a colorful statement.

We all pay a lot of attention to the beautiful bridal bouquet (as we should) and all the attendants hand held bouquets.  But my personal favorite is designing custom ring boxes and handbags for the special little ones.  I remembered at a previous wedding upon presenting a bejeweled handbag to a 7 yr old, she […]

Gardenias have always symbolized a classy elegant to me. They are beautiful, timeless, and smell AMAZING. If only there were scratch and sniff computer screens for you all to experience this intoxicating bouquet of all hand wired gardenias. ~Aileen

It’s starting to feel a little more like Fall with things like pumpkin spice chai lattes and butternut squash abound. When I came across these richly colored hydrangea, burgundy cymbidium orchids, and schwartzwalder calla lilies, I had to get my hands on them for an autumnal bouquet. Wrapped in an earthy satin ribbon, and you […]

Who hasn’t dreamed of a beach wedding? This bouquet uses subtle colors of white, ivory, and apple green to create a elegant and chic seaside bouquet. Green cymbidium orchids and white phalaenopsis give it a beach inspired feel. Add a touch of bling, an ocean view, and you have a fantasy wedding. ~Aileen
