I really enjoyed working with this mother daughter duo. What is really ironic about this wedding is that they share many of the same characteristics as the "FALLING IN LOVE IS COLORFUL" wedding blog posted below. Same last name, mom and bride started working with me about a year out, came with a wonderful coordinator and really let me help them plan the floral and decor. I should really apologize for not posting this wedding sooner.
So without further delay, please allow me to introduce you to Mr. & Mrs. Christina Hall. I had the pleasure of working with them on their June 2009 wedding. With the guidance and support of
Tamuel from Remembering When and the expertise of
Juan Guzman of the Rosen Plaza, this wedding is no less than short of a platinum experience. Thank you to Mrs.
Abreu (MOB) and each of these individuals for helping create a wedding for the sight and senses. Christina carried an all white cascading bouquet of white mini calla lilies, white roses, hand wired
cymbidium orchid blossoms and
stephanotis with delicate rhinestones placed in the throat of each.
The cocktail hour was just as spectacular as the dinner reception. Food for days and it was so enjoyable. Thank you to Mrs.
Abreu for inviting me and my partner to this reception. The cocktail pieces were originally adorning the church pews. Multiple shades of hot pink hydrangea and lime green mutton mums were placed in cube vases filled with water and illuminated by candle light. Ideally these would be great centerpieces or guest table accents.
Two arrangements designed in a bird bath style glass vessels were the center of the cocktail reception room. An artistic and semi-blocked arrangement of large white roses, open cut calla lilies, stargazer lilies, pink hydrangea and curly willow carried the color and style the bride desired.
The center of the reception focused on the bride and groom at the corners of this large head table. Designed so the couple had a clear view of every guest enjoying themselves and to take in the beauty of the room. Towering 42" palace vases with pink and white floral including roses, stargazer lilies, white
dendrobium orchid sprays and curly willow branches were placed in two corners of this 10' square table setting. The vases were dripping with long crystal strands and the open space in the middle of this royal setting stood towers of candles and floral.
I think everyone agreed, this room never looked better in pink. A first glance and a first dance where all this room needed to create a magical evening and
experience.
The guest tables carried the same theme as the head table just as a shorter version. The head table was dressed with a pink
lamour underlay with a White Dahlia overlay. The guest tables carried through the pink underlay theme but with a white shimmer sheer overlay. All provided by
BBJ Linens.
The escort table arrangement designed differently but with the same style in mind was later moved to the party favor table.
The dynamic duo taking time to pose for what would be one of 2009's premier wedding events. Ever wonder how that fabric gets hung? Well we now know who to blame if it comes tumbling down.
Thanks to
David Basher of A Magic Moment for providing most of these images. He sent me many more so please let me know if you what like images with a different perspective.
I honestly don't know what is more exiting after picking up the recent issue of Central Florida Bride magazine? I guess it is a combination of having three featured weddings, three great couples, being featured with some of my favorite and definitely Central Florida's best wedding professionals and now getting to share this excitement with you.
The first wedding is another wedding designed with Blush by Brandee Gaar and captured by the talents of Studio 222 Photographer What I loved about this wedding was that the bride allowed us to create about six different styled centerpieces for about 12 guest tables. Rather than spread the designs amongst our talented team, Janice Prewitt took my vision for each style and created one of my all time favorite pink and white weddings even using baby's breath here and there. All the little elements infused in this wedding created a sophisticated and chic southern wedding with elegance and style.
What is special about this wedding is that Donna Cooke from the Wyndham Orlando Resort could have garnered the talents of anyone in Orlando, but her and daughter Marisa chose to work with me and Greenery Productions. It was such an honor to work this intimately with an industry professional.
Thanks to David Basher from A Magic Moment for capturing such great images. Creating unique and eye catching designs with deep burgundy floral was left to us. In the article, the bride listed Greenery Productions as the most important vendor. "I met with my florist twice and went over species of flowers, colors, and vases, but left the design to the professionals. I was ecstatic when I saw how beautiful and perfectly coordinated they were." Thank you Marisa, we had a great time designing your wedding.
Lastly is the wedding of Janelle & Leon. Modest was Janelle, that I was the only one permitted to call her Dr. Haynes. I enjoyed every moment of planning with Janelle and her coordinator (of my favorites of course) Kerline of Joie De Vie Weddings & Events. Janelle was such a delight a constant reminder why we do what we do. She allowed me and the Greenery Productions team to design a wedding that was modern, edgy, unique yet captured her and Leon's personality. From the linens, to the chairs, cake, centerpieces and ceremony, she allowed me to bring all the elements together and truly valued our thoughts and opinions. Other images can be seen in a post last year.
Perhaps some of my favorite planning discussions surrounded the cake with the floral, glass and acrylic riser designed by none other than the talents of Party Flavors. Thank you so much Carrie Wildes Photography for capturing such wonderfully detailed images and sharing them with all the vendors and that ultimately led to this wonderful article.
