corsages!

Corsages are done! I love my mommy. Aren't they pretty?!

Both of the corsages and boutonnieres!

bouquets!

My bridesmaids are going to be some stylish ladies.

My mom finished the girls' bouquets yesterday and they are prefect!! Exactly how we wanted them to look, with each one a bit different (just like the girls!) but all of them blending perfectly. I love them!

All of them! Far left one is Kelsey, then Tina, the next two are Sara and Amelia's, the little one on the end is Skyler's!

Closeup of Tina's and then Sara and Amelia's (they have to pick which they want!)

So pretty! She did an incredible job. And the best part, is that they wont die or lose their beauty! I am so excited to show them off at the wedding. Not to mention how awesome the pictures will be! :D

more pretties

More pretty pretties! My mom just keeps on making such pretty arrangements. It's going to just blow people away at the wedding, everyone is going to be asking to take them home!!! We could never, NEVER in a million years have ever hoped or expected for our flowers to have turned out so incredible for our wedding. It's more than we could have dreamed. I am so lucky to have such an incredible and talented mommy. :)















I can't wait to see them all set up and pretty at the wedding. They are going to be so stunning!

aisle flowers

My mom just keeps making so many pretty things.

So a few weeks ago she sent me this pretty picture of an idea for ceremony decorations for the chairs. They are really pretty, simple lilies and tulle that add just that right amount to the ceremony without taking away from the pretty fall scenery.

And here she sent me pictures of them done, and they are even prettier than the original picture! I'm so excited, I think they are going to look really, really nice!







Yay for pretties!!!

flowers!

So many new goodies today! YAY!!!!!! I love them all!! And they are all so different from one another, that is my favorite!

flowers again!

More pretty arrangements!!!


I LOVE THEM!!! Yay for talented mom!!

So pretty! It looks even better when being held. I cant wait to see it in person next month! I love the feathers...yay!

bouquet!

As promised, here are the AMAZING pictures of my bouquet for the wedding made by my super talented mommy.

It quite honestly turned out even better than I had imagined that it ever would, and it made all of my second guessing on whether or not I should have went with the real flowers go away! This way, it is just how I want it, and it is definitely much more elaborate that I ever would have been able to create with real flowers. AND, the best part- these will never die. They will always look just as amazing as they do now, so I can preserve them and even take it out every once in a while without the fear of them falling apart and breaking.

And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the broach on it. She even put antique earrings and other bling inside the actual bouquet to add sparkle- love it! So every one oooh and ahhhh with me and look at the amazingness!

Closeup of some of the details inside, see the earrings!!?!

Side View!

My only requirement was that she put a Stargazer Lily inside. It's my favorite flower, and also one of the main flowers she had inside her bouquet when she got married, which is why I had to have it.

More pictures will follow of Kelsey holding it to see how it looks when held!

more mom amazing-ness!!

You know all of the amazing centerpieces that my amazing mother has made for the wedding? Well there are more I need to put up here, I just need to find them. But aside from that, because I really, really like them, I've asked if she would want to make the bouquets and corsages and boutonnieres and whatnot for the wedding. She was a little stressed by the thought I could tell, but just a couple weeks later, she already had mine done. And it is STUNNING! It love, love, love it. The colors and the details, yay! And she put antique broaches and vintage jewlery inside, which is makes it even prettier. I'm waiting to put up a couple pictures because I she is supossed to be sending me a picture of my sister holding it so I can get a feel for the size, and I want to put that up to see the perspective. But it's gorgeous. And you all will get to see it, hopefully later tonight. I'm even more excited now, because I dont have to pay to preserve it after the wedding, and it will never loose it's coloring or wilt! How amazing is that?!

I'm also carrying her veil down the aisle wrapped around the bouquet. She tried to wrap it around the stems, which is what I wanted, but because it's attached to a comb she couldnt get it to fit just right. My sister wants to use it for her wedding someday, so we had to keep the comb attached (grrr. I had wanted to keep it on the bouquet forever to preserve it and have it be my little piece from my mom's wedding...I guess as long as Kelsey doesnt get to KEEP it I'll be ok...haha!). So now I'm just going to wrap it around and hold it there for the ceremony, which as long as it's there, is fine with me!

Look for pictures soon!!

more pretties!!!

Yay! More amazing and beautiful arrangements from my wonderful mommy. I was showing these to Adam tonight and he is especially fond of the burgundy and green one. I am partial to the cream and brown (it's my favorite so far!!!!). He was saying how everyone is going to be so impressed at the reception, because the flowers are so good. He said they are all going to think we went all out and spent so much money on everything. :) I can't wait to see everything all set up at the actual reception. If they look this good sitting in my mom's dining room, think of how amazing they will be actually set up and decorated!!

My favorite!!! Isn't it so beautiful! I love, love LOVE the feathers! And the colors
are just perfect.

This one is Adam's favorite. He says it looks really elegant and rich. :)

I love how this one is so bright. They are all so uniquely different- I love it! Definitely not
something that we could have gotten anywhere else. YAY!

I cant wait to see more. She's starting on the smaller, table arrangements now and I cant wait. Apparently there is a smaller vase that matches the vase in my favorite arrangement. I am excited for that one...

more centerpieces!

More centerpieces!! And they just keep on getting better! I'm so excited to see them all in person in a week. My mommy is just so talented!









So excited! And I'm LOVING the feathers! I can't wait for the branches she's going to start using!!

flowers!

As many of you probably already know, my wonderful mom is in charge of the flowers for the wedding. I never thought twice about it, she is so incredibly talented and her stuff is so beautiful that I wasnt worried at all about how they would turn out. We went out last fall and picked out the flowers and some of the vases and I was so excited! She's in charge of making all of the centerpieces for the reception and whatnot.

Well, I was sitting at work this morning and she sends me the pictures of the first arrangement! It's the biggest one, and it is absolutely STUNNING!

Isn't it just AWESOME?!?

The back view!

I can't wait to see the rest of them!!!

pretty

I really like this centerpiece. I keep hounding my mom to start making them so I can post pictures!! I'm excited, because I know they are going to turn out so nice.

flower time

I've been thinking for a while now what I was going to do for flowers...and I still haven't decided. My mom is making all of the centerpieces, so I'm not worried about those, but for the bouquets I think I want to do the real flowers. I just love seeing the flowers delivered to the wedding and smelling all pretty and it just really brings the whole thing together and makes it more...real? I dont know. That and I want to preserve it, and I just think the real ones look so pretty.

I know I want to have a big bouquet, but more of a cascading one, not the typical round. I also like the arm ones, but I think I like the cascading more. And I know that I want Tina's and Kelsey's to be different than the rest...at least I think. Ha-can we tell I'm indecisive? And colors? I have no idea. I want mine to have stargazer lilies and white roses...but our colors are fall, and I want the girls to carry those colors. But that may look ridiculous.

I just dont know. I'm so undecisive!

I think this is my favorite

Obviously some of these I just like the style and not the flowers inside...I mean I do want other flowers than just lilies!
