an "elegant lodge" style affair

Just when I thought my 2012 wedding season was over, Bekah contacted me about the flowers for her December wedding. She was looking for a detailed, elegant style, while staying true to her rustic lodge theme. We incorporated many "wintery" elements (pinecones, evergreens, and frosty silver-green foliage) while taking care not to look "Christmasy". I absolutely LOVE how these turned out!
A huge thanks to Paper Antler for the stunning photographs! I seriously have at least 35 pictures in my "You HAVE to put these on the blog" list... this husband&wife photography team is incredible.





Fun fact: those tiny little pinecones aren't pinecones at all! They're the seed pod of a totally different type of evergreen.


  Silver Brunia "balls" added even more glorious texture, while some really interesting grey-green evergreen foliage added that conifer touch without looking like a Christmas tree's heavy branches.

We do our best to tailor each wedding's packaging & presentation for that specific event - notice we left our lime green labels and silver trays at home for this delivery :)
Both the mother of the bride & mother of the groom wore wrist corsages on understated matte grey beaded wristlets. These are so much more comfortable than the elastic band you wore to prom, and gives sentimental moms the option of a keepsake bracelet after the flowers have faded.
