Tory & Luke's Wedding was a beautiful summer wedding. Despite the heat, this wedding was a lot of fun to be part of. The colors, the style of the arrangements, & the location was very enjoyable. Thank you guys for choosing me to do your flowers! Congratulations!!

There were two styles of centerpieces. The low vases grouping pictured here. The tallest vase and the lowest vase are my rental items. (See rental items page on www.thebackyardgardener.net)

Tall vase centerpieces arranged with roses, dahlias, & snapdragons.

The tall vases are a new rental item now available.

Beautiful arrangement of gladiolas, aranda orchids, roses & dahlias.

Tory wanted these lanterns and kissing balls everywhere. They definitely helped create a fun atmosphere for the ceremony & reception.

Gerber daisy kissing ball.

This orange kissing ball or orange dahlias was my favorite. Lorinda made it....good job Lorinda!

Can you tell what flower this is? I love using carnations this way, you can't even tell that they are carnations.

The color combination here is really beautiful. I loved the brides idea of mixing a soft, pale yellow with the blues. The flowers in these bouquets are light blue hydrangea, roses, mini calla lilies, & green mini cymbidium orchids.

I enjoyed working on these beautiful flowers for Heather & Trevor's wedding. The mini cymbidium orchids were amazing, and I loved how they looked in the boutonnieres. They also looked really well combined with the roses, lisianthus & bouvardia. It was a beautiful combination for their outdoor ceremony. My pictures really don't do the flowers justice. Aaron from Evantide photography, http://www.evantidephotography.com did the photography for the wedding.

"Rain Rain Go Away!"

Jessica & Garret bravely chose a campground near Silver Lake to have their wedding ceremony & reception. It was a great idea, and after lots of rain, it turned out to be a beautiful afternoon & evening. WHEW! Jessica chose gerber daisies & roses to be her main flowers. The red, apricot & light pink flowers really popped out in the forest setting. Congratulations Jessica and Garret! I loved your location, and really thought it was great that your family and friends could stay at the campground and enjoy the weekend.
