We had the pleasure of working with our friends from Chumash Casino & Hotel for the Catersource show this year. We can’t think of a better way to leap into Spring for this special event!

Davia, from Chumash Casino created and designed this beautiful concept ~ We were whisked away in this whimsical garden with butterflies and blossoms all around!

This bright romantic combination of Garden roses, Sweet pea, Hyacinth, Lisianthus, Lilac, and Ranunculus is pure magic.

Beautiful colors of spring ~ pink, peach, cream, white, and lilac with touches of green bring it all to life!

Celebrate the setting of Natural Beauty with artful bouquets and images that mix flowers, fern leaves, grass, and even a butterfly or two!

We were awarded “ The Most Innovated Table and Use of Decor” for this real life garden tea party. Great Job Chumash design team!

We look forward to working with you again in the future … Cheers!

A big thank you to Adam Frazier Photography for capturing the true beauty of this event!

We are happy to share with you images from Mytae and Jay’s nature inspired wedding. Details so perfectly placed for the ceremony held at the St Francis of Assisi Catholic Church followed by a beautiful reception at the Las Vegas Country Club.

Capturing the classic elements mixed with fresh, modern details, we added a pop of color to create an elegant, gorgeous affair.

We introduce to you the bird-cage … a perfect accent for any table.

We love that it’s pink!

Sticking with natural elements, burlap and handmade floral cutouts makes this sweetheart table a perfect place for these two lovebirds to nest.

Mytae’s bouquet is made up of traditional classic white floral with hints of natural, green accents.  Absolutely Stunning!

We were honored to be a part of this special day … Congratulations Mytae and Jay!

Susan and Kim’s Wedding ~ Tuscany Country Club

Posted by layersoflovely11 in Uncategorized and tagged with , , , , , , , , , , , ,

We had the pleasure of working with Susan and Kim on creating a theme that embraced classic vintage and romantic images. The Tuscany Country Club was the perfect location to host the artistry that this couple had envisioned for their wedding.

After a beautiful ceremony outside on the club grounds, the couple and their guests spent the rest of the evening indoors surrounded by layers of Deep plum, Eggplant and Coral with hints of Chartreuse green.

Deep plum linens with burlap runners provided a Tuscan, vintage feel along with the use of antique silver and mismatched china, accented with fresh fruits and vegetables.

We especially loved the idea of using wooden boxes and wine bottles filled with floral to add depth to the room…picture perfect!

We were captivated by the array of color in Susan’s bouquet composed of a rich mix of hydrangea, anemones, ranunculus, and dahlias .

Kim and his groomsmen had the same mix of vibrant color for a casual look of tailored perfection

Congratulations Susan and Kim…Thank you for letting us be a part of your special day!

We were thrilled to be a part of the Bridal Spectacular Show this year where we had the pleasure of showcasing beautiful floral while creating memorable experiences for the brides who stopped by our booth.

Natural, earthy, organic inspirations added with a touch of vintage romance provided the vision for our brides to get a feel of what their perfect day would look like.

Quite charming and ever-so-lovely, this elegant outdoor setting made us forget we were indoors. A little preview for what’s in store for Spring!

We were honored to receive the Dazzle Award for our creativity and unique inspirations that were showcased in our booth.

 Thank you to Adam Frazier of Artistic Imaging for capturing the beauty of this spectacular wedding weekend!

Randee and Zach’s August wedding in Jackson Hole Wyoming

Posted by layersoflovely11 in Uncategorized and tagged with , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

We love getting to work in new places and have new challenges, Randee and Zach’s wedding was no exception. Jackson Hole, Wyoming is beautiful and the Diamond Cross Ranch where Randee and Zach tied the knot made for an amazing backdrop for this beautiful wedding.

The ceremony had the most amazing view of the Grand Tetons. Staying with the rustic feel of the wedding we used burlap to swag the arch as well as down the aisle. Moss buckets were filled with ivory florals and hung from hooks down the aisle.

Randee’s bouquet was composed of a rich mix of vendela roses, garden roses, blushing brides, freesia and sweet pea, accented with some navy privet berries and green fern leaves to bring in her wedding colors. Since we are such texture lovers we wrapped her bouquet with burlap, covered it in lace and than added a jewel embellishment that had some pewter floral stitching.

The bridesmaids had the same mix of roses but than we added in poppy pods and thistle to make the bouquets colorful and texturally rich. The flower girl carried a moss purse accented with lace and a jewel buckle.

For the reception we used two different design ideas. One was a large wood box filled with floral and the other was a grouping of vases, jars and bottles all containing mini arrangements. We accented votive candles with navy lace and placed them on all of the tables. Rosemary was placed at each setting for a little added touch. 

Thank you Randee and Zach for letting us be part of your special day. It was an amazing experience and we feel so fortunate to have been a part of it.

We had the pleasure of spending the day with Jerri and Mark of Jerri Woolworth Weddings & Events at the Four Seasons just playing with ideas for some beautiful floral designs. It was so much fun just getting to create something spectacular and playing with different design options. All 3 of the pieces were filled with different shades of red roses, and a 2 different types of hot pink roses. We threw in some purple orchids and hydrangea to give it a little different shape and a pop of color.

The white linen in this next picture is none other than the La Tavola New York. AMAZING!

Thank you Adam Fraizer of Artistic Imaging for the pictures!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love Is In The Air – WPPI 2011 Photo Shoot.

Posted by layersoflovely11 in Uncategorized and tagged with , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

In February we had the pleasure of working with our friend Laura Ivanova again this year for a WPPI photo shoot. We knew we wanted to get a little more involved with the shoot this year so we asked our friends at Scheme Events if they would like to coordinate something wonderful for us. They completely blew us away with the “Love Is In The Air” theme and all of the great details that they coordinated. There was even a story line of a groom coming home from war to find his bride greeting him with a surprise wedding.

The red white and blue color story read amazingly well at the Sky Combat Ace venue. We wanted to add a little variation and modernize the traditional colors so we brought in some magentas, ivories as well as navy and light blue. Blooms such as peonies, ranunculus, anemones, muscari, and beautiful lush vendela roses created the bridal and bridesmaids bouquets.

 

For the bridal parties table we used a grouping of small vases and filled them with florals such as almond branch, ranunculus, muscari (grape hyacinth) as well as some other blooms and fillers. Each little vase was dainty and delicate but when they were all arranged together they created a full piece filled with texture and depth.

You can view more from the shoot here, and here.

Megan & Aaron at Loews Lake Las Vegas June 2011

Posted by layersoflovely11 in Uncategorized and tagged with , , , , , , , ,

We had the pleasure of working with some of our favorite wedding planners, Plush Weddings and Events, on Megan and Aaron’s lovely June wedding. Their intimate ceremony held at the Andalusian Courtyard of the Loews Lake Las Vegas was accented with oranges and yellows that fit in perfectly with the desert setting. We used hardy blooms such as mokara and cymbidium orchids, and callas to with stand the heat and give a sleek modern look.

Gemma & Christian at Loews Lake Las Vegas

Posted by layersoflovely11 in Uncategorized and tagged with , , , , , ,

We met with Gemma in early January and hit it off right away. We chatted about lush peonies beautiful anemones, and other spring time floral to fit into her May wedding at Loews Lake Las Vegas. Gemma did an amazing job making her teal and fuchsia pink wedding flow flawlessly in the venue.

Gemma’s bouquet consisted of white and pink peonies that we accented with some pink ranunculus and green viburnum. Accenting the bouquet with teal satin ribbon helped tie her bouquet into the rest of the decor. The bridesmaids carried casual bouquets of open ivory roses. 

We used two different types of centerpieces for the reception. The first was a large arrangement of different shades of pink hydrangea and accents of other blooms such as peonies, sweet pea, and hyacinth. Large candles surrounded the arrangement to bring in some soft romantic candle light.

The second centerpiece option was a grouping of smaller vases all containing a single type of bloom. We used anemones, hydrangea, hyacinth, and peonies all in bight shades of pink than accented them with large pillar candles. It was important to Gemma that the centerpieces didn’t look fussy and over thought and these did just that. 

Thank you Artistic Imaging for capturing all of the details for us.
