August 28: A Sneak Peak at the Flowers

As you might have guessed, I can’t keep up! I haven’t even been taking photos of the flowers before they leave the shop. To be honest, the shop is so jam packed there isn’t anywhere to take a decent picture!

The reason I can’t keep up is because there have been SO MANY great weddings in the last few weeks. Last week we worked on three beautiful, creative, lovely weddings.

Friday I delivered flowers to Black Ankle Vineyard for Amanda and Kevan’s wedding. It was a warm, sunny Friday-perfect for a wedding at a gorgeous vineyard . The bride’s bouquet was filled with dark red dahlias, red coxcomb and little red gomphrenas. There was also white lisianthus and sweet smelling tuberose. The majority of the bouquet was made up of herbs and scented greens-eucalyptus, mountain mint and lemon basil.

The girls carried vibrant yellow, orange and red bouquets full of zinnias, dahlias, coxcomb, asclepias, sedum and gomprhena.

Karen and Brad’s wedding on Saturday’s wedding at the Vandiver Inn in Havre de Grace was awesome! The couple, the colors the flowers-I loved all of it!

The bouquets were filled with orange dahlias, zinnias, asclepias and coxcomb, yellow zinnias and asclepias, white gomphrena and tuberose and loads of greens-succulents, sedum and weigela.

IMG_1371 The other half of the centerpieces were these very cool submerged hydrangea.

And then…there were the boutonnieres. They were made with…hairy balls or monkey balls or hairy balloons…whatever you want to call them…they were awesome!

IMG_1364 Unfortunately, Morgan’s wedding on Sunday was like the 3rd born child that the parents never take pictures of. It doesn’t mean I loved this wedding any less-I just didn’t take many pictures!

Here’s one of the chuppah made by the groom’s mom and decorated and planted by LoCoFlo. It looked great in the Cloisters garden!

  2. A corporate massage іs a little bit different from thе others.
    It is important tο learn the mіgгaіne pressurе point or
    pоints thаt bring relief. The program will enable one
    tacklе сhallengеs such as thе
    patient's skepticism or bad attitudes towards given routine.

    This not only gives an overall sense of relaxation but also works at enhancing the blood circulation, lessening the time needed for muscles to recover during injuries, stretching of tendons, stimulation of the skin and lowers blood pressure thereby giving the client an improves sense of health inside out. Jupiter - avarice venus - lust mars - anger saturn - pride moon - jealousy mercury - sloth sun - covetousness. Many times the orgasms reached when prostate massage is involved are highly intense. An orthopedic pillow or bolster can be used to correct body positioning??? I see the huge guys that need massage because their muscles are so hyper-tonic (chronically contracted), and at the opposite extreme, women over 40 that never worked out habitually throughout life and so their large back muscles and core muscles are weak, which causes low back or thoracic pain.

  3. I just find it really inexcusable that the tenured Macroeconomist, anywhere,
    much less at MIT can get both Japan and the Great Depression so wrong payday loans uk if she desires to share the restroom with transgendered people then she needs to be responsible when a pervert uses the transgender card
    to become in the ladies room bathroom to the wrong purpose.
