Real Weddings: Jayme and Merissa

I met Jayme and Merissa at the Cloisters Open House last February. They seemed excited about local flowers and about LoCoFlo’s style. A few months later we got together for coffee and discussed their ideas for flowers and decor. These ladies has wonderfully creative ideas that I was super excited to be a part of .

Jayme and Merissa were married at the Cloisters on a warm October afternoon. We used a plethora of orange and white dahlias for the bouquets. They matched perfectly with the wedding party’s dresses and Converse sneakers!

The centerpieces were some of my favorites of the year. Low, white footed bowls filled with orange and white dahlias, locally grown apples, millet, broom corn, hairy balls (that’s what they’re called!) scented geranium and nandina berries.

The wedding and reception was full of great details showcasing the couples creativeness and their love for each other.
