Cafe Favorites!

I think many of you know by now that I truly love what I do.  I love being surrounded by beautiful flowers and I always keep fresh flowers in my home.  They really make me smile and I hope they do the same for you.  Today I am posting some of my favorite designs taken by Eleise Theuer.  Eleise is an amazing photographer and her work is simply breathtaking.  I am always so excited to see the photos after working with her.  Please visit her site and let me warn you, you can truly stay there for hours going through her beautiful work.  Thanks Eleise for always making my designs come to life on the pages.  Enjoy everyone!

For the bride that wants to "step out of the box" a little, I mixed different shades of red with roses, callas, rananculas and peonies accented with bupleurum.  It was Eleise's idea to put the bouquet in the "holiday cone container".  I'm telling you guys she's amazing!!

A sweet bouquet of pink parrot tulips and pink blushing bride.

For those who love yellow....callas, ranunculas and golden aster.

Perfect size for a mom to carry.......black magic roses and hypericum berries.

A white bouquet bursting with hydrangea, peonies and freesia.  The handle is wrapped with tiffany blue ribbon.

Also the perfect size for mom to carry.....a small bouquet of peonies and I added a little "bling" to the handle.

Peonies are my favorites!!!!!!!!!!

This bouquet was featured in the Spring/Summer 2007 edition of Brides Washington magazine and on their website.  Roses, star of bethlehem and berzillia berries make up this elegant bouquet.

A little something pink.....peonies, ranunculas, roses and cock's comb.

For a tropical vibe I mixed green cymbidium orchids, gloriosa lilies and anthurium.

A centerpiece mix of hydrangea, kermit mums, chocolate cymbidium orchids and scabiosa pods.

Vases wrapped with dupioni silk and filled with a fiery arrangement of zinnias and ornamental peppers.

I loved the blue and chocolate tin containers so I removed the cocoa and added the roses.  A charming look at a reception.

   

I "heart" the fern curls!!!!!!
