Three Brides - Three Places

With the sore throat gone, Saturday proved to be quite a busy day for bloom floral design. Three bride meetings meant lots of driving around town. It was a gorgeous and productive day.



Bride #1 is Brittany. She will be married on May 2nd at The Ridges Resort (photo above) in Young Harris, GA. We did most of her planning via email and met for the first time this weekend to confirm all the details (at my favorite breakfast place - SIMB). She is a sweet and excited bride and her mother is sweet and excited too! Her color palette is whites, greens and purples with her bouquet consisting of green cymbidium orchids, white peonies and sweet pea with a touch of maidenhair fern. She had extra french lace from her gown alteration so we will use it to wrap the bouquets.



Next is was on to Bride #2 - Shannon. She will tie the knot at The Monteluce Winery (photo above) in Dahlonega on October 3rd. We did most of her planning via email as well, but met at a Starbucks to finalize details and talk more about different options for centerpieces, etc. She lives in Cartersville so we met halfway between there and Decatur. This cool new event site is "reminiscent of an old Tuscan villa" and I'm excited to work this new space.

Bride #3 is Mere (short for Meredith). We started off with a generic email conversation and really got down to business at Mo's & Jo's in Va-High picking flowers in her color scheme of bold blues, purples and greens. She'll be married at our neighborhood favorite The Solarium (photo above) in late September. She is a structural engineer and loved the The Solarium for its simplistic design and fascinating interior ceiling trusses.

The best part about all this is that each job/bride is different. Even if I've worked the space before, each bride has her own thing going on so it is always new and interesting!
