Captiva Island respite, part 2

Here's a few more reasons...

Hibiscus growing everywhere.


This is the traffic that goes by.




Soothing sounds.

The plant life here is phenomonal. Natal Plum.

It is so very hot, yet everything just thrives in the heat. Areca Palm.

Love the fern growing out of the palm tree here. Inspiration abounds.

Beautiful foliage.

Cut flowers growing wild. Bird of paradise.

I might not come back!!!

Laura and Jack

Laura and Jack tied the knot at the The Solarium in Oakhurst on Saturday. It was a second marriage for both of them and they had a lovely ceremony where they made vows to their children (they have 5 between them). Laura carried a simple pageant-style bouquet of white callas. She elected to make all of her centerpieces herself so on Thursday I provided her with 20 glass vases and 140 stems of multi-colored mini callas. She, and her family, did a great job putting them together! Here are a few photos I took but will definitely post the professional shots soon.

Buffet piece - white calla lilies, white dendrobium orchids, asparagus fern, ti leaves, monstera leaves.

Small buffet piece - pink larkspur, white calla lilies, white dendrobium orchids, lavender parrot tulips and jasmine vine.

Corsages and wristlets.
