An Ethereal Autumn Wedding

December 18, 2018 Shyla Yoder

Dearest Kristen…. you are such a lovely soul. Light shines out of your eyes just like the ethereal beauty of your wedding. // I loved working with Kristen for her wedding florals. She was incredibly open minded and took a simple and gracious stance to planning her wedding. We incorporated lovely Spring tones into her autumn palette. Apricot, salmon, lemon and cream alongside vibrant ruby & bronze. It was one of my favorite takes on Autumn this year. I think, this perhaps, is a palette close to my heart; one which compliments my skin tone // Warm Autumn // (a mixture of spring and autumn).
Some of Kristen’s statement flowers included lisianthus, parrot tulips, dahlias from my garden, ranunculus & garden roses aside copper beech, soft sage and jasmine vine. I loved the ombre affect of the ranunculus, a work of art you can never control and the delicateness of the jasmine. //
Dak & Kristen, may your love be forever strong and hearts always find joy giving.

A Nostalgic Old-World Glam Wedding

December 3, 2018 Shyla Yoder

This wedding had all of the Old-World charm and elegance a wedding could have. I loved every minute of working with this beautiful bride. It was a family affair the whole way and they made me feel so taken care! Francesca was a very relaxed, low-maintenance bride who requested muted tones with a funky flair. We added King Protea from Africa, Dahlia Contraste from my garden and ferns to create this look in her bouquet and sweetheart table and little mini Blushing Bride Protea for each boutonniere. The maids held soft-toned bouquets of lush dahlia, Cafe Au Lait & Breakout to name a few and Cafe Latte (dusty mauve) roses to finish off the old world feeling. Stonewall Resort provided the grandest cathedral backdrop for the ceremony captured along with their superb service where the dinner was served amidst elevated floral centerpieces. It was all captured by the amazingly talented Chelsea Hellen whose photography adds nostalgia that takes you back 50 years. I hope you’ll enjoy this walk of love through a September wedding.

Romantic Autumn Wedding

November 15, 2018 Shyla Yoder

Spenser & Kirsten were the sweetest couple! I fell in love with her tender, romantic style that seemed to melt right into her beautiful skin along with her soft-spoken voice. We met early on over coffee to discuss her style. She wanted lush, deep but feminine colors for her wedding… handfuls of flowers that seemed to creep into the scenery for herself, and wild, more subtle pastels for her girls. She chose one of my favorite upcoming trends, mixing two textures of ribbon in her bouquet - hand-dyed silk and crushed velvet in blush and burgundy. We custom ordered them to match her theme from my favorite ribbon maker - Paperie & Silk. In the flush of Autumn, I was able to fill her bouquets with dinner-plate dahlias from my garden (including the celebrity creamy colored one - Cafe Au Lait), lots of antique garden roses and white snowberries to make it unique! When it came to her ceremony arch, we couldn’t do anything but lavish to encapsulate her style! Romance seeped out of the lushness of flowers that hung above their heads while they said their vows. Kuirsta & Seth captured the beauty and love exquisitely within the stunning Pete Dye Golf Club where they danced the night away under a floral chandelier.
