Mitchell Park Conservatory (the Domes) Milwaukee, WI

This weekend was Ben and Brittany's wedding up in Milwaukee at the Mitchell Park Conservatory. I had been looking forward to doing their wedding since I booked with them. Milwaukee is such a cool city! We had a really great time.
Since their ceremony took place in one of the domes they didn't need any additional decor since they were surrounded by gorgeous landscapes of flowers, bushes and trees. We did however bring lots of flowers in various varieties and color for the reception. It is such a unique venue to host a wedding and an interesting place to visit! Congratulations Ben and Brittany!!

The Women's Club of Evanston

Christine and Adam had a beautiful vintage themed wedding with so many details incoroporated within their ceremony and reception. It was a pleasure working Christine in making her vision for the decor come to life within the church and the Women's Club of Evanston hall. Alot of garden roses, hydrangeas and orchids were used throughout as well as a variety of fillers including dusty miller, meidenheir and queen anne's lace, all were perfect for creating a muted color palette for the bouquets and other floral arrangements.





































NIU Campus Naperville




Amanda and Jeff married in Elmhurst at Wilder Park and had their reception at the NIU campus in Naperville. When I first met with Amanda to discuss wedding flowers she had a picture of a centerpiece she envisioned for her reception decor. The vase was covered in ti leaves and the arrangement had a very earthy feel. I made something similar in Amanda's color scheme and added feather accents which were also used in the bouquets. They turned out great and it made for a unique presentation.
















The Patrick Haley Mansion

Johnna and John married at the gorgeous Patrick Haley Mansion in Joliet. I've always heard what pretty venue it is and have always wanted to set up flowers there and happy to have finally had a chance too! The grounds, the house and reception room are exquisite! Here are some pictures from their wedding day..
