Butterfield Country Club

Kendra and Ryan's wedding was yesterday at Butterfield Country Club in Oakbrook, their ceremony took place at St. James the Appostle in Glen Ellyn. Ryan has been a friend of my brother's since high school so it was really special that I was able to be part of their big day. Birch was a big accent to the decor throughout the reception. I used birch branches with hanging votives on half of the guest tables while the other half contained short, full floral arrangements set in birch containers that I burnt a heart with their initials in it.. great idea by Kendra! I took birch logs and drilled out holes which then I sunk votive candles in for the head table. The cake was also set up on a slice of a tree stump..it looked awesome!

Lisa and Scott

Saturday, Lisa and Scott wed at the Wheaton Bible Church and their reception was held at Holiday Inn in Carol Stream. Their wedding colors were chocolate brown with accents of a variety of pinks. They had such perfect weather for a fall wedding

Danada House

It's been 2 years since I did wedding flowers over at Danada House in Wheaton. I was shocked to see all the improvements! It's such a beautiful venue ecspecially this time of the year. The colors for Mallory and Alex's wedding were pumpkin orange and plum purple. Alex gave me fishing lures to add to his and the groomsmen boutonierres, it's always fun when the couple adds their personal touches in the details for their big day.

Ana Marie and Augie married at Venuti's in Addison. Their color palette was a wide range of fall colors of chocolate brown, bronze, copper, red and oranges. Ana Marie put alot of work into the details of her wedding and it was nice to see it all come together. The big bridal party was dressed in brown, guys too in their brown tuxes! it looked great and the orange flowers looked beautiful against the brown. Ana Marie was so great to work with, I wish I had a picture of her in her dress, she looked so beautiful!

Another small order I had over the weekend was Sijournai and Gregory's wedding. Another gorgeous fall wedding in golds, oranges, red and ivory. I used gold sparkle gyp accented throughtout the bouquets and corsages, it was a nice touch mixed in with flowers.
