octoberfest

::october, 2009
In October, I had the pleasure of working with the wonderful bride Amanda– who I first met at the Perfect Wedding Guide Show in August. Her colors were shades of coral and fall pinks and yellows and oranges. She wanted to feature calla lilies in her bouquet, with corally-red dahlia and fresh yellow roses:

The doors to the church were decorated with rustic wooden branch wreathes decorated with fresh fall flowers. The bride wanted the wedding to feel simple, casual, and rustic:

Her pew markers were chocolate double-faced satin ribbons with single flower accents:

And the altar flowers were simple groupings of fresh fall flowers on a swagged chocolate brown silk with tall pillar candles that were wrapped in ivy:

The table centerpieces were simple fall arrangements of assorted in-season blooms of bright colors:

Later that day, the centerpieces were placed on the tables outdoors:
