Krista + Scott: Niagara Winery Wedding at Inn on the Twenty
Posted June 28 2010
We fell in love with the dramatic romance of red wedding flowers all over again this past weekend! We like to call it ... Passion.
Krista + Scott enlisted us to design their wedding flowers in shades of deep red, burgundy and raspberry. It was an intimate affair (just 50 or 60 guests), but Krista wanted us to make a statement with tall and distinct pieces. The reception was held in the Vintner's Cellar at Inn on the Twenty ... we love it when we can work with an interesting space! If you ever get the chance, be sure to take in the 19th century brick cistern turned wine cellar that is adjacent the Vintner's Cellar ... kinda creepy/cool.
To achieve the drama Krista + Scott required, we used some equally dramatic flowers ... including mokara and cymbidium orchids, nerine lilies, protea, anthurium and aralia leaves and some really amazing red hydrangea blooms!
It was wonderful to be a part of Krista + Scott's celebration … cheers and best wishes to you!
Setting the stage ... here's an idea of the colour / texture palette we were working with ... can't get enough of those gorgeous garden roses!
The bride’s bouquet … definitely one of our favourites so far this year!
We created a couple of these giant arrangements for the wedding ceremony at the Vineyard Retreat and then transferred them on to a couple of wine barrels at the Vintner's Cellar ... they looked unbelievably amazing in the room!
We were excited to debut our new custom-made wrought iron 'trees' for Krista + Scott's centerpieces ... talk about dramatic! For this incarnation of the 'trees', the branches dripped with panicles of red Mokara Orchids and candlelight.
Probably the most dramatic feature of the day were these two massive curly willow trees we designed for the lobby and bar areas of the cellar. Each of the 'trees' was over 6 feet tall and 3 - 4 feet across and dripped with orchids and glass lanterns to compliment the table centerpieces.

The flower arrangements, unique centerpieces and floor arrangements as well as the personal bouquets were outstanding! I too fell in love with the passion of red. Thank you for making my daughters’ and Scotts’ wedding day even more special and unique.

My husband and I were a part of Krista and Scott’s special day and we were so impressed with how beautiful and exotic all the arrangements were. The colour combinations were perfect and the height of each centrepiece was so dramatic and lovely. Wonderful job!
