Kimberly + Dean: Niagara on the Lake Wedding in Yellow!

Posted by Jennifer on August 09 2010

Kimberly + Dean's bright and sunny Niagara on the Lake wedding day featured fab yellow florals in our Glow colour palette ... a perfect match for Kimberly's cheery personality!

It was a classic romantic affair ... the wedding ceremony was held in the Atrium and the evening dinner reception followed in the Imperial Ballroom ... all on-site at Queen's Landing in lovely Niagara on the Lake, Ontario!

Cheers to love!

Christine + David: Winery Wedding at Chateau des Charmes in Niagara on the Lake

Posted by Jennifer on August 02 2010

Christine + David's yummy yellow and grey themed wedding took place under the tent at Chateau des Charmes Winery in Niagara on the Lake this holiday long weekend! What a beautiful day it was to celebrate Niagara nuptials ... love was in the air and not humidity!!

The colour palette of the flowers was yellow with hits of lime green and the punch was provided by the pewtery grey linens and black chair covers ... mod glamour with a rustic touch!

Our congratulations to Christine + David … thanks for choosing us to be a part of making your Niagara wedding celebration memorable!

These Gardenias in Christine's bouquet smelled amazing! They're so dainty and delicate ...

Melissa + Matt's Niagara Winery Wedding at Inn on the Twenty

Posted by Jennifer on July 19 2010

Melissa + Matt's Niagara nuptials took place among the beautiful vineyards of the Beamsville Bench in the Cave Spring Vineyard Retreat ... a thunderstorm threatened to soak the guests in the Vineyard right at ceremony time, so it was quickly moved indoors!

The always lovely 'Glow' was the colour palette du jour! For Melissa + Matt's flowers, we focused particularly on shades of yellow and ivory that were accented with grey and cobalt blue in the girl's dresses, shoes and accessories.

We used words like round, tidy, fresh, vintage, modern, simple to describe the look and feel we were aiming for. To achieve Melissa's look, we incorporated hydrangeas, gerberas, garden roses, spray roses, looped curly willow and funky craspedia blooms into the bouquets and centerpieces.

Congratulations again Melissa + Matt ... it was a pleasure to design the flowers for your beautiful wedding!

This closeup of the bride's bouquet gives you a good idea of the colour palette we were working with ... soft and mellow yellows, ivory and champagne!

The soft yellow bride's and bridesmaids bouquets ...yummy garden roses and the yellow 'pokey' balls are called craspedia ... I know you wanted to know!

The ceremony was quickly moved into the Vineyard Retreat due to the impending clouds of doom that quickly descended on the vineyard about 20 minutes before the ceremony!

This young lady took her job as flower girl very seriously ... she had the right idea with the fan ... it was stinkin' hot!

Megan + Tim: Niagara Winery Wedding at Inn on the Twenty

Posted by Jennifer on May 24 2010

We absolutely love, love, love Niagara winery weddings … and you can't go wrong celebrating your wedding at Inn on the Twenty on Main St. in Jordan Village!

Megan and Tim were married on Saturday afternoon just down the street at St. John's Anglican Church ... a gorgeous and stately 160 year old stone church with as much history as our country itself!

The colour palette for the day was our cheerful ‘Glow’ featuring shades of yellow, white and punctuated with shots of fresh green. We used garden roses, orchids and camomile to achieve the look!

Best wishes to Megan and Tim as they begin their married life together … thanks for letting us be part of your day!

Vintage Hotels Wedding Show 2010 Recap

Posted by Jennifer on February 22 2010

This past weekend we participated in the Vintage Hotels Wedding Show once again ... it's the only show we're doing this year and it was a lot of fun!

We design a lot of Niagara on the Lake weddings at the Vintage Hotels each season ... we love working with Stephanie, Jennifer, Savannah, Peggy, Karen and all the amazing staff at Queen's Landing, Pillar and Post and Prince of Wales Hotels! Aside from meeting new clients at the show, an important part of the day for us is connecting with the many talented Niagara wedding professionals that gather annually at this show. We're so proud to be associated with such a talented pool of wedding vendors!

This year, our booth featured our 'Glow' colour palette under our canopy in the Grand Georgian Ballroom at Queen's Landing. Glow is a sunny and mellow yellow, lemon and vanilla palette that our brides are loving!

Here's our booth ... one of the many incarnations of our Canopy / Mandap / Chuppah! We constructed our canopy with birch logs and fabric and then covered it with a thatched roof of wispy curly willow and ruscus foliage. Thanks to Simply Beautiful Décor for the linen covering our table!

We did samples of three different bride's bouquets in the 'Glow' palette ... I love the custom button detailing on these! Everybody wondered what the little yellow 'ball' flowers were ... they're mimosa!
