Mary + Dan at Vineland Estates Winery

Posted by Jennifer on July 26 2010

It's been a while since we've been at Vineland Estates Winery, but some things will never change ... we still looove intimate Niagara winery weddings!!

Vineland Estates is still one of the most beautiful intimate winery wedding venues in Niagara and it always feels like coming home when we get to work there. It's great to see Diane and Jared and the crew ... we've got a great history of designing/hosting the most beautiful weddings together!

Mary + Dan were married in the lovely old stone Carriage House overlooking the vineyard with the Niagara Escarpment in the distance ... breathtakingly beautiful! After the ceremony, their guests were invited on a wine tour and the Carriage House was seamlessly flipped into the reception space ... a beautiful tablescape seating 17 guests in the centre of the room!

Mary's colour palette was a Forest meets Charm mash-up ... the main focus was white and ivory with just a little splash of blush for colour! We used white mini callas, orchids, freesia, sahara roses, blackberries, blushing bride, dianthus and event some antique green hydrangeas and clematis vine from our studio organic cutting garden!

Cheers and best wishes to Mary + Dan ... it was a pleasure to be part of your special day!

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

Have I said how much we love this place? I'll let the pictures do the talking now ...







The long harvest or mission-style tablescape is one of our favourite things to do in the Carriage House ... there's something magical about the intimacy and ambiance that it brings to the space.





Between the ceremony and reception setup, we had a little time to sit down in the Vineland Estates Winery Restaurant and enjoy THE most decadent and tasty dessert and cappuccino I've had in a long while ... it's been a busy season!

I leave you with this one mouth-watering picture ... mmmmm!

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!


The girls looked amazing in their pewter dresses and cobalt blue shoes!





The centrepieces sat perfectly on the pewter runners ... yellow looks so good in The Windows Room at Inn on the Twenty!




Details, details ... it's all about the details!



Ceremony Location: Cave Spring Vineyard Retreat
Wedding Venue: The Inn on the Twenty
Hair and Makeup: Allure Hair + Makeup
Wedding Flowers: Vintage Design Co.

Shannon + Kirk: Niagara on the Lake Wedding at Pillar and Post

Posted by Jennifer on May 31 2010

Shannon + Kirk tied the knot this past weekend and celebrated in style at the lovely Pillar and Post (one of the Vintage Hotels) in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario! It was a perfect May Saturday afternoon to get married in Niagara's wine country.

Bliss was the colour palette for the day ... featuring muted tones of antique green, ivory, warm blush and light peach. To achieve this 'modern vintage' look, we chose flowers that have a particular rustic, heritage appeal ... garden and standard roses, dahlias, antique green hydrangea and peonies! We piled on the old-world charm by incorporating fern fronds, heuchera and even some oregano sprigs from our organic cutting gardens!

Best wishes to Shannon + Kirk ... we loved being a part of your wedding day!

Shannon's bridal bouquet ... soft and romantic yet full of interest and texture!



This close-up of Shannon's bridal bouquet gives you a really clear visual of the Bliss colour palette.


We're crazy about the details ... we tied in this funky custom-made ceramic 'button' detail to Shannon's bouquet stem. Something borrowed, something blue ...


Shannon and Kirk's intimate wedding ceremony took place outside in the Rose Garden at the Pillar and Post ... a gorgeous, if not downright hot, afternoon to get married!





The cutest flowers girls ever ...

Caitlin + Jon: Niagara on the Lake Wedding at Riverbend Inn and Vineyard

Posted by Jennifer on August 31 2009

Congrats and best wishes to Caitlin + Jon who celebrated their outdoor wedding in Niagara at the always lovely Riverbend Inn and Vineyard … a true gem among Niagara wedding reception venues!

We absolutely love, love, love Niagara on the Lake weddings … especially this time of year!

Caitlin’s colours were cream, ivory and a variety of shades of fresh green ... a lot like our 'Forest' colour palette!

We designed this wedding using white/green Peegee and Annabelle hydrangeas (from our organic cutting garden!), garden roses, dahlias, poppy pods, chamomile, hypericum berries, hanging amaranthus and fresh hops.

Thanks for letting us share in your big day!

The grand entrance to the Riverbend Inn …


The bride’s and bridesmaid’s bouquets …



The Riverbend has this great gazebo overlooking the vineyard … the perfect spot for an outdoor late summer vineyard wedding in Niagara!


The ‘alter’ was flanked with these two four foot tall arrangements!



Caitlin and the girls made their entrance across the lawn ... the Coach House is in the background.



How cute are these two .. seriously?


The tables were fashioned into a long ‘picnic’ style setup which allowed us to design ‘tablescapes’ which included these long arrangements in gorgeous wooden trugs! Caitlin made her table runners out of this amazing Amy Butler fabric!





We incorporated lots of glass canning jars with pillar candles and little posy arrangements to add to the modern vintage feel!
