Sarah + Sumit at The Good Earth Food and Wine Co.

Posted by Jennifer on August 30 2010

Sarah + Sumit celebrated their nuptials outdoors in Niagara's wine country at The Good Earth Food and Wine Co. in Lincoln. If you're a regular reader of the blog, you already know how much we love The Good Earth ... a little slice of heaven on earth!

Sumit's background is Indian and the blending of his and Sarah's cultures is such a beautiful love story. It was an intimate affair that was very big on gorgeous, rich and saturated colour!

Feast your eyes on this colour palette ... it's our 'Passion' with an Indian spin ... plus some gold and copper thrown in for kicks! A perfect late summer palette that's also reflective of Sumit's family heritage.

We wish blessings on Sarah + Sumit as they begin their marriage journey!

The colour palette ... rich reds, deep burgundies, passionate pinks ... lovin' it!

Tara + Shawn say 'I Do' at Vineland Estates Winery

Posted by Jennifer on August 16 2010

Was that summer that just flew by? It's hard to believe it's already September in just a couple of weeks ... already beginning to look, feel and smell a bit like fall. Maybe we'll just call it 'late summer' for now ... no need to rush things!!!

Late summer happens to be my favourite time of year ... mostly because of all the saturated tones and rich, deep colours that come out! Tara + Shawn's Niagara winery wedding at Vineland Estates Winery is a great example of what I love about late summer.

Peach dahlias, majolica spray roses, pink cymbidium and red mokara orchids, pink garden roses, various hydrangeas (peegee, antique green, white), celosia ... all of these goregous blooms went into Tara + Shawn's florals. The colour palette could be described as watermelon with warm tones of burgundy, blush, salmon and champagne. Very relaxed and 'of the earth'. We even picked lots of the foliage from our own cutting gardens here at the studio ... peegee hydrangeas, antique green hydrangea, mint, fern fronds, clematis vine and more.

Our best wishes to Tara + Shawn ... and cheers to late summer weddings in Niagara's wine country!

The Vineland Estates Winery Carriage House at Vineland Estates Winery is an amazing stone room with a bank of windows across the east wall facing out over the vineyards with the Niagara Escarpment in the background ... one of our most favourite places to celebrate a Niagara wedding!

Tara + Shawn's wedding ceremony took place outside on the north deck ... we created twin oversized arrangements to flank the ceremony area. We're loving our giant earthy chocolate vessels for these florals!

Stephanie + Danny's Vineyard Wedding

Posted by Jennifer on August 09 2010

Another first for us ... in ten years of designing flowers for weddings, we've never done one on a Monday ... until today!!

Stephanie + Danny's Jewish wedding ceremony was supposed to take place under the custom-made birch log chuppah we created for them ... but just 10 minutes before the ceremony, the skies opened up and the rain fell. Ever the optimists, Stephanie + Danny simply moved the ceremony indoors to the Vineyard Retreat at Cave Springs.

Suffice it to say, we were a little sad for our bride and groom ... that they weren't able to be wed in the vineyard under the chuppah ... but love knows no boundaries and come rain or come shine, Stephanie + Danny's love certainly weathered this little hurdle. :)

Cheers guys! We wish the newly weds blessings in their marriage.

Bliss was the colour palette for this smashing brides' bouquet ... how lovely!

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!

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!

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!
