Kristin + Ryan at Queen's Landing in Niagara-on-the-Lake
Posted by Jennifer on August 16 2010
We absolutely love working in Niagara on the Lake ... this little town is so full of interest and charm that it naturally enhances anything we do here!
This weekend, for Kristin + Ryan's wedding, we were excited again to work at two of our favourite venues ... Queen's Landing and St. Mark's Anglican Church. Two amazing venues for an equally amazing couple!!
We were working some fantastic late summer blooms to pull off a sophisticated, yet romantic and classic feel. The white chair covers with stem green bows and matching stationery were a perfect backdrop for the flowers.
Kristin + Ryan are two beautiful, genuine souls ... truly meant for each other and it was a pleasure to be a part of their wedding celebration! Best wishes to you!!

The coordinating bridesmaid's bouquets ...
We simply adore St. Mark's Church ... this beautiful old-stone church dates back over 200 years ... a lot of history here. Not just a history of religion or love ... but of the founding of Canada!
We hope Ryan doesn't mind us posting this pic of him holding Kristin's bouquet ... he was busy assisting her into the car and walked off with her bouquet ... so cute!
We designed a mix of tall and short full-floral centerpieces for each of the guest tables in the Grand Georgian Ballroom ...

Our resident wedding stationery guy, Mark, created menus, place cards and seating plan for Kristin + Ryan ...
We're not sure who provided this scrumptious cupcake tree ... unfortunately (for us) we didn't get a sample ... but it sure looked amazing!
Robin + Dennis: A 'Charmed' Niagara-on-the-Lake Wedding
Posted by Jennifer on July 05 2010
So we're officially in those warm, heady days of summer and holiday weekends make for super wedding celebrations ... especially in Niagara-on-the-Lake!
Robin + Dennis tied the knot this past weekend ... outdoors overlooking the Niagara River from the deck of the Queenston Heights Restaurant in Queenston. A hop and a skip down the Niagara Parkway brought their guests to quaint Niagara-on-the-Lake and the Imperial Ballroom at Queen's Landing Hotel, where they celebrated and dined in utmost style!
The bride's 'Charmed' palette was a perfectly pretty combination of blush pink, ivory and white ... classic beauty never goes out of style.
Cheers to summer weddings!
Charm is one of those palettes that brides always seem to return to ... here's an idea of the colour / texture palette we were working with.
The bride and bridesmaid's bouquets ... with callas, roses, lisianthus and orchids.
In addition to being a unique wedding destination, Queenston Heights is also a memorial to The War of 1812 where we Canadians kicked the Americans back across the River ... for the first and last time! Don't worry, it's all good ... we're friends now.
The Imperial Ballroom at Queen's Landing always looks pretty in pink (and white) ... so these centerpieces were right at home!
Meaghan + John at Queen's Landing in Niagara-on-the-Lake
Posted by Jennifer on June 21 2010
Meaghan + John currently reside in Boston and made Niagara-on-the-Lake their destination wedding location this past weekend!
After tying the knot at St. Vincent de Paul on Queen's Parade in lovely downtown Niagara-on-the-Lake, Meaghan + John invited their guests to celebrate with them in the Grand Georgian Ballroom at Queen's Landing just around the corner! The two venues are so close, the bulk of the guests simply walked the one block in the shade of the beautiful overhead tree canopy!
For Meaghan + John's reception, we designed natural, elegant romantic tablescapes that were full and flowery. The room was loaded with peonies, viburnum, bells of Ireland, white and green hydrangeas, snapdragons, delphiniums and other green and white gardeny flowers.
The traditional round table setup was bypassed in favour of long mission-style tables, oversized mirrors and gorgeous green-on-green linens which tied everything together just perfectly!
Congratulations and best wishes to Meaghan + John ... it was so much fun to be part of your special day!

St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church played host to the couple's nuptials ... a very interesting 'starry night' painting on the domed cathedral ceiling above the altar.
The head table was loaded with candlelight and flowers in glass vessels of varying sizes and heights ...
For the wedding reception, we created 'tablescapes' using glass and mono-botanical florals giving a stately, clean and elegant feel to the room!

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 ...

Best Centerpieces of 2009 ... featuring 'Forest'
Posted by Jennifer on April 19 2010
Continuing along in our 'best of' series, this time we're going to feature some centerpieces we designed in our Forest palette for our 2009 brides!
Forest is a palette that not only conveys colour, but is elemental and full of texture as well. Forest incorporates fresh greens, woody bark and soft earth tones and evokes tactile sensations of natural ... fern, birch, mulch and moss.
Enjoy!
Caitlin + Jon celebrated their outdoor wedding in Niagara at the always lovely Riverbend Inn and Vineyard back in August of last year ...
Heather + Josh were married in an afternoon wedding ceremony in Niagara-on-the-Lake and afterward, their guests were invited for cocktails and an evening reception at one of our favourite Niagara-on-the-Lake wedding venues, the Grand Georgian Ballroom at Queen’s Landing.
Heather’s color palette was a bit of a cross between Glow and Forest … soft lemon and buttery yellow with accents of fresh green and chocolate.
Here are a few other examples of Forest centerpieces from last wedding season ...
