Dianna's Bouquet

My oldest sister got married! Its been a long time coming and everyone in the family was gratefully happy that after all of these years they were finally going to seal the deal! 

Her wedding took place at our Aunt and Uncles Lake House, for right now I am just going to post a few pictures of the bouquets etc, but later you will see more about this amazing wedding! 

The wedding themed was Teal, and Black, no real theme just the right colors! 

We had a bridal shower for her, and all of our friends and family brought her a brooch to put into her bouquet. I then took the brooches home and put it together for her! I cant tell you how honored I was to be able to do this for my sister! 

You see that feathery looking thing? That was a brooch that was made for her by a friend out of Monster Tabs and Bud Light beer tabs. It was the ultimate redneck brooch out there, and was perfect for my sister and this wedding! 

 

Her and her Husband, and yes those hands belong to me ;)

Here is a rare thing, me with one of my brides, well she is my sister and I was in the wedding. Isnt she just stunning? And the Lake was the perfect color of blue. It was such a pretty wedding, and I hope to share more with you later! 

Jennifer's Bouquet Revisited

Im sure everyone loves seeing all of these pretty bouquets, so when i am given then chance to i like to revisit them after their wedding. Jennifer is a wedding planner out of Northern Virginia. She is pretty fantastic, and threw one of the coolest weddings I think I have seen in a while! 

I did her bouquet, that was a vintage glamor inspired bouquet! I had so much fun working with this stunning lady, and i am so happy that she lets me stalk her over on Facebook!

Jennifer's Bouquet

 I thought i would share with you a brooch bouquet I did recently for a client. She asked if we could do, white, black, silver and gold toned brooches in her bouquet. I knew i could create a beautiful masterpiece for her!

In our emailing back in forth she told me, "not to much black, I need to remember this is a wedding not a funeral"

So the entire time I was working on this gorgeous bouquet that was in the back of my head! This isn't a funeral Jen don't put more black in there than what she is asking! 

 Then she threw the curve ball at me when she asked me to wrap the handle in black ;) 

I guess you could say that her handle is the bit of rebellion she was looking for in her bouquet!

What is awesome about this bouquet is the things she sent to me to add into it! See that gold locket down there? Along with that black fan, cameo, and floral cameo. There is a couple of necklace charms thrown in there as well that are all contributions from her family members! 

Amazingly enough I found out afterwards that Ms. Jennifer is a wedding planner! She runs a business called Elegantly Chic Events in Falls Church, VA. If you need a wedding planner, you need to look this lady up! She is pretty fantastic! Its ironic her company is called elegantly chic, because thats how i feel about her amazing bouquet!

One day if our paths cross in person, I know i could be friends with this lady! We are way too much alike in our design style and i am so happy she was so very pleased with this bouquet!

We focused on her school colors with the purples and golds, and her sorority mascot was elephants! 

This is a great lady and I am glad to have met her! 

 

I love that she prayed with her bouquet, makes me feel very special! So many of the trinkets in her bouquet were from family members!

Ashtons Bouquet Revisted!

So Mrs. Ashton is my friend, and I had helped with her bouquet from her wedding... 

As the photographer puts up pictures I have been stealing them. 

So Here is Ashton's Bouquet Revisted 

Ashton's Vintage Brooch Bouquet

My dear friend Ashton got married this weekend, and I had been helping her with her bouquet, but i didn't want to take it over. I am a bit of a control freak. Finally Ashton came over to my house last week with her bouquet and asked me to just make it for her.  

Congratulations to Ashton and Ben, check out her amazing bouquet with brooches from her family :)

Johana's Bouquet

This is a bouquet I made for Johana, this was a rush order, and the only things the bride wanted were "old brooches" she did not want any newer brooches in there. This was an easy task for me, just because i have been collecting brooches for such a long time. I think i did a pretty good job. Her theme is Marie Antoinette and Peacock, I used several cameos and tried to stay with a blue, and purple pallet.

 

Janina's Bouquet

 Hello Everyone! Before I go on Vacation, I wanted to give you a preview of another bouquet. This one belongs to someone local named Janina. Most of this bouquet is made up of her own brooches. We used Elephants throughout the bouquet, because its her sorority's mascot. I really had a good time designing this one, it was a little different from some of the one's I have done in the past.
