A Simply Gorgeous Wedding in July

This elegant wedding at Maison des Olivieres really reminded me how keeping things simple can often make the biggest statement of all! Mason jars, monochromatic arrangements, and a creative assortment of vintage vases and votives, truly created a sophisticated ambiance. Thank you to the beautiful bride and handsome groom, Katie and Adam, for sharing your special day with us! Oh, and we can't forget to thank the always-fabulous Elle Photography for capturing all the loving moments and gorgeous details AND Stephanie @ Ribbons and Rust, as usual, for having such fun vintage pieces for us to choose from!  Spreading floral love is always easier when you got a great team to work with. :)

Pretty Pastels in May

With this crazy heat wave that's been hitting Southern California, many of us are longing for a little relief from the sun. Well, I don't have the ability to make it Fall already, but hopefully sharing this gorgeous wedding from May will remind you of the beautiful, cool Spring season we had this year.

The bride, Breanna, was a pleasure to work with, and the phenomenal Maison Des Oliviers was the perfect backdrop.  We received this sweet thank you:
Dear Stacey,
Thank you so very much for the beautiful job you did on our flowers for Breana and Tom's wedding.
They were absolutely perfect!  You are a true artist.  You created every bouquet exactly as we had envisioned them.
We really enjoyed working with you and thank you again for your beautiful work.
Sincerely,
Diane & Bruce (parents)
Breana & Tom

Feeling blue??

While browsing through my pictures on my computer, I realized how many brides are using blue in their weddings.  These are all weddings we provided flowers for.  I love blue, it's one of my favorite colors!  Enjoy....

Beautiful Villa Wedding in May

The beautiful Villa~San Juan Capistrano is one (and I have a few) of Floral Occasions favorite venues, not to mention it is less than a mile from our home based studio (big plus!!).  I was overjoyed when I met Julie.  She was such a cool, laid back bride with super cool style and beautiful from the inside out.  I wasn't lucky enough to meet Tyler until the wedding.  From the second I met him he was so grateful for our work, complementing everything.  He wanted Julie to have everything her hearts desired.  Please watch the attached video from Paperback Weddings to see what gems these two are.  Thank you to Tyler Branch Photo for sharing these beautiful pictures with us.  Thank you to 100 Layer Cake for the feature as well :)  And I can't forget my partner in crime....Stephanie from Ribbons & Rust our amazing vintage rental friend, she has great stuff, and we have so much fun styling together!
