Green spider mums

It isn’t often that I do a wedding having never met the bride, but it happens on occasion. This was one of them. Gillian had contacted me, after a referral by a former client of mine who had had her wedding at Don the Beachcomber in Huntington Beach, where Gillian and Jeff were getting married. They lived in Cardiff by the Sea, so meeting for a face to face consultation proved to be a challenge. But through email, picture sharing and phone meetings I was able to design a beautiful wedding with Gillian. On the day of the wedding, we missed each other by a half hour, so alas, no picture of the happy couple with the flowers, but here are a few of the details:

Gillian carried an all green bouquet of Alice Cymbidium orchids, green spider mums, green tea roses, and green dendrobium, surrounded by ti leaves.

Gillian's attendant carried a white and green bouquet. Here is a close up of the yoko ono button mums, green hypericum berry, white cushion pom pons and white roses, encased by bear grass.

I hand glued turquoise ribbon, topped with a band of gold ribbon to the square vases for the reception tables.
