Sutter Club Wedding Sacramento

admin — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 00:44:49 +0000

Rita and Hayden’s wedding was the first wedding of the 2011 year, and it has finally made it on the blog! As many of you may or may not know, we are go-go-go all year long with weddings, so when things finally begin to slow down over the Winter months, we begin to reflect back on the year, get in touch with photographers who magically captured the beauty of each event, and we start to share all of the exciting designs from the year with you!

This wedding was so beautiful, classy and timeless. Rita was such a pleasure to work with; she was absolutely a sweetheart, and was lovely to collaborate on this wedding with, along with the girls of Fearon May Events. Rita and Hayden were married at The Sutter Club in downtown Sacramento, a beautiful historical building that has so much character and beautiful touches! The Studio took all of the images you see displayed on our blog, so please enjoy!

Rita’s bouquet was designed with all miniature calla lilies. She was looking for a simple, classic look, and this was the perfect choice for her to carry.

The ceremony took place indoors underneath the doorway of two rooms adjoining. Both Hayden and Rita’s closest family and friends surrounded them on all sides to be a part of the beautiful ceremony. Crystals and pomanders hung from the doorway draped down over the couple during the ceremony.

With long banquet tables for guest seating, we varied tall and short centerpieces throughout the room. Tall silver candelabras with white and red flowers were spaced evenly throughout the room with red votives and shorter versioned centerpieces. Flowers used included white hydrangea, red anemones, and red ranunculus.

Tall silver candelabras from our inventory with crystals make for the perfect height addition to your tables.

Square silver vases were used for the short tables to save room on the banquet tables. Red glass votives were the perfect ‘pop’ of color to the tables.

Smaller centerpieces for guest tables with white and red flowers.

I am hoping to have more lovely content to share with you all as we get more images in from events from the 2011 year, so stay tuned and hold tight for some amazing posts to come!

Featured Sacramento Wedding

admin — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 08:00:27 +0000

Faith and Andrew shared an Arden Hills Wedding earlier this year; Faith was such a pleasure to work with and so sweet! Jaqueline Photography captured the day beautifully, so excited to share these pics with you all!

Their colors were bright green, purple and Faith’s favorite color, pink! The look they were going for was fun and bright colors. It turned out really fun & to see more pics, head on over to On The Go Bride where this was featured this week!

Faith loves gerbera daisies, so we used hot pink gerberas, poppy pods, hot pink spray roses, purple stock and purple florigene ‘Moonvistas’ for her bouquet. She was also looking for a little shimmer in her bouquet, so we added some small detailing within the flowers.

The guest tables consisted of one vase that was colored glass, and three clear vases surrounding the center vase. Faith wanted a fun and bright wedding, so they chose a teal runner for the tables and berry colored napkins. These centerpieces were the perfect “pop” of color on these linens!

Faith put together this adorable candy buffet! I had to share! This is such a fun way of bringing your colors together and also making a favor station.

So beautiful!

Congratulations Faith & Andrew! I love this photo Jackie captured!

The Flower Farm Inn Wedding

admin — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 22:05:01 +0000

This beautiful Sacramento wedding was held last June at The Flower Farm Inn in Loomis, California. I love the Flower Farm Inn for a number of reasons: the luscious garden, beautiful barn, and free-range chickens! Yes!

Shauna and Wagner were married at The Flower Farm Inn, and what a delight it was to design their gorgeous dusty pink and garden-feeling florals. A special thanks to Maurice Ramirez Photography for providing some lovely images to share with you all. If you haven’t checked out his website already, his work is amazing!

Alison with Alison Ulshoffer Events coordinated the day for a smooth and seamless day!

Gorgeous pink peonies, anemones, antique green hydrangeas.. ahhh, so beautiful!

I thought this was such a sweet photograph. The flower head wreath she is wearing was created with roses and antique hydrangeas, the perfect match to her champagne colored dress.

The men wore pink cymbidium orchid boutonnieres.

Detailing treatment on the stems with rhinestone accents. The peonies used here were stunning!

The bridesmaid bouquets were created with a soft look. I love the combinations of pink and ivory as well as the soft, romantic florals we used to create these.

The arch at Flower Farm Inn was decorated with hanging amaranthus and lush florals for a beautiful backdrop for the ceremony.

Kissing balls lined the aisle for the ceremony site.

For the guest tables, a simple grouping of peonies surrounded by vintage glasses with peonies inside were used for centerpieces. Sometimes simplicity speaks volumes.

Finally, I had to leave you all with this gorgeous image! Congratulations Shauna and Wagner!

Hopefully you enjoyed this lovely garden-inspired peony wedding. As the weather continues to warm up, I look forward to more weddings like this around the corner!

Handmade Sacramento Wedding: Part 2

admin — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 11:00:38 +0000

And, we’re back again with more details from Melissa and Justin’s wedding. Today, we’re focusing on the reception! You can read more about this wedding on Style Me Pretty, where it was recently featured.

As guests entered the reception, we cleverly made these escort cards which were attached to craspedia for each of the guests. It was a beautiful display and fun!

Dinner was served family-style, so centerpieces were kept simple so that platters of food could be shared.

For the main head table, we lined it with flowers and wine bottle candlesticks provided by the bride. I love how it all came together!

Table numbers were made by the sister of the bride, and were shingles from the groom’s grandmother’s home.

Napkins served a dual-purpose being favors as well. Each was mis-matched, and made by the mother of the groom. Tied off with a piece of jute and a tag made by the brother of the bride, what a lovely reminder of this special day!

The set-up at Scribner Bend Vineyards.

And, they lived happily ever-after!

Congratulations Melissa and Justin!

Handmade Sacramento Wedding: Part 1

admin — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 21:29:56 +0000

I’m so thrilled to share with you Melissa and Justin’s handmade Sacramento wedding! Held at Scribner Bend Vineyards, this wedding is chocked full of eye candy and steal-worthy design ideas! And talk about some details… Melissa made this wedding personalized down to the table numbers… and we’ll share!

A little background… Melissa was referred to me by her good friend, Mindy {a bride of mine from 2009, see Mindy + Matt’s Wedding}. Melissa works in the hospitality industry herself, so she knows everything about a pulled together look, and for her own wedding, it meant going all out!

One of Melissa’s favorite wedding blogs is Style Me Pretty, and what a greater honor to have her wedding featured here after she admired and followed this as she planned her own wedding.

Photographed by Heidi Huber Photography, here are some of the lovely images Heidi captured of the day….

Guests were welcomed with Justin’s bike which we adorned with flowers. The bike theme was subtly placed throughout the wedding, including Justin’s cuff links Melissa gave to him as a gift.

I love this photograph Heidi captured of Melissa, simply gorgeous!

Bridesmaids carried bouquets with a little rustic feel to them. The wedding was outdoors, and we wanted to “play off” the feel of the flowers in the same way. Yellow roses, yarrow, celosia and craspedia made this yellow-golden palette work wonders!

The men’s boutonnieres were created with yellow craspedia, or billy balls. We finished off the stems with natural jute, the perfect match!

Gotta love this, the bridesmaids all wore dresses in the yellow and gold palette, none matching! They all looked so beautiful, and their dresses were something they could wear again!

A “Here Comes the Bride” sign…. gotta love that, right? And, instead of a traditional runner, a burlap runner {so fitting} was used.

Shepherd hooks with floral accents we later used in the reception as additional decor.

Until tomorrow… there is just too much to share in one posting! Check back to see the reception!

Nature Inspired Wedding

admin — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 11:00:28 +0000

Janelle and Scott were married this April at Carvahlo Family Winery at the Old Sugar Mill. Their wedding day was nature inspired from the green leaves we used as petals, to their birch centerpieces, and of course, their tree cake!

You may have seen their wedding which was featured in the recent issue of Real Weddings Magazine. If you haven’t, make sure you pick up a copy and check out more of the gorgeous details and Janelle + Scott’s love story!

Hope you’ll enjoy these lovely images brought to us by the talented Brian Ganyo Photography. Thanks Brian!

The aisle was lined with varying heights of vases filled with white river rock and birch candles. Two large birch trees flanked either side of the stage to bring the outdoors in. Doug with Music on the Move up lit the birch trees to finish off the look.

Janelle wanted a white and green bouquet with lace wrapped stems to compliment her dress. An embellishment to the stems added a bit of elegance to this classic bouquet.

Janelle was simply stunning in her wedding gown!

Each of the bridesmaids wore dresses in differing shades of green… I just love this trend. Just having the differing shades really livens things up! The girls all carried white bouquets with green accents.

The flower girls carried birch baskets we filled with green leaves they scattered as they walked down the aisle.

Each of the girls wore these bird’s nest inspired rings. They loved these fun little accessories!

Birch centerpieces featured white and green flowers. Moss and leaf accents were placed on the table tops with green votives. I love the natural feel of these arrangements!

Finally, there tree cake was featured on a slice of wood and a bed of grass… with two love birds perched a top!

Congratulations Janelle and Scott!

Winchester Country Club Wedding Shoot

admin — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 11:00:03 +0000

I was thrilled to design a few bouquets and have the opportunity of working with some fabulous wedding vendors at the ever-gorgeous Winchester Country Club. I just love this venue, and I love Darcie, the on-site coordinator who is such a sweetheart. Darcie does an amazing job with each of her brides, it’s always a pleasure working with her!

This was my first opportunity to work with Kim J Martin photography, who captured all of these lovely images I just adore! Kim is a Sacramento based wedding photographer, and her youthful, go-get’em energy is contagious and inspiring! Make sure you check out her website and blog!

Some of the other wonderful vendors participating included:

Enchanted Bridal Shoppe who carries a large selection of wedding gowns and bridesmaid dresses. If you are looking to be treated like a princess, visit the helpful staff at Enchanted Bridal Shoppe.

This Fall wedding bouquet was designed with orange celosia, red spray roses, red calla lilies and a variety of seasonal items. We finished off the stems with a vintage brooch embellishment to add a nostalgic touch.

This pink and burgundy bouquet was created with pink dahlias, deep burgundy calla lilies and burgundy carnations. Small accents of pink berries add depth. The stems were adorned with a pink lace treatment for a feminine touch.

Sacramento Wedding Reception

admin — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 11:00:19 +0000

Day two of our orange and green wedding feature, and what better place for a wedding reception than an art gallery? When Kevin with Do An Event started forming the details of this wedding, I thought, how exciting, unexpected and fun! An art gallery for a reception, that’s just not your typical reception locale. Held at Beatnik Studios in downtown Sacramento, the art, the fun colors and the unexpected elements made for a memorable occasion.

And, the decor, not so typical either: fish, succulents and hanging arrangements? Right up our alley! Here are more lovely photos from the fantastic crew with The Memory Journalists:

The tables were a mixture of tall hi boy cocktail tables, long conference style raised tables and an assortment of varying types of centerpieces, all with orange goldfish and green accents.

Succulents are a great addition to add to tables, and you can always take them home and plant them following the reception!

Hanging structures and plants provided by Do An Event were placed throughout the room adding an interesting look to the ceiling as well as all the other excitement going on in the room!

What do you love most about this wedding? We’d love to hear!
