Erin & Keith at St Joseph Parish

Erin and I began planning the flowers for her wedding in February of this year. I was immediately intrigued with Erin's red and blue color scheme. I love how Erin managed to pull off a daring color palette, while remaining elegant at the same time. wedding at St Joseph Parish

The venue was St Joseph Parish in Dexter. This was only the third wedding to be held there. High ceilings, clean lines and abundant natural light make St Joseph an amazing venue.

After the ceremony and pictures, the altar arrangements made their way over to Barnstormer to decorate the reception. Moving your altar arrangements is a great way to get the most for your money. Now all the guests have a chance to admire them up close! The altar arrangements are made up of Black Baccara roses, pale blue hydrangea, light blue Bella Donna delphinium, myrtle, scented geranium, and bamboo branches.

The bridal bouquet combines Schwartzwalder mini callas with Avant Garde roses, Cool Water roses and Viviane Spray roses.
