Today was a great day! Jodi and Karl were married, and they used cacti and echeveria for their centerpieces! Here is the army of succulents ready to go:
The vases were used in trios on the tables.
Congratulations Jodi and Karl!
Echeveria, Leucadendron and Thimble Cactus
Along with the two kinds of green leucadendron, Mayesh had some gorgeous Echeveria coccinea last week. I snagged a few stems and paired them with Echeveria 'frosty' and Echeveria 'Violet Queen.' My favorite parts though, are the cute Mammillaria gracilis fragilis, or thimble cactus - do you see them? They're tiny little cactus balls with reflexed spines. I will definitely be sneaking these into more bouquets!
Kelli and Andrew's Wedding in Flushing, Michigan
I have one last Michigan wedding to share. Kelli and Andrew's wedding was incredibly special to me. Andrew is good friends with my husband, and Kelli was my workout partner. She has to be the kindest and most genuine person I know. She and Andrew make a gorgeous couple too! The photos are by one of my favorite photographers - Emily Meyer-Jenkins from Signature Portrait Studio. Are you ready for all of this gorgeousness?
Kelli with her sister.
Kelli's bouquet was made up of gardenias, white cymbidium orchids, white ranunculus, white sweet peas, Maureen French tulips, Green Fashion roses, and scented geranium.
The bridesmaids carried monobotanical bouquets of Maureen French tulips.
The rain held off just long enough after the ceremony for some lovely photos. Kelli and Andrew are seriously gorgeous, and so in love!
The centerpieces were simple and elegant. You can't go wrong with tall pilsner vases filled with Maureen French tulips.
Congratulations Kelli and Andrew!
