Raquel and Joel’s Wedding, St. Clare Chapel and the Centennial Barn, Cincinnati, OH

Raquel and Joel tied the knot last Saturday, immediately following Valentine’s Day. The ceremony flowers that went to St. Clare Chapel were all white. Raquel carried a classic all-rose bridal bouquet. It was simple, but ruffled and gorgeous – perfect for a winter wedding!

Raquel switched it up for her reception at the Centennial Barn with red rose centerpieces. How romantic!

The year has kicked off to a great start! In the last couple of weeks I’ve filled up almost every weekend in May, June is halfway booked, and I’m starting to talk to brides about autumn weddings. I have some big weddings with 30+ centerpieces, small weddings with 10-12 centerpieces, and a few weddings that are just bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages. The thing is - I’m really excited about all of them. I’ll be doing classic red for a Valentines wedding; woodland weddings with ferns, succulents, and moss; romantic champagne, blush and gold flowers; and an over-the-top English garden wedding. This is going to be an awesome year! I can’t wait to show you all the pretty that is happening here!
