Real Weddings: Jen & Brian

As I've said recently I'm catching up on my blogging. Just like my albums and website there's a lot of gorgeous weddings from 2010 and 2011 that I haven't taken the time to feature. They are too good to keep secret so I'm sharing them now.

Jen and Brian are good friends of mine. I've known Jen since 8th grade and we've been friends ever since. I couldn't pick a better guy for her. Brian is such a genuine person and has welcomed her son into his life as part of the family. It was truly an honor to do flowers for their wedding day. 

They were married at A Country Location in Arlington on 7.17.10. Such a beautiful country style outdoor setting. We combined Jen's modern taste with a natural setting. Love the rich orange and brown tones.

Orange rose petals scattered along the grass aisle-way. Shepherd hooks with hanging Pomander balls in rich orange tones accented the aisle-way. 
The natural vine arch had different sized green and orange Pomander balls hanging from it
The Bride carried a bouquet of Roses, Mokara Orchids, Mini Calla Lillies, Phaleonopsis Orchids, Fern Curls and Spray Roses

Whites, champagnes, soft peaches and salmon orange created a subtle color for her bouquet with a gorgeous creaminess

The Bridesmaids carried rich and colorful bouquets of orange and chartreuse green. A combination of Mini Calla Lillies, Roses, Spray Roses, Protea, Orchids, Fern Curls and Brazillia berry.

A nice contrast to their chocolate brown dresses

The kid's tables had fun centerpieces of wheat grass with lollipops growing out of them. An unusual centerpiece, but also a favor/treat for the kiddos

The cake was done by a family friend, delicious and beautiful
