Au Natural





We are in the fabulous midst of planning season with our lovely brides and along the way we get to create so fun ideas that serve as the criteria for the whole event. It often starts with us asking some strange questions like "what's in your closet?", or "what kind of furniture do you like". The answers to these questions are critical in helping us understand a brides personal style and it is part of what keeps us motivated and completely in love with what we do.

This particular bride came to us with the words "unarranged, natural and non traditional". The venue for her April wedding is a wonderful winery in Paso Robles - Robert Hall Winery. Spectacularly traditional and classic winery. The combination of the bride's style and the surroundings create a wonderful design dichotomy that we love to play with.




What resulted was an aged iron urn (classic and traditional), with a robust combination of green and white blooms, interesting foliage, honey suckle vine, moss, fern curls AND my favorite - green pears and artichokes all interwoven into a spring burst of nature.

Can I just say have awesome it is to do what we do!! So fun and this pared with a some great linen in taupe, chartreuse and eggplant. Seriously happy.
