Valerie & Adam

I just love bold monochromatic arrangements and Valerie's flowers were no exception. Valerie and Adam chose a red and black color scheme for their wedding incorporating a mix of bold modern accents.

The bridal bouquet is a mix of roses, ranunculus, anemones, parrot tulips and glossy black fern curls accented with black satin and a vintage brooch.

Each bridesmaid carried a bouquet of single type flowers as a simple but unique compliment to their bold black and white dresses. Flowers included gerber daisies, carnations, roses and french tulips.

I do particularly love non-flower boutonnieres... there's something so much more masculine about it, in my opinion. For Adam's boutonniere we used a collection of rosemary, hypericum berries and a glossy black fern curl tied with black velvet.

And just because I absolutely love this detail shot...

Julie & Brian

Julie and Brian are a super cute couple who just love the stuffing out of each other. Julie’s bubbly fun personality is complimented by Brian’s quiet and dry sense of humor. These photos from Amanda Egan’s blog capture that connection perfectly.

Definitely warranting some blog love are Jenny from Brideface who did Julie's makeup and Jen with Your Wedding By Jen who wore the hat of wedding planner.
