Renei and Don 7.25.09

Renei and Don were married at the beautiful St. Joseph's Cathedral in San Jose and had their reception at the Corinthian Event Center. Their wedding was a blast--a blast from the past! Renei and I were friends from high school who lost touch after going our separate ways to college. It was so nice re-connect (thanks Facebook!) after all of these years. Renei asked me to do the flowers for her wedding and my husband Tuan to do the photography. It was one of the most memorable weddings I've attended. It was really special to be able to work a wedding and then partake in the reception where I was able to re-connect with other high school and Jr. high school friends. I had a wonderful time creating their flower arrangements and I know that Tuan had a great time shooting their pictures.


I guess it pays to be the photographers wife, as I was able to get a sneak preview of the pictures. Here are just some of the pictures of their flowers.




I probably say this after every bouquet I make, but Renei's monochromatic bouquet of pink peonies, rosita vendela roses, mini cala lilies, dahlias and sweet peas is going on my list of favorites I've made.

Thanks Renei and Don, for allowing us to create and photograph! But, most of all, thanks for allowing us to share in your joy and special day!

Monica & JD 7.18.09


I couldn't wait to post pictures of Monica and JD's wedding flowers. Their wedding was just yesterday (7.18.09)! Monica and JD were married at the very cute Church of the Wayfarer in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. Their reception took place at the Monterey Plaza Hotel. The day could not have been lovelier. For the weather being so HOT in the South Bay, things were perfect sea-side.

We were going for a "vintage-garden" look and decided to have the escort cards and candy bar set on top of moss table tops. The outcome was better than I had imagined. For the centerpieces, Monica showed me a picture of a centerpiece that she loved using rusted urns and ivy. Our version of the centerpiece came out lovely and really pulled the "vintage-garden" look together.

Monica's bouquet had a combination of cattleya, phalaenopsis, and mini cymbidium orchids. Her bridesmaid bouquets were made of Juliet garden roses and for her flower girls we made cute little pomander balls made of white buttom mums.


I had a great time working with Monica and creating her beautiful arrangements! Congratulations Monica and JD!!

Pam and Rajesh 6.20.09

June 20th was a lovely and busy day! Pam and Raj's wedding took place right before Melissa and Eriks, but it was a great way to kick off the summer! Their wedding took place at the Saratoga Country Club where the afternoon could not have been more beautiful. I loved making their light blue hydrangea and vendela rose centerpieces.

Here are a couple pictures from Melissa and Erik's wedding, which took place on June 20th at the Lafayette Park Hotel in Lafayette, CA. We made cute green button mum pomanders and their centerpieces were three different height vases with submerged green cymbidium orchids with floating candles. Congrats Melissa and Erik!
