This Weekend's Wedding

The flowers I did for the wedding this weekend were bright and beautiful.  They contrasted nicely with the steady green of the golf course.  The colors certainly needed to be bright to compete with the heat!  It was 97 degrees!  The ceremony was at 7:30 so luckily it had cooled down to a lovely 89 degrees....I smelled myself after setting up this wedding!  I did wait until the last possible minute to put the flowers in the wilting heat.
These roses....lovely!
Pomanders punctuated the candelabras....I love my black iron labras....so New Orleans....
Tera helping me set up....
I didn't spy any gators....although I've heard there are some there....
Bridesmaid's bouquets....
...and an adorable flower girl that insisted on holding her pomander like a bouquet....guess she wanted to be like the big girls...
....this little guy didn't want to walk in a stupid wedding....
....especially not with any dumb girls....
...and to be greeted by huge grinning people is just plain scary...
....my husband called this the "walk of shame"....the little ring bearer was not happy and he let everyone know!
...then always the best part...the Bride and her Father....
...the pomanders served double duty as centerpieces later....a nice way to save a buck.

Kristi,

You do such beautiful work! Yesterday I talked to a lady who reads your blog...she called you the Martha Stewart of Pentecost! ha! I thought that was sweet, but I don't know...I'm not sure that Lil' Martha can hold a candle to my little sis!
