Real Wedding: Lauren & AJ Brighton, Michigan | Photographer: Amanda Dumouchelle Often, when we think about traditional wedding colors, our minds go directly to pale pink or a handful of other popular colors. However, more and more brides and grooms are thinking outside the traditional wedding rainbow of colors. When couples decide to use untraditional colors, it creates a fun challenge for floral designers. I'm excited anytime I'm able to express my creativity with new colors, venues, etc. Think Outside the Color Box I was recently approached by a bride who wanted to use mauve as the primary color in her wedding day palette. It was one of the first-ever requests as a floral designer that I had fielded ...

Featured Wedding: Jen & Chris

I love setting up an outdoors ceremony, especially if it’s by a lake like this one was. The weather, thankfully, was beautiful for celebrating outside. That’s the challenge of deciding to do ceremonies in the outdoors well in advance. You have to plan everything a second ...
Featured Wedding: Erika & Eric
Real Wedding: Erika & Eric Pine Knob Mansion - Clarkston, Michigan | Photographer - Bre Thomas Photography Erika and Eric were lovely to work with. Even during the initial consultation, the couple was very outgoing and sweet. I simply couldn’t wait to begin to work with them! And Guess What Color Wins Again? Erika and Eric were going for a lavender purple wedding (purple was the color of the year after all!). There’s something very crisp and sweet about lavender that I knew would make for gorgeous details for the big day. The couple had also brainstormed and put together some ideas already, and I was eager to listen to what they had in mind and then take over from there with a few ideas of my own. Both of ...
