Kristen and Spencer were married at Devils Thumb Ranch On July 18, 2009. I had so much fun with this wedding from day one! Kristen's Mom Bet hired us for flowers site unseen last fall. From the first phone call, I knew I had a new friend for life. We built the wedding decor around "big happy fun flowers." That was the direction I was given from Kristen. After deciding on an apple green, pink and orange color palatte, Kristen picked lilies, roses and gerber daisies. This is one of Pick Me's favorite looks to create. We draped the tables with apple green organza overlays and created a large kings table in the middle of the Broad Axe Barn to break up the usual seating in the space. Spencer's Mom Trish hired us to do the rehearsal dinner flowers so we were able to create smaller versions of the ceremony arrangements in 4" galvanized tins and reuse them the next day as extra decor.
After meeting and deciding on flowers, Bet and Kristen hired us for day-of coordination. So we were fortunate enough to work with local blugrass band Hunker Down, Paula from Tea-Cup Bakery and CR and Tiffany from Brinton Studios. Paula created individual table cakes that were served to each table right before toasts. Trust me, nothing brings a table together like cutting into a beautiful cake and serving each other HUGE slices of cake.
Wine corks were used as place card holders and as the couple left the reception, they rode off into the night on a wagon - complete with Cabin Creek Stable horses - as there guests played bright orange kazoos. Yep, there was a kazoo send off. These are my kind of people!
