Celebrity Bride Guide and Pick Me! Floral and Events

Okay, I know that I have gone back to this wedding a few times . . .but what can I say? I LOVED everything about it. And today, as I was looking for the link on Jarrad Lister's blog, I found this! Yes, the wedding is featured in Celebrity Bride Guide! Old bottles filled with single stems of dendrobium orchids, parents perfect backyard, big white tent hung with 2 ft tall lanterns (I adore this look), a bride that was as kind as she is gorgeous and a photographer who sent me everything I asked for!!!

Kate had a clear vision of what she wanted and I was honored to create it! I wish you two a lifetime of love and happiness (and a CMA or two . . .)

Amy and JR - Devils Thumb Ranch Wedding

Amy and JR were married in the beginning of November at Devils Thumb Ranch. We had the best day of the fall . . . for our first WINTER wedding of the season! Please enjoy these beautiful images from Poli Weddings Photography of one of our favorite couples of the year.Here is Miss Amy on her way to meet JR for their first look at the stables. Honestly? Isnt this exactly how you want to feel on your wedding day? Amy and JR chose to see each other before the ceremony for their first looks at each other. A moment this special, just for themselves (and isnt the veil great?)

If you have a family tartan, why not build decor around it? Amy honored her families Scottish roots by incorporating this plaid onto the escort cards and the table runners.

Rami designed two different centerpieces for the Broad Axe Barn. The centerpiece above was a dark manzanita branch anchored in "snow" accented with phalanopsis orchids, hanging votive LED candles and wired crystals.

Love this picture. Love this ring!

For Amy and JR's chuppa, we built a simple arbor of aspen logs anchored in cement pots, covered with a touch of tulle and two all white arrangements on each side. These arrangements were made from white garden roses, dendrobium orchids, white ranunculous and purple privet berries.

We lined the aisle with a few mason jars hanging from shephard hooks filled with the white blooms and a few more berries. Each jar was wrapped with the family tartan again (here in ribbon form!)

For the second table arrangement choice, we used large cylinder vases wrapped with birch bark (I love this look) filled with larger blooms (white Oriental lilies, lisianthus, spider mums and green china berries)

Dont you want to cozy up to the HUGE fireplace in the Barn?

And the best part for us? We hung 25 black iron lanterns from the beams in the Broad Axe Barn (with LED candles, of course . . .we dont want to be the Mrs. OLeary's cow of Grand County . . .) and lined the sides of the barn with enough candles for the entire place to glow. Thank you again to Amy and JR for trusting us with the details of your day. And thank you for remembering to have fun with planning your wedding. We wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness (and sassy cowboy wisdom).

Happy Anniversary to Marie and Jon

I cant believe it's been a year since Jon and Marie's beautiful winter wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch. The best part about this wedding for me? Marie found Pick Me! Floral and Events because we worked on a wedding that a friend of hers was a bridesmaid in 2 years before. Did you get that connection? It's nice to know we are going something right! Thank you to Todd Newcomer for sharing his pictures with us.

Snow Mountain Ranch-Granby Wedding

This was one of those brides that I never met face to face. Look at the beautiful autumn colors in this one. I love working with different flowers like the portea and calla lilies. WE are excited to work with Dave Camara again next summer at Sunspot with Brian and Megan.
