Devils Thumb Ranch, Sunflowers

This weekend we had the honor of coordinating Libby and John's wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch. I'd like to share a few of the details that will stick with us for a long time to come.

Libby and John's wedding was about 2 families coming together. Every single aspect of the wedding weekend was about their kids (some little and some grown) and the love John and Libby have for them. Bands played, kids danced, wagon rides were had and in honor of Michael Jackson, I believe the cocktail hour on the deck was a "thriller." Thanks to Matt from Elite DJ, the crowd boogied down!

Libby chose to break from tradition in a beautiful white floral dress. It was simple stunning. We also had the joy of working with Miss Amy Keating of the Flower House on the decor. She handled all of the floral side while we worked the linen aspect. We were able to combine forces and reuse the sunflower buckets from Friday's rehearsal dinner as extra decor for the ceremony (echoing her incredible sunflower garland) while Amy kept the tone of the BroadAxe Barn more formal with tall arrangements made from roses, hydrangeas and oriental lilies.

All in all, a great weekend was had . . .by all!

Devils Thumb Ranch, Rehearsal Dinner

Libby and John know how to throw a party. This weekend at Devils Thumb Ranch, Rami and I had the honor of coordinating the wedding and creating the decor for the rehearsal dinner at Heck's Tavern. Bright yellow sunflowers accented with red hypericum berries filled galvanized tin pots. Red checked napkins were rolled and placed at each table setting. Bright red laterns held tea lights on each table. Twinkle lights lit up the umbrellas on the deck. And the topper of it all was a huge candy bar with personalized bags that read simply . . .love is sweet.

Sunflowers at Snow Mountain Ranch!

The most incredible sunflowers I have ever seen are in July and August. This wedding (July last summer at Snow Mountain Ranch) was built around the sunflower idea.

I loved the addition of artichokes! Something Fun, Something Different.
