Vintage/ Garden Wedding- September 24, 2011

Fields in Bloom had the wonderful opportunity to be a part of Misty and Raf's wedding on September 24, 2011. I was so excited to get the referral back in July from an old college friend; her co-worker was getting married and she gave the bride my contact information.

Misty went to great lengths to add personal touches to the decor to really tie the different aspects of the wedding and reception together. When we met she told me she had collected various mason jars to hold the centerpieces as well as different patterned blue and pink china to add to the vintage/garden feel she wanted for her wedding. She wanted to bring the garden into the wedding; and I think we did just that!

The wedding was located at two venues in Lexington that I had never worked at before. Located only one block apart, the ceremony was held in the outside garden area of the Hunt-Morgan House and the reception at the Bodley- Bullock House. Both were great venues and were absolutely breathtaking. They were ideal spots to host this couple's special day!

For the bride's bouquet we went with a simple bouquet of ivory roses and added the pink berries to really give it the garden feel. For the bridesmaids bouquets we went with blue hydrangea. For the centerpieces, ceremony pieces and wreaths we went with blue hydrangea, white football mums, pale pink roses to add a touch of color and berries and greenery to add some depth and texture. The flower girl headpiece turned out great; the spray roses and berries really added to the look of the little garden fairy.

Message from the happy bride- "The flowers were amazing!!!!! You did a beautiful job and just made my wedding so perfect! Thank you!"

This was Fields in Bloom's first big solo event and it went great! I learned a lot and the end result was beautiful. Enjoy a few snapshots from the day. (Photos by Linda King)
