It is fair week here in Washington County! If you haven't gone yet... get over there. It's the time of year to get your fix of fried food, cotton candy, animals, carnival rides, and tractors... there are plenty of tractors! We had fun today!
One of my Favorites!
Hi! I am so excited to get to post this wedding. This was a wedding at Rose Emporium that I did the flowers for this summer.
A little backstory... I have now done three weddings for three girls in the same family. This was the most recent of the three.
I have grown to really love this family, this young couple in particular.
They have huge hearts, serving both locally in thier own town, but also in Haiti.
All the pictures were taken by Kelly Hornberger. She is an awesome photographer here in Texas.
Please check out her website at http://www.kellyhornberger.com/.
One of the most enjoyable things about my job has been the people. The brides, the moms, the families, the other professionals...
You are right, my job is Awesome!
The ceremony and reception were held at the Antique Rose Emporium.
This was one of the candleabras at the ceremony in the little chapel on site.

This is the covered pavillion where most of the dining tables were set up.


This family really paid attention to every detail. Everything was already so cute before I got there with all these flowers... they were like the icing on the cake!
I really tried to use alot of fresh herbs and other freshly picked materials to accentuate the flowers in a natural way.
Some of what I used: rosemary, lemon verbena, mint, parsley blooms, and plumosa fern.

The two family rows of chairs at the cermony had cute little floral bouquets attached with ribbon.
Thank you Claire, and mom Amy, for letting me be a part of this special day. Your family is awesome, I love you all.
Claire and Brent... hold on tight. You are in for the adventure of a lifetime!
Most posts to come, I have been working a ton!

A Crimson Rose Wedding
This was a wedding a few weeks ago here in Brenham. The bride really loved the 'black magic' roses, along with plenty of lush crimson red roses. Her accent colors were silver, black and cream. It was a really simple and pretty wedding.
The ceremony was at First Baptist Church in Brenham. And the reception was at Ant Street Inn. I really like Ant Street Inn. It was big enough for a large wedding, but still felt intimate.
Every other pew had candles and river rocks in glass cylinders.

Hey there! I can't believe it is already time to go back to school. Even on the days I am exhausted and really can't take one more screaming match (the boys, not me) or one more spilled cup of red Kool Aid on the carpet, I realize that I will miss them when they go back to school.
It was our first summer with Owen home and it was a blast. Owen is actually an excellent swimmer, at 19 months old, yelling "CANNON BALL" and jumping head first into the pool w/his little arm floaties on. That is his way: he is fearless.
Reid will start Kindergarten and Blake will be in PreK. Where has the time gone?
I am so proud of them, they are becoming such sweet little men. But, trust me, they are all boy.
A funny quote from Reid two nights ago in bathtub. All three boys still pile into the same bathtub. It's fun to watch all those legs try to snake in there, knowing the days of sharing a tub are nearly gone.
So, Reid and Blake were apparently arguing over something... a toy? a popsicle? a popsicle stick? a washrag? a bar of soap? who knows. Finally, Reid looks over at Blake and says, "Blake, let's just shake hands, and let pythons be pythons."
And he was dead serious.
Are you kidding me?
Just a prime example of why I love my job!
Get Ready... A Sale is Coming!
Okay... so I didn't realize it actually costs you money to sell things on eBay... so I am cleaning out, taking pictures... and posting things to my blog... over the next days (weeks, let's be honest) I will be posting some great stuff to my moosefeathers store page.
If you see something you are interested... do not walk away!! This is the last of the store inventory (and maybe a few neat things I scrounge up) and it needs to go!
Go check it out!!
Sarah and Abel
Sarah and Abel Crosby got married on May 15, 2010... It was a beautiful, fun, and very PINK wedding. This will probably be one of the longer posts you read from me, so grab a cup of coffee and get comfortable!
The ceremony was at First Baptist Church, Brenham, TX. The carpet had recently been replaced which was a blessing... No more maroon, now it is a neutral gray. It was a good thing, because there was going to be a pink wedding there, no matter what color the carpet was!
The guests tossed various shades of pink rose petals at the bride and groom before they drove off.Her pink shoes and hot pink flowers... so Sarah.
Lynsey Kramer, the photographer, saved the day and the picture sessions with these adorable pink umbrellas... so creative. Sarah is a girly girl, so it is natural to see her with a pink umbrella and hot pink flowers.

This is Sarah the bride and Lynsey Kramer, the photographer herself. If you would like information on Lynsey's photography, please contact me directly.

This is Sarah and her bridesmaids.

The bride & groom after the ceremony.
This was such a cute idea. The couple didn't want to see each other before the wedding. But, they wanted to get a little time together to calm thier nerves. So, with a door separating them, they got to hold hands and never see each other!

So, with a door separating them, they got to hold hands and never see each other! There is a more serious version of this picture, with thier eyes closed like they are praying. But I chose to post this one because, to me, this is what Sarah and Abel are really like. Fun and silly and in love!
There are so many cute things you can do for weddings these days. I sometimes think about what my wedding would look like if I did it again... with all this practice under my belt.
The reception was at the Gidding Stone Mansion. This was a large "fish bowl" type arrangement sitting on the piano. The piano served as the gift table.

One great thing about this wedding was nearly everything at the ceremony was reused at the reception. The toppers of these centerpieces were the decorations that hung on the pews. When the wedding was over, we just popped them off the pews, and placed them on top of the cylinders full of coffee beans and limes.

Guest favors. Little pink and white candies in cute white boxes with pink ribbon.

Another picture of Haley's awesome dessert buffet.

In the pew markers we used: fresh cut garden greenery, pink carnations, pink roses, hypericum berries in pink and green, and pink wax flower.
