Julie has a tranquil but intentional presence about her. She is always listening, contemplating, maneuvering. She is one of the most honest people I know, she’s tough, but is sentimental beyond all belief and a romantic that puts my hopeless romantic musings to shame.

From the emotional tear-filled vows between two people who truly know each other inside and out and respect every ounce of that, to the Tomahawk Chop on the dance floor, it was a spirited evening brimming with love, family, and lifelong friends who just wanted to dance and enjoy a weekend away with their favorite people.

Mary + Spencer are joy bottled up. They illuminate around each other. They look at each other, I mean really look at each other. It isn’t just one of them looking, it is both of them looking at each other with the same, “I can’t believe this is my person” look on their face every single time. During their first dance Mary twirled around the floor as they sang to each other, and I sat on the sidelines weeping like a weirdo. Their love is palpable.

Her dahlias came from my friend’s home garden, the zinnias, strawflower and cosmos from a freshly planted flower farm harvesting their first blooms, making for the perfect Oregon farm wedding.

There’s just something about lavender that really calms the nerves, and Rachel’s wedding reflected that. Throughout the entire design process I felt like I could breathe, each arrangement flowing naturally.

Cappuccino and mocha were just two of the words used to describe the flowers we used to create Caitlin and Zachary’s color story. This creamy blend of blooms created a classic palette with depth. More couples who aren’t afraid to venture into creamy - some might even say “brown” - please!

I may live in Oregon now, but receiving photos from Emily and +Rob’s summer wedding back in Florida really left me craving a visit to those blue oceans.

Emilie + Michael recently celebrated their two year anniversary, so I thought it might be fitting to finally share their wedding day! Emilie’s vision opened me up to play with color and movement. She allowed me the freedom to design and I truly believe that’s when the best results spring up.
