When I started becoming a florist I was very excited to be working with flowers, but as I have worked more and more I'm finding I'm enjoying working with people. I love seeing people as potential friends. When a bride is planning her wedding she wants to be surrounded by people, by friends who are excited for her. I hope I can help add to that excitement to every bride I work with.
When I first met Bethany I also met her mother Pattie. What first noticed about them was their visible close relationship. They were bouncing ideas off of each other and were so in tuned with each other's likes and thoughts. It was very fun planning with them.
The colors Bethany wanted were burgundy, pale pink, white, and gold. I fell in love with this color combination. These colors just flowed together so naturally.
For Bethany, she wanted a floral crown and a cascading bouquet. Oh I just loved how both of these arrangements turned out. The flowers used in the floral crown were myrtle, pink spray roses, hypericum berries, and wax flower. I used gold sparkled floral tape in the crown. The flowers used in the bouquet were pink roses, burgundy and white carnations, baby's breath, wax flower, seeded eucalyptus, and aspen leaves. I added some gold sparkled ribbon in the bouquet.
Here is the grooms boutonniere. The flowers used were pink spray roses and baby's breath wrapped in the gold floral tape. I love how the pink and gold went together beautifully.
Here is a picture of the father's boutonnieres. Made with burgundy pixie carnations, baby's breath, and leather leaf also wrapped in the gold floral tape.
Mother's corsages where made with pink pixie carnations, baby's breath, and leather leaf and also wrapped in gold floral tape.

Which match the baby's breath bouquet for the bridesmaids.
These are centerpieces that were on the table. A three piece centerpiece, a picture, a mason jar, and a shot glass with carnations and baby's breath. Each table had a different color of carnations, either burgundy, pink, or white. So simple and so pretty.
Bethany wanted flowers on the arch way back drop for her wedding ceremony. The look of the flowers is similar to Bethany's bouquet. The flowers are the same as well.
Bethany also wanted jars of baby's breath guiding the way into the reception and down the aisle. I love how these bouquets of baby's breath ended up. Beautiful!
Here is Bethany and Dan's wedding cake. An elegant cluster of flowers on the front of the cake, in the second tier. The flowers used are the same as the arch back drop and bridal bouquet flowers.
I feel a sense of real accomplishment when I look at a finished arrangement and realize, "I created that." I love developing the talent in by hands of enhancing the beauty a flower has. Putting flowers together into a bouquet, a vase, a cake and seeing how the flowers interact and compliment each other is incredible to me. I love what I do!
I took the pictures above and the following pictures were taken by Bethany and Dan's wedding photographer Haley Hoch Photo.
Thank you Bethany and Pattie for letting me help with this special day! I truly enjoyed working with you and creating this arrangements for you! You both are a true joy to know!
Pattie and Bethany were very willing to give me quotes about their experience working with me.
"Hannah was really great to work with! She quickly understood what we were looking for. As we tried to describe things she, was able to make wonderful recommendations while still allowing us total control. I'm so grateful we found her. :)" -Pattie
"Hannah did a great job with helping me get my flowers done for my bridals and wedding. She understood exactly what I wanted and made my wedding dreams into reality. She definitely has an eye for putting it all together. The flowers were gorgeous, and I was so fortunate to have her patience and hard work throughout it all. The flowers created the most beautiful atmosphere for our perfect day." -Bethany
Thank you both so much!
