Julia married this past weekend, and we had so much fun working with this incredible young woman. Julia was such a sweet heart, and the groom was pretty awesome as well.

We made Julia's bouquet out of orange mango callas, circus roses, milva roses, antique green hydrangea, hypericum berry, orange mokara orchids and Don's famous Dahlias.  I keep chanting every week, "Please don't let it frost, please don't let it frost, please don't let it frost." I really need two more weeks of Don's Dahlias. I have some very important brides who really want his Dahlias. We are doing the no-frost dance around here every night.

 

We used natural vine and Italian ruscus painted brown to make these bouquets unique. I loved how everything turned out. Beautiful girls and beautiful flowers.

The wedding took place at St. Timothy's in Chantilly with a reception at the Westfields Marriott.

 

Guests were greeted by this very autumnal seating chart. The pictures repeated on the tables to coordinate seating.

 

We did elevated designs on my iron stands. I love these pieces, and it is the first time I got to use them this year. I bought them two years ago for my bride Lacey and every time I use them I think of her.

 

We created matching designs in my low iron bowls. All of the designs were perfect fall pieces.

Connie created an incredible wedding cake. I provided her with lots of blossoms, and she designed the cake while we watched. The cake was just perfect.

  
The super-star design of the night was the display for the candy apple table. We used three full bags of apples to create this piece. I could have packed a lot of lunches with all of those apples. Candy apples were set out as the favors for the guests. This was a super cute idea.

And to top it all off, a picture of the happy couple eating a candy apple of course.

 

We loved this couple and we are so glad we were a part of the big day. Thanks to Jennifer Arezzo and Ashley Gordon of a Simple Wish event planning.
