Instagram and Flowers

Yay for zinnia, dahlia and the last few hydrangea bushes still brave enough to blossom.  I love fall, and truth be told, I wish I could spend all day in the floral studio celebrating with autumn blooms.  Below are a few of the bouquets and other arrangements we've enjoyed creating this year.  I've taken these shots on my iPhone, so had to razzle dazzle a few of them a bit through instagram.  Hope you have fun looking through them and come up with some new ideas for your wedding!

Castle Ladyhawke Weddings

Castle Ladyhawke is a fairy tale location, hands-down.  I had the fortune of a client meeting there one night this week and all the memories of royal weddings we've done there came rushing back.  Here are some images by Visio Photography that convey just a taste of the magic guests experience at a Ladyhawke wedding.

Darcy and Cortney

So many truly amazing, kind-hearted brides and grooms have chosen Occasions by Emily to help with their weddings over the years.  Darcy and Cortney will always be at the front of my memory, though, due to their kindness to all, love for each other, exceptional sense of humor and genuine gratitude they showed to all.  Watching their slideshow by Aaron Imaging makes me want to do their wedding all over again.  Here's to more parties with Darcy and Cortney over the years!
