A Bride & Blossom Wedding on Carats & Cake

Bride-blossom-carats-cake

Carats & Cake featured the picture perfect wedding of my dear friends Aaron and Lindsay. What could be better than designing wedding flowers for a couple I introduced?

Castle Hotel & Spa, one of Westchester’s poshest venues, was the perfect setting for the outdoor ceremony under a fairytale floral arch and a glamorous reception surrounded by high and low centerpieces and arrangements in shades of purple. The romantic bridal bouquet was composed of rare Mentha roses from South Africa, in the most delicate shade of lavender. I loved Lindsay’s taste and vision so much that we hired her as Bride & Blosssom’s new Creative Director!

Here are more lovely images from the styled shoot we did recently with a fantastic group of collaborators. (For part one, see Thinking Inside The Box.)

We composed the bridal bouquet and centerpiece arrangements with loose, romantic blooms in a soft color palette of cream, lavender, blush and green. Dahlias played a starring role, supported by roses and hydrangea. Furniture and accessories in rustic wood and gleaming metal gave the set a a modern and glamorous look. Inspired?
