Warm Toned Autumn Wedding at The Garden Room
One thing I love about my job is that no wedding, no couple is alike. That means I get to be creative in a different way for each event I design for. I feel especially lucky when a client gives me free reign—within reason—for their big day. Brooke brought me photos of my own work (so flattering) and asked for muted, early fall tones. The palette was perfect for her early November wedding to Jacob at the beautiful Garden Room here in town. The free reign part, you ask? She said I could choose any flowers as long as they were in her color palette! I was so excited to design her autumn fantasy.

For this shoot, the amazing team at Brittany Bloom Events envisioned an amazing day focused on inclusivity, celebrating all forms of love. The beautiful, ivy covered Stone Chappel at MattLane Farm served as the glorious backdrop for our swoon worthy same-sex couple models Michael and Doug. Our role was to create an airy, ethereal ambiance for the shoot. As I shared in The Perfect Palette’s blog on this lovely day Celebrating Love’s Diversity in an Ivy Garden Elopement, “I wanted a whimsical but rich feeling, so I used a lot of lightweight summer flowers...lisianthus, ranunculus, open roses, gomphrena, stock & trailing amaranthus."
