Meredith & Nicholas November 24, 2007

Meredith and Nicholas were absolutely GLOWING yesterday! We could not have asked for a more beautiful day. The ceremony was held at the Chapel at Trinity University. The ceremony was filled with candle light and love. The bridesmaids looked wonderful in their mixture of dark to light Brown gowns. For the bouquets we chose ivory and chocolate brown peonies with rhinestone accents. These flowers done by our very talented florist William Garza were the perfect accents.


The reception site was Pearl Stable and it was perfect for the big plans this couple had. They really wanted to incorporate unique details that represented them as a couple throughout their wedding and reception. These details included a candy bar stocked full of sweet delectable delights as well as a variety of pizza for all to enjoy!



The center pieces for the reception were tons of candles, small arrangements of ivory peonies and beautiful LARGE trees with elegant crystals cascading down from the branches that together my florist and I were able to create. The overall feel was romantic and fun, fun, fun!





The cake that the couple chose was stunning. It was five tiers with chocolate brown swirl details all over the ivory icing.




The family and friends of both the bride and groom had a blast dancing to the fantastic live band!


This celebration of love was definitely not one to be soon forgotten!

Ashley & Martin November 17, 2007


Ashley and Martin were radiant and oh so in love! This couple had an abundance of fantastic ideas for their wedding and I truly enjoyed my time spent planning their union.



The ceremony and reception were both held at the International Center in downtown San Antonio. The city scape and dozens of candles lining the windows and tables made for an exquisite and unique evening!


The bridesmaids dress was black and she carried a small bouquet of flowers mimicking that of Ashley's she also wore a beautiful burnt orange chrysanthemum in her hair to tie the entire outfit together.






The French Connections wonderful guitarists played music requested by the couple to set the mood for cocktail hour.

It was really the little details that made this wedding so memorable. Ashley and Martin were filled with ideas about how they wanted to keep their day personal to them as a couple. These details included black and white photographs of them and family and friends strung around the room.



Ashley and Martin did not want just any wedding cake they wanted cupcakes! The cupcakes they chose were absolutly dazzling! The couple cut slices out of the cupcake to feed to one another at the traditional cutting of the cake.



The over all feel of the wedding was fun and relaxed everyone seemed to have had a blast! One of my favorit moments from this wedding was Ashley and Martin dancing in the center of a circle of their loved ones as bubbles floated around the room. What a truly memorable moment!




Ashley and Martin were such a lovely couple to work with I can hardly believe that their wedding is already over. I could not be happier for them!
