This past weekend I was fortunate to participate in my very first bridal expo. It was an incredible experience. I ran into a few acquaintances, was introduced to some great vendors in the industry, and met some pretty wonderful brides-to-be. To top everything off, the expo was extremely organized and well run, all thanks to Louie's Tux Shop. I can definitely see myself participating in years to follow.
In addition to showing a few different seasonal and color options, I also wanted brides to be able to see that there is no limit to how flowers can add to a wedding. A bouquet completes a bride's look, draping garland adds incredible character to a long table, and nothing is more precious than a flower girl adorned with a head crown.

| Winter weddings are starting to become more popular. There are so many options for a winter bride with whites, greens, silvers etc. I even had fun with the above when I curled and spray painted galaxy leaves. |

| Bouquets do not always have to be overly floral. Sometimes the beauty can come from more natural and organic elements. |

| The calla lilies above provide a few fun and different options for high boys and centerpieces. Flowers submerged in water always have a dramatic feel to them, and who doesn't love floating candles? |

Matching centerpiece, head crown and flower girl basket all in a pastel tone that works great for spring and early summer weddings.

| Garlands can be a fun addition to many aspects of a wedding: The head table, connecting the bride and groom's chairs, and lining the aisle at the ceremony just to name a few. |

A huge thank you to my two wonderful sisters for helping me out all day. I couldn't have done it without you!
