I finally did it ...
I said "I Do"
After a year of being prodded and being told that I should

I knew when she wrote and asked that I was finally ready to begin taking our Roses another step.
For the last year or so many friends, customers and family suggested it would be a good idea ..but my creative mood just couldn't grasp the exact concept and artistic desire to do it.
Finally when Kami asked ..it was the right moment in time and I was ready to jump in with both feet and begin a new journey and I'm so glad I did.

Kami requested her flowers be in a light lavender and my first challenge was to hand dye her flowers to a beautiful lavender. Until researching the color lavender ..I had no idea truly how many shades of lavender there are from grey lavenders, blue lavenders and pink lavenders there is actually quite an array. We tried for a sterling lavender and with time achieved it.
Her one very important sentimental request was that the name of her and her Fiance's song be included in each floral piece some way.
And she wanted the roses Dusted in the Silver German Glass Glitter that Makes our roses so sweetly unique.
I knew I wanted to add crinkled seam binding tendrils to her bouquets .. so what better than to create custom made Ribbon with the name of their song and the band at their request ..in 2 of their favorite fonts.
The Above Picture and the one just below are her finished Bridal and Maid of Honor Bouquets ..
And I'm so excited at how beautiful they turned out...

Each Boutineer ...a mere 2 inches around by 4 inches in length .. will simply adorn each gentelmens suit jacket ...simply and elegantly !
Once again their Song "You & Me" ...simply added to the flower and adding sentiment to be remembered in their many years to come.
We mimicked the bouquets ...with tendrils of crinkled seam binding ..the custom ribbon and the Beautiful Silver German Glass Glitter that will look stunning in each Mothers' hand.

They are a Truly Beautiful and Sentimental Keepsake for Years to come. And they can all be used after the wedding to adorn a Gorgeous Glass Vase ..A bedside or even Entry Table.. A reminder of that very special day ..when those 2 Special words are spoken In Love and Truth .. "I DO"
Kami is a wedding photographer ..and She's offered to share pictures of the wedding with me, which I am thrilled about. I by no means have much photographic experience ..so It will be an absolute pleasure to recieve professional photographs ..and when I do ..I'll be sure to share them all with you.
