Fresh. Summery. Soft.

Here's some pictures from a lovely wedding we designed last summer at the Grand Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.  We wanted the arrangements to have a soft-styled, weeping look so we used one of my favorite foliages - maidenhair fern.  We combined the maidenhair fern with "Sweet Unique" roses, green hydrangea, white football mums, pink lisianthus, calcynia, queen anne's lace and green hanging amaranthus.  The end result were these romantic, lush arrangements. 

We chose to have half of the centerpieces raised on pedestals and half of the centerpieces in pedestal urns.  Although the reception took place in the Evergreen Ballroom where the ceilings are lower than a traditional ballroom,  the raised centerpieces still added that "wow" factor when guests entered the room.  Adding to the visual impact of the room were the gorgeous apple green satin linens with a gold stripe overlay and the mahogany chiavari chairs.  What a striking combination!
