Rehearsal Dinner: Libby & Jr

Earlier this spring, we were thrilled to be working with DFW Events in creating this rustically charming rehearsal dinner for Libby and JR at The Dallas Arboretum.


Guests entered the reception through beautifully landscaped Woman's Gardens and arrived to The Historic DeGolyer House where a tented dinner awaited.

























Aged wooden tables were draped with textured burlap runners and wrought iron candelabras that elevated dreamy displays of amber candles.  Placed below were textured garlands of magnolia foliage, potted muscari, geranium, vibrunum snowballs and rich mosses.


























We love these chalk board table numbers and playful menus. Yummy southern comfort food is always a wonderful treat!


























The juxtaposed rustic and elegant place settings were so pretty and totally befitting of the outdoor garden setting.

















It was awesome that the weather that night was perfect! It totally made the event a wonderful prelude to the wedding day.

















What a fun event!  We were so happy to be a part of such a fun party.  Wishing Libby and JR the best in married life.

Bella Bride: Samantha Pulido and Mitty Jayaseelan

With holiday events in full swing, everyone is in over their heads in red, green and gold! We thought we would switch it up this week and reminisce over Samantha Pulido and Mitty Jayaseelan's enchanted wedding wonderland. The duo tied the knot April 10, 2010 at the Holy Trinity Catholic Church and continued the celebration at the Rosewood Crescent Hotel. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the cocktail hour was top notch on this magical evening. Thisbe Grace Photography did a fantastic job of capturing the tiny details throughout the day. Check out the rest of the team who assisted with Samantha and Mitty's special day. Enjoy!

























Holy Trinity Catholic Church was transformed with dramatic lighting, gorgeous candlelight and lush floral detailing for the dramatic and memorable ceremony. Tall grand candle torches were embellished with beautiful floral in soft ivories, whites, champagnes and pale blushes and created a grand and romantic setting as Samantha preluded down the aisle. A blossoming display of cascading floral framed the duo at the altar, creating a most attractive backdrop.

















Samantha's fluttery bouquet accented her gorgeous lace dress perfectly. The hand tied bouquet was designed with a lush blending of soft pink garden roses and soft pink Holland peonies with accents of lacey foliage.



















































The youngest flower girl was given a petite moss pomander ball with touches of floral. This fit in beautifully with Samantha's vision of "Mid Summer's Night Dream."

























For the cocktail hour, the Rosewood Crescent transformed into an enchanted forest, complete with a masse of suspended glowing candlelight. The overall setting of the candles created a romantic glow throughout the room.




The walls in the Garden Room were adorned with beautiful natural growing branches accented with stunning oversized blossoms that creeped up high into the walls. The wall of branches created an amazing setting that cast a beautiful silhouette of branches and exquisite shadows of blooms. 

A wishing tree table was constructed as the main focal piece to the Garden Room. The glorious, tall crystal tree was embellished with interesting free-flowing botanical floral and accented with fluffy hydrangea, garden roses, peonies, French tulips. blossoming cherry blossoms and orchids at the base. 

A Mariachi band played during the cocktail hour, providing lively background music. 

























A unique escort card wall was embellished from natural boxwood garlands that created a pretty lattice design that framed the entrance to the ballroom. Pretty floral and guest cards were displayed.



























Guests were in awe as they walked into the dining room and were greeted by a warm welcome of natural foliages, candlelight and elegant and sophisticated floral. A gorgeous display of white textiles was suspended from the ceiling to create a soft beautiful canopy disguising the ceiling above.

















One grand central head table was complimented by two side rectangle tables placed near the dance floor. A clean procession of tall glass vessels housed tall gorgeous blossoms of cherry that gave great height to the room and added a great volume of color. Multiple collections of vessels were placed down the center of the table, resembling a beautiful textural runner of seasonal blossoms.


























Square tables were also used to contribute to the unique setting. A tall abundant free-form arrangement designed with an iron grand seven-branch candelabra adorned these tables.







A collection of suspended speciality chandeliers designed with natural foliage created a captivating and dreamy look. The wonderfully organic display provided the most romantic and exceptional sparkling glow overhead for guests. 

The first dance as Mr. and Mrs. Jayaseelan

Mexican folkloric dancers and Indian dancers took the dance floor to give homage to the bride and groom's heritage. 


























The bride's cake was adorned with a cascade of stunning fluttery blooms of pink peonies placed down the front side of the cake and spilling down onto the table.

























Mini cakes presented on a green detail scroll print plate were adorned with fluttery ranunculus blooms in a soft pink tone.

The dessert station was filled with wonderful Mexican and Indian pastries displayed in the foyer of the ballroom. 



Bella Flora was delighted to be a part of this enchanted wedding. Congratulations Samantha and Mitty!

Bella Bride: Shannon Quinn and Ryan Slack

As fall approaches and cool breezes come in, our Bella Brides are enjoying the nice weather and a break from those scorching temps! Now is the time to enjoy a perfect outdoor wedding, and Shannon Quinn and Ryan Slack knew just the place-- White Oaks Ranch in Pilot Point, TX. This ranch was the perfect setting to incorporate the natural elements Shannon wanted on her big day. Shannon's soft color palette of whites, creams, and chocolate browns was fitting at the rustic ranch. The beautiful October day was coordinated by the talented Mary Frances Hurt at DFW Events and captured by the ever so fabulous team at Joseph Mark Photography.




Beautiful floral chandeliers and romantic glass lanterns were suspended from the 500-year-old tree creating an elegant glistening backdrop for the bride and groom. 




Natural elements were incorporated into every element of the big day. Shannon's beautiful bouquet was designed in free form with a fluttery display of lush garden roses, natural parrot florets and pristine lily of the valley.

Guests were given flip flops to wear to the ceremony so their heels wouldn't get stuck in the grass. What a cute touch!



A perfect Texas evening!




After the ceremony guests moved to the pavilion where they enjoyed decadent decor, fantastic food, and terrific tunes!

Birch wood shavings accented the table arrangements, adding to the rustic ambiance. 

The mantle was adorned with a beautiful collection of candlelight to create a soft glow to the rustic mantle. The cross was embellished with a mass display of floral in whites and ivories to create a beautiful backdrop to the cake. 

The natural white birch cake plateau was crafted for the bride's cake to sit on and complement the decor. 

A gorgeous branchy pattern was projected on the dance floor. 






Blueberry lemonade in Mason jars were the perfect beverages to quench guests' thirst. 





A fairy tale exit for Mr. and Mrs. Slack. 

What a beautiful night! Thanks Shannon and Ryan for letting us be a part of your special day!
