Beautiful Bella Bride Lindsay Roland wed handsome Bryan Weisgerber on September 24, 2011 at a ceremony held at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church followed by a reception at Timarron Country Club.  We are loving these gorgeous images captured by Poppy Blossom and Chelsea Albert Photography.

 

 

Lindsay chose a classic color palette of soft ivory and khaki spruced up with hints of vivid fuchsia. I love that the gentlemen wore khaki suits in lieu of the standard black tuxes. 

She carried a classic bouquet of ivory hydrangeas, creamy Vendela roses, fluttery white lisianthus and accents of sweet freesia.  Bryan wore a boutonniere crafted from freesia as well for a coordinating look while the bridesmaids rocked bouquets made of neat textured celosia, ranunculus, hot pink garden roses and hints of light pink freesia.  The hot colors contrasted beautifully against their champagne toned gowns. 

The ceremony was short and sweet with a divine church serving as the backdrop.  I love that she gave her little flower girl a tiny bouquet of fun color in lieu of a pomander orb.  

 

 

Absolutely love these post ceremony shots with the bridal party in a ranch like setting and Lindsay's super stylish head piece. 

 

 

The reception was decked with low lying centerpieces of hot pink hydrangeas, fuchsia garden roses, deep pink celosia, adorable baby spray roses and lovely sweet geranium all designed in mercury vessels and accented with crystal embedded votives.  Lindsay chose to keep all the linens neutrally elegant and amped up her head table with a vivid pink linen for a truly stand out presentation.  Pink accented the rest of the reception including her pristine and artistic cake and a back wash of fun lighting. 

We absolutely loved working with Lindsay and she made The Most Beautiful Bride!  We wish Lindsay and Bryan the very best as they begin their life together as husband and wife.  Love this last shot that truly says it all. :)

Bella Birthday Girl: Ava's 7th Birthday Party

How time flies!  It's hard to believe its been a year since Ava had her last birthday bash and we were thrilled to create another precious event for her 7th birthday party.  Many thanks to Cesar and Tanya at Perez Photography for capturing these beautiful images.

We chose to work with a color palette of pretty pinks, girly lilac and hints of natural greens.  Her 35 little friends arrived to the party through playful balloon columns and sweet banners all greeting them to the girlish soiree.

The party was set up in a neat low lying square formation of tables draped in lilac linen and accented with mini white Chivaris.

Darling table centerpieces designed with white hydrangeas, lavender and hot pink roses and baby pink rosettes adorned each setting providing great color to the room.

The puppy theme was too CUTE starting with custom coloring books and the neatest doggy bone crayola sets.

Placed within the center of the tables was the most charming floral pup we nicknamed "Bella".  We then designed a lush border of vivid toned flora at the base to complete the room focal piece.

A puppy pet shop was also set up for the invited little ones to adopt and customize their plush new friends.  Too CUTE!

And of course what would a birthday party be without a fabulous cake!

Such a great and sweet fete!  We were thrilled to work with Ava and her family and cannot wait for her next bash!

Happy Planning!

Brides of North Texas Fall/Winter 2011 Tablescape

The fabulous gals at Brides of North Texas recently released their fabulous Fall/Winter 2011 issue full of so many yum photos and ideas.  We always love working with their team and especially loved creating our tablescape for the current issue.  Inspired by all things vintage, soft and frilly, we took advantage of peony season and decked out an aged wooden table with a doily lace runner, antique milk glassware and charming aged patina vessels.  The shoot took place at one of our favorite clients' home which really completed the fabulous look!  Many thanks to Perez Photography, Wisteria, Imaj Design, Romano's Bakery, Stanley Korshak, Troy Richard Salon, Hakim Sons Films and our gorgeous model Hailey for helping it all come to life!

Bella Bride: Lisa Ide & Jason Henning

Lisa Ide and Jason Henning's beautiful spring wedding was recently featured on one of our favorite wedding sites, Style Me Pretty.  What a wedding it was indeed!  The elegant affair took place at Lisa's parents' ranch located in Aubrey, TX and was full of so many personal touches provided by our style savvy bride.  Having planned a bulk of the wedding via phone and email, we were thrilled with the outcome as seen with these gorgeous images from Stacy Reeves Photography. 

Lisa chose a classic palette of all ivory and white floral mixed with rustic textures for a an elegant spin on a ranch themed wedding.  She wed under a cluster of majestic trees laden crystal chandeliers and suspended candles with soft textured bouquets of ivory hydrangeas, garden roses and sweet stock all nestled within birch wrapped cones.   An added special treat was having Lisa's mom ordain the ceremony.

After the ceremony, guests retreated to a tented dinner where low lying arrangements of all white/ivory floral wrapped with textured birch shavings were showcased atop aged wooden rectangular tables.

In lieu of a guest book, guests signed varying mini stones that would be later placed in the couple's garden.  As an added treat, guests were given vintage broaches for the ladies and unique cuff links for the gentlemen.  Pashminas were also on hand for the cool April night breeze.

I love how Lisa let her bridesmaids pick their own black dresses and provided a custom "Lisa-tini" for close family and friends to relish the yummy flavor.

We loved everything about this wedding and were thrilled to have it featured on such a prominent website.  Congratulations Lisa and Jason and thanks for being such a fun and inspiring couple!

Bella Bride: Elizabeth Cline & Ramon Reza

Happy Summer Everyone!  Here at Bella Flora, we are fortunate enough to meet so many cool and unique brides that really embody their own style, taste and charm.  While we love working on all aspects of the wedding day (from bouquets to stellar receptions), sometimes we meet the ever so crafty DIY bride that can really pull it together with just a little help from us.  Case in point, Elizabeth Cline.  She wed Ramon Reza this spring with a ceremony held at Perkins Chapel and a pretty groovy reception held at her parents home.  Below is some gorgeous imagery captured by Shipra Panosian.

Getting ready.

First looks.  Love when couples do this.  The pictures say it all!

Absolutely LOVE Elizabeth's bouquet designed with antique and ivory hydrangeas, soft pink peonies, sweet peas and neat textured ranunculus.  Some of our favorite blooms!

Navy and soft blush done so well by the bridesmaids and groomsmen.  Love the DIY Just married sign.

The ceremony was equally eloquently simple using pew markers designed with ivory garden roses and blush peonies.

Guests headed to Elizabeth's parents house after the ceremony where the DIY really was in full swing.  Elizabeth and her family hosted the fete and used existing furniture for lounge seating, family owned candelabras & tea cups for centerpieces and lots of family made creations, including a pretty nifty photobooth.   The large band served as a cool backdrop behind the family pool.  Pretty cool set up!

Being the family home, there was no set time  to stop the party and this crowd took full advantage of it.  Talk about a "house party!".

Awesomeness!  Love the Dr. Pepper trail!  Congrats Elizabeth and Ramon!  You guys sure can throw a party!
