Category Archives: Uncategorized This past weekend I had the pleasure of working with Mandy Tallent and Andy Wheeler. When I met with Mandy and her family back in January, her personality was bigger than life. Mandy loved flowers, she loves color which matches her beautiful sunny disposition and she wanted the wedding of a lifetime. The Waters Mill...  Last night wedding was a fairtytale wedding come true. When I met with my bride back in January, she expressed to me how much she loves Disney, fairies and secret gardens. That was the basis of our design. The wedding had many details and if you follow my blogs, you know it’s the details that make the wedding over the top. The centerpieces were at least 4 feet tall (maybe more). They were extraordinary. Our floral designer really captured the Secret Garden theme with these elegant masterpieces. I made pink water beads and mixed with ice crystals which allowed the centerpieces to look like Cotton Candy. Inside the vases are pink led lights to give a pinkish glow. To create the secret garden, I used a Moss Crush Overlay which were simply amazing. It was the perfect match with the centerpieces.

The cake was then adorned with edible snails, butterflies and sugar flowers. To complete the look, we placed the cake on a 16 inch freshly cut tree stump. It was simply amazing.

I will blog about this wedding sometime this weekend. It was amazing! What does cotton, magnolia, cherry blossoms and pink water beads all have in common. http://lockerz.com/s/102184396 This week’s wedding. Looking forward to this week’s design. When I met with the bride, she wanted a fairytale wedding with Southern elements. Can’t wait to see the final result. Watch for pictures!  With gas prices soaring past record highs in the United States and the floods of the Mississippi River, the rising food costs is certainly on my mind. At Waters Mill, we are doing everything possible to try to keep our customers from feeling the pain in our prices but I will admit it is a... |
