Chantelle & Sebastian 4.26.08

Chantelle and Sebastian were married in April at the Hanson Place in Sumner. I had never worked at this venue before. It doesn’t look like much from the street, but it is surprisingly beautiful inside. Chantelle had chosen a cinderella theme with white, turquoise, and tiffany blue for her colors.

The bridesmaids bouquets were made up of white roses, white stock, white tulips, blue delphinium and loops of lily grass.

When I deliver flowers for a wedding, I label all of the personal flowers (bouquets, corsages & boutonnieres) to make it really easy to distribute them so that I don’t have to bother the bride to find out what goes to which person. Bouquets are delivered in vases to make it easy to display them at the reception.

Chantelle’s bouquet had a slightly cascading shape and was made up of white roses, white oriental lilies, white stock, blue delphinium, grape hyacinth, loops of lily grass and rhinestone accents.

Congratulations Chantelle and Sebastian!
