Featured Wedding : Kristin & Donald

Such a sweet couple! We had the absolute pleasure of designing wedding flowers for Kristin & Donald on July 2nd. I asked Kristin a few questions about her wedding, and her experience working with Paisley Petals. Enjoy! All photos courtesy of Streamside Photography 

Bride and Groom: Kristin and Donald Sims

Wedding Date: July 2, 2011

Vendors: Venue: Sanders Mansion in Auburn WA

Photographer: Streamside Photography in Puyallup WA

Caterer: Occasions catering in Olympia WA

DJ: Emcee Entertainment in Renton WA

Kristin’s Bouquet: Garden roses, pink hydrangea, pink freesia, orange mini callas, orange spray roses, stephanotis with rhinestones, lady’s mantle, and green dendrobium orchids.

What was your favorite moment(s) of our wedding day: We don’t really have a favorite moment. They were all favorite moments for us. Donald seeing Kristin walk down the aisle Putting on my wedding dress Getting my hair done with all the girls Walking down the aisle and seeing Donald putting our rings on First kiss taking our picture in our photo booth smashing cake in our faces first dance seeing so many family and friends we had not seen in a while getting married leaving down an aisle of sparklers and taking a ride in a rolls royce seeing all of our hard work of planning and designing finally come to life and have it be so beautiful.

ld’s Boutonniere: Orange mini calla, hot pink spray rose and green hypericum berries.

Your best advice for engaged couples? Be organized, patient and try not to procrastinate. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Your wedding day may not go as planned but in the end you will be married to the love of your life.


What are you up to now? Now that the honeymoon is over we are both back to work and trying to get back to some normalcy. We are also reminiscing about and looking at pictures of our wedding day and wishing we could do it again (without all the planning and the cost! :)) Your thoughts on working with Paisley Petals? Paula was one of the nicest and most professional people you could work with. She would always return my emails within a day if not hours even when she was busy. She takes the time to get to know you to see your true vision for your day. She was able to create beautiful arrangements for our wedding. She took our ideas and turned them into a masterpiece that we truly loved. We would highly recommend Paisley Petals for your wedding.
