Matt and Amanda's Spring Wedding at Cielo's Garden

Early June is amazing time for flowers - all of your favourites are available. Peonies, tulips, iris - plus, it's the perfect time to indulge in a palette of pastels! Matt and Amanda's wedding at Cielo's Garden was in early June on one of the most lovely days imaginable.

I loved working with Amanda on her flowers. She let me play with her pastel palette, so we used the most amazing soft pink hydrangea, light pink peonies, butter yellow stock, lavender stock and freesia, white and yellow iris, and delicious Queen Anne's Lace. I also tucked in Solomon's Seal and eucalyptus foliage. 

I love these photos from Rachwal Photography!

I had been looking forward to this ceremony design for months. Amanda was open to whatever I suggested, and I had been wanting to suspend a garland from the open ceiling of Cielo's chapel for a long time. I added in a floral spotlight in the same pastel tones in her bouquet, and later I found out that throughout the ceremony, butterflies were attracted to the flowers. Isn't that beautiful?

The long farm tables at the reception were laid with Italian Ruscus stems, with loose blooms tucked in throughout the length of the tables. I loved the taper candles and other accents that Amanda selected.
