Tara and James’ wedding is the perfect exhibit of total trust within artistic collaboration — she is an incredible stationery designer and paper maker, and had a chic vision for the wedding. I was so thrilled to bring it to life.
The vision was an airy, clean, natural feeling design with minimal yet elevated details. I chose limited floral ingredients, and Tara requested chic, unfussy arrangements. The overall vibe was structured yet unstructured, and it was idyllic.
There’s a few things that you can do to immediately get me on board with your wedding: plan for a great location (hello to the natural beauty of Clear Lake!), ask for some stellar florals (an over the top ceremony design? yes, please!), and throw in the challenge of logistics to get me excited (more on that below!).
Alex and Travis’s destination wedding at Elkhorn Manor (Clear Lake) was the perfect combination of all of the above.
Let’s get into it!

Tori has a really classic style, and we wanted to meet it with modern sensibility — so a crisp palette of black and white was chosen, with warm taupes and mixed greens added.

My vision was something chic, sculptural, and heavily influenced by the use of a single type of flower (in this case, white lilies). The slatted wood wall in the mezzanine area of The Leaf was absolute perfect backdrop for the strong lines I wanted to create.
Read MoreBeing part of Sarah and Scott’s moody, fashion-forward wedding at the Fort Garry Hotel last fall was such a delight.
The flowers were not a huge priority for her — and while most of my couples do put a large emphasis on their florals, I know that many couples out there are in the same place as Sarah! And that’s totally, totally fine.
So instead of doing florals all over the place, we kept a close eye on their budget and chose multi-purpose pieces that would highlight a few key areas, and let Sarah’s fashion be the central design moment.
