There are so many things that I love about weddings – the dresses, the decor, the tiniest details – the obvious things.  But more than that, what makes a wedding incredible to me, is when there are 2 people so in love that they dont even see anyone else in the room.  Casey and Nate are those two people.  Kind and loving and so sweet – the way that Nate looks at Casey and the way that makes Casey grin – that, my friends, is why I love what I do.  Enjoy these beautiful photos from Brinton Studios of this lovely March Devils Thumb Ranch wedding.

Stunning, elegant and red red red!  We adored working on Kathy and Eric’s winter wedding at Devils Thumb.  Brinton Studios took these gorgeous photographs and Devils Thumb Ranch absolutely rocked another phenomenal wedding!

A few of the personal details for you -  
Our bride Kathy is the Kathy Lee from The Lewis and Floorwax show on the Fox Radio in Denver, Chancy Williams and Younger Brothers Band absolutely rocked the Ranch (and we may be their new superfans!), the lovely Bride and Groom had Lights (Journey cover band) play the rehearsal dinner (how fun is that?) and in the ceremony – possibly my new favorite tradition - Kathy and Eric each wrote a love letter to one another the week before the wedding and had a friend read it during the ceremony.    Silver fortune cookies served as escort cards and homemade dumplings were given out at the end of the evening as gifts.

Kathy and Eric, we wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.

I loved this wedding.  I love any bride who emails me to check in while on a surf trip in Nicaragua (I have to say – that was a first!).  To any groom who is adorable as his fiance and I have a late night phone call discussing linen options (while we surf the web together) during the final game of the Stanley Cup – I raise my hat to you.  It was an honor to create the floral design and serve as the day-of coordinator for this beatiful late August wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch.  And Paige Elizabeth absolutely knocked our socks off with these pictures (check out the one of Lindsey and Dave slow dancing under the lights on the deck – stunning).

For Lindsey and Dave, we created a custom graphic to use throughout the day.  It found its way onto the invitations, on the website, on the program, etc so it only made sense to create a life sized version of it as well!  The photos below are absolute perfection – the moment the Lindsey and Dave saw each other for the first time.

For the floral design, we selected a color palatte of green, blue and purple and created the bouquets out of cymbidium orchids, hydrangea, mokara orchids, iris and spray roses.  A huge basket of pashminas was set out  for the guests during cocktail hour and by dusk  nearly every woman at the wedding had one wrapped around her shoulders.  Instead of traditional centerpieces – yummy cakes, pies and brownies from Whole Foods were placed on each table.  Table names – Economist Covers (a great choice for any couple who meets and falls in love in business school).  Since the tables were full with desserts (as well as family style dinner)  Pick Me! Flowers simply hung floral chandeliers from the beams in the barn.

Lindsey and Dave, thank you for trusing Pick Me Floral and Events with the design and coordination of your wedding.  I cant wait to hear how you two take the world by storm.  I know whatever you two do – it will be BIG!

Katie and Troy got married on one of the beautiful days of August at the top of Winter Park Resort at Sunspot.   Not only did this amazing couple have a phenonimal wedding (and we were lucky enough to do Troy and Katie’s day-of wedding coordination and flowers) on the top of the world, the week before the wedding they moved to Colorado!  I had such a great time working with these two and the lovely Autumn Burke of Autumn Burke Photography.  A great wedding and a bunch of new friends out of the deal . . .

Small wedding – ok.  Middle of the week – sure.  One of the  … most  . . . fun couples on the planet – without a doubt.  Chris and Tanja’s August wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch was a hoot.  And kudos to any bride and groom who can plan a wedding and move across the country – in the same week.  Enjoy these beautiful images from our friend Karina Heneghan!

Rami got to have so much fun with the design of this Kings Table.  Potted plants and succulents were mixed with fresh floral arrangements made from blue hydrangeas, purple lisianthus, cosmos, aster and bells of Ireland.  For height we added some manzanita branches and for a lush feeling at the bottom, we ran green garland mixed with candles.  Each table setting was accented with a sprig of lavender and rosemary.

Now – I am not saying that our weddings are more fun than other peoples – but we do seem to attract those who dance . . .and those who do fan kicks.  The Fever played all night and this crowd never stopped dancing!

Thank you again to Tanja and Chris for remembering that this is FUN!  Check out Karina’s Facebook page for the rest of these pictures (and lots more dancing and photobooth silliness!)

I loved this wedding.  Fun, sassy and full of happy fun sunflowers.  Ashley and Kyle were up to create a beautiful mountain wedding but with a quirky twist.  Building off of a yellow and green theme – we were able to create a floral design that focused on textures.  The end result was a mix of sunflowers, daisies, mums, oncidium orchids, cymbidium orchids and billy balls.  I absolutely LOVED it.

We were thrilled to work with Jason G Photography (beautiful work!)  Wildhorse Inn (yummy and gorgeous) and Gabby from Save the Date Events (fantastic!) on this gorgeous day.  Ashley and Kyle, thank you for being fun and using polka dots!

JoAnn and Doug’s wedding was quite the high flying affair.  Something along the lines of 13,500 above sea level (give or take, this couple exchanged their wedding vows sailing over the Fraser Valley.  Rami was lucky enough to create this very early morning (6:45 in the AM !!)  event.

JoAnn and Doug, thanks for taking a leap of faith and booking us – site unseen.  Thank you for being fun and trying something new.  Thanks for hiring CR and Tiffany (of Brinton Studios Photography)!!  We were honored to be a part of your big day and we wish you a lifetime of love.
