YOU’RE INVITED – GARDEN STYLE PARTY

Happy Monday Guys….I hope you all had a wonderful weekend….mine was busy as usual….lots of fun floral shoots coming up at the cafe for 2012, so my weekends have been filled with flowers, models and tons of details….and speaking of fun floral shoots….I have two gorgeous shoots to share with you today…the first one was sent over by Vicki Grafton of Vicki Grafton Photography and Vicki was also the stylist for the shoot…not only is Vicki an AMAZING photographer, she is also the lead stylist and owner of My Simple Details….yes, Vicki ROCKS!!….. and all the beautiful florals were designed by our ‘floral sister’, Holly of Holly Heider Chapple Flowers…Holly’s flowers are always so beautiful, so, you know you are in for lots of prettiness when Vicki and Holly team up…and as always, they have done it again…a gorgeous ‘garden themed’ shoot… Enjoy!!

Vicki shares a little info with us…‘Holly invited me over to do a small styled garden shoot with her daughters new antique desk as inspiration. To create a eclectic mix of old an new, I brought and old german cigar press and used bright modern white plates with textured pink napkins and small floral arrangements in silver mercury votives that could serve as favors for this garden style event.

Megan, the model, wore a short embroidered cream dress to add to the relaxed informal garden feel of the shoot. We also used a mix of well worn wood chairs that showed the many paint colors they had over the years and a wood bench to mix up the look of the intimate table.

The unique bouquet was created with a magnolia pod straight from the tree, cafe au lait dahlias, pink ohara cabbage roses, white ohara cabbage roses, sahara roses, green hydrangea from the garden, dusty miller, nandina foliages and clematis vine.’

Vicki and Holly, thank you ladies so much for sharing this lovely shoot with us today……Holly, the desk was so perfect for your inspiration…I love it and of course the florals are always so beautiful…..check back later guys for more floral goodness….you don’t want to miss it!!
