Taylor and Griffin
The Admiral’s House is one of the most quintessential Seattle venues. It overlooks Elliot Bay high up on a hill in the Magnolia neighborhood. Lush gardens lined with Hydrangea and water views make this a must see venue. Taylor and Griffin’s wedding was a classic white and green wedding with lush florals and beautiful details. We paired seasonal August flowers like Dahlias, Lisianthus, Scabiosa, and Garden Roses with Baptisia, Raspberry and Geranium foliage. There’s just something about a white and green wedding at The Admiral’s House, you can’t go wrong!

So, so much love for these two!

My baby sister Carigan and her wonderful husband Tucker did the damn thing! It was so much fun to design their Moonrise Kingdom inspired wedding. We used Smokebush, Mums, Dahlias, Marigolds, Roses, Delphinium, Allium and other seasonal flowers to create an overgrown wild flower vibe. My team lead set up so I could enjoy the day, and they did such a wonderful job! I’ll never forget my sisters face seeing her ceremony set up for the first time.
I love you guys!

Alex and Fletcher’s Seattle Tennis Club wedding was a highlight of 2021. Their love for one another was magical to witness, so much joy and laughter throughout their day. It was truly contagious. For their floral design, we blended neutral tones with shades of mustard, wine and orange to make their late Summer wedding really pop. The grounds at the Tennis Club were in full bloom, accenting their decor and flowers perfectly. A true dream team of vendors brought this wedding to life.
