We were highlighted yesterday in Junebug’s Real Weddings for Rae & Rob’s wedding at SoDo Park.  We really enjoyed working with the couple as well as the very talented event planner, Lisa Chambers of Chambers and Company and absolutely love the photos by Laurel McConnell!  Also, stay tuned for some awesome photos of our floral work for this wedding coming very soon!

Wedding Team:

At willow and bloom, one of the things we pride ourselves on is taking the style of our couples and interpreting it into gorgeous florals that are an expression of who they are.

This past weekend we had two weddings that could not have been more different.  Lola and Dan were married at the beautiful Treehouse Point and Mara and Jason at Bell Harbor with their reception at the World Trade Center.  Both weddings were very beautiful and really captured the style of our lovely couples.

Lola and Dan wanted wedding flowers in tones of lavender, whites and greens that complemented the organic and natural look of the forest around them.  We took their vision and created designs from mini calla lilies, dusty miller, fragrant stock, lush ranunculus, fresh lavender and rosemary and accented these blooms with local fern.  For the centerpieces, we sourced the coolest pots which had a crackled glaze and moss accents…perfect for their style!

Here are some photos we took during setup at Treehouse Point.  Did you know that these treehouses are actually really beautiful on the inside and they even have a luxurious tent set-up for those wanting to sleep outdoors?  So fun!

Mara and Jason wanted a contemporary wedding in deep reds, blacks and whites.  This is one of those color palettes that can be tricky to translate into lush florals without the look appearing too harsh, but we really like how these turned out and the pop of red was actually ideal for the concrete and glass landscape of the skyscrapers and the blue waters of Elliot Bay in the background.

The bride’s bouquet was made from three different types and shades of red roses and accented with black mini calla lilies and the bridesmaids’ bouquets were in shades of all whites.  We finished the stems with luxurious ivory ribbon and they were lovely.

Mara and Jason are in Venice as we speak and they’re probably eating their fair share of pasta and the world’s best gelato!  Buona fortuna to you both!

This upcoming weekend we have three different weddings that also couldn’t be more drastically different so tune in for our next post to see the images of our “Bold Hipster”, “Sunset and Crystals”, and “Northwest Contemporary” weddings!
