Lace is the new black and how leonardo dicaprio changed my life..

swoon. thank you leonardo for being obsessed with daisy. you changed my life. just when I couldn't bear to look at another photo of the ruched wedding dress with rhinestone brooch, I was swept off my feet. I shall never be the same again. every bride that I have booked for 2014, I mean every single bride has been influenced by this movie. every dress is romantic, timeless and just plain lovely.

lace, lace, and lace.

goodbye wildflower bouquets. ugh. (toss those into the boulder creek.) hello garden roses, hydrangea, peonies, café au lait dahlias and fluffy ranunculus. I love you. you are what my dreams are made of.

in love with flowers and lace, and of coarse vera wang dresses,
Sarah

Amanda and Chris Got Hitched!

Our very first wedding of the season, roses and peonies, ooh, lala! The ceremony and reception both took place at Longmont's Lone Hawk Farm. We decorated the wooden gazebo with the last of the season's cherry blossoms. We hung wire bird cages, filled with flowers and hanging foliage from the surrounding trees. Tables were adorned with antique ball jars spilling with wide opening peonies and silvery dusty miller. Shamane baked the fab cupcakes. A lovely day indeed.

peonies in december!!

I have gorgeous peonies in the shop this week. Direct from Holland. They are perfectly priced as well. I think you need some!!!!

Denver Botanic Gardens

So tell me, what do you think a florist does on his/her day off? Well, this florist visits the Denver Botanic Garden. The experience rejuvenates my soul! Yesterday was a beautiful day at the gardens. The peonies were blooming! Peonies-my most favorite flower in the entire world. It was truly a scratch n sniff experience with the lilac and iris in full bloom. I love their gift shop! Their buyer has the most exquisite taste. I had a bit of a picnic in the japanese garden. Me and my pb&j. I am blessed!

It's Peony Season! (finally)

Peony season is my favorite time of year. I buy as many stems as I can. My favorite is the light pink, o.k. hot pink is hot-hot-hot! Hang them upside down to dry. They last for years. Buy them from the farmer's market, buy them from your local florist, buy a plant and plant it for next year. Just buy them!!!
