a party for a princess, a lucky one at that.





oh my, i have been so busy designing for this weekend's princess party. it was honestly a party fit for a king, complete with a castle, suits of armor, glass slippers, and an abundance of tiaras. (if i had the guts to take on a tattoo, it would be a tiara, a grand one at that.) it was lovely fun. my favorite wedding and event planner, nicole mulvany from rsvp shindig called me up on this one. when nicole calls, expect grand.

the house was bedecked inside and out. uplit outside with pink lights. never too much pink. i decorated the front door with floral tiaras, the tables with 6" squares of heavenly eufloria roses, cabbage, hydrangea and lisianthus, topped off with what else, tiaras. i even decorated the glass slippers with flowers. yum.

dave barnes from scenographics denver created the incredible fairytale castle, royal pendants, and the suits of armour complete with pink plumage.

food was provided by the fabulous whirled peas catering co. they also sculpted a castle made from bread, baquettes and waffle cones. (which the family dog guarded with her life.)

it truly was a masterpiece of a party.

Winter White Wedding in Denver Colorado


Just a quick pick from yesterday's wedding at the beautiful Valley Country Club in south Denver. Wedding colors were white on white and icy blue. Perfect for a winter wedding. The garden roses were grown in California and smelled heavenly. Loved working with Nicole Mulvany from RSVP Shindig.

The Painted Primrose is Featured in The Knot!



Last summer I designed over 25 flower arrangements for a party sponsored by the Knot. It was located in Denver at the hip and chic Theorie. I worked with my favorite Denver wedding planner Nicole Mulvany from RSVP Shindig. It was a blast. The Knot has featured the party in their current Colorado issue. Enjoy!

A Painted Primrose Wedding with Denver's RSVP Shindig




I love working with Nicole Mulvany from Denver's RSVP Shindig. Nicole is an amazing wedding planner. Calm, cool, collect and extremely organized. I appreciate that she trusts the talents of each vendor that she hires. "She let's me do my thang!" This was an autumn mountain wedding. The bride wanted to accent both her bouquet and the groom's boutonniere with pine cones. Nice touch. Visit Nicoles blog at http://rsvpshindig.livejournal.com/
