Colorado Mountain Wedding

I loved designing the flowers for this fun and spunky bride. She chose a wildflower theme with locally grown flowers and a touch of whimsy. There were spots of hot pink everywhere and who doesn't love hot pink? Rachel Hagen of Talia Events was the wedding planner, Marilee Photography shot the pics. Shamane of Shamane's Bake shoppe designed the cake. Flowers - yeah, me! What a great team!

Evel Kneivel Birthday Cake- Now That's a Cake!

How's this for a birthday cake! Last weekend I surprised my husband with an Evel Kneivel themed birthday cake. Pastry Chef, Shamane of Shamane's Bake Shoppe created this spectacular cake. My husband, a lifetime Evel Kneivel loving fan, absolutely loved it. When the candles were lit and 90 plus people sang "Happy Birthday," it was just short of a heart attack!

Our Dream Wedding Reception

Last week we were married. This week, we held our wedding reception at Lone Hawk Farms in Longmont, Colorado. It was lovely. All of our family and friends together under one roof was a gift in and of itself! The beautiful, restored barn at Lone Hawk was filled with twinkling lanterns set atop pale blue tablecloths. Twiggy nests filled with Italian Jordan almonds complimented the natural setting. Our dear friend Paul, from Boulder's Bombay Bistro served up platters of delicious Italian fare. Shamane from Shamane's bake shoppe created two magnificent cakes for us, a wedding cake and a birthday cake for my dear husband, decorated in true Evil Knievel style. His life-time hero. Tim, from Art of the Flower designed the abundance of flowers. Just my style, a little bit country, a little bit shabby chic.
Cee, from the Thompson House Inn and Tea Room served a lovely hot tea for us. Rachel from Talia Events helped keep everything on schedule and my dear friends Lynne and Laura took care of the rest. It was spectacular. Better than I could have ever imagined. A milllion thanks to all!
