Jill McAdaragh & Stephen Timlin

We promised you images of a very unusual bridal bouquet... well, here it is, along with images from the reception at JW Marriott.  These photos were taken by me, either with my Nikon or the new iPhone 4.

Jill's bouquet had no flowers in it, rather, she opted for her favorite plant --succulents!  We used Aeonium, Echeverria and sedums for the bouquet.  Her bridesmaids were in true Teal dresses, so we added an accent of Teal colored pins for a splash of color - something she didn't expect. 

Her reception was equally as innovative.. she wanted monobotanic (one plant/variety) and monocromatic.. so tables had a grouping of glass vases, each with one type of flower... surrounded by frosted votives.  The head table was very grand... use of silver on silver.   Cake table was covered in lace panels provided by mother of the groom and the piano (used as sign in) was also covered with lace panels.... always a nice touch.

Jill & Stephen August 21, 2010

This weekend finds us preparing the florals for Jill McAdaragh & Stephen Timlin.  Stephen's family is hosting the rehearsal dinner at The City Club of Buckhead on Friday evening.  Jill & Stephen will exchange vows Saturday at the beautiful Peachtree Road United Methodist Church, and host the reception at the JW Marriott at Lenox Square.

Jill has chosen to carry a bouquet that is not really floral... she really loves the archetectural nature of succulents.  Her bridal bouquet will be primarily various succulents... should be gorgeous..  I will post photos once it is designed.  Her attendents will carry green & white bouquets.

Congratulations to you both Jill & Stephen... we'll see you Saturday!!

Locks of Love

For those of you who know me and have seen my hair grow (??) the last 3 years, it wasn't something to recapture youth or for vanity... but simply:
