Still one of my most memorable wedding flower experiences. I was able to work with a few of the most amazing wedding vendors out there, this out of this world amazing couple, and at one of the best industrial chic venues in Portland, Oregon. Plus it was the first time ever my work was published!
From the start this Bride knew she wanted her bridal bouquet to be free flowing and full of olive branches, eucalyptus and white/cream blooms. Something very classic that would be beautiful all day
