Kelsey + Zack's Chic & Contemporary Wedding at The Overture Center for the Arts, Muted hues with a pop of cafe latte roses
From the moment I met Kelsey and Zack for our consultation, I knew their entire wedding day was going to turn out to be complete magic. They had such great energy and had total trust in the floral design process. It’s SUPER important that our clients trust our experience and knowledge of flowers so that we are able to do what we do best — to make sure their wedding turns out just as they imagined.
The couple wanted a chic and minimalistic design approach with a neutral and muted color palette. We added in a pop of an earthy-colored rose to elevate the designs and provide some extra contrast. Below is a list of the flowers that we used throughout:
Focal Flowers: Cafe Latte Rose, Ranunculus, Quicksand Rose, Playa Blanca Rose
Gesture Flowers: Campanula, Lisianthus, Carnation, Snapdragon, Spirea, Stock
Filler/ Foliage: Blueberry Bush, Gypsophila, Variegated Pittosporum, Leather Leaf, Smilax

Romantic Garden Wedding at the Royal Palms Resort
Melissa and Andrew were looking to have a romantic garden-style wedding in Scottsdale, AZ. They chose to get married at the Royal Palms Resort & Spa, which couldn’t have been a better choice since it would be guaranteed they would be surrounded by lush greenery in every direction. When it came to floral and color choices, Melissa simply shared that they really wanted to incorporate mauve tones. We suggested to add a pop of a gold or mustard to really make the arrangements and bouquets pop against all of the greenery.
When it came to her ceremony decor, Melissa didn’t have much of a vision except that she really wanted to see twinkle lights and geo lanterns used. So we constructed a suspended design filled with bay laurel and tree fern, a variety of florals, and of course, twinkle lights and custom-made paper geo lanterns. It definitely added to that romantic, garden vibe that they wanted to see.
I have to say that Melissa and Andrew were such a pleasure to work with and the ideal client to have. When someone has so much trust in a florist, it truly helps us thrive and deliver the best quality designs!

Simple, Peach Palette Wedding | Madison, WI
Emmalee and Jacob’s wedding this past summer at The Lageret was my first Wisconsin wedding, and I seriously cried with joy when I saw these insanely beautiful images. I am originally from Madison, Wisconsin, but have lived in Phoenix for most of my life. I spent my summer breaks with my grandparents until my late teens, so I have always felt like a piece of me has belonged there. There’s something about being in the Midwest that makes me feel content… maybe it’s all the beer, or the scereney, or the fact that people are way nicer? All true. Honestly, there are several reasons that keep me going back, so it was only a matter of time that I decided to bring a piece of 1209 into the mix.

“ “Summer, after all, is a time when wonderful things can happen to quiet people. For those few months, you’re not required to be who everyone thinks you are, that cut-grass smell in the air and the chance to dive into the deep end of a pool give you a courage you don’t have the rest of the year. You can be grateful and easy, with no eyes on you, and no past. Summer just opens the door and lets you out.”
