Posted Notes: To Honor the MOB and MOG this upcoming Mother's Day

One of my favorite things about a wedding (sad as this may sound ) is the ability to have gift ideas for a couple of years. The first year you are giving out engagement pictures, the planning year you are prepping the important mama’s with things for the festivities, and the first year into marriage you can give the gift of framed memories. It’s pretty amazing when you know what you want to do.

In honor of next week and our mother hens, I wanted to share a few great gift ideas with our current bride-to-be audience.

engagement story: amyleigh and danny

Boy meets girl. Girl and boy fall in love. Boy asks girl for her hand with a little help from a friend name Big Steve….the dog

This charming couple were getting ready for dinner plans and Danny let Amyleigh know Big Steve ( their ever growing bull mastiff) was at a new beach location with a friend where dogs were welcomed. Obviously the news came as a huge relief to Amyleigh to have babysitting help as she continued getting dressed, but when the time came to leave for dinner, Danny announced that Big Steve needed to be retrieved. As they made their way out to the beach, Amyleigh saw something hanging on the pups neck. When Big Steve started galloping towards Amyleigh, she was able to read the signs’ lettering that said “Mom will you marry Dad?” with red daisies tied to ends. The only thing that could possibly make this moment more adorable was the fact that Danny hired a photographer, Ben Williams, to capture everything.    

Big Steve

Needless to say Miss Amyleigh said yes to the proposal and their Save the Date will go down in my books as a top favorite. I absolutely love when a couples personality and life shine through in their wedding festivities and I can guarantee that the big day will be no different that the proposal. Congratulations to Amyleigh and Danny and can’t wait for November!

a sweet treat

 Recently Taylor was approached to decorate with a out of the ordinary inspiration. The client was surprising a dear friend with a theme straight out of the taste buds….Candy!

With the idea of incorporating floral design and the birthday girl’s love of sweets, Taylor created eight candy cake centerpieces for each of the tables along with a gorgeous apothecary container display full of treats. The linens were done with festive turquoise and purple ribbons tying off the bubble gum pink napkins and each had a tucked in swirl sucker to drool over. Since the party was adult range, we filled jars with rock candy to include in the cocktails. We loved the opportunity to do something unique like this and so grateful to see  people exploring their passions as ways to throw a good party. Congrats Taylor!
