A Local Bouquet in June

When Abby Higgs Photography approached me for a simple styled shoot, I was excited to make a bouquet full of local beauty for their evening at the HF Bar Ranch in Saddlestring, WY. Our late start to Summer here in Sheridan left us with an abundance of peonies showing off, along with coral bells, ox-eye daisies, chamomile, and a few other little treasures I was able to pick from neighbors’ yards and local farms.

Growing flowers on a large scale in our climate is so difficult and I always jump at the chance to play with flowers grown so close to home.

Kaylie & Gerrit planned a mountaintop ceremony and rustic-chic reception at Meadowlark Ski Lodge for their August wedding in the Big Horn Mountains.

The groom wore a three-piece charcoal suit and paisley sage-green tie while the ladies wore an assortment of dresses from David’s Bridal in Dusty Sage. The bride found her stunning Essense of Australia gown at Dora Grace Bridal and looked absolutely incredible in the graphic lace.

Buffalo, WY-based wedding Dani Jerry Photography captured the day and all the magical details. As a florist, it always makes my heart happy to see the flowers we dreamed of with clients captured in all their glory and edited in true-to-life colors.

Kaylie wanted her bouquet to feel rustic and warm, reflecting the natural beauty of our Big Horn Mountains and the wildness of Wyoming. I used a variety of eucaluptus and grevelia, bronze amaranth, finely textured calycinia, Sweet William, toffee roses, and fragrant tuberose for her bouquet.

For their reception, they utilized our bulk, DIY greenery for simple faux garland on the long tables at the lodge. Paired with rust table runners, simple pillar candles, and antlers they had the perfect look for their reception and stayed within their budget for decor.

Their wedding venue in the Big Horn Mountains came with gorgeous farm tables and rustic chairs in addition to the striking views at Meadowlark Ski Lodge. You can choose between a mountaintop ceremony with stunning vistas of the Big Horn Mountains, Lakeside beauty or the lovely deck for your ceremony.

Congratulations!

These lovebirds planned a mountaintop ceremony at Meadowlark Ski Lodge in August. They were gifted with a gloriously sunny, bluebird day (without wildfire smoke!) surrounded by their friends and loved ones.

Jewel wanted a bouquet that had a woodsy feel, full of ferns, succulents, lots of texture, and a calming feel. I used rosemary, a giant large tillandsia xerographica air plant, and silvery protea along with eucalyptus and delicate white orchids to go with her theme of dark green and silver for their August wedding colors.

They used our customizable tiny wedding packages for their wedding, splurging on the bouquet of her dreams, a boutonniere for the groom, and a special arrangement for their reception in the lodge.

July Mountain Wildflower Wedding

Lace dress, pink shirt, wildflower bouquet

Sarah and Justin were married on the shores of Paint Rock Lake in the Big Horn Mountains one stormy afternoon in July. We delivered colorful bouquets inspired by Wyoming Wildflower meadows and a collection of varied bud vases for their reception. Her ladies wore dresses in shades of pink and sparkles that let the flowers in blue, orange, yellow, and purple pop.

It was a treat to use locally grown zinnias, snapdragons, and coreopsis in addition to flowers from Colorado farms to bring in the color and texture inspired by her wildflower theme.

A Wyoming Wildflower Wedding in July

Paradise Guest Ranch
in , , ,

These two met and fell in love in the Big Horn Mountains so it was only fitting to become Mr. and Mrs. in the place where it all started. Angelica and Alec planned a laid back week-long celebration at Paradise Ranch outside of Buffalo, WY. A Whirly Girl Flowers first - they were married on a Monday afternoon in the gorgeous chapel on the ranch and partied into the evening with a gourmet meal from Bonafide Food. The entire magical day was captured by the talented Cassie Madden from Sheridan, WY.

We used the glorious early summer meadows of Wyoming as inspiration for their wildflower themed day. The groom provided delicate and intricate feathers for the boutonnieres which complimented his custom-made feather bowtie from Twin-M Design.

The groom made me 24 matching cedar boxes for these pieces. They lined the windows in the chapel for the ceremony and then moved to decorate the tables in the gazebo for dinner. We used a few pheasant feathers to bring a little extra magic to the design and I’m in love with the look!

Cheers to move adventures, more travel, and a love that endures!
