Elizabeth and Aaron's Detroit Athletic Club Wedding Reception

Elevated branch and orchid classic elegant white centerpiece and gold compote centerpiece by Sweet Pea Floral Design for Detroit Athletic Club wedding

 It was really a joy to create these clean classic elegant  centerpieces for Elizabeth and Aaron's Detroit Athletic Club Reception.  The extra long hawaiian orchids  added the perfect wispiness to the curly willow branches in the elevated branch centerpieces,  exactly what my nana always refers to as understated elegance.  The gold compotes filled with hydrangea and garden roses were a perfect match to the navy and gold chargers traditionally used a the DAC.  This last photo below is by Dziekonski Photography (the above were taken by me   which is why they are  a bit off color).

From today's wedding a bouquet for Caitlin featuring juliet garden roses, peach and coral ranunculus, ivory ranunculus, cafe au'lait dahlia, passionflower vine, astilbe, and maidenhair fern.

I adore this wildly textured look it is the perfect hybrid of rustic and elegant.  Loosely textured bouquets can be a challenge but this one came together so nicely!

Congrats Caitlin and Mark The Dearborn Inn is such a lovely place for a fall wedding.

Congratulations Jaimie and Jesse!! 
loosely textured blush, burgundy, and purple bouquet for Detroit Wedding by Sweet Pea Floral Design www.sweetpfloral.com with pink ranunculus, passionflower vine, seeded eucalyptus, dahlia, and coxcomb celosia
Here is the brides bouquet from today's wedding at the Dearborn Inn.  Thats two days and two Dearborn Inn weddings back to back.  Designed this bouquet for Jaimie and Jesse featuring a contrasting loosely textured mix of burgundy, blush and purple flowers including dahlia, ranunculus, coxcomb (celocia) accented with passionflower vine (pops of bright green) and seeded eucalyptus.    I really liked the contrasting look colors in the same family but many shades apart.
