Allerie's Wedding


When I first sat down with Allerie to discuss her wedding, she had just four words to say to me, "Blue and green M&M's." Her wedding color scheme was an exact match of those colors. Easy enough for me to picture in my head, but before I purchased any ribbon, flowers, or other decor, I had to go out and buy me a pack just to make sure. It was definitely a pleasure to double check those colors!

Allerie's photographer was great! Alea Moore Photography focused on all the right details of Allerie's special day and was very easy to work with. You will see her work in the pictures that follow:


The bridesmaids dresses were black with either a blue or green sash. Allerie's bouquet consisted of beautiful lady slipper orchids and roses. The bridesmaids carried roses, blue delphinium, and green hypericum berries in their bouquets.
I really loved the idea of the blue and green M&M's, so as an added touch for Allerie's wedding, I purchased these adorable little purses and filled them with her favorite candy for all the bridesmaids as a way of labeling each of their bouquets. And, of course Allerie received one too!

For the reception, Allerie rented beautiful table runners in blue and green. I designed her centerpieces with blue delphinium submerged in varying heights of cylinder vases with eith blue gems or green rocks and floating candles at the top. Simple and fun, yet very elegant.
