My latest wedding flowers

The bride of this wedding is a video producer and is very creative. It was one of the most unique weddings I've ever seen! The colors were red and yellow and she wanted very minimal flowers. (Thanks Erin and Jim who were guests at the wedding and took the photos for me!)















Yes, I am spray-painting these (live) white mini calla lilies red. The bride had her heart set on true red callas (which don't exist in nature), so I used a special floral spray paint on them. I spend an hour doing it, but I think she liked what she got! My hands were red for two days though.
Below is a photo of the spray-painted callas which comprised the bride's bouquet. They have a cuff of white ostrich feathers and are being held by a bridesmaid.














Sorry again that you have to twist your head to see this one. This is the bridesmaid's bouquet.















Here's the cake!














There were four of the following arrangements on the stage where they said their vows. Behind the bride and groom was a giant backdrop of a Parisian scene with the Eiffel Tower. The flowers and the backdrop gave the effect of sitting in a cafe looking out at Paris. It was definitely nontraditional but really cool!
