This last week of June has been a crazy one...we did 4 weddings again*...I did a little photo shoot with all the leftovers at the studio last night - i have a gorgeous peachy bouquet to tell you about but let me start with some of the hot colors we've been using the last two weeks...
We were lucky this week to snag some of the last peonies of the season - these magenta ones are my favorite this year - I wish I knew the varietal name of them...do you?
Astrantia finally looking really good - that's the little lacey white flower above...and one of my favorite trees: Nine Bark "Diablo" it has brownish red foliage with small pink flowers. We've been ordering a lot of material direct from California lately. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Blushing Bride Protea's are really coming this week...you're going to love them.
*The four weddings in a weekend thing is over now. About 3 months ago we decided to only book one wedding per day. This wedding/events business has been a big wild learning experience for us. I have a hard time saying no to people. I also tend to enjoy inordinate amounts of stress and chaos. The four wedding day on June 12th was AMAZING. We pulled it off with such suave and attention to detail. I havn't mentioned much about it but it will go down as one of the best days in Saipua history. But one can only function at that level of intensity for so long before one starts noticing more and more grey hairs and strange numbing in the finger pads. So we're slowing it down a bit. Starting in August we're booked only one event per day. Which means that I might have a chance to photograph everything for once. Which is good news for you.
