My
friend Anna is naturally beautiful - and so were the flowers for her
wedding. I feel very fortunate to have been a part of this wonderful
wedding adventure in the Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota. Really,
the flowers get a bit over-looked when a wedding ceremony looks out
over the dramatic beauty of a northern lake and forest; the best a
florist can do is try to fit in:-)
The
bouquets were made of mostly organic and locally grown flowers, berries
and foliages; including: viburnum berries, bronze nine-bark, green
zinneas, swiss chard, kale, crab-apples, lotus pods, sage, cedar, thyme,
rosemary, lemon-scented geranium, hens and chicks, ferns, curly willow,
purple fountain grass, hanging-amaranthus, stonecrop sedum and
hydrangeas. And for my bird-loving friend, we included seed-heads from
coneflowers, black-eyed susans and sunflowers; plus, of course, feathers
from the bride’s collection. beautiful. naturally.
