Posted on April 28, 2017 by Jen

Oh my goodness! I started this forever ago and realized that I never finished it! This was such a fun and gorgeous wedding from the fall. Baby’s breath was super popular for 2016 weddings and this was an elegant baby’s breath wedding!

Thank you to Kristen Nicole Photography for these awesome photos! Kristen always knows how to make our flowers pop in her pictures!

Posted on April 10, 2017 by Jen

I love, Love, LOVED this wedding! Alex came in not really sure of what she wanted but had an idea of color palette. She was awesome because she completely trusted us and told us to do our thing. We are so happy with the results! Plus we are so lucky that Alex and Rich had picked Blue Martini Photography so they have beautiful pictures! Christin always make our flowers look amazing! Plus they had a gorgeous day at Nazareth Hall in Grand Rapids!

Posted on March 16, 2017 by Jen

All I can say is wow about this one! We loved planning with Kamel’s mom because as a landscape designer with Jackie Ansara Landscape Planning and Planting she was all about textures! Please check out this gorgeous bride and wedding below!

Colleen and I loaded up on this gorgeous sunny day and drove from Sylvania to Livonia to the most beautiful church with reception hall across the parking lot. It was such a cool set up and so convenient for guests!

10-22-16 Shannon and Josh- Toledo, Ohio Wedding Flowers

Posted on March 8, 2017 by Jen

Shannon and Josh had the most beautiful fall day for their wedding! The fall colors that Shannon picked were absolutely perfect! Please check out the yellow, red and orange bouquets that include sunflowers, gerbera daisies and roses.

I can’t believe that it took me so long to get this posted, because Blue Lux Photography had pictures edited so fast! I love that about them! Aren’t they beautiful?

My favorite memory of this wedding was when Shannon and her bridesmaids were outside taking photos before the ceremony and we had to sneak her back into the church when guests were already in the church. So fun!

As a full service florist, we pass out bouquets, explain how to hold them, pin on corsages and boutonnieres, set up any ceremony flowers and anything else we may be needed for. This includes pointing people in the right direction to the bathrooms and opening doors to sneak the bride back in since I was still there waiting for a Grandparent. I love my job!

10-7-16 Taylor and Brandon- Grand Rapids, OH Wedding Flowers

Posted on February 20, 2017 by Jen

I met Taylor’s mom through a networking organization I am involved in and she recommended Taylor to me. When I met with them the first time, I fell in love! I loved the colors and the textures that Taylor was looking for! Flowers were a very important part of her wedding and I was so honored that she trusted me to let me have some fun and be creative!

Please take a look at these gorgeous flowers below highlighted by some awesome shots by Dave and Kerri Photography at the elegant Nazareth Hall in Grand Rapids, Ohio.

9-10-17 Megan and Thomas- Ottawa Lake, MI Wedding Florist

Posted on December 8, 2016 by Jen

We had so much fun getting to know Megan and her mom throughout the year. Megan’s mom opened a company called the Traumatic Brain Injury Resource Center after having a traumatic brain injury herself. Her company was one of our Charity In Bloom choices this year and we love supporting those who support us.

What a gorgeous bride and amazing dress! She also had an awesome attitude when the weather didn’t cooperate and she had to move the ceremony inside. At least they didn’t get blown away by all the wind during their pictures!

I always tell brides that something will go wrong on your wedding day. It’s what you do when that happens that determines how your day goes. Or you can just hire a wedding coordinator like our friends over at Bee For the Day and then everything gets fixed and you never even know that there was a problem!

Please take a look at these amazing pictures from Gage Blake Photography! We love working with Mandy because she makes our work look so gorgeous!

8-27-16 Sarah and Joe- Toledo Wedding Florist

Posted on December 3, 2016 by Jen

I met Sarah’s mom through the Downtown Sylvania Association, as the owner of New-Trition, and we moved into her building when we opened our second location a few years ago. I was so honored when her daughter chose Beautiful Blooms by Jen to design her wedding flowers!

What was so cool about Sarah is that she chose to turn her mom’s wedding dress into her wedding dress. What a cool idea! Please see the finished look below.

Sarah and her bridal bouquet by Beautiful Blooms By Jen featuring sunflowers, white chamomile, white germini daisies, yellow yarrow, white roses,and yellow alstroemeria.

I love fall weddings because it gives us the opportunity to use fun textures and flowers that are not available year round. The little white daisy-looking flowers are called chamomile and the little yellow ones that look like buttons are called tansy.

Love the simple, elegant sunflowers floating below. This dish garden is one of my favorites!

8-27-16 Ashley and Josh- Toledo Wedding Flowers

Posted on November 16, 2016 by Jen

I loved Ashley right from the beginning! Our love of bling was what made us click and I was so excited for her wedding! As I began to load everything up to drive to Schedel Gardens in Elmore, OH, I noticed a big giant storm following me! I called over to Schedel Gardens to figure out the backup plan. They said the storm is going to pass and the wedding will go on outside, after the storm.

I arrived at the gardens and finished unloading everything just in time for it to start pouring! Of course, that was about the time the bride and her bridal party showed up. The ladies at Schedel were totally prepared and zipped the girls down to the cottage to get ready. Then after the rain stopped they had a huge crew ready to dry off chairs and they actually moved all of the chairs to a higher location since the one planned was a mess. I hope the guests were prepared for an outdoor wedding. I couldn’t believe how cool and collected Ashley and Josh were!

7-30-16 Sarah and Eric- Toledo, Ohio Wedding Flowers

Posted on September 17, 2016 by Jen

Sarah may have been the most organized bride I’ve ever met. She wanted to provide all of the vintage containers for her centerpieces, so she brought me pictures of each table and we added flowers. We also loved the fact that she asked us to make a flower crown for her engagement pictures and ceremony. So gorgeous!

Here is the gorgeous video from Fordham Footage!
