Featured in The Texas Knot- Allison & Zach's Wedding

I came across this article the other day while looking for pretty things to talk about on the blog. This wedding was unreal - absolutely breathtaking! Petal Pushers was one of the vendors at Allison & Zach's San Antonio wedding last March and this past Fall their Wedding was featured in The Knot Texas.

From the amazing arbor to the bouquet to the tables, it's obvious that Petal Pushers sprinkled their expertise and magic all over this wedding.

The 12 types of flowers used (including my favorites - Ranunculas, Peonies, Garden Roses and Cymbidium Orchids) constituted a gorgeous spectrum of pink with the Italian Ruscus, Jasmine Vine, and Texas Smilax mixing in a pinch of green. This combination created a gorgeous garden wedding.

Looking at these photos, Allison & Zach's event has such a whimsical and elegant floral atmosphere resulting in jaw dropping beauty. I can only imagine what it must have been like to have been there and to have taken this all in in-person. It seems fairy tale like - so light, airy, and delicate. **sigh & swoon, sigh & swoon**

Petal Notes:

This was a progressive wedding with the ceremony on the lawn, the cocktail hour in the courtyard, and reception in the ballroom.  The cake was placed out in the round foyer as a statement piece so as not to get lost in the rectangular room that was already filled with dramatic floral.

We chose a variety of table styles with a long, dramatic head table to give the room variance, which I recommend for most weddings, the only exception being small bottle weddings if they have lots of their own props on the tables.  But, for the most part, a room has a better flow with a mix of centerpieces - especially if all of the tables are round (which I try to discourage).

Mary Jane + Mike :: Salt Lick Pavilion

We love weddings at the Salt Lick Pavillion and Thurman's Mansion. Not only is it super close to our studio and home, but we love how versatile the space is. You can go from Hill Country chic to classy elegance to fun with some gerbera daisies. Mary Jane's decor was fun, sassy and romantic. We loved the vintage-y feel that her bridal bouquet had.

Thank you to the super generous and talented Michael Hooks with Hooked on Photography for these lovely images. We can always count on him for some great detail shots!

Too cute!!!

We loved how the bridal bouquet really suited Mary Jane's dress for a soft look and the fun "pop" of color against the bridesmaids' dresses.

A simple centerpiece of hydrangea, hypericum berries and hanging amaranthus finished with a birch swirl and petals on the table.

This altar/arbor is always at the Pavilion and we love coming up with different ways to decorate it. We used fuschia/hot pink spray roses and green amaranthus for softness and romance.

Kathryn + Burke :: The Driskill :: 12.18.07

Red at the Driskill is always a winner!! I was lucky enought to be working with Sarah Miller with Caplan Miller Events.  Sarah worked at The Driskill for several years prior to venturing into the event Industry with co-worker Courtney Caplan and forming Caplan Miller Events! They are a great team and it has been lots of fun watching them grow so fast! This wedding was Sarah's first event at The Driskill as the outside coordinator!!! She did a perfect job and it was fun seeing her trying to not be "the boss" of the Driskill staff!!! I'm sure it felt wierd to not have their keys and walkie talkie in hand so she could just go grab something from a closet or snap a little button and talk to whom ever she needed in the Hotel in the matter of a second if she needed to!!!

Here are a few photos from Pam Hults with Hults Photography aka a' la vie Thank you Pam!
