Melissa + Ben :: The Driskill Hotel

We're on Day 2 of our SMS Photography love week. This wedding was also at the Driskill Hotel and I just loved the deep red and ivory combos. It was so vintage and classic and the theme looked great inside the hotel. It also helped that Melissa is gorgeous! We couldn't have done it without the fabulous Caplan Miller girls and Simon Lee Bakery. Thanks ladies, its always a pleasure working with such great people.

Gorgeous ivory garden roses and hydrangea for the bridal bouquet and and a mixture of ivory garden roses, hydrangea and a pop of burgundy dahlias with a classic greenery accent. Love!

We used a custom aisle runner with a monochromatic damask pattern for that vintage feel, along with our signature candlescape with hydrangea accents and simple altar pieces in stone urns.

We had an array of different table arrangements that included the simple ivory colors with the burgundy and green accents with a chocolate leaf swirl to cover the stems and create a clean look. You'll also see that we created a way to use the bridesmaids bouquets as part of the centerpieces.

Lovely simple design by Simon Lee accented by fluffy white hydrangea. And they lived happily ever after... :)

Rory + Bill Bob's Vintage Peacock Commitment Ceremony :: Red Corral Ranch :: 07.19.08

Rory & Bill Bob's Commitment Ceremony - 7.19.08
Rory & Bill Bob are some of the most fun and amazing people! We love their style and their willingness to take risks with decor. From peacock feathers, vintage bridesmaids dresses to funky wrought iron pieces, this celebration had it all! A great big thank you to Red Corral Ranch and Chris Carson Photography for making this happen!

Aren't these bridesmaids dresses awesome?

We also designed and created hair flowers that included chocolate orchids and ivory peacock feathers.

Handsome grooms! :) We loved these boutonnieres with a mini cymbidium orchid, fiddlehead fern and a peacock feather finished off with a gold wire.
