Hydrangeas and Roses and Weddings oh My!

Hydrangeas and roses are the fashion

for this summers wedding scene, and we are only too happy to oblige.

Way back in July we did a fairytale wedding in our garden here, at Ferns and Flowers, Tea house and Bistro.

The arch had a mix of garden style flowers and features roses, hydrangeas and ribbons.

A bubble machine added  hundreds of bubbles to the I’do’s!

The the 45 guest had dinner served in the farm house.

Fruit and flower arrangements

Fruit and flower centerpiece for your Thanksgiving table, adds the flavor of the season.

The textures and colors come together when I gather flowers, to match the dinning room, the table cloth, and the china pattern.
We can make a pink and rose color dinning room look thanksgiving and fall like, by adding red apples, beige wheat, purple cabbage flowers, brown pears, red, cream, and honey tone roses and orchids.  Go ahead and call me for some suggestions!  Michael

Fall wedding flowers to be thankfull for

This is a lovely fall bouquet, for a wedding party. The attendants have rich red tone dresses. The random cascade sets a carefree yet elegant look to a formal event.

Rich Fall Flowers

Rich colors of the season, remind us of Tuscany.  This table is for a fall wedding celebration, but the combination is perfect for any family gathering.  Cabbages, sunflowers, roses, red rover mums, and Gerber add the rich textures to this design.

Wedding Whites

A handsome arrangement perfect to accent a guest book table. Sea shells and soft shell colors or blush roses and ivory hydrangia and other pink flowers carry out the theme.

Winter Wedding

Now for a break from the Christmas displays, we have two wedding bouquets for your perusal.

First is one made using pink roses, posie callalillies, and hypericum.

Perfect for the Thanksgiving table

And one more for good measure

Baby Shower

We recently did a baby shower that was held in the adjacent restaurant.  The organizer wanted colourful bouquets, with a summery feel and we were only too happy to oblige.  The table centerpieces were created using flowers such as daisies, roses, rose hips, and small sunflowers.  They were put in glass cube vases wrapped with ribbon and finally “garnished” with butterflies.

There were a total of four centerpieces

notice the rose petals scattered on the table

Rhode Island Garden Centerpiece

This arrangement was created using Hydrangea, roses, cabbage, miniature cymbeduim orchid, grasses, and several other plants able to be grown in gardens around RI.  It was placed in the recent favourite pea-pod vase.

Garden in a Peapod

Hello folks, sorry for the lack of updates… school is starting up again and professors usually frown upon my furiously typing in class…

Anyways, this arrangement is for a real gardener and plant lover.  We used a ceramic pea pod container and filled it with a large variety of plants, such as Stars of Bethlehem, Tritoma, Lavender Roses, Tuber Roses, Cabbage, Gerbera, Adriatic Lilies, Rose Hips, Pink Spray Roses, and Rosemary.

Cabbages and Butterflies

A little spanish moss really brings out the colors of the roses... its a good thing

Notice how the butterfly pulls the oranges and whites down into the core of the arrangement

I love the macro function on this camera!
