Holiday Party at the Chase

As promised, pictures of the flowers for the holiday party and fundraiser for St. Vincent's Children's Home. As with the previous holiday party, this client also chose not to use traditional holiday colors. We did short arrangements of white tulips, purple stock, blue hydrangea and filler with winter greens for the small guest tables. The taller arrangements for the food stations included silver birch, green fuji mums, purple iris, blue delphinium and filler. We thought these colors looked great in the Starlight Room and still had a winter-y feel.

Wedding at Grand Basin and the Chase

Meryl and Scott were married in June at the Grand Basin. They had a beautiful day for a wedding. Take a look at these shots from Benton Park Photography.

The wedding colors were blue and white. Meryl's attendant carried a bouquet of all white and blue hydrangea.

Meryl carried a bouquet of all white peonies with a rhinestone accent.

For the ceremony, we filled our two large urns with all white flowers to frame the couple and the scenery in the park.

The reception was held at the Chase Park Plaza in the Zodiac Room.

All of the tables had a tall silver stand filled with white dendrobium orchids.

The white flowers and silver containers complimented the white and silver of the linens and the blues in the Zodiac Room. As always, the staff at the Chase was very helpful and a real pleasure to work with! (We actually had two weddings at the Chase this same day--this one upstairs and another in the downstairs ballroom!)

Thanks to the Scott and Meryl. It was fun working with you and we wish you all the best for your future together!

One Wedding, Two Gorgeous Ceremonies

Here's the story of one great couple, two ceremonies, and an awesome party. Melissa and Kedric were married in early May. They had a traditional Jewish ceremony on Friday with their close friends and family on hand. On Saturday, they chose a beautiful outdoor ceremony at World's Fair Pavilion in Forest Park and a gorgeous reception at the Chase. Take a peek at the pictures from both days!

Here are the bride and groom at their Jewish ceremony. We set up our chuppah and decorated it with the bride's wedding colors--bright pinks and oranges. (Thank you to the family for supplying these snapshots!)

The following are professional shots from Luke Walker Photography of Saturday's details and ceremony.

Melissa's bouquet was a mix of cherry brandy roses, pink hydrangea, orange spray roses, hot pink waxflower filler, and pink cymbidium orchids.

Outdoor ceremony at Forest Park.

The following snapshots were taken by Sisters during the reception set-up at the Chase. There were two different centerpieces for the guest tables-one tall and one short. All the flowers were the bright pinks and oranges of the personal and ceremony flowers.

We filled the bride's vases with hydrangea, roses, and stock, and accented with hanging amaranthus and pheasant feathers.

These short, rounded centerpieces included roses, stock, and waxflower to add a pop of color on the tables.

Congratulations to the bride and groom! It was a pleasure working with you! Best wishes for your future!

Fall Wedding at the Chase--Take Two!!

We just got more shots of the wedding we did at the Chase a few weeks ago. (We also blogged about it in an earlier entry.) The bride and groom, Susie and Sandeep had two ceremonies--an American ceremony and an Indian ceremony. These photos tell the story of their day....

All of these photos were taken by a friend of the bride and groom, Michael Hersh.

First, the Indian Ceremony.....

The groom makes his traditional grand entrance.

The beautiful colors and textured fabrics made the orange circus rose bouquets stand out.

Then, the American Ceremony....

Brightly colored bouquets of fall colored flowers helped usher in this ceremony's fall theme.

The lovely bride.



All of the bouquets were a mix of the fall circus roses, orange orchids, burgundy coxcomb, and berries. The bridal bouquet had an accent of ivory ranunculus to give hers a little more of a distinctive look.




Last, but not least, the party!!
Guest tables were decorated with high and low centerpieces of all the wedding flowers and curly willow. (Check out the previous blog for more shots of the centerpieces!!)

Fantastic fall on the cake!!



All our best to the happy couple!!

Fall wedding at the Chase

Fall is one of our FAVORITE seasons here at Sisters. Not only is the temperature a little more desirable, but the colors and flowers that we get to work with are out of this world! Here is a great example from this past weekend at the wedding of Susie & Sandeep.

Susie's bouquet had a rich, fall color tone. Circus roses, jade berries, red/burgundy coxcomb, ivory ranunculus, and orange orchids brought all the colors of the season to the ceremony.

We loved how the ivory ranunculus seemed to "peek" out of the bridal bouquet.

In the bridesmaids' flowers, we added cocoa berries in place of the jade, and omitted the ranunculus to save the ivory for the bride.

The reception decor in the Khor Sahn Ballroom at the Chase Park Plaza reflected the same fall color scheme from the ceremony. Half of the tables had these lush cube vases filled with all the wedding flowers.

The brown ribbon accent around the cube vases tied in the brown berry accents from the flower arrangement.

The other half of the tables had these tall trumpet vases, filled to the brim with curly willow, berries, roses, and fall hydrangea.

The soft amber lighting combined with the colors of the fall flowers gave the whole room a warm, autumn, glowing feeling.

We enjoyed working with Engaging Events by Amy on this event. Thanks, Amy, for helping make this wedding an awesome experience for us! Best wishes to the bride and groom!!
