			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tommy and Shannon were hands down one of my favorite weddings we have done recently.  I am a sucker for lots of purple&#8230;add to that all these gorgeous butterfly accents and it was perfection.  They got married outside at <a href="http://www.thesmithvilleinn.com">The Smithville Inn</a> in picture perfect weather.  When Mary showed me all the details in this wedding I was so excited to see that the couple had come up with a theme (butterflies).  It is always fun to add special little details and watch it all come together in the end.  <a href="http://www.denisemabilog.com/">Denise Mabilog</a> was the photographer for this wedding and she caught some gorgeous shots &#8211; check out her blog, she does amazing work! Now on to the good stuff <img src='http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

We added sprigs of fresh lavender and this bouquet smelled amazing. We wrapped the stems with a handkerchief that Shannon provided to us (I think it was her grandmother&#39;s). Photo courtesy of Denise Mabilog Photography.</p></div>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_1319" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 810px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1319  " title="closeup or bride's" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/closeup-or-brides.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Here is a close-up shot of the bride&#39;s bouquet.

I love the pops of bright green against the purple. Photo courtesy of Denise Mabilog Photography.</p></div>
<div id="attachment_1316" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 810px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1316" title="bride and bm" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/bride-and-bm.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Shannon was such a gorgeous bride! I love this shot, these girls all look so pretty and that covered bridge is picture perfect. Photo courtesy of Denise Mabilog Photography.</p></div>
<div id="attachment_1323" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 650px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1323" title="total arbor" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/total-arbor.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="480" /><p class="wp-caption-text">They got married outside under this pergola. We added butterflies to the urns, perched on the branches and put a few in the top arbor piece. We even hung strands of white butterflies on each side &lt;3</p></div>
<div id="attachment_1324" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1324" title="urn" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/urn.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="640" /><p class="wp-caption-text">I loved these urns. We use our manzanita branches, hydrangea, roses, stock, and of course those butterflies!</p></div>
<div id="attachment_1313" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 650px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1313" title="arbor piece" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/arbor-piece.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="480" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Mary designed this piece and I have one word for it - LOVE!</p></div>

Adding a tall piece like this to the placecard table is so eye catching.</p></div>
<div id="attachment_1320" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 810px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1320  " title="hurrican cp" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/hurrican-cp.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Check out the little butterflies that Shannon gave us to put on all of the wineglasses - I love these little details!

<div id="attachment_1326" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1326" title="floral ring" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/floral-ring.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="640" /><p class="wp-caption-text">We made floral rings to go around hurricanes for half of the tables. The floral rings are a great option for brides that want to give their centerpieces away to their guests at the end of the wedding. </p></div>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_1315" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 810px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1315  " title="bowl cp" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/bowl-cp.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" /><p class="wp-caption-text">The other half of the tables we did these mounded silver bowl arrangements. The silver metal bowl is a rental and the arrangements are designed for guests to remove and take home. I love hydrangea; especially mixed with roses, kale, bupleurum, and butterflies. Photo courtesy of Denise Mabilog Photography.</p></div>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_1318" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 810px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1318 " title="cake topper" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/cake-topper.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Instead of a traditional cake topper, we decorated the top of their cake with just a few spray roses and a beaded butterfly.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tisk, tisk, Mary has been a bad blogger! It has been a while since we featured some wedding work and I apologize. We were away on a family vacation and the beach was just too distracting! Or maybe it was the 5 kids that kept us all busy&#8230;anyway, I am happy to showcase Tara and Chuck&#8217;s wedding from June 12, 2010. These docs (yes both are doctors) wanted an intimate backyard wedding, something Tara always dreamed about. When we arrived at her childhood  home outside of Philadelphia and entered the backyard, I could tell her dreams would come true that day. A giant willow tree (I think I have to get one of these on the farm here) with a gazebo nestled underneath was the perfect place for vows and a nearby tent (with AC!!!!) was placed on lush green grass and was lit with chandeliers, I couldn&#8217;t have done it better myself. Take a look for yourself!</p>
<p>The photos are courtesy of <a href="http://jpfaces.zenfolio.com ">John Robert Pankratz </a>, many thanks for sharing!</p>

This is what she had to say about it, &quot;they were able to take a family heirloom hairpiece and bring it back to life, literally - they revived it, reworked it, and made it like new - and it&#39;s 5 generations old!&quot; It was our pleasure!!</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> I love to be surprised, who doesn&#8217;t? This wedding handed me a lovely little surprise, I had NO IDEA that Pratt Gardens on County Home Road in Pilesgrove NJ even existed! And I grew up on a farm just down the road! From the looks of Aimee&#8217;s wedding photos, it was a perfect location for their outdoor ceremony and tented reception. Aimee&#8217;s wedding was a casual family affair, full of many personal touches that I just adored&#8230;.I can&#8217;t even take credit for them, Aimee did all the planning! However, during our first consultation when I discovered that her fiance was a glass blower, I quickly expressed my excitement (and jealousy &#8211; I took a glass blowing class in college and phew, that stuff is harder than it looks!). I asked Dan to make some glass beads to add to our floral designs and I just LOVE what he came up with. I knew I would, so that wasn&#8217;t really a surprise haha. I was happy to design the bridal party flowers for their special day and I hope that Aimee doesn&#8217;t mind me showcasing some of her other creative gardeny ideas for all of our other brides out there. Thanks for the inspiration Aimee!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">I am so blessed to have such supportive/amazing/inspiring friends, you know, the kind of friends that make you want to be a better person. Tina is in that category for sure. It just so happens that we have become industry buds too, which adds to the fun. Whenever we are together, we swap stories about creative and awesome weddings that we have been a part of and we are always trading tips and advice. As A Garden Party grows and develops, I can&#8217;t help but think that Tina has something to do with it. She has been so generous with sharing her beautiful photos (see many more on her <a href="http://www.tinajayphotography.com">website</a>), always sending me a cd bursting with tons of high res pics for me to play with&#8230;come see many of them in the new studio on display! So today&#8217;s post is showcasing her talent showcasing our work, cool huh?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 437px"><img class="p3-insert-all size-full   " title="100327-gardenparty-033" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/100327-gardenparty-033.jpg" alt="" width="427" height="640" /><p class="wp-caption-text">This is a sample of Tina&#39;s wedding bouquet for her big day in October, we are IN LOVE with the texture/bulk/drama of this bouquet! There is nothing delicate about this baby except for the feathers! Many of our brides are interested in sample bouquets, which we think is a great idea. We do charge for the sample though, these things cost money ladies! </p></div>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 650px"><img class="p3-insert-all size-full " title="100327-gardenparty-034" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/100327-gardenparty-034.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="427" /><p class="wp-caption-text">It was windy this day and those feathers were dancing! Every bouquet needs a little bit of movement, that is my motto. </p></div>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 437px"><img class="p3-insert-all size-full " title="100327-gardenparty-044" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/100327-gardenparty-044.jpg" alt="" width="427" height="640" /><p class="wp-caption-text">A centerpiece sample that you may have seen at our last bridal show...a trio of square vases with an electric mix of green cymbidium orchids and perfect blue hydrangea, this was HOT people!! Brides loved it at the show!</p></div>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 650px"><img class="p3-insert-all size-full " title="100327-gardenparty-049" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/100327-gardenparty-049.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="427" /><p class="wp-caption-text">So we might have went a little overboard on the feathers that day, but you gotta love it. Peonies and roses are a romantic duo.</p></div>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 437px"><img class="p3-insert-all size-full " title="100327-gardenparty-056" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/100327-gardenparty-056.jpg" alt="" width="427" height="640" /><p class="wp-caption-text">We got these new jeweled collars that are sooooooooo beautiful mixed with simple pink callas.</p></div>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 650px"><img class="p3-insert-all size-full " title="100327-gardenparty-051" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/100327-gardenparty-051.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="427" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Purple mokara orchids (my new addiction), grape hyacinths and ranunculus are cute cute cute for bridesmaids. I think this would look great with black dresses!</p></div>
<p style="text-align: center;">We that is my little bit of randomness for today! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Thanks again to Tina for sending me the beautiful photos and for being an inspiration. Love you 619 McKean!! To everyone that has no idea what that means, we were PSU freshman neighbors and loved every minute of that chaos. Looking forward to the weddings we are teaming up for this summer and of course your own wedding in October!  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Talk about a blushing bride&#8230;Colleen certainly was! I just got these awesome shots from <a href="http://www.dhumphreys.com/index.html">David Humphrey</a>, a local photographer serving the tri state area. FYI to my budgeting brides out there, he has maney different packages and prices listed on his website, thanks Dave! Anyway, back to Colleen and Stephen. Their wedding took place at <a href="http://www.paris-caterers.com/">Paris Caterers at the Palace </a>in Blackwood NJ, which is a great local venue that a lot of brides don&#8217;t know about! It is nicely updated with beautiful decor, the ballrooms are very clean, the managers are organized and friendly and they also have space for indoor or outdoor ceremonies of any size. Since Colleen and Steve got married on Novemeber 14th, they had their ceremony inside the Paris Room, with the reception immediately following in the Garden Room. Her aunts crafted these beautiful fall wreaths and hurricane candle centerpieces and Colleen chose to use many of the existing flower arrangements at The Palace to decorate her ceremony, so we just focused on the bouquets, personal flowers, unity candle and the cake.</p>
<p> Colleen wanted to capture the colors of the season with her wedding flowers and bridal party, so her maids wore a rich chocolate brown (one of my favs, it is the perfect neutral!). For her bridal party flowers, we used saturated fall tones like red, purple, yellow and orange, which looked great against the warm dresses! Their hand-tied bouquets of red mini gerbers, purple lisianthus, yellow roses, peach ranunculus and hypericum berries were finished with some of our favorite accents &#8211; peacock feathers and brown beaded wire!  </p>
<div id="attachment_542" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 910px"><img class="size-large wp-image-542" title="C_1640" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/C_1640-1024x682.jpg" alt="Surrounded by lots of love!" width="900" height="599" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Surrounded by lots of love!</p></div>

<div id="attachment_544" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 695px"><img class="size-large wp-image-544" title="C_0147" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/C_0147-685x1024.jpg" alt="A closer look at the bouquets." width="685" height="1024" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Colleen and her maid of honor...notice how we added a few of the stephanotis to make her stand out from the rest of the beautiful bridesmaids.</p></div>
<p>Colleen&#8217;s bouquet was designed to be a bit more traditional with mostly ivory flowers with a touch of color, it was so elegant! She loves calla lilies and stephanotis, so those flowers were the stars of her bouquet. Ivory roses, a soft peachy orange ranunculus (OBSESSED), hypericum berries and of course some peacock feathers and pearls (sassy and simple!) completed the bouquet.</p>

<p>Her mother&#8217;s corsage coordinated with the bridal party flowers and showcased peach roses on a beaded wristlet (we NEVER use those tacky elastic scratchy wristlets) and I just had to include this picture, because now you know where Colleen got that beautiful smile from! Great shot Dave!</p>

</div>
<p>For their unity candle, we just did a simple arrangement of these HUGE orange roses that really said it all. After the ceremony, the arrangement was moved to their sweetheart table to serve as the centerpiece there. Great way to save some money!</p>

<p>The couple&#8217;s cake was a traditional design with a topper. We accented the layers with coordinating flowers in bright colors, which stand out best on any wedding cake.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">We just had pictures sent to us from a bride that got married this past September (thanks Sara!), and I am so excited to blog about them.  Purple is my favorite color and I am always thrilled to meet a bride that loves purple as much as I do.  Sara got married at <a href="http://www.paris-caterers.com/">The Palace in Blackwood</a>, which by the way is a gorgeous reception hall all you bride to be&#8217;s should check out &#8211; tell Keith we sent you! All photos were done by <a href="http://www.cindyguessford.com/">Cindy Guessford Photography</a>, check out her website &#8211; she does some beautiful work. Now on to the pictures&#8230;.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-500" title="SaraBittle2[1]" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/SaraBittle21.bmp" alt="Sara's beautiful bouquet consisted of lavander roses, stock, and purple dendrobium orchids.  I love mixing shades of purple, and look how great purple photographs!" /><br />
Sara&#8217;s beautiful bouquet consisted of lavender roses, stock, and purple dendrobium orchids. I love mixing shades of purple, and look how great purple photographs!<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-501" title="SaraBittlebridesmaids2[1]" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/SaraBittlebridesmaids21.bmp" alt="SaraBittlebridesmaids2[1]" /><br />
I had to include this picture! Look how gorgeous these girls look with all their purple up against that blue wall. This shows you how good colors you might not expect would work together can really play off of each other. All your brides out there contemplating blue bridesmaid dresses, consider purple for your flowers!<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-502" title="SaraBittlebridesmaids[1]" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/SaraBittlebridesmaids1.bmp" alt="SaraBittlebridesmaids[1]" /><br />
Sara&#8217;s bridesmaid&#8217;s bouquets were simply purple stock and lavender roses. Sometimes mixing just two or three flower types results in the most elegant look. We bumped it up a notch for the bride and added deep purple dendrobium orchids.<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-499" title="centerpiece[1]" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/centerpiece1.bmp" alt="centerpiece[1]" /><br />
A few vases with simple stems of flowers created this chic centerpiece. We used stems of orchids in one vase and the lavander roses in another, added some purple ribbon and of course a little gemstone accent, and Sara&#8217;s tables were gorgeous.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
Hope you enjoyed all this purple as much as we did!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="mceTemp mceIEcenter">
<p style="text-align: center;">Getting the mail now is such an adventure! Whenever my little <a href="http://www.tinajayphotography.com/2010/01/philadelphia-family-photography/">Lee</a> is fussy, we head out to the mailbox (he loves being outside!). We grab the mail and slowly make our way back into the house, sometimes taking garden strolls to check out all of my flowers. I am ready for spring now, can you tell?!?! When we get back in the house, I have one arm full of perfect baby rolls and one arm full of flyers, newspapers, magazines, catalog, bills and every now and then…a card! Much to my delight, I recently received this card from one of our brides, <a href="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/the-perfect-philadelphia-wedding/">Clarisa</a>, and her new hubby, Dan. I love how she used one of her wedding photos! Of course, a little part of me is also featured on the card – her bouquet!</p>
</div>
<div id="attachment_433" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 548px"><img class="size-large wp-image-433 " title="024" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/024-768x1024.jpg" alt="A beautiful holiday card from one of our beautiful brides!" width="538" height="717" /><p class="wp-caption-text">A beautiful holiday card from one of our beautiful brides!</p></div>
<p> As I looked at the front, I thought, &#8220;Oh, how sweet, she sent us a Christmas card!!&#8221; but as I flipped it over, I realized it was a thank you card AND and Christmas card! What could be better? I hope she doesn&#8217;t mind if I share it with you&#8230;</p>
<div id="attachment_435" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 624px"><img class="size-large wp-image-435 " title="029" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/029-768x1024.jpg" alt="Her hand-written note was so sweet, it totally made my day! Maybe my week!" width="614" height="819" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Her hand-written note was so sweet, it totally made my day! Maybe my week!</p></div>
<p>I think my favorite line is &#8220;&#8230;we found your ideas very refreshing and exactly on point with what we were looking for. I also really appreciated your willingness to work with our budget, it was such a relief to know we could still have such classy, beautiful arrangements without breaking the bank.&#8221; That statement says a lot to me! Dawn and I try very hard to help each bride select floral designs that reflect their personality and style, but still at a reasonable price, and I think we hit this one out of the park. Here is a flashback from her wedding day.</p>
<div id="attachment_437" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 550px"><img class="size-large wp-image-437 " title="028" src="http://www.gardenpartysisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/0281-1024x927.jpg" alt="An all white bouquet with white callas, stock and orchids with bear grass loops." width="540" height="488" /><p class="wp-caption-text">An all white bouquet with white callas, stock and orchids with bear grass loops.</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Every year we have that one wedding that just truly comes together and turns out even more amazing then we had envisioned. This year I think that wedding was Staci and Justin&#8217;s. They got married at <a href="www.runningdeergolfclub.com">Running Deer</a> on Oct. 3rd and everything was just gorgeous. The ceremony was outside, under the new pergola that Running Deer put up, on a beautiful fall day. The event was full of hydrangea, orchids, and dahlias in stunning shades of purple and orange.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><code>September has been a busy month for Mary and I, but we are enjoying every moment of it. The first weekend in September started with a bang, with not only Tiffanie's wedding at the Smithville Mansion, but also Tracey's wedding at Drexelbrook. Tracey was a great bride to work with and came prepared with lots of ideas. She chose purple as the main color for her flowers, and loved calla lilies so we put together a look that we hope she truly loved. She picked a beautiful venue for her ceremony and got married outside at Drexelbrook, on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon. Here are some shots of her flowers...</code></p>
