Commence Wedding Season 2012!

Got to work with Sarah Taggart of aPp Christine + Mike's wedding in Litchfield this weekend. Lots of fun -- and what an amazing day. P-e-r-f-e-c-t weather! Loads of greens, whites and blues made this golf club wedding springy and fresh. We added a lovely vintage lace and blue satin detail on each of the glass vases that added just a the perfect touch of sweetness to the table arrangements.

The bridesmaid's bouquets were composed of a green + white tulip, grape hyacinth, white ranunculus, and hydrangea. Adorable and a great complement to their cobalt dresses.

Check-out yours truly on fabulous R.Derwin Clothier's blog! VERY fun day ... in VERY fine clothes. White Flower Farm is truly a special place that we are so lucky to have right here in Litchfield!
Mike Wilson did a great job with the photos.

Child's Play

This is an inadvertent floral arrangement created by my son and his friends (well, really his girlfriends created it!) at a child's birthday party. Never thought to integrate tortilla chips but how lovely is this? The colors are extraordinary. Composed of: hosta leaf, an assortment of spring petals, and tortilla chip!?

Pretty Pink & Green

Sweet spring arrangement for confirmation lunch at Mayflower Inn & Spa in Washington, CT.

SWND in New England Home Magazine

SWND was so happy to be included in this gorgeous Litchfield photo shoot elegantly captured by Michael Partenio for New England Home. I chose to incorporate subtle bursts of green to add a burst of freshness to the rooms but not take away from the beauty of the incredible interior. This unforgettable historic home is very lucky to have been found and masterfully decorated by current owner and art consultant Lauren Della Monica, LPDM Fine Art Consulting.

Trend Spotting ... Food Trucks at Weddings!

It is certainly not for everyone but I'm totally into the food truck idea for a casual outdoor wedding. I went to a wedding in Napa last May where they did it for a rehearsal dinner and it was fab and fun! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di77-Ivb15E

Intrigued? In our area (can you believe?), check-out The Rocket Truck!! ... Rocket Street Food, Big Fan! And, El Camion in Woodbury, CT.

First Bloom Farm in LCT!

Our good friend Maggie Saska and First Bloom Farm had a great write-up in LCT Monthly this issue about her herculean efforts to grow sustainable flowers right here in Connecticut. You can read the article here. P.S. Thank you, Maggie, for the shout-out to SWND!

New Photos from J&R Wedding last July!

Now that it is getting cold and engagement season is upon us, let's look back to a fabulous July wedding with loads of style and elegance, but not an insane price tag. We just got these photos in and think that photographer Rebecca Hansen did an amazing job capturing the light and elegant feel of this beach side wedding in Madison, Connecticut.
