Paige & Sam

Happy Saturday Morning Pretties,

There is no better way to start a Saturday than a big cup of coffee, 80 degree forecast and lush blush peonies! 

Thank you to the wonderful and talented Marni Rothschild for capturing such gorgeous shots of high school lovebirds Paige and Sam on their sunny December wedding day at The River House.  I was so honored to play a role in this sweet charming celebration. Highlights include...working with Southern Protocol's Lizz Akerman (her amazing energy is contagious) and meeting Meme (the Bride's grandmother) the sweetest Meme there is!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin!

Good Morning Pretties,

We have been busy little bees gearing up for Spring brides! As Dee prepares for the wedding paper and jewelry rush, I have been spending time finalizing floral orders for these exciting upcoming nuptials. Here is a little glimpse of trends we are looking to capture this spring; Lots of subtle grey tones, mint greens, dusty lilacs, and hints of peach and blush coming your way! 








We look forward to sharing tons of fun photos on the blog from our fabulous February weddings very soon! In the meantime, we have been feeling mad love from the blog world this past week and wanted to thank A Jewelry Crush (Dee Ruel spotlight) and The Knot Blog (wedding flowers by Violet) for including us! Check out the entire blog post links below.






Soak up the rest of what's left of this weekend,
Love, T

Mr. and Mrs. Ellery

Morning Pretties,

As I get ready to roll up my sleeves and dig into designing beautiful blooms for this weekend's wedding, I wanted to roll back to December and share some gorgeous floral shots (compliments of Shannon Noel Holton with Riverland Studios.) Thank you Shannon for your unbelievable talents and big cheerful smile! It was a joy meeting you and any bride who has the opportunity to work with you as a photographer is a lucky one.

I knew from the moment I met Anne (the new Mrs. Ellery) that we were going to work great together! She is one of the most genuine, beautiful people I have ever met. Anne has impeccable taste and I loved all of her ideas for the big day. My favorite being her sparkly gold bridesmaid dresses!!! Her sweet groom Justin was just as much a pleasure and so adorably smitten with his bride. It is not often you find a couple just as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. 

Best of luck to the happy couple! See the full wedding post here!
