Danielle & Bruce M. were married in late July at Franks Waterside outdoor gazebo in North Bergen New Jersey. Danielle came to me two weeks before her wedding after having been frustrated with her local florist telling her what couldn't be done.

Her goal was to capture a Fall theme to match the outdoor setting with Orange, Yellow and Green being the primary color shceme. For the Yellow we used common Sunflowers in full bloom. For the orange color in the roses we used a Tropical Amazon Rose and mixed in Orange Lillies & Mini Gerber daisies for variety.  The Green was captured with Large
Spider Mums, Green Hydrangea, Green Button flowers & Granny Smith Apples in the bases of larger displays.

Bridal Work

                              Bridal Bouquet                                               Brides Maids Bouquets

The Bridal Bouquet featured Orange Lillies, Tropical American Roses & Mini Gerber Daisies to capture the orange scents.  The green was primarily hinted at with Green Spider Mums and some Green Hydrangea, finishing off the pieces are white Stephanotis with gem inserts. 
The Brides Maids bouquets off-set the bridal bouquet with a primary green color of Hydrangea, Spider mums and touches of green button flowers.  The Orange color was provided by the Orange mini gerber daisies.

                     Mothers Corsage                      Groomsmens Boutonniere      Grooms Boutonniere

The Corsages and Boutonnieres were all designed with Orange Tropical American Roses as the primary flower.  The Mothers corsage featured three roses wound with green ribbon.  The Grooms mens piece was a simple single rose while the Grooms Boutonniere added two white Stephanotis with center gems.

The Ceremony

	The main ceremony was held in the outdoor gazebo on the banks of the Hudson River with the New York Skyline on the backdrop.  While the day was somewhat grey the moode was festive and the colors were vibrant. All of the flowers and colors came into play in decorating the wood framed gazebo. A dozen large yellow Sunflowers were used on each side accented by Orange Gerber Daisies and Tropical American Roses. The Green bedding is mainly Hydrangia and Spider Mums with some random base greens mixed in for support. The Ceremony runner was added just before the ceremony started and was lined with American Tropial rose petals and green Gerber Daisey petals.  The windy day kept most of them a flutter in teh breeze but it was still a nice touch.

 The Reception

The Reception was in the main dinning hall just off the gazeebo deck.  The entryway into the room featured a pair of large vase displays with Granny Smith Apples in the bases and Green Hydrangea, Green Spider Mum, Yellow Sunflowers, Orange gerber daisies & American Tropical Roses with wood stems for fullness. Two different size center pieces were used, both containing the same arrangements of Sunflowers, Orange Gerber Daisies, Green Hydrandea and mixed greens. The Bride/Groom table featured a larger, fuller display of the same Sunflowers & Gerbers on a fuller bed of Hydrangea. Finally the Cake was decorated with a n assortment of Orange lillies, American Tropical Roses, Green Spider mums & Orange Gerber Daisies.

In the words of the Bride. "Debbie, Just wanted to send a message to tell you how much we loved your flower arrangements for the wedding! Everyone was amazed.
