Pretty in Pink Wedding with Rustic Touches at the University Club

A recent wedding at the University Club we did with Courtney Hammons of A Magical Affair had a bit of a rustic look. There was an abundance of flowers and rustic details like birch bark containers, honeysuckle vine and a wrought iron arch to mark the entrance to the dinning room.

Contemporary Wedding at the Bridge Building

One of the newest modern venues in Nashville is the Bridge Building. If you want some great views of downtown with out the hassle of the downtown parking nightmare, this is the place.

It really lends itself to a contemporary look, so that is what we did. Here are just a couple of the grand centerpieces we used to decorate this wedding.

Blush colors for a romantic look

Soft and romantic….those were the words our bride, Elizabeth Lombardino expressed for the look she wanted for her wedding at the Factory. We used lush garden roses, astilbe,dusty miller and mini callas in the bouquets. Thanks to Andrea Hallgren for the fantastic photos! Also a big thanks to Suzanne Jeffers, owner of Belle Events for planning another beautiful wedding.

Winter already?

Winter event theme feasting table @Cheekwood Aug 16 !

Well……even though the temperature is still in the 90′s, event pros look to the upcoming season and what are the trends. August 16, 2012 was the event sponsored by Perfect Wedding Guide and Cheekwood for the event industry. It was a contest between 3 designers, Branching Out being one of those. Happy to report that we won all the decor divisions, plus Best of Show. We mixed velvet, satin and burlap..along with mercury glass, crystals, birch covered containers, pine cones and deer antlers to give a warm winter’s evening feel. Enjoy!

Smoke color charges and fabulous dinnerware from Music City Tents, placecards from Designs in Paper really made the table a WOW!

Soft colors on a summer night at the Mansion

One of our many beautiful brides this summer season was Bailey Briggs, pictured above. Bailey chose The Governor’s Club as her wedding and reception venue, and a soft color palette. She wanted a romantic southern garden look..as if we had just gone to the garden and cut flowers for the centerpieces. We loved it..and so did Bailey! Enjoy the photos..compliments of Becca YagerPhotography. Thanks, Becca, it was great to work with you.

Garden flowers filled our stemmed glass cylinders on some of the guest tables.

Green, Yellow and Orange Vintage Event

 

We did the flowers last night for the sweetest little event at the Bound’ry  with the fabulous celebrity event planner, Mindy Weiss, in town from Beverly Hills.

We used  brightly colored, tight arrangements in vintage containers that really popped in the darkened room.

We used a variety of specialty roses, Gerber daisies, giant bright yellow spider mums, hydrangeas and amaranth to get the look.
