Spring Weddings

March 26, 2011


Jacqueline & Nick were married and held their reception at 128 South. This beautiful and classic wedding was so cute that it has been featured on Wilmington Weddings Blog!! White and green was the main color scheme and Jacqueline carried a beautiful bouquet of Parrot Tulips. Button mums, roses, calla lilies and tulips all in shades of white and green looked great against the brick inside 128 South. Check out the blog for photos and more about this wonderful day!

April now has photos posted on our Facebook page thanks to the very talented team at KMI Photography!

Angela was wed at the Blockade Runner on Wrightsville Beach. She loved color, texture and unique flowers. She carried a bouquet of swamp lilies, fern curls, mango calla lilies, Mocarra orchids, ogofolium, & billy balls in shades of yellow & burnt orange. (my pics)



Megan & George
This elegant couple celebrated their love at Kenan Chapel and The Nicklaus Clubhouse in Landfall. They had exquisite taste and wanted all the flowers to be in shades of white and ivory to compliment the gold Chivari chairs and gold pin tuck linens. Megan carried a bouquet of different types of roses and gardenias that brought tears to her eyes! At Landfall the centerpieces were built in tall, medium and short silver containers using roses, peonies and hydrangea all in white and ivory. KMI Photography got amazing shots! See more photos on our FaceBook page.

Alison & Ted were married at Surf City on this sunny Sunday. Blue sea glass and starfish complimented our arrangements of white callas, white stock, blue iris, blue corn flower, & yellow wax. Check out the slideshow by Matt Mcgraw.

Gorgeous Joanna exchanged vows with her hubby at Lebanon Chapel and celebrated their love at 128 South. She carried one of our all time favorite bouquets of hydrangea, dusty miller, peonies, Parrot tulips, lisianthus, stock, & scabiosa in all white and green. We teamed up with the lovely ladies at A Shindig Events & created a natural, fun, gardeny look. At the reception we used an eclectic assortment of containers filled with hydrangea, agapanthis, hyacinth, delphinium, roses, iris and more! All in cool, pale shades like cream, pale blue, yellow and coral. Jacobus Photography took beautiful shots!






4/23/2011

Danielle and Mark exchanged vows at Southside Baptist Church and then took the celebration downtown to 128 South. Danielle loved purple so her flowers were all in shades of purple with white mixed in. We used hydrangea, roses, calla lilies, dendrobium & cymbidium orchids to create her vision.




Monica & Jason
Monica loved the idea of incorporating branches into her centerpieces and had very classy & unique taste in flowers. Beau Rivageset the perfect scene for the celebration of love for these two! Monica carried a unique, almost cascading bouquet of blue hydrangea, orange gladiolas and white phaelionopsis orchids down the aisle that lead her to her husband under a beautiful tree. Her bridesmaids and groomsmen wore chocolate brown dresses and suits making the blue and orange pop. Inside, the reception was amazing!. Votives hung elegantly from Manzanita branches that were coming out of blue hydrangea and covered in orange Gladiolas. More photos to come from photographer Jason Hudson.





4/30/2011

Susan & Adam exchanged vows at Kenan Chapel where Susan carried a bouquet of hydrangea, cymbidium & dendrobium orchids and star of Bethlehem in all white and green with black and white ostrich feathers as an accent. They then headed to the other side of town to Cape Fear Country Club for their reception. Using Fuji mums, variegated hosta, hanging amaranthis and Phaelionopsis Orchids we created a beautiful setting with very clean lines and modern style.


Jacquline & Tim
Kate, Erica & Kathy all headed over to Bald Head Island for Jacqueline and Tim’s wedding weekend. They had tons of family and friends come to the island and took very good care of them. They had a welcome party, a rehearsal dinner, a bridesmaids luncheon, a Saturday morning brunch and then the wedding! Millie Hollaman Photography  did the photos and there will be many more (real professional ones) coming soon!

Wedding Season Has Begun!

 
Not only are we super excited (and busy!) about all the upcoming weddings this year, but we also just got some work with Screen Gems! We couldn't be more excited or feel more priveledged to be working with the once again booming movie/tv business in Wilmington! Catch a glimpse of our flowers in the upcoming pilots "Revenge" and "Hart of Dixie!"

Just a quick snapshot of one arrangment done for ScreenGems

 
 
This past weekend on April 2, three lucky couples got hitched! Social Butterfly Events coordinated Courtney & Chris's wedding even through the gusts of wind on Wrightsville Beach. The bride & groom then headed downtown where 128 South was covered in pink to celebrate their reception. Tulips, tulips, tulips & more tulips filled Courtney's bouquets and table arrangements. Check out some snapshots below, but more photos coming soon from Bella Rose Photography.


Check out the wind!



Caren became Mrs. Glenn as she exchanged vows with her new hubby at Kenan Chapel. Caren and her bridesmaids carried gorgous bouquets of white & green hydrangea dotted with purple tulips and dendrobium and cymbidium orchids wrapped in varigated hasta leaves. Her reception was held at the Surf Club on Wrightsville Beach where her classic and beautful table arrangements went perfectly. Her reception arrangements were mostly green and white using parrot tulips (my faves!) white & green hydrangea and varigated hosta.

April & Steven had an early afternoon ceremony at Airlie Pergola Gardens. April loved purple and loved the rustic look. Her natural looking bouquets were spectacular and fulled with white & green hydrnagea, peonies, stock, campunilia, & ranuculous in shades of purple from lavender to super dark. Her reception brought the rustic, southern feel to the very modern Cameron Art Museum. Her tables had cedar disks of wood with lanterns and arrangemtns in mason jars on top of the disks. Her arrangements were all different and used a mix of the same flowers in the bouquets in all shades of purple. More photos from KMI Photography coming soon.

Working Hard!

The Fiore team has been working hard! We had two successful wedding shows in January and a great Valentine's Day! In January we put on the Landfall Showcase at The Dye Club on the 15th and worked with some of our faves! Kickstand Events, Social Butterfly Events & A Shindig Southern Events designed three gorgeous, unique looks. KMI Photography took some great shots! The following day we had a sparkling booth at the Cape Fear Wedding Expo downtown at the Schwartz Center. Check out the photos taken by Indigosilver.
Valentine's Day was super busy, as to be expected! Some beautiful arrangements went out the door & hopefully made a lot of people smile!
We are gearing up for wedding season and can't wait to see our designs come alive on the happiest day of a girl's life!
