Gorgeous Pink Wedding in Estes Park at Della Terra

We love these early season Peonies & Ranunculus together with hydrangea, spray roses and hybrid tea roses. The wedding's color scheme of gray and pink was perfectly complimented by this combination of texture and shades of pink. We also loved the ruffly scented geranium leaves that added a verbena-like fragrance and a lacy refinement to the whole affair.

Gorgeous Hanging Baskets & Patio Pots

Friends, if you love flowers as much as I do you might like these hanging baskets. Each is 12" in diameter and with your loving care will bloom beautifully until September. They are $35 and I'll be getting them in this Friday and Next. Just in time for Mother's Day! Patio pots in the same size & style are also available. I divided mine and used them to fill my window boxes. Let me know if you need a little something gorgeous for yourself.

A Trip to the Islands







We recently returned from our annual trip to Hawaii with a new appreciation for the term "Rainiest place on earth". The sky was heavy with clouds and it rained, sideways, for most of our trip. We hunkered down, wore all the clothes we brought with us all at one time, visited an orchid farm on one sunny afternoon, and beach combed to our hearts content. It was lovely, in spite of the state of emergency declared by the governor, the tornado, the softball sized hail, and the roads & bridges that were washed out.

Lady Gaga Gets Married




Check out this link to a great video of the ISES Wedding Showcase we did recently. Our table is the one with all of the glass globes suspended over it, terrariums full of succulents and gold nuggets and the amazing model, Emma, with a headpiece that made her look like Lady Gaga!

Spring Wedding Flowers in Bloom at The Seawell Grand Ballroom







Brilliant Blooms had the opportunity to work at the stunning and extremely well-run Seawell Grand Ballroom this past Sunday at their Inaugural Wedding Showcase and Fashion Show.
We chose to fill our designs with a variety of early spring flowers like peonies, hyacinth, tulips, daffodils, scabiosa and chamomile for their beautiful fragrance and rarity. Paired with a chandelier of umbrellas from Splendor for Your Guests, delectables from Gateaux Pastries, and rental items like mismatched vintage china, depression glass cake plates, and antique keys from A Vintage Affair our display was a hit!
