I was fortunate enough to do her sister’s, Tammi’s, wedding flowers and then I get to do Traci’s too! Can’t wait to do the next family member/friend’s wedding:) This one took place at the absolutely gorgeous venue, the Stillwater Library.
Yes, those ARE glass door knob pulls, plum Lady Slipper Orchids, and beaded Bear Grass… HOT, right?!?
Ahhhh, Mendakota, how I love setting up (and even better, tearing down) there. The staff is so extremely helpful! Jessica and Tate were fabulous to work with!
This lovely bride coined my style, Earthy Elegance- Thanks! I found out the groom was an avid fisherman so I added one of my uncle, Tod’s, hand made flys to his boutonniere. I especially loved the centerpieces we made on the wood rounds from a tree felled on Margot’s grandfather’s land. We came up with these fantastic centerpieces together in my studio days before her wedding. Once I can figure out how to get her professional pictures by Barbara Pickens uploaded I will post them, they are gorgeous! In the meantime, you’ll have to deal with mine…
A review from the bride on Wedding Wire:
Carra is OUTSTANDING.
During our first meeting, we sat down together and created a list of everything I wanted to include in my wedding flowers. We looked through books and past work she had done. She had fresh fruit and other refreshments waiting for me and my mom when we arrived and she had an estimate e-mailed to me the very next day! That was impressive. I had already visited two other florists who said they would send estimates but they never did. Her estimate was extremely detailed. She was open to letting me provide what I could such as candles for the centerpieces if it would save me some money. When I delivered the candles to her place a week before the wedding, we hung out in her studio for a bit re-working the centerpiece arrangement so it would be perfect. It was fun because I felt like I was a part of the process rather than simply hiring someone else to do it and waiting nervously to see the product. I had to eliminate some items from the estimate and though it may have been disappointing to her, it did not affect the quality and service she provided with the rest. My wedding flowers were more beautiful and more spectacular than I ever imagined they would be. I will be giving Carra’s contact info to everyone I know!
