As you might have read in the post before this, one of my dearest friends, Kayla, got married last June. I was so honored when she asked me to help with her wedding...and I got to be a bridesmaid too!
Now Kayla is super talented and creative on her own...she did most everything all by herself and it turned out amazing! But I did get to help her with her flowers. It was quite an adventure!
We went downtown to the LA Flower District bright and early (6am!) the day before the wedding and got everything we needed for bouquets, boutonnieres and centerpieces and then we had a party at the Bride's house where her family and friends all pitched in to put them together! Each Bridesmaid got to design her own bouquet, choosing the flowers herself and I helped Kayla design her Bridal bouquet...it was such a fun day and I was so happy to be involved!

At the Flower District...love the color on those peonies! |

Construction begins! These are our 'concentrating' faces... |
|
...we smiled too, though! |
