One of us tied the knot!

In June, one of our designers said "I do!" Michelle and her husband decided on an intimate ceremony in the national seashore of northern California. Even a private elopement isn't complete without flowers!

In the quiet town north of San Francisco where they chose to wed, Michelle found flowers that local farmers sell at the feed barn in town. She also clipped some blooms from the garden of the house they rented (with the owner's approval, of course!). She designed her bouquet and floral crown with butterfly bush, poppy pods, calla lilies, snap dragons, scabiosa, and seeded eucalyptus.

They said their vows under the weeping willow in the backyard and then set off to take pictures. They wandered down to the opening of the bay, adventured into a trail head, and met sunset at an abandoned boat.

 (The husband and wife photography duo of Helena and Laurent Photographer captured the day and were also the witnesses to their nuptials!)

We wish Michelle and her husband lots of love, happiness, and magical moments in their life together!

I love my job. I get to work with such fabulous people and experience amazing cultures. This wedding was so great. Thanks to Binita for sharing this video with us!

Bouquet Loveliness

Studio 539 Flowers is so excited to have a bouquet on the cover of Newport Wedding Magazine for 2012!! We were delighted to learn that one of our brides, Natalie, was being featured.

The mainly yellow bouquet was jazzed up with yellow roses, craspedia, white calla lillies, white hydrangea, lisianthus, and a tiny pop of green in hypericum berry. His boutonniere featured a starfish with green accent.

Make sure to stop in the store (starting in November) and check out the whole magazine feature, or purchase your own copy on a newsstand. The pictures in the magazine are by the amazing Michelle Carpenter Photography!

While we have been extremely busy with weddings, store arrangements, and deliveries, we wanted to give you a peak at some of the bouquets that have been keeping our flower designing hands occupied.

The next pic is a broach bouquet made by Christina. It was pretty labor intensive, but sooo worth it. The bouquet (photographed by Studio Nouveau out of Boston) was constructed from broaches collected by the bride.

The next three bouquets are a sampling of texture used in a variety of ways.

This yellow bouquet was soft, yet funky. The solidago added a linear garden feel, while the craspedia and yellow button mums gave a round, modern look. The hypericum berry and lady's mantle added a complimenting green touch, and a light yellow stock brought it all together.


Check out this very textural, elegant white bouquet that combines so many fabulous flowers. Without leaving any out, this bouquet is made of: lysimachia, star of Bethlehem, ornithogalum, stock, calla lilly, lisianthus, freesia, tulip, kale, and a touch of hypericum berry. I'm not sure about you, but I am definitely in love with this one!

The softness and femininity of the bouquet above is breathtaking! With greens, creams, and a soft pink/peach, this bouquet would warm the heart of anyone. It's interesting how so many of the same flowers used in different ways can create such varying looks.

And since pairing a bouquet with the perfect boutonniere is so important.. we wanted to give you a peak at a fabulous shot from Rebecca Hansen Weddings. How awesome is the color of those gerbera daisies?!

Now that I've shared a view of just a few of the fabulous flower creations that have been keeping us so busy, I need to get back to work. - Michelle
