Ida and Matt

 Matt and Ida were united in marriage on February 28, 2015 in Cottonwood MN. It was a joy and pleasure to work with this incredible couple! Ida, who has a background in design, came in so prepared with a detailed vision of what their wedding would look like. I asked what the colors of the wedding would be....but what I did not expect was for Ida to take out several different paint chip samples in these gorgeous subdued hues that were all different but blended together so beautifully. They were stunning and this just started the ball rolling! Ida and I went back and forth bouncing ideas of each other and by the end of our appointment, we were almost finishing each others sentences. We discovered quickly that we shared similar thinking, with creative minds that really never shut off. Matt was also a delight to work with.... I admired him for coming along to the appointment (not many finances tag along for this step in the process) One of my favorite parts of my job is watching a couple interact....seeing the pure joy and excitement on their faces....Matt and Ida are so deeply in love that is just warmed my heart! It was truly and honor to work this this lovely couple!

I would like to give credit to Megan Daas Photography for these fabulous photographs!

I also want to thank my friend Andrew for referring this amazing couple to Blessings & Blossoms.....Since Andrew is employed at Gertens Greenhouse in Inver Grove Heights...I will be contacting him soon to see if these fabulous garden roses can be grown in Minnesota! Thank you again Andy!



Ida's bridal bouquet....I am head over heels in love with this bouquet! It honestly looks like a painting with the textures, color and perfection of the individual flowers. The stunning blush O'Hara and peach Juliet garden roses.....all I can say is WOW!

I incorporated cinnamon sticks into all the bouts and corsages. It not only added a fun and unique texture but they smelled delicious too!

Stunning bridesmaid dresses! They looked so delicate and elegant!

I am not 100% sure about this...but I'm going to guess four lovely sisters here!
