Small scale hanging floral decor makes a huge impact

The following is a guest blog post from Anne Bradfield, Floressence, florist at Novelty Hill-Januik Winery during the 2016 Weddings in Woodinville wedding show and tour.

Ceiling installations have peaked in recent months, with all manner of floral and foliage hanging in every possible way. We were excited to show how a smaller scale hanging installation could enhance the intimacy of the Cask Room at Novelty Hill Januik Winery. By creating two parallel lines of green — on the tabletop and on the gorgeous wood ceiling -- the room got cozier, a little more romantic, a little more magical. And (we think) perfect for a rehearsal dinner or cozy celebration for just a handful of your nearest and dearest.

Greek, African & American Seattle Wedding from New Creations Weddings

There is just so much to love in this real wedding from New Creations Weddings. This multi-cultural Greek, African, and American wedding celebrated the heritage of this beautiful couple. We are inspired by the vibrant use of colors in every element from the uplighting to the hand-made sugar bougainvillea on the wedding cake. 

From the Planner, Rebecca Grant of New Creations Weddings: "Haroula and Dave's Greek/African and American wedding day was as close to a perfect wedding day as you can get. With the stunning Seattle summer we had last year, in addition to the gorgeous bright and vibrant colors, this wedding was a dream. The rich color palette of purples, pinks, yellows and oranges jumped out beautifully from Within Sodo's dark backdrop. The Edison bulb chandelier was definitely a favorite too, used as the backdrop for the ceremony, then again for the head table. Nods to the bride growing up in Africa were abundant through the use of colors and tropical flowers. Even the cake had hand-made sugar flower bougainvillea harkening to the abundance of the flower in Africa. Haroula's Greek heritage was brought in during the dancing, and although we couldn't break the plates, napkins were thrown about instead.  

What a fun, perfect wedding this day was!"
