A Bit About Bess
Bess Wyrick Bess Wyrick’s firm, Celadon & Celery specializes in the art of design and event concepts, with attention to quality and detail: combining shapes, materials, textures and innovative aesthetics to create memorable occasions. They offer planning, as well as styling and design: styling is a vehicle to showcase beauty, in hotels, resorts, or private homes–each has their own personality, and the first step is pinpointing the unique intricacies of each location. The production of putting together events of every scale excites them with all the specifics that go into coordinating the vendors, the venues, the design aesthetics and the details, whether it is local or abroad. When styling photo shoots or locations, the architectural details provide inspiration; we combine items native to the property with props from our creative craft dealers to complement your personalities and any venue. Their vision is to recreate the space with truly authentic pieces, pushing beyond flowers, fabrics and decor to construct elaborate presentations that are reflective and representative of the time, occasion and season.

Design and Styling
Design and Styling Design affects all that we experience; with Bess’ inspired and organic styling’s the layers of life begin to unfold. Bess loves to utilize simple, organic and visually beautiful elements in her designs. Her lifestyle embraces her design philosophy and she believes in taking time each day to make something pretty. Creating settings and “Vignetting" has been a lifelong process of exploration within her career. Styling started at an early age for Bess, as a child she would rearrange her room, dragging porcelain vases into the hallway to highlight the entrance. Inside she would create to a stylized setting for her fantasy afternoon luncheon where she would entertain her family. Today Bess’s natural talents for beautifully manipulating the three dimensional world is evident. Organic elements; floral , fauna, and fabric are juxtaposed with the human and industrial to create magical settings and beautiful images. Bess explores the moment of inception where inspiration takes seed and designs are born. Reaching beyond the surface she uncovers the depth of passion, inspired creation, global platforms, humor, sexuality, relationships and social interaction.
Jamie BeckHas created a blog that captures your attention in seconds. That's how it was for me when I saw her feature on BBC for her cinemagraphs with husband Kevin Burg. I was mesmerized in seconds and immediately found myself creating the floral crown concept for her beauty and editorial shoots. It was love from day one with both of us being Texas girls and playing dress up with elegant gowns and lush, gorgeous blooms. In a short few months we have collaborated on 3 shoots which produced a series of 4 floral crown that were featured on her blog and a shoot with PMT model Edyh Hughes in the Reem Acra campaign for fall. Working with Jamie is a dream. our collaborations have created ethereal images that have inspired my obsession for floral crowns.
Belladonna ExhibitCaitlin Mitchell is a high fashion and lingered photographer with a knack for capturing sensual, elegant and fine art portraits. We met a year ago at a mutual friends birthday party and instantly had creative chemistry. That night this concept for the shoot came alive and 6 months later we shot vicotiea secret Angela Bellotte on a cold day in January in the studio. I made floral crowns, draped garlands of amyrlis, and styled the collection Lethal Belladonna.
May 21st we celebrated the collection of Belladonna that was hosted at my friends home. The collection was well received and was picked up by Gosian Galleries and also sold at private collection from buyers at Paddle8.
