ERIN & CLAYTON

WEDDING

at a GLANCE

"Clayton & Erin might only fight about one thing during their marriage - which is better, the Star Wars franchise or Harry Potter!

They booked an Air B&B home to get ready in and enjoy their first look together, and I have to say, one of the most touching moments was when they handed out gifts to every family member in the house. The bride's dress whooshed with joy as she handed letters and custom presents to each person in the room, on her own wedding day, and even handed me a letter with my favorite wine! They are celebrating their marriage with a wild reception this summer, and I am so honored to be a small part of this incredible season!"

"I think one of the sweetest moments was when the bride and groom gave custom gifts to each wedding attendee (less than 20) before they left the Air B'n'B for the ceremony at the Myriad Gardens."

"They are a gamer couple who love to play video games. He is obsessed with Star Wars, and she, Harry Potter, so they incorporated some wickedly cool props in their ring shots and first look! "

This whimsically styled shoot was majestically nestled in a 5-acre pecan grove situated in the middle of 50 acres of breathtaking property on the outskirts of Norman, Oklahoma. The Chateau At Feather Creek is a unique and captivating property that allows for you to create the wedding of your dreams. This inspirational shoot was designed and delivered by Danielle Throckmorton, planner and creative director of Throckmorton Event Coordinating, and captured by Photographer, Lydia Royce, with Lydia Royce Photography.

Borrowed & Bleu provided the beautiful and timeless pieces that included the of a kind backdrop for the ceremony, the antique sweetheart table, blush and amber stemware, and the stunning chandelier over the featured sweetheart table. Occasions Paper provided the stunning menus and invitations tying in the moss green, grey, gold, silver,

and blush from the invitations over into the one of a kind place settings provided by Tulips Home and Gift.

The shoot took place in the early stages of spring. To accentuate the gorgeous time of year, the planners really focused on the breathtaking florals popping-up around this time. Lily Grass floral and décor and the designer exchanged some creative ideas and inspiration in order to bring this shoot to life. The floral needed to be out of the ordinary and have the natural elements tied in, so as a special touch, the designer requested that feathers be incorporated into the floral arrangements to truly connect the shoot with the name of the venue.

Chantilly Couture had a cap sleeve gown by Ivy & Aster fit for a princess.

The gown had a floor length tulle skirt and keyhole back that added to the fairytale feel of this shoot. Brittany Aldridge Artistry was on hand to create the flawless face that every bride wants. Jewels on loan from Mitchell’s Jewelry finished off the bride’s look. Our groom was dressed head to toe with manly perfection, PinPoint Resource.

Rent My Airstreams provided a super unique bridal dressing suite that is often used as a venue on the go. It’s the perfect backdrop to an outdoor wedding. The Benestar Ranch brought the most incredibility beautiful Stallion that made for a unique photo opportunity to tie in with the Chateau’s Feather Creek equestrian activities.

The perfect getaway after a wedding at The Chateau at Feather Creek would be in one of the many carriages offered

by Cowboy Carriage! Finally, we can’t say enough about Alumni Productions, their videographer skills captured our entire vision. www.okcweddingideas.com

5 FACTORS

that determine the price of wedding flowers

by Kylie Leimer, owner Rootstock Floral Design After meeting with a floral designer, many brides are surprised to find the cost of wedding flowers exceed their allotted budget. Creating a Pinterest perfect wedding doesn’t happen overnight! It involves months of preparation, time and cost all rooted in the consultation.

Here, we have broken down a few key points explaining the tedious world of cut flowers, because you deserve to have a floral frenzy on your Big Day!

32

Be Inspired. Be Beautiful. Be Wed.

www.okcweddingideas.com

33

1 | TIME The initial consultation: Don’t worry, floral designers always come to meetings prepared, even if you aren’t! They are here to guide you through the process of finding your style, selecting your flower types to fit within your budget and help you understand the process moving forward. The initial consultation can last 3 hours, with additional get togethers and conversations leading up to your wedding day.

All of the final details will be worked out the month of the wedding - Your floral order will be placed, insuring that all the chosen flowers are on crop at farms all over the world, if not adjustments will be made to give you the same look and feel. A timeline and job description is constructed for all the hired team members. Shop hopping for matching ribbon colors, vases and decor can be a timely task, sometime lasting weeks.

Flowers are most often received 5 days before they are to be delivered This allows ample time for them to fully 34

open, showing their beauty. Processing a bulk order of blossoms is very labor intensive and continues through the week with recutting and water changes. The day before is when all the bouquets, centerpieces and complimentary creations are crafted and stored in a cooler until the following morning to maintain freshness.

2 | THE BIG DAY! There is a lot to finalize on the morning of, from boutonnieres to flower crowns.

Delivering everything can be a challenge - situating all of the designs as ensure they will not be damaged in transit. Upon arrival to the venue, every item must be accounted for and placed.

Any additional creations made on site are prepped. An archway floral alone averages 2 hours followed by aisle decor, garland construction etc‌ When the night is over your florist will return to the venue for breakdown, picking up all remaining blooms. The cost in labor for the day before/of is most often your florists highest expense.

3 | FLORAL COST Bridal florals, from local farmers and wholesalers, are distinctive from those you see at grab and go stations in stores. Flowers most desired for weddings vary in price greatly, sometimes exceeding $5 per stem wholesale.

When you multiply that by 20 stems per arrangement, plus greenery, each table piece adds up quickly. Florists also order extra to ensure the most beautiful blooms are used in the designs.

4 | ART OF FLORAL DESIGN There is an art to creating floral designs - Involving hours of labor and thought into each composition. Every bouquet has at least 30 components, boutonnieres are hand-wrapped and centerpieces entail each stem to be cut and strategically placed. Upon completion, each item is checked for generous amounts of water and carefully placed in a cooler.

5 | TEAM CREATIVE Crafting wedding florals requires many hands and creative minds to transform vision into reality. Hiring a team costs your florist in labor, adding to the overall price of your flowers. There is a lot of prep work involved, from installations to gathering materials, that takes a clever crew.

5 REASONS WHY BRIDES SHOULD DO A

Portrait Session Resident Expert, Christie Conyer, shares.

Be Inspired. Be Beautiful. Be Wed.

1 Extra Time Normally, time doesn’t allow for big portrait sessions on a wedding day. The Big Day becomes more relaxed knowing we have already gotten gorgeous shots of the bride in her dress! We get to choose the perfect lighting and a venue or backdrop to indulge the brides wildest dreams.

2 Have a Run Through This is also a perfect time to do a run through with hair, makeup, shoes etc. To see what works and doesn’t feel right for the wedding day. I have many brides realize that their shoes were not going to work or the bracelet she wants to wear keeps snagging her veil. This gives her ample time to make any necessary changes.

3 Mother/Daughter Time One of the biggest benefits (and many times overlooked) is the time the mother of the bride and her daughter share. I have witnessed so many special moments as the mother watches her daughter put on her entire wedding attire for the very first time. It is one of the only chances the two will have a "bridal experience" alone away from the wedding day chaos.

4 Get to Know Your Photographer A pre-wedding day bridal session gives you a chance to get to know your photographer and a chance for her to figure out how to photograph you in the most beautiful way before your wedding day.

5 Show Off What Makes You You It also gives the bride way to express herself, to show off her unique interests, special places, and even do something a little extra special for her future hubby. www.okcweddingideas.com

WEDDING at a GLANCE "This was truly a fairytale wedding! We had a packed house with friends and family to help us celebrate our love. The flowers were gorgeous. We had live music for the wedding using Southwind Hills’ piano and a cello, which sounded phenomenal. The reception was the best party ever! The food was honestly some of the best food I've ever tasted. I still talk about the lamb lollipops with our guests. Everyone had an absolute blast, and there was a lively vibe all night. The dance floor was packed until the reception ended. We were delighted with every aspect of the wedding day.

Southwind Hills handled everything so professionally!"

GRACE & JEROD

"The ceremony/reception took place on the property at the bride’s childhood home. Truly a backyard wedding where people took their shoes off, even me. Lots of the wedding details and touches were in memory of her mom–having wildflowers picked from the property lining the aisle was significant because her mom had had wildflowers at her wedding. The bride had a first look with her dad and grandfather. It was meaningful since both had taken part in raising her."

NANCY & SHAWN

WEDDING

at a GLANCE

"Nancy and Shawn met through a mutual friend in 2007, 6 months later they started dating. After both swearing they would never get married or have children, the couple tied the knot on February 26, 2013. Truly coming full-circle, the mutual friend they met through went on to become a pastor and was the officiant at their wedding! The night was very untraditional and intimate. It was done at Cafe Pranzo on a "cold Tuesday night" and the only people that were at their wedding were Nancy's parents, Shawn's mom and sister, and their friend CJ Wilson. Sadly, the couple doesn’t have many pictures from their wedding. Flash forward to 2017 and Nancy and Shawn have been married for five years, have a beautiful daughter and finally have beautiful wedding photos!"
