Ahhh the Mills Estate. One of my all time favorite Hudson Valley locations! Whitney and Todd really wanted a natural feel to their day. They chose this location not really for the beautiful historic estate, but more for the beautiful and serene Hudson River views. I think this location is a home run for any event because you have the best of both worlds, gorgeous mansion to your left, beautiful river to your right!
Whitney brought us her own bark covered containers which we filled with a combination of Hydrangeas, White Spider (or Fuji) Mums, Freesia, and Star of Bethlehem. She really wanted her centerpieces to be mostly white with just pops of green. Although Whitney loved some rustic trends, she really didn’t want garden style centerpieces. She requested much more “formal” floral designs, yet asked that they placed in rustic containers. The overall effect was just lovely! I especially LOVED making her bouquet, finally a chance to use Lady Slipper Orchids! Whitney and Todd incorporated a lot of kraft paper in their favors and stationary, so to give a little nod to that tan tone, we incorporated Magnolia leaves. We also had chance to create a beautiful escort table for their guests incorporating lots of mosses, large vessels filled with floating candles, and lots of river rocks and loose blooms. It really was a beautiful day, with a beautiful couple! Check out these beautiful images from Photographics Solutions. The first one is one of my FAVORITES of 2013!
Congratulations Whitney and Todd, we wish you all the very best!!!
