Before we fully immerse ourselves in this wintery wedding weekend we wanted to leave you with an incredible video from the talented Georgina Szabo of {Weddings on Film}. If you are considering whether or not to hire a videographer, here is the perfect example of why you should. The musically inclined couple hired the Church of John Coltrane to officiate and the soundtrack of their wedding is so poignant you might find yourself misty eyed like we did.

To view the video please follow the link {Jette and Nic Wedding Video}.

Happy Weekend,

Each place setting had a confetti popper for guests to pull when the clock struck twelve. The perfect way to tie wedding and holiday together! Enjoy these elegant photos captured by {Brion Hopkins}.

We are pleased and honored that the wedding of Katie and Lee has been featured on {Style Me Pretty}. What more can we say about the stunning detail, classic color scheme and subtly modern design of this San Francisco wedding? In our humble opinion the {San Francisco Ferry Building} has never looked so good.

White phalaeonopsis orchids atop gleaming glass columns compliment the height and stunning architecture of the Ferry Building. Small details in apple green and navy blue tie everything together beautifully. Special thanks to {Lori Paladino Photography} for capturing each and every exquisite detail.

A lovely Spring wedding we did earlier this year was recently featured on the ultimate modern wedding blog {Brooklyn Bride}.

When the bride, Amanda first came to the Soulflower studio it was to attend one of our fun flower classes. One thing led to another and she asked us to provide the florals for her upcoming wedding. The next time she came to the Soulflower studio it was to join us in hosting a private flower class as a thank you to her bridal party. You may remember it from a previous {blog post}. We toasted to Amanda, played a little bride trivia, and everyone left with their own centerpiece, stunning if we might add as you can see below.

The ceremony and reception were held at the {White Palace}, a beautiful, modernized Victorian home that served as the perfect backdrop for white and coral florals.

Visit our Facebook page to see the entire wedding album featuring photography by {Steep Street}.

Cheers to great friends and great memories,
Lydia
