Robin is a canadian botanist who thanks to Ladawn from Platinum Lining Events came to us with some of the most original ideas for her special day.


With her centerpiece we used blooming kumquats, succulents, eucalyptus leaves, lavenders and specific anemones, spray roses and ranunculus. All sitting in a vintage silver plated urn that resembled a 17th century still painting!
As always we would like to thanks the talented team at Desi Baytan photography. Desi and Connie are the talented duo behind these amazing shots!
To accent we used curly willow napking rings and loose succulents and organic green moss in her cocktail hour decorations.



Her bouquet was a simple large posie with lots of green deco including lavender, eucalyptus, lemon leaves and gardenia leaves that represented her botanist background and finished off with cherry brandy, freedom ecuadorean roses and pink peonies to give it a pretty wedding feel.
