Zingermans Cornman Farms Wedding Flowers | Ann Arbor wedding florist

 

Cornman Farms hosts the most beautiful intimate weddings. It always feels so special to have the whole beautiful grounds to yourself and your friends and family. It is such an amazing and beautiful place, and it shows off whatever the season in Michigan so beautifully. For Lauren and Johnnie, the flowers were a textural palette of lush greens and white blooms. The orchids added throughout were a nod to Lauren’s grandmother - they were her favorite. Thank you to Lola Grace Photography for these beautiful images.

 

Black Barn Summer Wedding | Ann Arbor Wedding Flowers

 

This ceremony spot at for Ellen and Chad at Black Barn Wedding Venue and Winery was so perfectly dreamy. So many details were just so beautiful and sophisticated. Loved this feature design we did for the reception table - it’s a sweetheart table of dreams. All so beautifully captured by Casey and Her Camera. Congratulations Ellen & Chad!

 

Autumn Downtown Ann Arbor Wedding | Red Poppy Wedding Flowers

 

Downtown Ann Arbor is just gorgeous in the fall - it’s such a lovely time for a wedding when all your friends and family can walk downtown for drinks and brunch and enjoy all the new art and murals downtown - so special! It was such a joy to get to create these flowers for Miranda and Harry’s wedding downtown - with a ceremony at the Ann Arbor Art Center and reception at Zingerman’s Greyline. The Greyline is a freshly renovated old downtown bus station, with the classic bus station signage still out front and a sophisticated, retro vibe inside. I loved designing these chuppah flowers against the brick walls at the Ann Arbor Art Center - a perfect warm terracotta tone for an autumn day. Thank you to Abby Rose Photo for these beautiful images!

 

Frutig Farms The Valley Wedding Flowers | Ann Arbor Wedding Florist

 

The outside spaces at Frutig Farms The Valley are just magical. It’s amazing to have a perfectly serene, natural space with long views of waving grasses in the sun - just ten minutes from town. It’s such a special place! It was a joy to get to create these pieces for Max and Molly, who waited patiently to get to celebrate with family and friends. Lots of greens and textures and eucalyptus, and blush and burgundy blooms for a natural and sophisticated feel. Gold accents in the candles for a warm glow. Congratulations, Max and Molly! Beautiful images by Nicole Haley Photography.

 

Elegant Downtown Detroit Wedding | Westin Book Cadillac | Red Poppy Floral Design

 

So worth the wait! Ramona and Dan were so patient with rescheduling their wedding. I believe meeting with Ramona and her mom in person in 2019 was the last in person meeting I had before everything moved virtual in March. So it was a really long wait until their December 2021 wedding. The plan was always to celebrate at The Westin Book Cadillac in Detroit, but the change to a December wedding I think really enhanced the elegant, sophisticated, feel. All the candlelight and the soft gold colors in a romantically lit room - it was gorgeous. I loved adding a bold pop of raspberry, cranberry, blush, apricot, and gold tones into the flowers. This was all shot so beautifully by Nicole Haley Photography - so many beautiful details - Ramona’s Indian ceremony outfit and her reception dress! And the cake by Sweet Heather Anne that matched her dress is just stunning. Congratulations Ramona and Dan - it was a joy to celebrate with you!

Cornman Farms intimate wedding | Red Poppy Wedding Flowers

 

Ending the year with a beautiful elopement at Cornman Farms in December. All the coziness of a winter wedding, with enough sunshine for an outside ceremony in front of the gorgeous white house with festive garlands on the balcony. A winter flower palette can be such fun - this one featured mauve, lavender, amethyst purple with amnesia roses, snapdragons, lisianthus, thistle, clematis, fern, eucalyptus, and matthiola. Thank you to Adore Wedding Photography for these beautiful images.

 

Cornman Farms Summer Wedding | Ann Arbor Wedding Flowers

 

Every detail was so thoughtfully put together for Melissa and Matt at Zingerman’s Cornman Farms. Melissa’s mom owned her own floral shop, so it was a real honor to be entrusted with Melissa’s wedding Flowers. With an elegant Beauty and the Beast theme, we used rich reds, burgundys, mauve, pink and golden tones. Thank you so much to Lola Grace Photography for these beautiful images.

2020 brought so many challenges. So many weddings were rescheduled and changed and adjusted, and we were so grateful for those that could celebrate safely. Alana and Guillaume changed their wedding from UMMA to Alana’s home, and their celebration was just beautiful. So many beautiful colors and tones and textures made for bouquets and arrangements that were at home “at home” but also elegant and special. It was the best of both both worlds - a special, elegant celebration with the unique comforts of being at home. The chuppah design was bright and lush, and we loved all these beautiful images by Amanda Dumouchelle of Inly.

 

Michigan League Wedding | Ann Arbor Wedding Flowers

 

This was the time last year when the white lilac was in perfect bloom at just the right time. It was magnificent. Though we can often order lots of different flowers and materials, nature still has some special things that you can only really get locally and for a limited amount of time. So when you get one of those special things at the right time, it can feel that bit extra special - a little bit of magic.

And I couldn’t have been more happy for all of these beautiful things for Shannon and Michael. Everything about this day was joyful. Their friends and family were so fantastic and fun - I remember all during set up this group was just having a wonderful time - it felt like a celebration already and it was a joy to be a part of it.

Together with the lilac, these pieces featured anemone, garden roses, hellebore, orchids, ranunculus, astrantia - so many beautiful things! We had the most amazing chuppah by modernly events and I just loved the chuppah decor here. So many lovely accents in classic navy and art deco design details (those bridesmaid dresses!) and the cake! There is joy in every gorgeous picture by Matt & Ashley - there is not a one in the bunch where these two aren’t enjoying every minute. Beautiful, classic, joyful family celebration - it was such an honor to be a part of this very special day.
