Meagan + Dave

 Meagan was referred to me by my dear friend Robin. When I first met with her she had so many cool ideas to put her own stamp on their nuptials that I couldn’t wait to see everything tied together. One of my favorites (aside from the flowers of course!) were the hand typed invitations on an old typewriter. I bet you’re re-reading that saying “What?” Who still has a typewriter around? And, who has the time to hand type all the invites? Well, she did and they were so fabulous! Nothing sets the tone and gives the guests a glimpse of the wedding details to come like the invitation does.


The intimate ceremony and reception were both held at Sun In My Belly cafe. Deciding to buck tradition, Meagan and Dave took pictures together before the ceremony as well as mingled with guests before the ceremony started. Afterwards Meagan changed into her wedding dress to meet Dave under the chuppah held by family.

For flowers Meagan collected vintage coffee, tea and tobacco containers which we filled with mums, dahlias, craspedia, berries, scabiosa, thistle, amaranthus, safari sunset to name a few. For her bouquet, we tied everything together with burlap wrapping and accented it with an owl brooch that belonged to her Grandmother.
