Kathleen & Andrew: Hampshire House, Boston, MA

Kathleen and Andrew had a small intimate wedding at the Hampshire House in Boston, MA.  Because it was an early morning wedding, I needed to be in Boston by 7:30AM, so I didn't have time to take my usual bouquet pictures before leaving.  The two below are a couple I snapped in the car on the way in.

The bride and her MOH carried bouquets of peonies, roses, berries, dusty miller, succulents, and spray roses.

 One of the great things about the Hampshire House is that you get to use your centerpieces for both the ceremony and the reception.  The centerpieces were a mix of various sized arrangements, clustered together to compliment books tied with ribbon that were also on the tables.  For the ceremony, the arrangements were placed around the room on the mantel and in the bookcases that lined the walls.

The mantel was simply decorated with pillar candles and one small arrangement on each side.

Arrangements made up of peonies, roses, calla lilies, and stock.

A memorial wreath was created in honor of the Groom's mother.  Some of her favorite flowers were the fuschia and African Violets, so we used purple and hot pink flowers, such as lisianthus, spray roses and gerbera daisies to mirror the colors of her favorite flowers.

Nicole & Joe: Seaport Hotel, Boston, MA

Nicole and Joe got married at the church at Boston College, and had their reception in the Lighthouse room at the Seaport Hotel in Boston, MA.  The Seaport Hotel & World Trade Center is one of my absolute favorite wedding venues, especially since it's where I got married!  I loved being back in the Lighthouse room, and Nicole and Joe had a great blue, white and green color scheme to compliment the surroundings of the room.

Adriana & Robert: Omni Parker House, Boston, MA

Adriana and Robert had their reception at the Omni Parker House in Boston, MA.  The Omni (although one of the more challenging venues to deliver to) is one of my favorite Boston wedding venues, especially since my sister got married there in October 2011.  Their wedding was featured on the Omni Hotels & Resorts website, photos by Heather Parker Photography.  Not only does the Omni have a stunning ballroom, but the event coordinators and hotel staff are always extremely nice and accommodating.  Adriana actually found me through finding pictures of my sisters wedding bouquet online, which is why their bouquets were quite similar!  Got to love those Picasso calla lilies!

Adriana was so easy to work with.  She had a great idea of the colors and details she wanted to make this such an elegant affair.  Along with the flowers, she incorporated crystal and silver candle holders around the reception space.  Adriana was so sweet to post such a kind review on Wedding Wire, especially so soon after her wedding!

"Allison was a complete dream to work with from the beginning of my wedding planning until the day of the wedding. I planned my wedding from Florida, so there was a lot of email communication, and Allison was always quick to respond. I even had other table decor shipped to her and she brought it to our hotel and set it up. I never even saw our flowers until we walked into the reception room and was totally amazed. She has a great eye for floral design, and I would recommend her in a heartbeat. THANK YOU!"

Thank you Adriana, and congratulations to you and Robert!
