Beth and Stephen - 10.11.2008 - Duran Country Club

Suntree Lutheran Church and Duran Golf Club's restaurant was the perfect setting for this updated, autumnal wedding celebration.  Blooms in warm shades of crimson, orange and golden yellow comprised the unique floral palette, which blended classical flowers such as roses and freesia with stylish, modern florals, including asiatic lilies, macara orchids and hanging heliconia.  

The bridal attendants and bride glowed with nosegays featuring mixed florals, berries and orchids... the men's boutonniere's echoed that motif, featuring a single rose and accompanying berries and foliage.  Mother's carried simple, modern tussie-mussies (the new standard for Thallo moms...) featuring a more neutral palette of porcelina sprays, white mini cymbidiums and freesia.

Tussie-Mussies are a popular choice for Thallo mothers...

The collection of women's flowers, grouped in their personalized vases, for chic and convenient display at the reception.

One of the most serene sanctuaries in Brevard, the church's architecture lended itself well to the clean, updated floral palette and deep shades of red.

The program table, staged by Thallo, added dimension to the foyer and centered the space.

The entrance to the reception, at Duran Golf Club. Guests were greeted by a towering collection of tropical blooms, collared in macara orchids and Australian umbrella fern.  The tabletop featured a carpet of smooth, black river rock and miniature arrangements featuring florals from the reception's palette.  A small glimpse of what was to come...

Guests sat at Tuscan-style tables, with an elongated tablescape including two foliage lined 4" glass cubes featuring florals aforementioned, bended and looped lily grasses and umbrella fern.  Lines of black river rock connected florals together while votives added warmth and ambiance to the table top, which was warmly covered in luxe, golden lamour linen.

Thallo personalized miniature votive candles with red and gold embossed art paper. They marched down the table alongside square votives.

Thallo designed custom table numbers based on the bride's desired color palette, the season and the venue's interior.

The gold cymbidium orchids literally glowed.  They were used heavily on the bride and groom's sweetheart table, Thallo's signature and complimentary gift.

The honored couple's chair backs... featuring orange macara orchids, croton foliage (homegrown by Thallo), roses and solidago.

The orchid topped napkins were just the cherry-on-top...
