The Full Bouquet

Brittany - Briar Patch - Loudoun Weddings- Yellow & White

Last Spring I had the pleasure of providing these bright and happy yellow designs for Brittany and Greg. The wedding was another wonderful Loudoun County wedding that took place at the Briar Patch Inn.

Maids bouquets were created with mini white callas, and yellow billy balls. The bouquets also featured looped lily grass.

The bridal bouquet featured yellow tree peony, yellow roses, mini callas, mums, freesia, billy balls, and cream toned stock.

Event styling and design was done by Lisa Shulz of the Posh Planner.

The amazing photography was done by Genevieve Leiper.

Lisa designed a beautiful space, half of the tables featured white linens and white flowers. We brought large white carnation balls were showcased on the white tables.

The yellow tables had a popping yellow linen, and my rocking bright yellow centerpiece. We used yellow football mums, yellow roses, yellow orchids, yellow billy balls, yellow lily, and yellow carnations in these pieces.

I love the way the china changes it's look when placed on the yellow linen. This was so pretty...

Paper products were done by Christina Barbour owner of Paperzest.

The cake and cupcakes were made by the amazing Rocio Diaz.

I love, love, love, the look of this table.

This was a nice bright happy thought for today.... I love the things we do here at Holly Heider Chapple Flowers.

Ashley & Nathan - Whitehall Manor - Loudoun Weddings

On May 7th of last year Ashley and Nathan married at Whitehall Manor in Loudoun County.  The day was totally blessed with not only a lovely couple but a host of amazing vendors. Lisa Schulz of the Posh Planner did the styling and planning, Bob Updegrove was the photographer, Whitehall Manor provided the catering and the surrounding beauty and I, Holly Heider Chapple, provided the flowers.

The bride carried an all hot pink bouquet of peony, roses, ranunculus, spray roses, and orchids. The accent color of the day was black so we added black florets and black feathers to the design.

The aisle was lined with hot pink petals and hot pink pomander's.

Centerpieces were hot pink carnation balls elevated on glass pilsner vases.

I love this picture of the very tired flower girl...

but the ring bearer is wide awake.

This was a happy and wonderful wedding to work on.

SARAH WHITEHALL MANOR- LOUDOUN WEDDING

Happily for me my brides are sending in pictures from their weddings last year. Hallelujah because I love, love, love, having pictures of my work. Especially this time of year as I am looking through my pictures with client after client. Thanks to photographer Len Spoden for capturing Sarah and Jason's Whitehall Manor wedding, this past June. Loudoun weddings are always amazing this time of year.

The brides bouquet was created with pink peony, pale pink sophie roses, candy bianca roses and antique green hydrangea.

Maids carried bouquets of white carnations, white hydrangea from my garden, dusty miller, green hypericum berry, white phlox, and white limonium.

Small jars of honey were given to guests as favors.

Half of the centerpieces were designed on vintage glass cake plates. We used snapdragons, ferns, peony, spray roses, roses, larkspur, berry, and fillers from my garden to create these lovely arrangements.

The other half of the centerpieces were arranged on my white iron stands. This elevated half of the centerpieces and that really made the reception room feel festive.

Happy married life Sarah and Jason. I am so glad I got to do your wedding flowers.

Jamie - Whitehall Manor

 We had quite the big week last week. I am shocked, floored, and blown away, by how beautiful everything was. I am totally proud of everyone at Holly Heider Chapple Flowers, we are rocking it.  Jamie was our Sunday wedding at one of my absolute favorite venues Whitehall Manor. I got this picture standing behind photographer Genevieve Leiper as she set up this shot. Look for the real images from this wedding on Gens blog.

 

This wedding was so much fun and so incredibly happy. Although it poured rain all morning on Sunday, the sun came out for my bride. She was able to have her ceremony outside seconds before the rain began again. Lucky bride.

 

Jamie chose a bouquet of all hot pink peonies. Every single precious blossom was from my garden. The flowers I had purchased for her bouquet were no where near as lovely.  We pinned a family locket onto the bouquet and we had perfection.

 

I took this picture!!! I am finally getting better at photography.

 

Maids carried the hot pink peonies, with pink ranunculus, and green viburnum.

 

The beautiful mothers carried mini bouquets, which is my preference for the moms. I think this look is so elegant.
 
   

Jamie made this fabulous place card board for seating.

 

Her family is Croatian and it is customary to use rosemary at a wedding. We made this cute little topiary design with the rosemary for the guest book table. I also used rosemary in the bouts, and corsages, as well as in the garland for the chuppah.

 

 

We filled the big window at Whitehall with floating candles and her centerpieces from the rehearsal dinner.

 

 

Whoops, I almost forgot rosemary was the party favor. You can see the little bottle of rosemary on the place setting.  I designed two styles of centerpieces, they were placed on these runners that were created by the family. The family could not decide which color to use. I suggested that they use both of them, and I love the way their tables turned out.

 

We used green spider mums, carnations, hydrangea and roses for both designs. This wedding was a great way to close out the weekend. We had 2 other really beautiful events but we will have to rely on the photographers to get us those images.  Happy married life Jamie and thank you for letting us do your flowers.

The Brides Of Holly Heider Chapple Flowers LTD.

A very important leader in the wedding industry asked me "who are your brides Holly."   What he wanted to know was, who do I service, who do I gear my business towards. Honestly, when he asked me that question I just wanted to laugh. Hundreds of girls faces flashed before my eyes. My brides are my girls, mine. I love them, and I promise them awesome flowers and then I deliver.  My brides stick with me through thick and thin, through sickness and in health, through good times and bad, and they know I will love them forever.   This picture is from last Friday. This is my bride Ashley, with her maids, Christina and Ali. Christina was my bride last June and Ali will be my bride in October.  I am always blown away by how loyal my brides are  and just how much they love me and this crazy family. It just goes to show love is patient, love is kind, because my brides really do put up with a lot of mischief.  Just yesterday I was in a consult when our new puppy Sadie (miss deer patrol) flew through the house with a plastic baggie of graham crackers in her mouth. Realizing that the plastic was going to go down with the crackers,  I had to catch Sadie in the middle of the interview. Next thing I know my bride, MOB (mother of the bride) and the soon to be groom are in a showdown with me and Sadie. As I looked acroos the room at my bride and her family all crouched and ready to capture Sadie, I was thinking this moment is for the books. I have been told time and time again this place could be a reality show, after yesterdays fiasco with Sadie, I have no doubt. It blows my mind that people can come here, feel comfortable, and put up with the many kids and the total nonsense that is always going on.  I am not the best at email or even voice mail but when it comes to creating your wedding flowers everything just pours right out of my heart and soul and magic is created every weekend, for every bride, plus we offer free entertainment.  My brides are killer, my brides rock, and my brides are the very best.

 

 

 

 Ashley married this past Friday night at Whitehall Manor. This wedding was super sexy and completely unique. Many of you know I simply love Whitehall, so it was an extra pleasure to be working on this event. 

 

Event planner Lisa Schulz of the Posh Planner was a part of this great wedding. Lisa was responsible for overseeing the event, styling the look of the evening, and flower girl roundup. I love working with Lisa because she is a total team player. Lisa is super sweet, super pretty, and she is a super hard worker.

 

This bridal bouquet was created with hot pink peonies, hot pink roses, hot pink orchids, hot pink ranunculus, and black feathers. We added specialty bling that I purchased in SFO. This bouquet was truly HOT.

 

Our amazing carnation balls were elevated on glass pilsner vases for half of the tables.  We created clusters of carnations, peonies, and roses, for the other tables. We tied each vase with a black ribbon and added a diamond bead to the design. These pieces were so bright and fun with this linen.

 

 

 

U gotta love these hot pink shoes.

 

Flower girl in the making.

 

 

Happy married life Ashley, and thank you for being one of my brides.
