Real Wedding by James Abel

June 10th. 2008 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 13 comments

If you have been reading my blog for the last year or so, you’ll already know that I am a HUGE fan of James Abel…an absolutely delightful planner, event designer and florist based in New York. We have been friends for a couple of years now and I have to say, I am beyond impressed with James and his talent to constantly create stunning affairs that are each unique and fabulous in their own right.

This real wedding that James recently sent me is no different, from the gorgeous yellow and green color palette, to the perfect details…

    Hey H...James is at an event today so I will ask him to write in about the place cards later this week. My guess is that he took clean branches of varying heights and taped/glued printed white cards with names and tables on them. Then, inserted into a box of planted grass. I'll try to get the specifics though:)

    What are those fantastic yellow flowers called?

  10. James Abel says:

    Which flowers are you referring to? The round ones? They are called Billy Balls.

  11. Sarah says:

    Is there a special name for the tulips that were used in the bride's bouquet? I love the classic look of tulips; that color green gives them a more modern edge.

    They are green and white parrot tulips.
