Continuing on with Yvonne’s guest post…she is going to share with us some inspirations for a classically elegant wedding with a tropical twist!

TROPICAL WHITE ELEGANCE
When couple’s get married in H they often think of bright and bold tropical colors like orange, red, fuchsia and yellow. This has been the color palette for so many of my events the past several years. Recently many of my brides have decided to go a different route and are now looking for a timeless and elegant look. Neutral shades are now the preferred palette.
Here is a wedding featuring all white flowers. The bride’s taste was clean and modern, but she wanted a tropical feel since many of her guests were visiting Hawaii for the first time.

The bride carried a bouquet of stephanotis which was cuffed with mother of pearl buttons.

Phalaenopsis and cattleya orchids were the feature flower for the ceremony.

The installation in the ceiling of the tent was created from hundreds of birch branches. Glass orbs filled with gardenias hung from this daniel ost inspired design. Daniel’s work is truly amazing! A true artist with insane talent!


I love how the candlelight creates such a warm glow. You can never have too much candlelight at a wedding!

And for anyone who's trying to figure it out - Her dress is Maggie Soterro's Mary.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Yvonne's work!!!!
I've only seen 1 of the galleries so far and I am kicking myself for not having my wedding in Hawaii!! :)
Definitely posting about this beautiful work first thing tomorrow!
wow! Maybe I should get married in Hawaii!!
Just a quick P.S.....Abby and Baby "L" are doing great!! As they whisked her to the OR, she told her husband to be sure the SMP posts went out on time! Today, she asked the nurse if they had any 'pink' gowns for her baby! They did.
I am so happy to see Yvonne here! We used her at the last wedding we planned and she is brilliant, I cannot over-state her talents enough. We did an all-white Hawaii wedding as well and I think they are beautiful and place the emphasis on the tropical surroundings. Great work Yvonne!
The simplicity of this design takes my breath away... I sell wedding supplies and would looooove to provide visions such as this to my bride. What a wonderfully gifted woman.
Yvonneʻs work is soooooooooo beautiful! Weʻre getting married next year and weʻll have the privilege of working with her... canʻt wait to get started!!! Yay for Yvonne Floral!
Yvonne's work is truly amazing. I have had the pleasure of seeing her work first hand at several of Christina Farrow's Pacific Aisles weddings. Her creativity and attention to detail are definitely unparalleled.
Yvonneʻs work is fabulous. As always. But not dress (sorry, Maggie).
