New Faces

Every May at Peppertree we get a load of new faces to get used to... my seasonal wedding staff.  This year two of the folks who made it past my grueling interview including the classic, "tape this wire" test were Jon and Kari.  I met Jon and Kari through their wedding planning process for their October 2009 wedding. 

Kari and Jon aren't the first clients I've hired, actually it happens quite often.  Guess I have a pretty cool job after all. 

Here are a couple pictures from their wedding last year taken by Ardent Stills.  

I can't help myself... even surrounded with peonies and sweet peas I'm still drawn to the autumn weddings... I just LOVE them.  (My anniversary is October, 14th... may be part of the reason I'm partial). 

Outdoor in May

This wedding took place at Deerpark Manor here in town.  With a tent out in the back and perfect weather I'm sure the bride wasn't disappointed with her choice.  There were a lot of small touches to this wedding.

A "C" wreath to greet guests. (Over the front door)

An archway accent guests had to walk under to get to the ceremony site.

Here's the archway.  A classic topper with a rose and greenery garland.

Rose pomanders at the aisleway.

And beautiful pink and yellow centrepieces under the tent.

I had a great time... after I stopped sweating, and it was just the perfect day for an outdoor wedding.  Too bad this isn't the typical turn out for all those outdoor lovin' folks.
