So here in Savannah it finally feels like fall. Chilly nights and nippy toes and noses and animals curling in a bit tighter with us on the bed; yup, it's officially autumn.<br />
<br />
It's rare we do not have a wedding on Saturday and I've been itching to work on our website and play with tremendous flowers, weeds, dried branches off the railroad track and any other odd organic piece I might forage. (I am certain I am part squirrel).<br />
<br />
Stay tuned and have a gander at what's new for the fall. We're "cooking up a storm" in our flower kitchen and can't wait for you to see what we're up to. Time for my cozy bed.. I'm the last one up. Good night!</div>

<br />
The sound of locusts, the lulling bedtime of summer ending. I have been thinking in desert mode these past few weeks. We've had our fair share of rain, but there is something sweet and haunting about one season laying down for another. Leaves are falling in the streets, the children have gone back to school and I'm in a southwest space. The quietness of summer has allowed me to dig and plant with dirt under my "why-do-I-EVER-get-a-manicure" nails. In my love for arranging flowers, planting arrangements has been a fun diversion.</div>

We're thrilled to introduce our first ever Valentine's Day flowers. The day is especially meaningful to me because that is when my darling proposed. As campy as it seems, it's true. Along the narrow walkway deep in the Ubud Monkey Forest in Bali, Russ gingerly got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Monkeys like all things shiny so we threw them our last bananas and got out of dodge.</div>

I've just popped in from the studio after making a sunny arrangement for today's photo shoot. I'm sitting here in bed while Sebastian plays with his fun stuffed flower (might as well get him started young). It's wintry and gray and my hands are all "jacked up" with tendonitis of sorts. The cold doesn't help. Russ is outside fixing the tire on his pick up truck which is literally on a car jack and looks quite red neck outside our front door. We came to the conclusion that perhaps this is where the expression "jacked-up" came from... if the shoe fits?</div>

In the wedding industry flower shops would not be able to do their thing with out a venue, photographers with out the wedding party. It is an interwoven world of many different people working together to make one person have a beautiful spectacular day. Here at Urban Poppy we love meeting new people and working with others. This past weekend we had the pleasant opportunity to work with <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sweet-Home-Studio/213295938736367" target="_blank">Sweet Home Studio Photography</a> for Stephanie and Kevin's wedding. They were a delight and took some wonderful photos of the big day. Take a peak.<br />

Here at Urban Poppy we love our brides, and making them feel special and honored on their big day is something we strive for. Receiving feedback about how we influenced their big day is why we do what we do. So when we received this e-mail we were honored. Thank you Diane for your kind words.<br />

Breaking a wedding routine is always a nice treat at the shop during the southern wedding prime, making Suzanne and Patrick's beautiful wedding a great experience for us. It began as a journey away from Savannah into Hilton Head Island to the alluring <a href="http://deals.westin.com/Westin-Hilton-Head-Island-Resort-1050/so.htm?PS=PS_aa_South_Google_south_carolina_+Westin_hilton_head_resort_Broad_010912_NAD_FM" target="_blank">Westin Hilton Head Island Spa and Resort.</a> We were greeted with an energy that fueled the unique experience to the peak setter, a candy bar. Going with something different, the bride and groom replaced the traditional groom's cake with a make your own candy bag station. This new trend was a hit among the guests, and left us wanting more of the unique experience. </div>

I love collaborating with other wonderful, creative wedding designers & professionals. This centerpiece got to come back to the studio with me and looks right at home on my desk. Although camelias and azaleas don't hold up very well, I had to snag a few from my backyard for their gorgeous colors and crepe paper textures.<br />
<br />
Experimenting with different color palettes like blackish-eggplant mini callas and the darkest hypericum I've come across thus far, with delicate blush-white roses makes for unique and interesting arrangements. I'm still a champion for carnations and these peach mambos lent themselves well to the overall design. </div>

Today was a beautiful day for a wedding here in Savannah at the lovely <a href="http://www2.scad.edu/savannah/visit/tour/magnoliahall.cfm">Savannah College of Art & Design's Magnolia Hall</a>. A rainy wedding makes for a sunny marriage. And much congratulations to Nicola + Robert. </div>

I loved the little bay window alcove area that looked onto the courtyard. It was the perfect setting for an organic arrangement that fit perfectly atop my little hallway table. Queen Anne's Lace, quicksand roses, coin eucalyptus, champagne spray roses, astrantia, white hypericum and some blushy white astilbe, white patience david austin roses, and dusty miller, were a few of the flowers that went into the arrangements. </div>

So, back in the old days when I worked as the lifestyle editor for a humble-sized newspaper in Ohio, I had the joy of creating daily columns based on several interests that appealed to many of the township's readers. As part of my New Year's Resolutions, writing in my blog needs to appeal to me as much as it does to you, my dear reader. </div>

All this to say, I'd love to have each day (let's say four days) of the week be dedicated to something new and interesting in the world of flora and design. One of these days, I believe, will be dedicated to my flower crushes- my fellow floral designers that keep me ooohing and aaaaahhing over the beautiful world of flowers I'm SO blessed to work in each day.</div>

Many of you are familiar with Sarah over at <a href="http://www.saipua.com/">Saipua</a> in Brooklyn. Not only is she a brilliant designer, but she's a ridiculous (that's a compliment) photographer and Rembrandt would have been proud. Above are a few of her arrangements for you to ogle. Please be sure to wipe up the drool from your keyboard when you're through :) </div>

Here on a visit, I'm sitting at the dining room table in my brother's house outside of Phoenix working on wedding proposals while my almost two year old niece entertains the both of us with building blocks and balloons.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking of the great chat I had with a wedding photographer I met last night and have been quite taken with <a href="http://www.weddingchicks.com/2010/06/07/an-arizona-desert-wedding/">weddings in the desert</a>.<br />
<br />
Staring out the window I see mountains, a strikingly crisp blue sky, and tones of sand and gray greens of eucalyptus and olive trees. How different our two worlds are! And how fun it would be to have a wedding out here with such amazing light, and the sunsets!<br />

Browsing one of my favorite blogs: <a href="http://www.100layercake.com/">100 Layer Cake</a>, I came across this <a href="http://www.100layercake.com/blog/2012/10/03/santa-barbara-wedding-megan-carver/">gorgeous arrangement</a> by <a href="http://toastsantabarbara.com/#">Toast</a> that with an airy backdrop just made me sigh in contentment. Maybe because everything about this photo reminds me of fresh summertime and it's January? </div>

As we approach the end of the year, it's fun to look back and see what our brides were consistently attracted to in terms of color and design. The truth is that here in Savannah, Charleston and the Low Country, southern vintage charm will always reign. Blushes, grays, spanish moss, mason jars, burlap, lace, sweet tea, cotton and peaches always make for a comforting, beautiful combination.</div>

And so another year rolls up before us. I'm blushing to see my last entry was in June. Hence, "New Year's Resolutions". I shall not set myself up for failure by promising to write everyday. On the contrary, several times a month might be more realistic. Thus far, most of my posts have been highlights of our beautiful brides and their lovely weddings, but with <a href="http://pinterest.com/urbanpoppy/">Pinterest</a> visually taking us over by storm, there's simply so much eye candy to share and chat about. Speaking of <a href="http://wedding.theknot.com/wedding-planning/planning-a-wedding/articles/10-resolutions-for-every-bride-slideshow.aspx">resolutions</a>, the Knot has some fun ones for you brides to be.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Are those resolutions tucked into a bridal bouquet? Close- they're love letters! My brilliant bride Kellie, made origami flowers out of her beloved's missives and we fashioned them into an amazing bouquet- talk about teamwork! I love it when brides think out of the box :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Thank you to each of you: brides, families and vendors who made 2012 a tremendous joy and a Happy 2013 to come!</div>
