Orchard in Bloom 2010

I was so happy when Deborah Summers.ower of A Bride's Choice Florist asked me to help her with the  tabletop portion for her booth at Orchard in Bloom 2010.  This nationally recognized garden show is now in its 21st year! The Orchard School and Indy Parks partner for a wonderfully delicious show featured at Holliday Park in Indianapolis, Indiana. This year, they have decided to also showcase a  wedding tent -  Weddings in Bloom. Deborah did a beautiful job (as always) on the florals!

Extra special thanks to Jamee Bryant - Setting the Mood by Jamee and A Classic Party Rental for letting us use items for our display.

The stunning wedding gown was designed by Caren Lewis of Cc Elaine Bride Chic.

Our friend, Erin Hession of Erin Hession Photography, was gracious enough to take photos of every booth. Thanks, Erin!

Super special thanks to Jamee Hawk, my assistant. Thanks, Jamee!
