Lauren and Bill’s Pastel Spring Wedding at The Booking House
May 20, 2023
“I just told Misha that I knew whatever she did would be beautiful and to essentially follow her heart. That was the best decision I ever made.”
“Misha is a true artist. Our flowers were unique, romantic, and absolutely breathtaking. I don’t think I could have imagined a more beautiful palette of colors/textures — it was like nothing I’ve ever seen before.
Before I rave about all that Misha created, I’d first like to mention that she’s super easy to work with. She responds quickly and is always happy to ideate with you. I was able to keep 95% of floral planning over email. This included changing my mind 4 months before the wedding to (1) use all the colors of the rainbow versus whites & greens, AND (2) majorly changing styling for our head table and guest tables. All of this was discussed and adjusted over email. Something that could have been so complicated felt so easy with Misha. She even directly coordinated with our rental vendor so I wasn’t playing middleman — I am still so grateful for that. And lastly, Misha was the only florist that respected our initial budget. Everyone else went WAY over, but she was honest with us from the get-go about what was realistic. We really appreciated that and felt we could trust her.
I’m going to do my best to write about what Misha created for us, but it will never do it justice. Look at the pics and definitely check out her Instagram!
Misha thoughtfully carried the same whimsical floral palette throughout every space in The Booking House. From the entrance, to the staircase, to the bar, to the tables, but most importantly to THE MANTLE. The mantle in the Rizzardi Room is the focal point of the ceremony, and the reception as well. It looked like a garden burst out of the fireplace — it was absolutely incredible. I have no idea how she did it — it was truly magical.
The bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages were equally beautiful — and as a bonus, Misha was able to repurpose the bridesmaid bouquets for our head table. My bouquet is currently being preserved and made into art — I cannot wait to hang it in our home!
And so much love was given to our guest tables. Misha curated the cutest little bud vases to sit with gorgeous gold tapers and vintage books. These bud vases were also used in other nooks and throughout our cocktail hour. They were the perfect pop of romance.
If you choose to work with Misha, I recommend not being too particular about flower types and exact colors. About 2 months before the wedding I began experiencing decision fatigue across the board… so I just told Misha that I knew whatever she did would be beautiful and to essentially follow her heart. That was the best decision I ever made.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Misha and her work. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind floral palette/design that your guests will actually remember, then Woodland Floral Design is the right florist for you.”
