Kate & Jeffrey

Parasols were up and fans were fanning this past weekend in the Cave Springs Vineyard. The forecasted thunder storms held off but the heat and humidity were everpresent as Kate & Jeffrey were married at the vineyard site. The heat kept me from straying too far as I waited to transfer the flowers, and what a delight it was to witness this ceremony performed by Sheldon Kofsky (www.weddingceremonies.org). Sheldon and his wife Judy (who are local chaplains) always interject their personal touch and perform each ceremony with an invested interest in the couple. The bride wanted to have her flowers represent a country inn theme - no better venue than the vineyard and Inn On The Twenty.
The bride held her delicate posie of roses, spray roses, stephanotis and lisianthus in her own silver tuzy muzy.


The country inn theme was carried throughout with agapanthus, delphinium, hydrangea, lisianthus, roses and seeded eucalyptus.






I couldn't leave the vineyard without snapping a picture of the grapes. The bunches were plentiful and the turning colour sent a reminder that fall harvest is a few short weeks away.







September wheat and queen anne's lace were added to the centerpieces to give the 'just picked' meadow look.
