les fleurs founder, sandra shaheen lived in paris and returned 
to andover to open les fleurs


however... i haven't had the chance to wander down the champs elysees,
dream as i explore the musée du louvre or enjoy my café au lait at a darling pâtisserie.

pinterest.com my latte and tasty treats... (i think so)

on this chilly january sunday i thought it would be more fun to rêver about paris

pinterest.com darling patisserie... where we will sip coffee all day, watching fashion walk by

pinterest.com beautiful french breads... look soo yummy!

when dale carnegie first said this notorious quote, i can't help but wonder 

if he knew one day it would describe wedding decor?

early last year i had the pleasure of meeting the most amazing bride and her mom, 

for which together we created the florals for this june stunner

june 12, 2011

groom's boutonniere... quicksand rose with mock orange

i love the yellow tie!

tray's, pottery barn lemons, les fleurs

escort leaves, soiree

tupper manor is such a beautiful venue and each couple brings their own personality to the space.  i have to admit however... i do think this june 12th wedding was one of my most favorite!  below leah haydock shot some stunning photo's of the balloon's in the conservatory.  the groupings of champagne, yellow and toffee colored balloon's were added to the 3-tier silver dessert stand centerpiece's

white hydrangea, mock orange, lemon leaf, lemons, peonies and roses

stunning gilded foyer inside tupper manor

crystal vases filled with roses were placed on the cocktail tables

"words of wisdom" cards by soiree were set out for family & friends to offer the new couple advice

congratulations! xo, les fleurs

2012 is here!!!

finding the perfect gown is where it all begins...

add a little dazzle...

some sparkle is a must!

a beaded or floral belt add's such fun to the evening's look
