As I became more cognizant of how a vessel could impact the look and feel of a floral arrangement, my awareness started to expand into stoneware, ceramics, and other styles of clay pottery. Handmade pottery has been making more of an appearance in the wedding world in general and it’s oh-so-pretty. My husband and I…
Being alive in the year 2020 has been challenging to say the least. Sometimes, when there is so much negativity in the world, we forget that beautiful things still exist. And we can forget to look for those beautiful things and grab a hold of them. With spending more time in our homes these…
For a long time I held tight to a belief about floral arrangements – that the flowers were much more important than the vases they were designed in. Dreaming about the varieties of flowers I would use for wedding centerpieces could take up the better half of the day. Their colors and shapes would paint…
With all the parallels that can be drawn between life in the 1920’s and life today in 2020, I have been thinking a lot about my relatives who were alive one hundred years ago and who went through similar hardships to the ones we are facing today. My great-grandfather, Carl E. Mohs, was born in…
With the arrival of fall just a couple of days ago, it will be no time at all before the Holidays are upon us. Where did this year go?! How can the year 2020 be just around the corner?? The cooler weather has me daydreaming about beautiful floral decor for the Holiday Season. And I’ve…
This past weekend I helped another Seattle Wedding Florist. The east side venue where their wedding took place was located on top of a hill and had an incredible view of Seattle, Lake Washington, and the surrounding area. It was gloriously breathtaking. While the ceremony was located at a different part of the property, I…

The SWG resides in Snohomish, WA and includes wedding vendors in all categories: venues, caterers, planners, florists, officiants, hair and make-up, deejays, rentals, and so on. While the Guild is open to all businesses, venues and event spaces have to be physically located…
The other week I had coffee with a lovely Wedding Planner and Event Manager, Melissa. Melissa owns Bright Side Events, but also manages events at AXIS Pioneer Square. She took me on a tour of AXIS after finishing our coffee and I immediately could see why so many love this Seattle event venue. AXIS Pioneer Square…
Last week I attended a wedding professionals networking event at Rein Fire Ranch. Just as I had my favorite venues in Colorado, I knew that Rein Fire Ranch (RFR) was going to be one of my favorites in Washington. RFR is a 45 acre former horse facility. Outside there are gardens, a pavilion, and a…
The other week I had the opportunity to visit a lovely venue, Jardin del Sol. Jardin del Sol is an outdoor garden wedding and events venue located on a private residence in Snohomish, Washington, about 45 minutes north/east from Seattle. Having gotten married outside in the mountains in Colorado back in 2017, I am partial…
