Milwaukee Public Market Wedding

Morgan and Jesse, 

A Milwaukee Public Market Wedding

Month: August

Florist: Bank of Flowers

Photographer: Emily Johnson Photography

Ceremony: Grace Lutheran Church, Menomonee Falls

Reception: Milwaukee Public Market, Downtown Milwaukee

From the colors of the wedding, to the cheery flower choices, I knew Morgan and Jesse would be a fun couple to work with.  And the venue, the Milwaukee Public Market, was equally unique.  This cute couple chose a vivid Teal and bright Coral as their focal colors, with the floral bouquets and decorations ranging from whites and soft creams, to peaches and corals.  The bright gerbera daisies really show off this couple's fun-loving side, as do the bride's bright shoes and the groom's sassy socks!  The Bank of Flowers team and I really enjoyed being a part of their special day. Congratulations Morgan & Jesse!

Hubbard Park Wedding

Stacy and Matt's Wedding!

Ceremony and Reception: Hubbard Park, Milwaukee

Flowers: Bank of Flowers

Photographer: Vital Image

Month: August

I can't think of a cheerier flower than the Gerbera Daisy.  Something about this flower just makes people smile, and so it was a very fitting flower for Stacy and Matt's special day, where smiles could be found everywhere you look!  

Stacy chose a palette of white, peach and coral, a perfect compliment to the robins egg blue dresses. The bouquets were made from white hydrangeas, soft peach stock, peach and coral roses, and coral gerberas.  The men wore double spray rose boutonnieres in coral, with white for the groom.  

The aisle was decorated with hanging vases filled with white hydrangeas, and the reception tables were simply charming with coral gerberas in a vase accented with the robins egg blue ribbon.  

This was such a fun color scheme and look, and it was so much fun to be a part of Stacy and Matt's special day!  Congratulations!

Thanksgiving Centerpieces Galore!

The smell of freshly baked pies and fall leaves covering the yard are signs that Thanksgiving is almost here!  This is a time to remind us of all of the blessings that fill our lives.  As we gather with our friends and family this Thanksgiving, why not enjoy each others company surrounded by beautiful fresh flowers?!
Vivid orange roses and gerbera daisies, burgandy hypericum berries and mums, and tufts of bright autumn leaves are sure to illuminate any table.  Here at Bank of Flowers, we carry many different autumn containers such as ceramic pumpkins and pots adorned with maple leaves.  We would love to help "dress" your table this Thanksgiving, so if the turkey, dressing and pie are already checked off the shopping list, bring the flowers!

Wishing you a blessed Thanksgiving from my family to yours!

Kendall + Robert = Wedded Bliss

Ceremony Location: Our Savior Lutheran Church, Hartland

Reception: Delafield Hotel, Delafield

Photographer: John Ciciora Photography

Florist: Bank of Flowers, Pewaukee

Month: July

I met with Kendall a few short months before her July 30th wedding, and we hit it off immediately.  Her bubbly personality is infectious and I wanted to make her flowers as fun as she is.  

Kendall chose peach, white and grey as her color palette.  We combined hydrangeas, astilbe, bouvardia, white oriental lilies, garden roses, godetia, and peach gerbera daisies with grey brunia and dusty miller to fulfill her floral wishes.  Kendall added personality to her wedding by using a personalized burlap aisle runner for the ceremony and having their huskies walk the couple down the aisle after saying "I do".  Her "something blue" was a small heart shaped piece of her father's shirt added to her wedding dress.  

At their reception at the Delafield Hotel, the aisle flowers from the ceremony were repurposed to be used on the cocktail tables.  Tall and short floral arrangements were interspersed throughout the reception tables.  At the end of the night, the couple walked through a gauntlet of well wishers waving lit sparklers.  So much fun!!

I sometimes wish weddings happened more than once just so I can work with the same people over and over again.  Kendall and Robert were be on the top of the list!

We wish them a wonderful, fun happy wedded life together!

Turner Hall Ballroom

Elizabeth + Brian = Love

Ceremony and Reception: Turner Hall
Florist: Bank of Flowers
Photographer: Gloss Photography Studios
Month: August

What better place to get married than the heart of it all in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  Liz and Brian planned their dream wedding so their guests could experience the urban beauty of our great city at the historical Turner Hall. Turner Hall Ballroom is a two story 7,000 square foot space that was originally used by German Immigrants of Milwaukee for weekly concerts, dances and theatrical performances.   This gem of a space was fully renovated in the early 2000 after nearly being vacant for 70 years.  Congratulations Elizabeth and Brian!
