All this talk about Sunflowers has the team at Phoenix Bride & Groom daydreaming about summer. Or at least spring!

The orange motif in this wedding is just the sunny, happy pick-me-up we’ve been looking for. From tangerine to deep pumpkin, orange gowns look great on ‘maids with a variety of skin tones. And see how the linens just POP at the reception at the Boojum Tree.  We are loving this look for any season. And wouldn’t you agree, it’s just a touch “Southwesty” without being overdone.

Thanks to Hagerty Photography for sharing these pics.

Guaranteed to make you smile, the sunflower is popping up all over bridal celebrations. We just love the way these happy blooms look in bridal bouquets and as part of the wedding decor.

Take a look at this stunner of a bouquet carried by bride Kristin Young when she married Marvin Brown last April.

Her bridesmaids’ bouquets were fabulous as well, thanks to the fresh work of Brady’s Floral Gallery. Notice their brown nail polish. So cute!

When a bride comes in and says her husband-to-be’s last name of “brown” is going to be part of the wedding theme, some people may get stalled.

Not this wedding party! The arch marking the place where Kristin and Marvin became husband and wife is a spectacular celebration of color: not just brown, but golds and oranges and deep greens.

Happy sunflower, and uptown brown: we now pronounce you a smashing combination!
