She-N-He Top 3: Austin Wedding Florists by Melanie Grizzel

Ah, flowers, they have the ability to bring life to a room! I always say love is in the details and your florist should feel exactly the same way. Here are a few of our favorite Austin Wedding Florists.

STEMS Floral

I love the work that STEMS does. Their designs are clever, using not only flowers to create gorgeous arrangements but different props to help continue telling a story. They work with their brides & grooms on a full design concept, not just what flowers can be thrown into a centerpiece. Their care and creativity is what saves them a place on my favorites list!

RoseHip Flora

When you think of Austin Florists, you should think Rosehip. They are the epitome of the Austin vibe - free-spirited and creative, not to mention they've been serving the city for over 13 years. The ladies at Rosehip have a very clear vision and bold style that exudes from their designs.

Verbena Floral Design

Verbena is a classic and the perfect match for a traditional bride. Their designs are incredibly romantic with soft, subtle details. The Verbana team can make a simple design look so elegant. They too have been long-time Austinites, serving ATX for over 12 years.

Have a florist that you LOVE? Let us know! We'd love to check them out.

Page -N- Joe / Barr Mansion Wedding / Austin Wedding Photographer by Melanie Grizzel

Page and Joe from Albuquerque, NM - Married at Barr Mansion in Austin, Tx.

From Page:

Joe and I, both born and raised in the Southwest, met in 2004 in the least likely of places—at Lehigh University in eastern Pennsylvania. After graduation, we knew it was time to move back west, closer to home. After a stint of Joe living in Scottsdale and me returning to my hometown of Austin, we began to feel the strain of being in a long-distance relationship. In 2006, we decided to meet in the middle and relocated to Albuquerque, New Mexico. I really think that’s when we knew we were in it, together, for the long haul.

When Joe popped the question in New York City in December 2011, we knew we wanted to get married in Austin. The search began for a venue that captured the beauty and history of central Texas, but also wasn't too stuffy (Joe and I are not fancy people!). The majority of our guests were from out of state, so our first priority was to find a super cool spot for our celebration. We wanted everyone to get the “true Austin experience”—a little bit of swank and a little bit of country.

I fell in love with the Barr Mansion the second I laid eyes on it. Despite the dreary February weather, the rustic mansion and the contemporary-but-comfortable artisan ballroom were the perfect combination of traditional and modern we were looking for. Our wedding day was picture-perfect: a mild, sunny April day gave way to a gorgeous, starry night full of fun. Everything was amazing.

When we woke up the next morning, we wished we could do it all over again. It was that perfect. In fact, we’re still looking for a reason to throw another huge party!

The Honest Co / Jessica Alba Baby Shower / Austin Event Photographer by Melanie Grizzel

Together, The Honest Co. with Jessica Alba and The Simplifiers hosted the most adorable Vintage Garden Party-themed baby shower for Austin's deserving mom Chelsee and deserving dad John. The couple were honored by the Honest Co. along with three other couples nationwide who were hand-selected to win a whirlwind soiree for themselves and 18 guests.  Whole Foods Culinary Center was the location for this swanky affair that was very nearly rained out. The food from Whole foods, the blooms from Stems, and the colorful mismatched goblets and china from LOOT Vintage Rental came together flawlessly to make this "Garden Party" come to life!  With a lifetime supply of diapers from the Honest Co. and gobs of other swag, Chelsee will be in need of nothing, except maybe a couple of spare hands ;) If you'd like to read more about Chelsee you can find her story here.

Barr Mansion Tasting Event - Barr Mansion Weddings - Austin Wedding Photographer by Melanie Grizzel

Chandelier, Barr Mansion Weddings, Stems Floral Design, green antique glass The date is set and the location chosen.  Now for the food!  Thats what several couples were thinking August 6th, when they came out to Barr Mansion to sample the food they had been hearing about.  All organic, of course.  Nothing but a minimal carbon foot print for the ever earth-friendly Barr Mansion. The highlight, and incidentally the centerpiece of the evening, was the butternut squash martini bar complete with brown sugar for the sweet and roasted seeds for the savory lovers. It was a beautiful evening all around, and love was in the air!  Exquisite floral design was supplied by the brilliant Abbey Dagle of Stems Floral Design. The scene was set and carried through by the creative folks from Loot Vintage Rental. We had a great time and the food... delish.  But we expected that!
