Living Succulent Centerpieces- Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club
Filed Under - I wanted to share a few more images from our October wedding at the Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club. There were just so many sweet details about this wedding, it couldn't be contained to one post.
This bride wanted to combine all types of living succulents (that could be taken home by guests and later re-potted) with lush, romantic flowers. Such a dreamy combination, and environmentally friendly solution!
Upon booking this job last May we got to work potting up several pots of echevaria in our own backyard. Over the course of months we propagated many new blooms, all of which made it to the wedding in October. The roots on the plants were kept intact when designing these lovely centerpieces to make the adjustment back into soil as easy on the plant as possible.
We recently heard from the bride and many of these succulents are happily living on after their cameo appearance at the wedding- some in her apartment in San Francisco, and others with guests who live all over California, from Camarillo to Sacramento to Sea Ranch.
Such a great idea! I'd love to look out my kitchen window and see my wedding flowers <3
