The Afterparty - A Late Summer Celebration

These two lovebirds planned an intimate and private elopement at Eaton’s Ranch in May and followed up with a blowout weekend of celebrating with all their friends and family at the end of summer. Two Sweet Sparrows of Asheville, NC planned and coordinated all the events.

The weekend started with a welcome party at the Barn in Big Horn under a white tent with games on the lawn. We provided simple and sweet end-of-summer-themed bud vases in warm colors throughout the space.

The party continued with a bash at the Big Horn Equestrian Center, complete with catering by Terra’s Craft Kitchen/Shabby Shack and a rocking live band from Denver. Powder River Party Rentals provided the goods, and Rachel McIntosh Photography captured all the details.

We collected and reused these little beauties for the party at the Big Horn Equestrian Center the next day. We created long and richly colored wooden boxes for their tented dinner area using lush roses, bright delphinium, mixed greenery, and textured flowers to accent. These were paired with LED tea lights in our vintage mixed mercury glass votives. The cocktail and patio tables hosted coordinating flowers in bud vases and ceramic tumblers in clusters.

Congratulations! and thank you for choosing Whirly Girl Flowers for your celebration(s)!!

An August Wedding at Home

Eliza & Zach

Imagine exchanging vows against the backdrop of Wyoming's Bighorn Mountains—a breathtaking setting for a simple, unhurried, and undeniably beautiful wedding at the bride’s family home. Picture sage green blending with warm, muted gold tones, accented by delicate white daisies reminiscent of the bride's mother's bouquet. This captured the heart of their Western wedding, with every detail radiating natural charm.

An Ode to Burgundy & Blush

Perhaps the most enduring color palette of my 13 season wedding career, Burgundy (or merlot) and blush is the forever flexible color scheme that appeals to everyone. It can be rustic or country, classic and elegant while fitting nearly every single season. It might just be the unicorn wedding color palette to rival classic white.

Sometimes the design leans more towards blush and light tones with pops of color. Other times we go dark and highlight with brighter blooms. Often it’s paired with a shade of blue and you’ll find the funky, textural thistles in their starring role. From bouquets full of greenery to bouquets with minimal foliage you’ll find the full range.

Here are my favorites and how even when the request is the same, I keep things fresh, unique and customized to every couple I have the honor of creating flower magic for. Click the images to see accompanying blog posts.

A Mountaintop wedding in Rust & Sage

Kaylie & Gerrit planned a mountaintop ceremony and rustic-chic reception at Meadowlark Ski Lodge for their August wedding in the Big Horn Mountains.

The groom wore a three-piece charcoal suit and paisley sage-green tie while the ladies wore an assortment of dresses from David’s Bridal in Dusty Sage. The bride found her stunning Essense of Australia gown at Dora Grace Bridal and looked absolutely incredible in the graphic lace.

Buffalo, WY-based wedding Dani Jerry Photography captured the day and all the magical details. As a florist, it always makes my heart happy to see the flowers we dreamed of with clients captured in all their glory and edited in true-to-life colors.

Kaylie wanted her bouquet to feel rustic and warm, reflecting the natural beauty of our Big Horn Mountains and the wildness of Wyoming. I used a variety of eucaluptus and grevelia, bronze amaranth, finely textured calycinia, Sweet William, toffee roses, and fragrant tuberose for her bouquet.

For their reception, they utilized our bulk, DIY greenery for simple faux garland on the long tables at the lodge. Paired with rust table runners, simple pillar candles, and antlers they had the perfect look for their reception and stayed within their budget for decor.

Their wedding venue in the Big Horn Mountains came with gorgeous farm tables and rustic chairs in addition to the striking views at Meadowlark Ski Lodge. You can choose between a mountaintop ceremony with stunning vistas of the Big Horn Mountains, Lakeside beauty or the lovely deck for your ceremony.

Congratulations!

A boho wedding at the Brinton Museum

August Boho Wedding

Look no further if you’re inspired by Romantic, Boho, and Semi-Formal vibes in neutral, taupe shades and soft mauve tones.

The ladies wore mixed dresses from Revelry in styles & colors of their choosing. The men wore simple white shirts and mauve ties.

Their August wedding at the Brinton Museum was full of details crafted by family and friends and Captured by For the West & Wild Photography

The talented Dan Lee created a custom, hand-drawn welcome sign for their wedding. A boho rug in taupe tones anchored their ceremony spot under the towering trees on the lawn. A single, triangle-shaped mountain arch with two floral pieces set the stage for “I do’s” and was a great photo backdrop.

Everyone loves a good dog at a wedding.

Amanda from Manny Cakes brought the sweets, including a gorgeous cake with gold leaf, flowers, and assorted cookies.

We kept their reception decor simple and classy with boho touches. They provided candles and gold geometric pieces, while Whirly Girl Flowers added trailing loose greenery and farm-house pottery-inspired bud vases with luxe roses.

The bridal party bouquets were repurposed for their head table and provided a lush look.

The bride requested dried pampas grass and neutral flowers with muted pops of purple. The amnesia roses were the perfect shade to bring the vision to life.

Congratulations!
