once wed: diy peony centerpiece

 
 

I am excited to tell you that I've started up my flower column at Once Wed again. This time, the stories will be photographed by Lisa Warninger (I can't tell you how happy that makes me!) July's article is a super easy peony centerpiece. You could also make this with garden roses or dahlias. And, like always, this is meant to be for your own home and party inspiration, not just weddings! Enjoy!

P.S. A huge thank you to the Ace Hotel for letting us shoot this at their awesome event space, The Cleaners.

Here's a sneak peek of the shoot I worked on yesterday (created sets + styled props).  This sweet, sweet dress was designed by Elizabeth Dye and the dreamy photograph was shot by Lisa Warninger.  The model was the lovely Anna Adams +  stunning, handmade hairpieces were provided by Twigs and Honey.
