Whenever I’ve received flowers – for a birthday or special occasion – the arrangements from Empty Vase Florist of Los Angeles always stood out. In fact, I loved their arrangements so much, I started sending them to friends and colleagues. I’d never had a big enough event to use Empty Vase for their event planning… until now!

We used white roses, orchids, peonies, tulips and gardenias because they’re all my favorite flowers. Originally I had no idea what colors we would choose because I didn’t know what we were going to do with the dress. Tom actually picked out the tablecloths, and the team at Empty Vase had suggested we go with lighter, golden colors. Once I picked out the dress, we added hydrangeas to the table arrangements to bring in the blue, and Yvonne at Empty Vase thought of using blue sand in the vases along with seashells.

The wedding arch was all Yvonne – and while I was getting my make-up done, I could watch them out the window putting the arch together. That was really exciting and helped frame my mindset for the day.
