Pealer's Flowers

2009-07-09T08:36:00.002-04:00

We had a beautiful day this past Saturday at the Peter Allen House! The Fourth of July could not have been better! We decorated the arch with curly willow, wisteria vine and white stock. The aisle was accented with queens anne's lace . The setting was beautiful overlooking the mountains. Just perfect! At the tent entrance we made two tall vases filled with limes, curly willow and lime green fugis.

The centerpieces were square vases with curly willow inside, white stock, snapdragons, lisianthus, babies breath and loops of bear grass. Simple and fresh they were the perfect setting.

We had a great weekend for weddings this Saturday! The weather was perfect and the sun was shining. Here are some pictures from the Colonial Country Club! It was a windy day but very beautiful. We trimmed the awning with tulle, flowers and boston ferns. We pinned down the runner and placed bows on each end of the chairs. The Place Card Table was a tall square vase filled with limes and clear gems. The top was filled with white and purple fugi mums. The centerpieces were sliced limes with fugi mums. The bridal table was trimmed with tulle and white lights.

Even though we were dodging the rain it was a busy weekend with weddings at Pealer's! The morning started out with a downpour that never seemed to end but we managed to have a few great minutes to capture some pictures. Here we are a Lauxmont Farms in Wrightsville-the sky was overcast but we were able to get the wedding set up with out getting soaked by the rain. The view was great-especially when the sun came out! We trimmed the arch with beautiful yellow lilies, gerbera daisies, white hydrangea and lush greens. The chairs were done to cordinate with the arch trim.

Here is a close up of the yellow and white flowers. Lilies, gerbera daisies and hydrangea are surrounded by lush greens.

The unity candle was trimmed to cordinate with the other flowers. Yellow roses were added to the mix. This wedding was held at Ski Roundtop-white roses floated in bubble bowls with lime green gems in some and purple gems in the others. Silk petals were scattered among votive candles. We did two pieces that sat on either end of the long bridal table-votives and petals were scattered to add accents.

Gaudenzia Gala

Our very own Debbie Keys was honored on Saturday June 6th at the 4th Annual Gaudenzia Gala at the Hershey Lodge and Convention Center! She was given the Community Champion Award for her extraordinary support of Gaudenzia. In case you don't know what Gaudenzia is all about it is an organization dedicated to clients who are overcoming the ravages of drug and alcohol addictions. Here are a few pictures from the event. My camera couldn't capture the moment quite as well but it was a wonderful event. Congratulations Debbie! Of Course Pealer's did the centerpieces of orchids and tropical greens! They even lit up!

What's New at Pealer's

2008-10-07T10:17:00.002-04:00

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month so at Pealer's we have created a bouquet to celebrate cancer survivors and honor those lost to the illness. This lovely bouquet is a pink vase with the ribbon symbol on the side. It is filled with all shades of pink flowers and a touch of green. With every sale we will donate $10.00 to the PA Breast Coalition. We were at the Milestone Inn several times this past summer. We were fortunate enough to have some really lovely days. This is a picture of the gazebo all trimmed up with white liles and hydrangea. White rose petals trim the sides of the aisle.

The Reception was under the tent with lots of orange lilies and river rock to compliment the Susquahanna River across the street.

This picture shows the ever popular European seating. The tulle was trimmed with pink petals. Nicole was a stunning bride! The white peonies were just fabulous! She brought me beautiful pins to accents the bridesmaids bouquets. It is amazing what small little details can add.

Winter was married in May and I am so glad I got the pictures! The stunning red roses were everwhere. The ceremony was at the Whitaker Center and the Reception was at the Four Points Sheraton.

At the Four Points Sheraton we did high and low arrangments in red. The roses and gerbera daisies were striking against the black stripe linens.

We had a great time at the Hollywood Casino in Grantville a few weeks ago. The ABC27 Bridal Show was held there on September 14th. We had lots of bouquets to show off and we met many nice brides. Here are some pictures of our booth.

We are on the Cover!

2008-09-23T10:34:00.002-04:00

Have you seen the cover of the Patriot News Wedding Syle Magizine? The bouquet of pink peonies is on the cover. Bride Amy Williams was married on June 7th in Harrisburg. We were so excited about the flowers and then to see them on the cover was an added bonus. You can see other pictures from the wedding in an earlier post.

Wow!

2008-08-04T15:12:00.007-04:00

It is always amazing to see your work in it's true element. We work so hard and have a vision in our head as to how it will look and when we get pictures that bring that vision to life you just want to scream yeah!! This wedding was on June 7th one of the hottest days we have had so far this summer. Amy and I sat down a year before the wedding and talked a great deal about what they had in mind. After many many changes and conversations the day finally came. Even though it was the hottest day the peonies were even hotter! When they came in the week of the wedding we were just floored by how beautiful they were. Amy carried a full, full bouquet of peonies, roses and spray roses. The bridesmaids carried hydrangea, peonies and roses. The pictures speak for themselves. They will just knock your socks off!!! The tent at the Milestone Inn was fantastic and the centerpieces were bursting. I am hoping to get a picture of the M we made out of flowers that went on the front door of the Milestone. Stay posted.

One of Our Favorites!

As I am cleaning out my computer I realize that I have pictures from weddings that I just feel I need to share with the world.

Wedding August 18, 2007

2007-08-20T09:16:00.000-04:00

We had a great weekend here at Pealer's Flowers! We drove up to Klinglerstown and Lykins for Becky and Chris's Wedding. Here are some pictures from the wedding at Salem United Church of Christ in Klinglerstown and reception at Kevin's Place in Lykins. We did a beautiful unity candle arrangement. Becky had a Lenox candle holder so we accented it with two small arrangements on either side of the holder. We used orange lilies, deep burgundy dahlia's, deep red roses, mini callas, dendrobian orchids in white and fuchsia, curly willow and lush greens of myrtle, lemon leaf and bear grass. It was a lovely day and we couldn't have had better weather. The pictures below are of the pew trims which were hand made by the bride's family and then we filled them to coordinate with the wedding flowers. Kevin's Place is located in Lykins and it has lots of history. Since Becky and Chris were having so many guests, they had long eight foot tables grouped together. We did high candelabras on each grouping and then on either end we had low arrangements some of which were on glass ovals made by one of Becky's friends. The candelabras were filled with lots of lush greens and accented with lilies, roses and dahlia's. We used the mechanical candles in the candelabras so it would look like they were burning and never dripping and then dangled votives.

Weddings at Pealer's Are Like No Other!

2007-08-10T14:52:00.000-04:00
