The Cheetah wedding is almost here and I just realized I haven’t written one post about our florals yet!
Since I come from a long line of women who love flowers, it was always clear that we would have fresh flower centerpieces and bouquets for our wedding. We set up meetings with four florists on a big planning trip to Palm Springs. One wouldn’t show us any pictures or samples (for reals), one had a different aesthetic than us, one was very talented—but took months to get us a proposal—that was twice our budget, and one was just right. It turns out that the first florist we met with was the perfect fit. He immediately got the pink, white, and yellow modern romantic look we’re envisioning.
As we are having three long tables and a family-style dinner, there isn’t a lot of room left, so centerpieces will be minimal and scattered.
Like this, but more spread out
Not only am I super excited about how great the simple design will look, it also frees up more room in the flower budget for my absolute favorite wedding florals: bouquets!
Oh man, I’m so pumped for my bouquet.
I gave our florist a bunch of images of bouquets I love (including those above) and I trust him to make something wonderful. Likely flowers include: roses, peonies, ranunculus, billy buttons, anemones and more!
Are you having fresh flowers at your wedding?
Oh Good Lord! I am so envious. My florist is preparing me for the idea that I might not get my peony bouquet. That’s all I care about when it comes to flowers. Just MY bouquet. Um, BM’s? Nope. Centerpieces? Natch. Your flower inspirations look so lovely 
Shut up, I can’t believe your wedding is almost here! Where does the time go?!
Oh - and you are so right to be pumped for your flowers. They are going to be amazing!
I love anemones! They’ve got just the right amount of drama–if a flower can have drama. 
Looking forward to seeing your gorgeous bouquet!
I REALLY love your wedding inspiration. This is exactly the look that I would want at my wedding- fresh, romantic and slightly vintage! So pretty!
I adore your inspiration and vision. Can’t wait to see it all come to life!
Lovely flowers and lovely inspiration, I’m sure it will be romantic and beautiful!!
LOL I just love those flowers. They are going to look awesome!
Gorgeous flowers!!! I love your inspiration photos!! How exciting that your big day will be soon. I look forward to your recaps and photots!
Lush, lush, lush and looooooovely. Can’t wait to see the final bouquet!
I really like the flowers here. I think this will be a good wedding inspiration for others. The bouquets here also really looks cute!

Ms. Cheetah, Los Angeles/Palm Springs Age and Occupation: 31, Artist, Educator Fiance's Age and Occupation: 32, TV Finance Engagement Date: April 2010 Wedding Date: March 2011 Venue: The Viceroy About Me: I’m a silly, sassy lady with a compulsion to create. I love to sing and dance, despite the fact that I lack any talent doing either. I somehow manage to be messy and organized at the same time. I like to spend my days road tripping, watching '80s movies, reading true crime books, buying things on sale, sending postcards, playing board games, dining at food trucks, snuggling, and drinking ginger ale. I have a weak spot for all things sweet, especially Mr. Cheetah! I’m a Chicago girl and he’s a Nor Cal boy but we love living in the City of Angels. After 10 years as a couple we are planning a fun-filled semi-destination wedding in Palm Springs. Hope you enjoy the ride!
