After seeing Mr. Thimble for the first time on our wedding day, I was ready to get my bearings and make sure everything was in it’s place—or at least that the bridesmaids had a vague idea of what they should check up on. And it also meant finally getting my hands on my bouquet before continuing with more pictures.
I thought about calling this post this post “Epic Bouquet.” Our florist, upon looking through my inspiration pictures, surmised that I wanted a LARGE bouquet. I thought a regular bouquet would be just fine…but she handed me my flowers on wedding day and asked, “Is it big enough?” And I was enamored with the texture and the billy buttons and the chamomile and the pink and peachy fluffy bits. If it had to be big to fit them all in then bring on the big bouquet. =)
I only have eyes for my flowers.
The girls’ bouquets were looser with more greens. Still a bit wild and full of different textures.
The men were sporting billy buttons and herbs for their boutonnieres.
Rosemary and variegated greens for the fathers, soft lamb’s ear for the groomsmen.
Now that we had our finishing touches, we were picture-perfect for more pre-ceremony photo shoots.

Buck House About Me: I’m an easily inspired over-thinker delighted with the process of designing, building, directing and {dare I say} co-starring in the early-autumn affair I’ve been dreaming up. I’m a sucker for trendied-up comfort foods and old family anecdotes; I have an affinity for adjectives, alliteration, eyelet and earl grey; and I live for quality time with family and friends. I never guessed I’d marry my “high school sweetheart", but when it turned out to be my funny, techie, loyal Mr. Thimble I was committed for life. We’re both mid-career transition and ready to move back to small-townish TBD, PA in a pre-wedding flurry of all-good life changes.
