Whimsical Dahlia, Peony and Anemone Boquet

Patricia let florist Michelle Jacob take full control of all of the florals, requesting only that the flowers complement the venue and that anemones be included in the centerpieces and bouquets. However, the drought in California made finding anemones a difficult task. “Somehow my florist managed to find a vendor who was getting them imported,” says Patricia. “A week before our wedding we were told the anemones were destroyed at customs. I was devastated, since they’re my favorite flower, but two days before the wedding my wonderful florist was able to source the flowers! Anemones were limited, but we were able to incorporate them into all the bouquets, boutonnieres and a few centerpieces.”
