Boutonnieres and Weddings: The History and the Trends
Size is really important in a boutonniere. Ultimately, no one wants to look back at their wedding pictures and say ‘what was I thinking?!!!’. At the same time many brides also want something fresh and different. The balance is found in smaller size.

Weddings at Country Club Christian Church
Country Club Christian is one of Kansas City’s most popular churches for weddings. It’s conveniently located just south of the plaza at 6101 Ward Parkway. CCCC has a variety of features and appointments that make it appealing to engaged couples, but perhaps the most interesting aspect is the fact that the church offers two distinct ceremony venues. The main sanctuary seats more than 800 and the little stone chapel across the street seats 130. For images and a more in depth review, have a look at the article.

Highlights of the PWG Bridal Show
We stopped by the Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal show last weekend to say hello to some old friends, and in the process we made a few new friends. Some of the show highlights for us included the booths of Blue Window Creative, Alexander and Company, Evergreen Events and Dutch Flowers. Check them out!

Kansas City’s Hilton President Hotel
The Hilton President’s Congress ballroom is a great place for a wedding reception. It packs a powerful punch with its classy downtown location in Kansas City’s Power & Light District, its historical depth and beauty, and its exceptional event staff!

Reviewing the Berg Event Space
The Berg event space is a fabulous urban loft located just south of the Power and Light district at 15th and Grand. It makes a great wedding and/or reception site for couples who want something a little less traditional and a little more hip.

Going green with Spaces KC
Blue Bouquet worked with Spaces Kansas City to throw a green party for the March 2008 issue. It gave us an opportunity to gather our thoughts on environmentally friendly approaches to floral design and we’d like to share some of those thoughts with you.

All about Wirken Photography
Wirken Photography is one of the premier wedding studios in Kansas City. A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to have coffee with Tyler Wirken and Becca Spears to hear all about their work, their art and their plans. They also shared a few great photos with me, which I am happy to pass along to you.
