Orchids, leis and more orchids
I knew my coworker Jessika was getting married, but little did I know she was planning one of the most gorgeous weddings I’ve seen in a long time.
Jessika recently got married and graciously allowed me to gawk at the incredible photos by Harvard Photography. And make no mistake — obviously, I had nothing to do with these amazing flowers, but I do sort of know the florist behind them. These gorgeous decorations were done by Catherine Hillen-Rulloda of Avante Gardens in Anaheim, who is married to Phil Rulloda, who did a book with Silverio Casabar, who was my mom’s mentor. Small world!
Anyway, you don’t want to hear about my six degrees of separation. You want to know about the flowers!

Hello everyone!
My name is Matt, and I am very excited to be guest posting for you today.
I work at a florist in Upstate New York, and this summer I had the opportunity to do an amazing wedding and reception at one of our client’s summer houseĀ in the beautiful Thousand Islands.
