Meet the Florist — Field of Roses

Meet the Florist — Field of Roses - Whimsy & Row
 
In April, we set up a makeshift backyard wedding to set the scene for our Wedding Collection Launch — and frankly, it might as well have been a real wedding. It was stunning!  We worked with local  Ventura florist Heidi Rosenfield, of Field of Roses, who brought our faux reception to life. Scroll through for all the dreamy floral pics and some #ProTips from Heidi herself.
