As promised, we will be posting little bios about each of the vendors involved in our giveaway. And, as a tie-in, since this is a floral blog after all, I will be posting favorite things to use in Christmas arrangements at the end of each post.
So first, let's get to know Jessie, from Jessie Alexis Photography, in her own words:
-Growing up, I was the girliest of little girls, and having a "boy's" name was a tragedy in my eyes. In preschool, I refused to respond to anything but Princess Buttercup.
- I adore Disneyland with my whole heart and spent the first two years of my marriage as an annual passport holder.
- I love the thrill of photographing weddings, and I always cry during the father-daughter-dance.
- Potatoes and popcorn are my two favorite foods, and I love any sort of fruity candy except anything grape flavored. Yuck.
- I drive a Jeep and my husband drives a Prius, I guess you could say we balance each other out.
- In June of 2010 I became a mom, best job ever second only to being a wife. Photography is a close third :)

And now, favorite inclusion #1 for Christmas arrangements: pomegranates.
Proof:
This arrangement from Canada Roses,
and this one from Delightful Deliveries.
Aren't they just lovely? They get used a lot because they are in season and they smell yummy, and they dry well, and they are hearty. They work fabulously cut in half - the texture is just amazing - and they give you rich red color in your arrangement without adding extra flowers. So there you go - pomegranates.
