Last Day of August

Here are two stunning displays of color on the historic lamp posts at Rosario Resort. The first features the summer colors of the flower baskets being overwhelmed by the quickly changing fall colors of the trees (too quickly!) The second is on the neighboring lamp where a Stellar's Jay was sitting, complimenting the beautiful blue and purple hues of the flower baskets below.

Patina Design

One of our favorite wedding designers at Rosario Resort is Leslie Ginnes of Patina Floral Design here on Orcas Island. She provided a cool lime theme at yesterday's wedding at Rosario... perfect for a beautiful summer evening!
