Colourful Bridal Shower

In May, I had the pleasure of creating some daisy arrangements for a Kate Spade inspired bridal shower. These colourful daisies complemented the perfectly orchestrated decor of black, white (with polka dots of course) and gold. Congratulations to the soon to be bride and groom.

Large arrangement for head table. Mini and large gerbera with a cushion of green pom pom chrysanthemums

Smaller arrangements occupied the guest tables and dessert table (mini gerbera, yellow spider mum, pom pom chrysanthemums, xanadu leaf and bear grass)

Mini gerbera boutonniere for the groom to be and wrist corsage for the soon to be bride

Special Birthday's

The month of May contained various floral projects including a few one-of-a-kind birthday arrangements.

For an orchid lover....white dendrobium orchids, lush roses and red hypericum berries

Spring blooms for someone who was celebrating a milestone birthday. Tulips, fragrant hyacinths and delicate lisianthus, with a bed of pom chrysanthemums

Large basket of blooms for someone whose favourite flowers are daisies and sunflowers. Mini sunflowers, gerbera daisies, carnations, green spider/Fuji mums and forsythia branches

 

Hand-tied Bouquets

Flower bouquets are by far the most popular type of flower arrangement in most flower shops. Bouquets are available in various sizes and can be kept to just flowers and greens or you can get one custom made with a variety of embellishments. Here are a few examples:

Chicken wire and midollino sticks are used to create an armature base. A mixture of hydrangeas, calla lilies, roses and alstroemeria flowers. Greens include, rolled aspidistra leaves wrapped with metalic wire and lily grass. Flat metallic wire was used to further accessorize.

This armature bouquet utilizes fresh curly willow branches for its base. Designed with iris, chrysanthemum, asiac lilies, alstroemeria, silver dollar eucalyptus and asparagus plumosa fern.
