A touch of whimsy, Part 2.

Following on from our last post of the personal flowers at Tara and Ian's Brock House garden party wedding, today we're bringing you images from the rest of their floral decor. With beautiful style, a love of flowers and an eye for those little extra details, Tara had plenty of wonderful ideas that we relished the opportunity to bring to life.

At the ceremony we created a eucalyptus garland to line either side of the aisle, as well as a feature wreath that hung from the beautiful old tree in front of which the couple said their "I dos" on the lawn.

For the reception the bride and groom's chairs were adorned with the sweetest floral accent while the centerpieces were a combination of tall and lush arrangements as well as garden-style pedestals and votives in the wedding color scheme.

A touch of whimsy

We're very excited to be sharing this whimsical Brock House garden party wedding with you today. When the delightful bride Tara approached us to create her florals, we couldn't believe our luck. Tara's vision for a sophisticated yet soft and romantic outdoor celebration made us squeal a little in delight and we couldn't wait to start designing for her.

With a strong emphasis on lush, natural foliage and a color palette graduating from white and champagne through to peach, pink and pops of purple and burgundy, this wedding came together beautifully. So beautifully, in fact, we've had to split the photos across two posts as we couldn't fit everything in!

Thanks to Lucida Photography for sharing such stunning photos with us and Filosophi Event Planning for making this wonderful dream a reality.

Most importantly, thank you Tara and Ian for the honor of being a part of your wedding celebration!

Celebrating Summer with new designs

The past two months have certainly provided Vancouver with glorious, Summer sunshine so we thought there was no better time than now to show you some of our new seasonal designs. Keeping things light and bright, we've put a fresh new twist on some of our most popular arrangements, such as Sunshine and Garden Scent, and added the 50 Mile design which we hope you'll love.

With an emphases on sustainability and supporting local growers, 50 Mile is made from blooms and stems all sourced within 50 miles of Vancouver. Even if you spot an orchid in your bouquet or arrangement, you can rest assured it was cut from a potted plant grown at a local nursery.

Relying on the freshest product available at market each week, we look forward to making plenty of unique creations with this new addition. You can see many more of our designs at our online store or call us to place an order.

Being bold with color

It's always exciting to see an inspiration color palette for a wedding that is a little outside the box. That's exactly what Leah and Andrew brought us for their UBC Boathouse Wedding and we couldn't wait to get to work designing for them.

From white, mint and soft pinks through to stronger yellow, purple and fuschia, there was plenty of fun to be had with these florals.

The eclectic range of product used in the bridal bouquet included succulents, kangaroo paw, sweetpea, chrysanthemum, dahlia, craspedia, ranunculus, stock, celosia and veronica.

And as for the shirt and tie combination paired with a succulent, ranunculus and wax flower boutonniere... this may just be our favorite yet!

Congratulations Leah and Andrew. Thank you for letting us snap these few pictures and for trusting us with your florals.

We'll bring the flowers

When Savoury City Catering and Events asked us to help celebrate their 10th Anniversary at the Vancouver Art Gallery recently, how could we possibly say no. Great company, great food and a great excuse to party - count us in!

So we got to work on the florals. Using a color gradient from white and blush through to strong pinks and fuschia, we played with the most delightful blooms imaginable to design arrangements fit for a well-deserved soiree. Tree peonies, garden roses, sweet pea, ranunculus, amaranthus and jasmine vine were just some of the treats we enjoyed.

And that's before we got to the food...
