Creme de la Creme

Last month we had the pleasure of taking part in the Creme de la Creme Grand Wedding Showcase hosted by Countdown Events at Vancouver's Four Seasons. 

This was our third year being involved with the show and we really enjoyed the opportunity to connect with so many wonderful Brides-to-be and talented vendors from the wedding industry.

In case you missed it, here's some images of our florals on show, as captured by When Love Happens Photography. 

A special thank you to September Letters for our romantic "To Have and To Hold" calligraphy banner. 

Summer Wedding dates are quickly booking up so if you are interested in Celsia Floral for your 2015 wedding, please complete our online inquiry form so we can begin the consultation process with you. 

We look forward to hearing from you!

Fall-inspired beauty

The turn of season has us reliving this gorgeous Fall wedding from last year. 

Planned by Petite Pearl Events and photographed by Vasia Weddings, these pictures are proof that there is so much beauty to be had in every season when you truly embrace it.

These bridal flowers incorporated playful pops of colour with dahlia, garden roses, orange ranunculus and succulents, true fall tones and textures with the burnt-orange calla lilies, oak leaves, dried poppy pods and blue thistle, and richer tones through the smoke bush and burgundy ranunculus. 

The perfect ode to Fall, don't you think? 

On the cover

At Celsia we take part in a select number of editorials each year which we lovingly pour all of our creative energy in to bringing to life. 

The experience involves many hours of hardwork but is oh so rewarding when we see our designs published and all of our ideas shared for others to be inspired by and enjoy. 

It is for this reason we are grateful and proud to share the news an editorial we collaborated on at Vancouver's beautiful Hycroft Manor will grace the cover of the Fall/Winter edition of Perfect Wedding magazine. In the midst of a beautifully busy wedding season, we feel it necessary to take a moment to revel in the excitement of this announcement as well as appreciate the talent of all of the wonderful vendors we had the opportunity to work with on this shoot.

We will let you know once all of the glossy pages are released and ready for you to enjoy!

Playing with color

It's been a little quiet on the blog of late as we've been out and about creating beautiful weddings throughout the Summer months. 

Rest assured we will be back with plenty of photos to share with you come Fall... as well as an announcement of new WORKSHOP DATES! Watch this space. 

For now, we thought we'd share this sweet bouquet with you that had a unique colour palette. If we were to write it on paper it would sound a little challenging: soft pinks and peaches, rich wine tones, ink blue, a pop of fuschia. When we started to make it however, it just made itself! We love it when that happens. 

Thanks to Melissa Gidney Photography for sharing her beautiful images of this couple's portrait session with us. 

Bridal workshop creations

We had a very rewarding Sunday at flower school the other week teaching two talented ladies the art of bridal bouquets.

Focused on Celsia’s signature style, we delved in to the details of the perfect bouquet, from colour palette and bloom selection to shape and structure.

They’re finished works of art were so beautiful we just had to share them with you.

Congratulations Aspen and Christina! It was a joy to have you join us and share your passion for flowers.
