Summer Lovin'...

... with a slight chance of rain. Fortunately the skies stayed blue, and the red umbrellas made for a fun photographic touch. The Brides love of the heat of summer and bright exciting colors set the tone for this black, white, and red wedding with a punch of yellow.

The 10 stunning bridesmaids carried a beautiful long stemmed bouquet of solid red roses, two toned yellow roses, and miniature yellow gerbera daises wrapped in a gorgeous black satin ribbon, corset style. The Bride carried a two dozen red rose bouquet with dramatically long stems wrapped in the same corset style in black satin ribbon. The beautiful skies, and gorgeous flowers set the tone for this bright and lively summer wedding.

With Deepest Sympathy

Flowers are a silent companion for all of life's major events. We often receive flowers in celebration of birth and on birthdays. Young couples courting often exchange flowers as a sign of affection. Flowers adorn all aspects of the celebration of weddings and anniversaries. All too often we loose those who are near and dear to us. Thus, it seems fitting that in memorandum to those we love, we show our appreciation and respect with an arrangement of flowers that is reflective of the personality of those who have passed.

Sympathy designs can be used to express a story or different aspects of the personality of the deceased. The mere presence of flowers at a memorial service changes the tone of the venue. Flowers provide a transition for those who find themselves in a stark reality to a softer more peaceful transitory state. Flowers are the essential medium used to express emotion in a time where words seems to be void of meaning.

A showcased above, a recent trend in floral tributes is personalization. Often times color is the main focus, but design, style, and various adornments are also popular. For example; incorporating an American flag for a veteran or using red, white and blue can symbolize their service and devotion to their country. One who loved the outdoors could have a more naturalistic design. Or a former Chef or Baker could have an arrangement made in a mixer with a spatula or whisk as an accent. Sympathy designs are the perfect way to express emotions that seem difficult to categorize. Let us customize a design for you and your occasion that will express your deepest sympathies.

Designing For Excellence

Earlier this summer Mary ventured up to Texas A&M to participate in a hands on class with Hitomi and other designers. The class focused on a few different areas including sympathy, bouquets, everyday arrangements, and floral jewelry (or as we like to call it - living jewelry). Below are a few pictures from their style filled weekend.
