The colors of the wedding were inspired by the ocean. Our bride chose sapphire blue color for her bridesmaid's gowns.</div>

Due to the hot weather and humidity in July here in The Woodlands, the bride chose to have her ceremony indoors. The beautiful fireplace in the new ballroom at The Palmer Woodlands Country Club, was decorated to serve as the backdrop for the ceremony. Her father had built a trellis to fit inside the fireplace and we filled it with a variety of greenery. The mantle had greenery, bridal flowers and candles along it's length. Flanking each side of the fireplace were large flower arrangements placed on top of white columns and a shepherd hook with 2 hanging lanterns.</div>

The bride and groom both wanted "wow" so we created this stunning cascade along their feasting table for the effect. The guests tables were decked in two complimentary styles : full & low and full & tall with matching hydrangea, roses, lisianthus and succulents.

Pinks and ivory were the chosen flowers for this wedding. The Ceremony took place at The Woodlands United Methodist Church in the main sanctuary. The brides bouquet was hydrangea with ivory roses accented with rhinestones. The bridesmaids carried a bouquet of white hydrangea and pink roses. On the altar we had two ornate columns topped with a pave of white blooms. On the pews we had beautiful white hydrangea puffs.</div>

This was a fun wedding to be a part of. The bride and her mom took a lot of time adding unique touches to the wedding setting like the sign leading to the ceremony "Today two families become one - we ask that you please pick a seat not a side" All the boutonnieres were made inside a shotgun shell, which was to be a surprise for the groom, a serious hunter. The bride's in Tiffany blue carried a bouquet of colorful roses while the bride carried a bouquet of all white Tibet roses with rhinestones in the center. Ceremony flowers were of blue hydrangea, white roses, lilies accented with babies breath with a lush line of rose petals to lead the way down the aisle.<br />

Inside, the reception area was filled with lots of little details from the collage of pictures with the sign "The hunt is over 06.21.14" to the entry table sign with "We love instagram please tag your photos". Undoubtedly a day to remember, making all the extra effort worth while.<br />

We've been seeing a growing trend in the use of succulents in wedding flowers in the last year or so. Succulents are a wonderful addition to a bouquet, giving great color and texture. Succulents come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes. <div>

We'd like to thank our friend Elissa at www.elissarphotography.com for the above photos. This bride wanted a variety of different succulents used in her wedding and as you can see they were in both the bride and bridesmaid's bouquets and also featured in the table centerpieces. The table centerpieces were created terrarium style in a variety of vases provided by the bride. The whole effect is very lush and textural. </div>

The blue dendrobiums have been fairly popular in recent years and add the blue/teal exotic color to weddings that a lot of bride's are looking for. They are not natural, but dyed at the farm and will not stain your gown - a fear of many brides! This bouquet has hydrangea, roses, calla lilies and blue dendrobiums.<br />

Table scapes have become very popular for head tables or King's table. The table scape involves multiple elements and heights along the length of the table. This table scape has multiple height candle sticks, some with candles and some with florals. On the table we had a variety of greenery including ivy, ruskus and sprengerii with votives and succulents, creating a lot of interest and textures.<br />

Love the soft cream and blush shades used in these vintage romantic style weddings. For this bride's bouquet we used blush garden roses, creamy ranunculas, anemonies, dusty miller and silver brunia. The wedding took place at Olde Dobbin Station. We decorated the aisle with babies breath pommanders and the table centerpieces had blush garden roses, anemonies, hydrangea, babies breath and dusty miller.<br />

This wedding took place in a private room at Amerigos. The ceremony site was created with our arch draped in fabric with flowers added to the top and as tie-backs. Aisle runner was installed and hydrangeas added to the chairs. A quick turn around and the room was transformed to the reception with a table scape of greenery, hydrangeas and lots of candle light. The bride carried a handtied bouquet of white hydrangea, roses and freesia.<br />

Our first weddings of the year depict the essence of a winter wedding with white flowers and lots of candles.</div>

This first wedding ceremony took place at The Woodlands Chapel in the Woods. The moss initial greeted guests at the entry into the chapel and our tall lanterns lined the aisle. The reception took place at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center. The guest tables had two styles of arrangements, the 1st a grouping of mercury glass candles, the 2nd a tall silver pedestal filled with white hydrangea.<br />

This next bride chose three styles for her centerpieces at her Woodlands Waterway Marriott reception. 1st style for the long tables had two centerpieces in cylinders filled with hydrangea and roses. The 2nd style was a set of three Monet vases filled with hydrangea and roses. For the 3rd style a tall cylinder had curly willow with hanging votives coming out of a base of hydrangea.<br />

The Annual Member Guest Event is one of our favorite events at the Club at Carlton Woods. This year we created a theme incorporating natural elements of the season - pumpkins & bittersweet. Different tablescapes were created; one with our iron tree accented with lemon leaf, mango calla lilies and hanging rose petals. The second with a set of three glass candlesticks accented with curly willow, succulents and orchid blooms decorated the base. The third table had a set of 3 candle sticks topped with pumpkins and candles with bittersweet along the table runner. The weather cooled off perfectly for this Autumn event.The Blooming Ideahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04499056390790661331noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176230307593271923.post-47595567895355227072013-10-20T12:17:00.000-07:002013-10-20T12:17:24.420-07:00Foyer centerpiece<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Our very own Mary McCarthy TMFA and Kim Jones TMFA were able to go through the accreditation testing to become AIFD members. AIFD (American Institute of Floral Design) is the creme de la creme of achievements in the floral industry. Many of our designers at the shop are TMF or TMFA (Texas Master Florists (Advanced)). But we are always trying to be better, do better and learn more. We are so proud of these ladies, and anxious to find out (at the end of the month) if they passed. Good luck!<br />

It's amazing what can be done with live flowers. The possibilities are limitless and the talent we saw this year was amazing. It's such a great way to learn, grow and cultivate your own floral designing style.<br />

If there's one thing we know about Vegas, it's that there is NO expense spared. This years AIFD symposium was no different. Held right on the strip in multiple casinos the flowers were AMAZING! And of course we have to share a few of these awe-inspiring designs with you! Go on, it's ok to drool a little, I did!<br />

Art comes in many different mediums. Our medium is flowers, and sometimes it's amazing what a little creativity can produce.<br />

Flowers are by themselves so beautiful, and due to the vast variety of different blooms the possibilities are endless. Keeping in mind the basic principles for design (color, balance, line, focal areas, etc) we combined firey colors and moving lines to draw the eyes in and upwards.<br />

As you get closer you begin to appreciate the detail of the combinations and smaller focal areas. The textures play off each other brilliantly and this was one of those pieces you truly could stare at for hours.The Blooming Ideahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04499056390790661331noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176230307593271923.post-29381517588270583782013-07-20T06:00:00.000-07:002013-08-05T10:19:54.262-07:00Can You Tell Purple Is Our Favorite Color?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Clustering flowers is one of our favorite ways to make a big impact. When paired with strong lines and beautiful colors it's always striking and makes a big impression. We love using different lines and shapes to create visual interest in our pieces. Like the Eremurus (Fox tail) in the top picture the curving vertical lines creates a sense of movement, while the green anthirium add stability to the foundation of the piece. Plus, with beautiful color combinations, you really can't go wrong.<br />
