Prom 2013

PROM
I always enjoy prom.  So much glitz and glam.  Amazing dresses and tuxedo's. It is all such a blast and so much fun for a florist. I get to use many elements that are not for everyday and so much fun. Feathers, rhinestones, beads, bracelets that are just gorgeous.  Oh, I love it all.  This is the first installment of prom flowers with several more to come.  I was just going to do one but I just couldn't pick a favorite out of all of the great photos I have and besides you can never see to many pictures of flowers.  At least I can't so sit take a minute and enjoy the first post of Prom 2013.

Whats Hot For Prom 2010-WIRE

You have probably seen this material often used in submerged vase centerpieces. It is a very popular material right now and for good reason. You can make swirls, curly-q's, abstact and geometric shapes to use on either a corsage or boutonniere. I used this trend many times in last years wedding season and it continues for 2010. Accent wire comes in many colors including, silver, gold, black, green, blue, red, purple,copper and pink. Be sure to see our previous post for more pictures of wire being used.

As You Wish will hand make just for you a wristlet out of silver wire and add texture with beads or pearls. Your wrist corsage can be mounted to it with a removable base and after prom you have a keepsake. Check out the photos here for some examples and to see the unique wristlet.

Dawn and Dave

Dawn and Dave held their wedding ceremony and reception at the Snus Hill Winery in Madrid. 

Dawn wanted an organic feel and something different and a little unusual. 

We added dried grape vine to her bouquet and also around the bottom of the bridesmaids bouquets.  

Check out the  guys lapel pieces.  I loved doing them.  Millet, succulents, grape vine pieces and green satin wrap.                                                                                                    

The corsage at the top right hand corner,  cockscomb, globe amaranth, some dried grape vine tendrils and green ribbon.  I loved making these.  They were the same for the men only minus the ribbon.  

The setting was charming and casual.  Intimate and personal.  A lovely place for a wedding. 

On a side note, those are my limelight hydrangeas in her bouquet.  My first year to grow them.  I may be a little partial but I thought they were beautiful. 

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

                                              The bridal party having fun with their photo's

                                           The groom watching his bride take a photo. 

I put this photo in just because I like it.  It is a good photo of a bout with detailing.  The guys vest had some silver threads running through it.  The silver wiring that is wrapped around the stem and the silver accent beads at the bottom top it off.  Details, details, details. 

Just some more fun photos of Crystals wedding.  Planning an outdoor wedding means taking a risk that the weather is going to cooperate with you but in Crystals case luck was on her side.  

When you are planning your wedding you should always do one thing.  Plan to have fun.  Crystal did and it showed on her face and in her photos.
