Homecoming Happy

Last Saturday, Faytteville High hosted their 2013 Homecoming dance.  We partnered with the FHS Cheer Team to sell boutonnieres and corsages in a fundraiser.  

Here are a few samples of the designs we created.  

We had a blast doing this and hope to do more with Prom next spring!

Flower of the Month: June - Rose

The past few weeks we have shown how roses can be used in bouquets, centerpieces, and boutonnieres. As a final farewell to June and the Rose, we want to show you a variety of ways that roses can be used in other parts of your event.

Enjoy the pictures, take inspiration, and check back with us to find out next month's flower!

Flower of the Month: June - Rose

Over the past two weeks, we have shown some of our favorite designs for bouquets and centerpieces. And this week we are going to showcase boutonnieres and corsages. Traditionally, body flowers (flowers worn to show a person's significance) have been a nod towards the bridal bouquet or towards the color of clothing worn at the event. However, gone is that tradition! Boutonnieres and corsages have been upgraded to small pieces of art with as much importance as the other flowers in the wedding!

We hope you love these beautiful pieces of art as much as we have loved creating them!!

Prom 2012

This cute couple wore a coordinating corsage and boutonniere.

Ahh. Prom is complete! Every year the hustle and bustle of prom takes over the shop. Our tables were full of beautiful flowers just waiting to be wired, taped, and turned into a beautiful creation for the our young lads and ladies to wear. This year the theme was originality, long gone are the days of roses and coordinating ribbons, corsages and boutonnieres are now fashion pieces that are almost as important as the dress/tux that is worn.

Here are a few of our TOP favorites, and believe me - it was tough to choose just a few.

Boutonniere composed of Button Mums and Carnations. 

Corsage composed of Phalenapolis Orchid painted gold  and Stephanodis.

Matching Clutch and Corsage composed of Roses,  Hyacinth and  Baby's Breath.

True Love Tuesday: Breanna & Clint - May 26

May has been a month for Yellow! Breanna came to us wanting yellow and grey, but she wanted to add something a little off-beat to her boutonnieres and corsages. The solution: Felt leaves. And, instead of the traditional flower for the groom and groomsman, she wanted to use Billy Balls. (A personal favorite this season.)

The mix of warm yellows and soft grey in this wedding created a look special for this couple, and something fun for us, too!

For the dads we used a simple yellow Ranunculus, baby's breath, Dusty Miller, and a grey felt leaf. 

Each corsage was made special for each mother and grandmother.  The mother's wore wrist corsages made of a Spider Mum and Dahlia connected to a pearl bracelet. And the grandmother's pin-on corsages with Daisies, Billy Balls, and baby's breath. Each one included the grey felt leaves.

The Bride's bouquet was a mixture of Gerber Daisies, Garden Roses, Stephanotis, Billy Balls, Dusty Miller and baby's breath.

True Love Tuesday: Kayla & Will

Kayla wanted a sweet but beautiful bouquet for her wedding. Does this bouquet not make you want to just go out and sit in your grandmother's garden?! Which is perfect since Kayla had a beautiful garden wedding.

Thanks to Kathryn McGill Photography for the lovely detail shots!

Enjoy!!

Her bouquet consisted of Carnations, Wax flowers, Aster, Alstroemeria Lilies, Cushion Mums, and Stock.

We couldn't leave out the sweet little corsages and boutonnieres or the fabulous headpiece we created for the bride, groom and their families with coordinating blooms. 

Thanks to Kathryn McGill Photography for this detail shot!
