We were featured in Brides of North Texas

It was so great to open the latest edition of Brides of North Texas and see the beautiful wedding we created for Lindsey and Nathan. They were such a pleasure to work with and I love the bouquet that she envisioned and I created! The apple centerpieces were great and with the green orchids it all went beautiful together.

Tips for your Bridal Consultation

Ask me how we can maximize the budget:
I love working with brides and their budgets.I can suggest in season floral that are in the colors that you desire that will fit into the budget. Don't be afraid to share your figure, this is how we can work together to give you the wedding you desire at your complimentary consulatations.

Give me the Details:
Please share as many details about your day as you can. The colors of the dresses, the style of your dress and the style of the bridesmaids dresses. The style of wedding you are going for. i.e vintage, chic, elegant or casual. The details of your dress that you like and want to emphasize. If you have photos of your venue or church site share them...I like to look at your pictures too! Please share any pictures that you have collected of flowers, centerpieces and decor.

Add POP to your flowers:
Sure we can give you roses, but what about mixing in the unexpected. Let's use fruit, feathers or your mom's broach. Different elements mixed in with your flowers can give your guest something to talk about. We can even mix up designs for your bridesmaids bouquets or your centerpieces.

Ask me about the scents of flowers:
The fragrances in your bouquets is great if no one has allergies. No need to use fragrant flowers on your tables, it may interfere with the flavors of the meal.

Budget Saving Floral Tips


Here are three tips to help save you money with your wedding floral budget.

Splurge on YOUR bouquet- Get the pricey flowers that you want for yourself. This is your wedding day so go for the Peonies, Cymbidium Orchids and Gardenias.

Centerpieces- Go with in season floral that is in your colors. Your florist should be able to work with flowers that are not only in your colors, but in your budget. Another good cost saving centerpieces is candles and your florist can provide different candle centerpieces as well.

Bridesmaid’s bouquets- The bridesmaid’s bouquets can add up, but if you go with a small size and in season blooms as well it will save you a lot. Also there are some beautiful in season single blooms you can go with like hydrangeas and calla lilies!
