A wonderful first year!

   Though we have been in the wedding business over 17 years this was our first year of creating primarily alternative bouquets. We've loved the fresh weddings we had this year as well but we have fallen in love with Etsy and our alternative bouquets.

We have shipped our bouquets all over the world. Many bouquets have gone to Australia and the USA, we have shipped to Gibraltar and the United Kingdom.
We were blessed with a feature in Vogue Conde Nast publishing BRIDES magazine August/ September issue in the UK.

We have been featured on many large and small blogs alike, each one we are grateful for.

Problem solving - communicating a visual art

After putting together a wedding this week our client still had a hard time with her bouquet. We had taken all of our images on your photo shelf in daylight. Her bouquet seemed to be looking a little flat thought we had made sure to follow her exact instructions. After taking images at serveral angles and different variance of day light during the day it then dawned on me.

My bride needed to see her bouquet being carried, on a person. We need to bring the bouquet to life for her.

I called on Iris to dawn her photo shoot dress and stand with the bouquet.

As soon as we sent this photo below our bride responded with in seconds! She was over the moon! 

She was able to feel the romance, warmth and softness of  her bouquet and visualize herself walking down the Isle holding it.

Pheww! job well done.
