TODS Grand Opening at Buckhead Atlanta

I had so much fun at TOD'S Grand Opening in the new Buckhead Atlanta shopping center last Thursday.  Production company Pure Melon hired Flower Bar to host a classic flower cart at the event.  I hand tied over 85 bouquets for TOD'S guests, and everyone was excited to go home with their own blooms.


Caren West PR chose orange blooms for this event.  We used 200 orange gerberas, 300 tulips and ranunculus, and 300 stems of white monte casino.  I was so happy to see Caren and Chad at the event, it shouldn't have been a surprise that they were the promoters, but it was great to see them there!

Birthday at Napoleon's Grill, Decatur

Happy Birthday Nancy!  Nancy is a wildly creative business owner, mother, and realtor/renovator extraordinaire.  When we got the call for birthday flowers from her husband, who owns Napoleon's Grill, we knew we needed to do something artsy and pretty for her birthday dinner.


We made two pieces for the occasion. The one above features a pink ice protea with pink ranunculus, yellow yarrow, white dahlias and lime green yoko ono's.

Her other arrangement has two mini pink hydrangeas added to the vibrant spring flowers.

Nancy's birthday dinner was at Napoleon's. Napoleon’s is a lively, upscale “Food Focused Pub” that features a creative and affordable menu. To quench your thirst they offer 16 craft beers on tap, 50 bottle beers, full bar, and 14 wines by the glass and a reserve bottle list.​​​  It’s the perfect place to discuss local happenings, celebrate birthdays, graduations, engagements, winning a game…or losing a game.  Napoleon’s is the place to make it memorable, and Flower Bar can add a special touch of décor.

Bloom Floral Design + Flower Bar = Jessica Wedding

I am blessed to have several other floral designers and shop owners as trusted friends and colleagues in the industry.  When we see each other at the wholesalers, there are always friendly hellos and supportive chats exchanged.  There have been occasions where we've pitched in to help each other out, with an unusually large order, or even an emergency.  I am always happy to help, and I am so grateful to know I have backup in return, if I ever need it.

This past weekend, I helped the talented Cathy Brim of Bloom Floral Design, who had a scheduling conflict with a surgery.  After a quick two-piece graduation ceremony order, I focused on her Saturday wedding at Decatur First Methodist Church.

 
Cathy gets all the credit for consulting with the Bride and choosing the flowers to use, I just put them together. :)

The Wedding party bouquets had white roses, lisianthus, ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, chamomile, mint, rosemary and dusty miller.


I love these corsage and boutonniere boards! What a great way to transport and display personal flowers.


Everything else was used in the two large ceremony arrangements below. Tall multi-bloom cymbidium stems, larkspur, stock, roses, chamomile and babies breath, finished off with some dusty miller.  These pieces were to be moved and repurposed at the reception, held at Whahoo Grill. I know Pam who owns Whahoo. She and her staff are easy to work with, and their Private Garden Tent is an absolutely wonderful setting for a wedding reception, or any other event!
