A Crystallized Fuchsia Wedding Ceremony and Reception Decoration

 

For the ceremony, we have created a crystallized bling! bling rectangular draping. The room is also fully-draped to add a romantic touch.

For the reception, we have used a cream voile backdrop with fuchsia LED uplights, with multiple tiers, split head table set-up. Tables are dressed with fuchsia satin tableclothes, with cream voile and crystal cuffs and strands at swag points. Two large ostrich feather arrangements on silver candelabra are used beside the head table.

 

Amy and Vincent – A Romantic Fairytale Wedding

 

Congratulations to a beautiful couple, Amy and Vincnet. Wishing the two of you a wonderful journey as you build your new life together!

Amy is a romantic bride and white is definitely her favourite colour. White symbolises sacred and pure. It’s a simple colour, yet it works very well with other hues, and in this case, purple. During her wedding, we have helped her design a beautiful “Cinderalla Pick-up Style” receiving table and cake table- with a touch of bright crystal buckle showered with purple petals on the top of the table to add a little more romanticism into the atmosphere.

Amy’s bridal bouquet was very special. Not only were there white hydrangeas, but fresh lavender roses, purple lisianthus, ivory hypericum berries and misty blue limonium were also used.  The bouquet was finished with an ivory satin wrap which had pearls and diamond brooch to give the bride the extra “bling”.

Below are some photos of the happy couple, the beautiful bouquet, and of course, the decor of that night. Enjoy!

Audrey and Jaejun’s Wedding — A Vintage x Beach Theme Wedding

 

Congratulations, Audrey and Jaejun!  Your wedding is truly beautiful.

Audrey and Jaejun live in Korea, and have decided to host their wedding at the Bayview Golf and Country Club in Thronhill, Ontario. I am glad that someone whom I have never met, half way across the world, appreciates my style of work, and have chosen me to be their florist and wedding decorator.  I guess it is flattering to know that the couple is comfortable to book my service without evening meeting me in person!  I guess my work is just consistently beautiful 🙂

It wasn’t until few days before their wedding day, when I finally got to meet the couple in person in Toronto, where we confirm all the final details for the wedding.

Please check out the photos below from Audrey and Jaejun’s wedding.  It is filled with beach elements, with a touch of vintage!

Florence and Jerry’s Wedding — A Simply Elegant Wedding

 

I am delighted to be the decorator for Florence and Jerry’s wedding.  The couple has chosen the Estates of Sunnybrook to host their wedding.  The Estates of Sunnybrook is one of my favourite places; it has a lot of character and charm, by fusing traditional architecture with modern interior design.

In addition to working with the awesome couple, I also get to see some of my awesome friends on the wedding day, including Peggy Lee and Eric Choi.

Peggy is an talented makeup artist.  Like always, I saw her working the magic on Florence, but then again the bride already has a beautiful canvas to work with.  Eric is another fabulous person to work with.  His photos always capture the precious moments of the wedding day, not to mention his work is always consistently beautiful.

Check out the photos of Florence and Jerry’s wedding.  Some photos are courtesy of Eric Choi.  Enjoy!

Kema and Lawrence’s Wedding — A Gothic Fairytale Story

 

Congratulations Kema and Lawrence!  You two look wonderful together.  May your love for each other continue to grow each day.

Kema is a red girl, which means she must have red in her wedding.  The groom prefers to have some black and white element in the wedding to keep it formal.  When the couple told me that their wedding colour is red, black, and white, the word “Gothic” immediately just crossed my mind.  However, having a totally Gothic wedding may be too taboo for the couple’s family.  Also, Kema would like to have a fairytale wedding, just like how many girls dream to have one for their wedding day.

Who would imagine that a fairytale wedding can be combined with a Gothic-coloured theme?  Well, we sure pull this one off.  We have used red and black as accent colours, to make these bold colours more stealth.  To achieve a fairytale look, we have used twinkle lights everywhere — backdrop, tables, and the arch.  We have also added a ceiling drape to soften the atmosphere.

Below are some of the photos taken from hall, note that this hall has been decorated for dual usage (ceremony and reception).  The arch is removed after the ceremony, the ceremony chairs are re-used for the guest tables, and the ceremony table is used as the cake table after the ceremony.

 

 

Leila and Johnny’s Wedding Flowers — A Heartfelt Wedding

 

Congratulations Leila and Johnny!  May your love bloom brighter and your companionship grow sweeter with each passing year.

Leila is definitely an unique bride.  On our first meeting, she already told me that she wouldn’t settle for any wedding flower that looks ordinary.  She then told me that the only interesting bouquet she has ever seen is a bouquet with circular patterns.  Immediately, I knew she was referring to the biedermeier bouquet.  With the biedermeier bouquet, its blooms are tightly-structured and carefully-arranged in defined circular patterns of different coloured flowers, each ring containing one type of flower.

During the rest of our consultation, I discussed with Leila some other elements which can make bouquets more special, such as building them in heart-shape, adding bouquet jewellery, etc. Immediately, she adored those ideas and wanted to combine them with the biedermeire bouquet.

Traditionally, a well-structured heart-shaped bouquet requires using many blooms to form a balanced heart shape.  Using too little flowers would give the bouquet a diamond-shaped look (like the Superman logo!).  This implies that the heart-shaped biedermeier would require a lot of flowers, since we would need many blooms to give the inner-heart a nice heart shape, and even more flowers to form the outter-heart.  However, this would not be an option because the bride has requested not to build her bouquet too big.

Building this bridal bouquet is sure a challenge!  In order to create a well-defined heart-shape, we would need to position each flower precisely at the right location and at the exact angle.  Below, it is a heart-shaped biedermeier bouquet built by another florist, which is not as attractive, looks flat, and resembles a diamond more than a heart.

Now, compare what we have made for our bride (photos below) with the heart-shaped biedermeier bouquet built by the other florist (photo above). Our bouquet is more round and retains its heart-shape. We did not use a lot of flowers as the bride has requested so. We have also spiced up the bouquet by adding Swarvoski jewel picks and crystals to the bouquet handle.
