January 2013 Wedding

Simple yet elegant.

Hunter Valley Weekend

I am so proud of this instal. I enjoyed every minute... my nails are probably still paying the price but it was still worth it.

Pinky/Orange

Lots more weddings!

Wedding

My Bride gave me a material swatch to work off and this is what we came up with... I really really love the colours:

Hydrangea's and Peony Wedding

This was my sister's wedding and we both went to the markets to pick out the flowers 2 days before the wedding. She wanted Hydrangea's and Peonies:

 Here are some pics I took on location:

My poor hubby had to deliver these vases for me (they weren't light) as I was in the bridal party. We had no idea it was 49 steps up to the reception room!

White Lily Wedding

I had 6 hand tied boouquets, 1 floral foam posy (for the bride), 2 hair circlets, and 2 baskets. They were very fiddly to work with but turned out pretty! 

Note: Lilies are currently in season (Aus. Spring) so they are huge at the moment. was lucky enough to get some average size ones this week.

Purple and White David Austin Wedding

Family Wedding! This wedding would have had the most stressful lead up so far. The brided wanted Peonies however due to the cold weather dragging out into Spring this year they aren't available. Luckily, David Austin's had just (and I mean just) come in to season. They are a garden rose with the most amazing smell:

Dad and Baby:

The Bridesmaids, Flowergirl and proud Father of the Bride:

The reception room was filled with the smell of David Austin Roses, Sweetpea, and Freesia's. All were very happy on the day! Yay Success!

Red and White Wedding

Here are some photo's from a wedding I did 23 October 2010

Winter Wedding

My Cousin's wedding this weekend was a beautiful afternoon wedding... finished nice and early which was perfect as I was a little tired by the end of it. Here are some pictures:

Corporate and Weddings

In class this week we made a hand tied custome bouquet with a wire frame and a formal linear arrangement in floral foam:

The handtied:

This is a formal linear arrangment in floral foam. I loved making this one. When I get my vase back that will fit the bowl I arranged it in, I will take some nicer photo's.

Cake Topper made as one piece and balanced on top of the cake. Its similar to making a fully wired bouquet but quicker and alot smaller!!:

Purple Paradise

Today in class we had to make a beach theme using the flowers and vases provided:

We also made a pomander ball. With the left over's, I made below Chrysanthemum's in a vase, and some orchids in a fish bowl vase (And, thanks to Maya for testing out the longevity of the pomander ball!):

Note to self: Do not put too many tea lights in a fishbowl vase especially if close to the top. Yeah you guessed it - Crack!!
