Let’s get social!

So much love for this gorgeous, modern and moody bouquet. It gives us all the feels! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Would you choose a moody palette for your wedding? Or maybe you’re more light and bright? I don’t think I’d be able to decide if I did it all over again! .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As many of you know, I've been sick and out for the count for the past several days. Now that I'm 75% better, I was so ready to dive back in to work on Monday. It felt so good to be back in the office again! I have some major catching up to do, but I've been so restless that the overload is welcome (call me crazy)! 🙌🏼 I've been ITCHING to do something creative, and you all know me, that means my imagination is going absolutely wild! Once I catch up on work, I'm excited to do something fun and creative. The question is... what shall it be?! 📸: @LovisaPhoto

Oh Hi Spring! We see you! 👋🏼 That time the bride wanted a garden inspired seating chart and @lbevents nailed it. Beautiful, leafy perfection am I right?! 🌱 The perfect way to ring in the first day of Spring!

The loveliest bouquet for the loveliest bride. These daffodils scream all things spring, and the amazing weather we’ve had over the last few days has me and my garden READY for all the sunshine! Although the weather app says it’s supposed to rain tomorrow. But then hopefully it’s back to blissfully sunny skies. 🤞🏼

So many people jump into the floral industry expecting it to be all the fun and pretty stuff- working with flowers and designing beautiful arrangements. Don't get me wrong, that is definitely part of being a florist, but in reality, it's 90% administrative work and making business decisions. I frequently get asked all sorts of questions about running a business- from how I structure my pricing, to where I source my flowers, and how I send out proposals. The hard truth is many have the talent to be a florist, but most don't know how to run a profitable business. Most new businesses don't make it past the first two years. I'm thinking about talking more about this side of my business here on social media and in my stories. Would you want to hear more about that? What topics would you specifically like to learn?

Head over heels for this ranunculusly beautiful floral basket from Paul & Caitlin's wedding. It was all kinds of rainbows and sunshine. Guaranteed to make you smile. 🌈☀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Today finally felt like a spring day - with the sun shining warm, the breeze blowing the palm trees, flocks of birds playing in the wind, and people spending time on walks.....
I saw it all from my bedroom window 😂😷🛌🤒

Being stuck in the house sick has me reminiscing on happier days when we hosted Penelope's 5th Birthday Party. I asked her what she wanted her party theme to be and she said Frozen and unicorns. So, along with a few of my talented friends, I mixed the best of both and threw her an epic birthday bash! How cute is this?! Doesn't it make you want to be 5 again? 🦄

The process is all part of the journey. If you've been watching my stories you know that this week has been rough. Our house is a construction zone, we've had some huge events that were amazing but kicked my butt, the hubby was out of town, daylight savings (all you mamas feel me?) and on top of it, myself and the kids are sick (again). But I'm just trying to take it for what it is- a season. I know one day I'll look back at this season of craziness and laugh, it's all part of the bigger picture. Take this arrangement... it's not finished, but still beautiful in its own right. 😍 📸: @LovisaPhoto

These dyed carnations make my heart go pitter patter. I'm always looking for a way to add fun and unexpected elements to my designs, and this soft blue always does the trick. 📸: @LovisaPhoto

Nothing says desert vibes like juicy peaches, bougainvillea, and cacti! Just add sunshine! ☀️ Speaking of which, with Festival season right around the corner, who else is ready for some warmer weather (and a tan)? 🙋🏼‍♀️ .

I was just looking over our bookings for the year and feeling so incredibly blessed by all the amazing brides we get to work with. To all of you who have referred your friends to us, we can't thank you enough. Your referral is the best compliment you could ever give us! Okay, gotta go before my heart bursts. 💗 .

I am LOVING this fresh spin on Franciscan Gardens. @fawnevents designs embraced the venue's garden vibes with a modern, yet moody twist.

If you're struggling to get through the week, first of all, fear not. The weekend is just around the corner. Second, this editorial for Modern Luxury Weddings is guaranteed to cheer you up. I'm like a broken record when I say I LIVE for color, and this tropical color palette is no different. I feel like it refreshes my senses and lifts my spirits. Who is with me? ☀️

This lush garden wedding was GOALZ! 🙌🏼 I mean, we literally had baskets of greenery dripping from overhead. It reminds me of a scene out of the Secret Garden, and I want to have a tea party in it. Pinkies out and everything 👌🏼 😍
