The spring flower lovefest continues! Gorgeous white and green parrot tulips were the spring element of choice for Krystal and John’s wedding late April wedding. Bouquets were created to reflect a colour visions of black, white and spring.

The décor of choice was a modern fresh design complemented with another seasonal favourite – cherry blossom branches!

What’s the first flower that comes to mind when you think of spring? Well, for many, it’s the tulip.

For Shelley’s April wedding to Anthony, these beautiful blooms were combined with another year round favour for a clean fresh spring bouquet.

The desire to show love through the sharing of something beautiful is innate in all of us.

My little boy, brough me this from his grandparents cherry tree today.

At the heart of it, flowers given whether as a boutonniere or corsage or place as a centerpiece is just that – sharing love.

There are so many things to love about what I get to do, but I must say that this project was one of my sweeter opportunities.

My amazing client Ashley whose wedding flowers I had the pleasure of creating two years ago this June is a major force at Benefit Cosmetics called me to create florals that would be reflective of the Candy Pink Launch for their new line of cosmetics. Lollipops and Candy were the inspirations of force.

It’s a perfect way to celebrate a bridal shower for a sweet treat theme!

Flowers For A Good Cause | Floret.ca

Floret had a wonderfully unique opportunity recently to make a contribution in a way that it knows best to raise funds for a very worthy cause.  The Markham Stouffville Hospital.

Florals for every table were contrbuted as well as six feature arrangements that were auctioned off to raise over a thousand dollars!

Spring is one of my favourite times of year and it’s not so much because the weather, but more because it means the arrival of nature’s most delicate and beautiful blooms.

Jessica’s bouquet was created with roses, hyacinths and stunning stephanotis accents to complement her blue and Classic Cream wedding.

The reception was complete with the fullness of fresh blue hydrangea and elegant roses.

Come and stop by!

Earlier this week, I received a lovely note from my client Rana, whose beautiful wedding last September, I still have yet to feature.

I’m having trouble picking from my photos, but I’m getting close.

She was writing to let me know that she had been on the blog at Wedluxe and saw flowers featured that she knew were mine before she even saw the credits. How cool is that!

I went to their post on March 12 and sure enough Lesley and Renato’s wedding that I wrote about in my blog on June 8 last year was featured.

You can see my original post here: http://floret.ca/blog/glamourous-elegance-at-the-thompson-hotel/

A few days after that I received an email from Lesley to let me know about the feature along with the wonderful news that she and Renato are expecting their first baby in the summer!

It’s a wonderful reminder that a beautiful wedding is only the beginning of a beautiful life together!

It’s a word used much these days “luxe”.

Flowers so premium that it’s uncommon to see them.  I think that there would be few to question that the combination of the flowers found in Laura’s bouquet for her early March wedding could be considered anything other than of the purest luxury.

The unbelievable scent of the gardenias would make this fact indisputable.

Nothing says spring quite the way a beautiful cluster of white tulips does.

Fresh, simple yet stunning and timeless and of course, finished with a little twist of grass and bling.
