Mary & Mike's Wedding - Coindre Hall - 7.1.17

With the ruffly white petals of garden roses and peony, the delicate scent of tuberose and lots of lush green ferns, these flowers were bound for glory.

Mindful Meditation Event

Last week we designed for a lovely corporate event with a theme of "Mindfulness" which essentially is the practice of focusing your attention on the present moment—and accepting it without judgment.

The event was held in the Garden Room at the Darien Community Association in Darien, CT.  The guest speaker was Dan Harris of ABC News whose book, "10% Happier: How I Tamed the Voice in My Head, Reduced Stress Without Losing My Edge, and Found a Self-Help That Actually Works", deals with the topic of mindful meditation.

The flowers were designed to be calming, serene and of course, seasonally appropriate like a forest floor in Spring. Here are some photos:

8' farm tables gave the event a communal, intimate feel.

Lush 6' moss table runners were created and topped with votives, several fern varieties, clover, foraged andromeda and seasonal white flowers such as muscari, alyssum and pansies

Autumn Centerpieces

This week, while dreaming up designs for autumn centerpieces, we where kicking around ideas and inevitably the idea of using a pumpkin as a vessel came up.  I was skeptical immediately.  Conflicted too because I wanted to explore it & challenge myself to create something beautiful while steering clear of the prototypical, FTD-esque model for a "fall centerpiece".  Proud to say, I think we stayed true to ourselves and made them natural & unique.

Flower Deliveries

Every week we deliver flower arrangements to a few local businesses and The most perfect August day instinctively inspired this week's flowers.  

Vivid sunny yellows. Purples and oranges like a hazy sunset and sky blue delphinium.

Quintessential summer.
