We love Peonies!
Our current "love" of the moment is peonies. Traditionally they are a June flower. However, just these past two weeks we've been thrilled about getting in some beautiful cranberry red colored peonies!
If you're an end of May or June bride, take advantage of something not all Brides have the opportunity to enjoy... PEONIES! They are available in various colors and such a beautiful and stunning flower. We're busy with Holiday events this week, but we wanted to take a moment to share.
We hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays to all!!

Brides.com and Brides Florida Networking Event
On November 11th we had the honor of being one of many fabulous vendors asked to participate in the annual Brides.com and Brides Florida Magazine Networking Event.

Don CeSar Fall Inspired Wedding
Last month we were a part of a beautiful fall wedding at the Don CeSar in St. Pete Beach, FL.
Something we love about Fall is the color scheme. The deep orange and rich red colors are something that not all Brides can (or should) take advantage of. And two months out of the year, it's the perfect way to take your Florida wedding and give it that warm Autumn feel - the weather we Floridians love, even if our average temperature is still in the high 80s!! :)
We hope you enjoy this wedding as much as we did!
Ceremony/Reception: The Don CeSar Resort - St. Petersburg Beach, FL
Floral Decor: Us. :)
Wedding Planner: The fabulous Monica and Erica of Elan Event Studio

Kind words.
We recently received a very nice note from a past Bride and Groom's whose wedding we had the pleasure of being a part of this past October.
We just wanted to share, as these are the reasons why we love so much what we do. :)
Dear Ian and Zoë,
Thank you so very much for all of your creative energy and dedicated effort to help make our wedding day as beautiful as we could have ever imagined! Everything, from the garlands to the uncanny flowers was absolutely perfect! Considering the unqiue design objective we provided you with, we cannot imagine any other florist who could have produced anything closer to what we had in mind. There is a reason you are the BEST! It was also such a pleasure working with you. Thanks for everything!!
Warm Regards,
Evan and Mark

Botanica is now in ORLANDO! (and still in Tampa as well) :)
Botanica Orlando is officially open and ready for business!! Even prior to our Grand Opening Event and the completion of our new studio, we've enter Orlando hitting the ground running! We're excited about meeting new clients and working with new vendors of all kinds!
In order to make a grand entrance, we invited Orlando's premier vendors and local venues to check out our new digs and we figured the best way to showcase our new studio and introduce Botanica to Orlando was none other than throwing a party! (of course) :)
Check out the photos below!!!

A HUGE thanks to the wonderful Amy Pezzicara of PezzPhoto for photographing the event for us!

Organic Orlando Photos!
We've been slacking at Blogging recently, but with opening our new studio and our opening event, we got a little behind with the blog! So our apologies!
Below are some great pictures from Damon Tucci Studios from the Room Service Organic Orlando Event!
It was a fun event and a great first time experience for Botanica Orlando in the Orlando Market!
