Presentation Inspiration

Brittany Myers, our Account Coordinator in our Orlando Studio enjoyed this past weekend in the wonderful New York City!

While enjoying the city, she found this cute quaint flower shop and she just had to stop and take a picture.

We loved the use of these ladders to present the floral bouquets. Another fun idea would be perhaps using this presentation even for escort cards at a wedding - attaching the escort card to a piece of ribbon and tying to the steps of the ladder. The possibilities are always endless. :) Enjoy.

MARRIED!

This weekend we had the honor of providing the floral decor for the wedding of Jacqueline and Tony at the Ritz Carlton Grande Lakes Hotel in Orlando, FL.

It was a beautiful event and we were thrilled to be a part of their big day, not to mention, the resume of amazing vendors involved!

Take a sneak peek provided by the wonderful Jeffrey Stoner of Stoner Video. Also a HUGE thanks to the fabulous ladies of E-Events for including us in this spectacular day!

Hello Spring!

We love Spring here at Botanica! It's our favorite time of the year mainly because the flowers available during this season are gorgeous. Brides during this season should really take advantage of all that Mother Nature has to offer!

With that being said, we found a picture that we enjoyed with a floral variety that we love, dahlias. The birch bark containers make these dahlias look so fresh and bright and oh so spring!

Friday Photography Fun!

After the food has been eaten, the band is gone and the flowers are dead, pictures and video are two of the only things left to help you remember your big day. Don’t let the conventional posed shots muddy up your wedding album.

Allow your photographer to experiment with some playful group shots that will capture the exciting emotion of your wedding day, because after all, the fun artistic photos are the ones that you'll really want to proudly display in your home! Those posed family shots nowadays are taken to satisfy Mom, Dad and Grandma! Have fun and let your photographer be the true artist that they are, afterall, that's what you hired them for, right?!

Wednesday Inspiration

We came across this picture and LOVE the idea of such an interesting structure for ceremonies. You could use it as inspiration for the overall décor for your wedding or just a statement piece at your ceremony. Simply add some natural looking elements like benches, lanterns, and unconstructed floral arrangements to achieve a romantic casual elegance. Can you just image how amazing your photos would be in front of this? Talk about romantic!

We love lounge furniture!

If you are looking to create a fun and dynamic element to any party or wedding, consider adding a lounge area. Whether it’s a pre-function space for cocktails, or an “after glow” following your reception, pair some furniture with lighting, draping, floral décor, and props and you will be on your way to making an environment that is unique to your style and event.

This past weekend, we had a wedding under a tent on the beach and to provide something a little different and unique as an entry for guests, the planner arranged an entry tent. We took the tent and transformed it into a foyer, suspending a mirror over a mirrored credenza paired with a coffee table and lounge chairs, add flowers and candles and Voila!

Below are just a couple of images from past events where we've incorporated lounge furniture.
