DESTINATION Wedding BOUQUETS!!




My Custom Tropical Orchids and Callas Bouquet!
More info on my bouquet at the link below:

Gaining in popularity are the getaway romantic weddings! Anything goes, from large receptions to intimitate family and friends gathering on a beach or gorgeous tropical paradise! Also popular are my Tropical Bouquets. I have some already made in tropical colors and florals, or I accomodate alot of custom design requests. The one to the left is unique in mixing gorgeous silk orchids and other realistic colorful blooms........careful, you might want to
water it!
My original design is such a fav of bold color mix of purple lisianthus, two different types of lavender and purple orchids, red phalanopsis orchid, and a punch of orange and mini poppies. Of course, the small calla lillies steal the stage, finished off with a partial orange satin ribbon to make all of it pop. Visit my shop at http://www.amorebride.etsy.com/
for more info ideas and to contact me for customizing requests
***
Complete this look by tossing the traditional veil into the ocean, and don this crowning glory of coordinating
miniature blooms and jewels, exquisitely designed by me
to go with the Tropical Bridal Bouquet!!
These Floral Designs are results of a joint effort of the bride
describing what she would like to me designing just for her!
***
Want something more simple? I created a new twist, tropical with wonderful Gerberas. This one is an assortment of colors with some green berry sprigs, you can choose any colors or combo you wish! Feel free to check it out at my link below >>>>>>

SPRING WEDDINGS!!




I Love SPRING and the WEDDINGS it brings!! I get to experience it early because of all the custom requests I design for this years wedding season. The above silk daisy bouquet is one of my ever popular bouquets because so many people think it is real. I get at least one e-mail a day asking about how I ship them because "are they real or fake"?? I hate the word fake, artificial, makes them sound undesirable, and they totally are not! Last year a frantic bride called me because her Mom tried "watering" her bouquet because she thought it was fresh flowers! LOL to me, but I did have to do some FREE repairs for the bride, I took it as a compliment, but didn't want my bride to have a wet bouquet! View More about it, here:

The above picture is another popular head piece, Daisy Flower Crown.
Is so versatile for brides, brides maids and flower girls.

And of course, don't forget the Tropical Bouquets, my favorites full of bright colors and Orchids, Callas, mini orange poppies, purple dendrobiums, yellow lillies and more!

Networking in Michigan



This week's topic is a little off the beaten path from weddings, since a couple weeks ago I got to do a "Meet Up" with a fabulous Graphic Artist, Kat at www.H20Works.etsy.com. Kat has been a in the field for alot of years with alot of experience. Originally from Flint, she now resides in Port Huron, MI. We met in Etsy's forums, More Meaningful Gifts thread. It is a wonderful networking group, where designers, artists and crafters exchange biz ideas. Over the past year, Kat had designed Banners, Avatars, and now, my NEW business cards,Pictured Above! aren't they awesome!!

Here are some awesome mini notecards Kat gave me that she>>> makes and sells on her website at www.HW0Works.etsy.com
Her service fees are so very reasonably priced, and her background enables her to give you creative advise for whatever direction your business is going in.

Our lunch was so enjoyable and I recognized her right away in the parking lot. We went to Michelle's restuarant in Warren, awesome polish food. This was a great experience, if you ever have the opportunity to meet someone you're networking with in your area, go for it!
