Most of our customers are coming in this week and are baffled at the upside-down look of the flower shop. The fresh flowers are outside of the cooler and it's starting to look like a tropical forest at the second register! What's going on here?
Well, for most that are wondering, we are undergoing some huge preparations for a wedding on August 15th. With excess of 500 Hot pink roses, 300 stems of pink orchids, 100s of tropical flowers, mounds of white hydrangea, 100s of gerbera dasies (the list could go on and on) the cooler space is to say the least... a little cramped. We want to assure all our customers that we still have flowers for sale, they are just a little scarce this week. Most of the floral arrangements for our wedding are on display at the registers, only because we don't have the cooler room for such
massive pieces!
But.....
"Do you sell fish too?" No, they are for the wedding also! They are gorgeous little buggers, the original we named Franklin the Second. Franklin has 11 cousins that are going to be conversation pieces at 12 guest tables for the wedding! They are definately conversation pieces at the shop already!
We are very proud and excited to be the florist for Kristina and Blake. Their wedding is absolutely gorgeous and they are such a fun couple! Congratulations!!!!
This is just a sample of one of the arrangements for this weekend. Not fully complete, as it is missing the cascading orchids. This is a very large bubble design that is placed on top of a 24" Martini Glass. Imagine the Watermelon-tini - YUM! Notice the size of my designer's hand to the left of the picture.... yea, it's that big.
