brisbane wedding flowers
Choosing your flowers for your wedding day in Brisbane requires planning and professional advice from a wedding and event specialist. Floral Productions, Brisbane florist is always able to inform you of seasonal availability of flowers and we are aware of suitable flowers that best suit Brisbane's weather conditions.
You will need to make an appointment to discuss your Brisbane wedding flowers, allowing approximately One hour. Ask to view our portfolio of Brisbane wedding bouquets, floral centre pieces and wedding bouquet styles. It's a great idea to bring along fabric swatches of dress colours and pictures of Bridal flowers that grab your attention. Things that are discussed are colours, themes, who needs what flowers, budgets, and cake and reception flowers.
Once you have decided on your Bridal bouquet, the style and theme can be carried through to the flowers for the bridal party as well as floral arrangements for the wedding ceremony and reception flowers.
One the day, Floral Productions, Brisbane florist can deliver your Bridal flowers, usually at the same time the photographer arrives. If you are planning to marry during Brisbane's warmer months, have lots of ice cubes on hand and place them in the bouquets water, and mist spray them during the day.
A great way to send a thank you gift to anyone who has made your day special is to pre arrange for Floral Productions to deliver floral bouquets to them the following day. These can blend with the wedding theme, or be totally different. Floral Productions, Brisbane florist can also supply a range of wedding table décor to match your floral theme, i.e. candles, lights, wax beads, and special sweets.
Creating a perfect day doesn't have to be a huge task, you just need to be creative with your ideas and don't be afraid of doing something different. And most of all enjoy the planning process and your special day.
flowers for special functions and corporate events
There is nothing like beautiful floral centrepieces to make a room come to life. These can consist of floral arrangements in corporate colours or table centres of a chosen theme. The flowers set the mood for the event. You can have elegant bowls of crisp white phalenopsis orchids for that classically formal function or large brightly coloured gerberas to create a fun party atmosphere.
Janet from Floral Productions, Brisbane florist based in Holland Park, can design your floral requirements around the type of event you are co-ordinating. Lighting also has a lot to do with setting the mood. Candlelight is very flattering and adds to the ambience of the room. This can be just one single pillar candle or many tea light candles or even a mixture of both. Online at the Brisbane florist you can also purchase scented wax beads that can be put into any type of glass vase or container. They burn slowly and expel a gorgeous scent to once again enhance your event. The new submersible lights are great used in a vase of flowers, the soft light filters through the stems creating a shadowing effect on the table.
If you are having trouble finding flowers in your corporate colours, try putting food dye in a vase of water. Flowers can then be placed in the vase or you can float candles on the top of the water. Floral arrangements can be tall, low or differing heights depending on the size of your function venue. It is always important to allow conversation at the table. If you are having low arrangements they can not be over 30cm high. If you are going with tall floral arrangements make them taller then 60cm. This allows for eye contact with the guest on the other side of the table. Maybe the tables are too small to place a table centre in the middle, why not create floral corsages for the chair backs.
Flowers bring luxury, beauty and fragrance to the room. Enjoy!
