| Kind Words From Brides Always Touch My Heart . . . |

Plumeria - Photo taken by my husband during our last trip to Maui.

One of the things I really like about being a wedding florist is all the opportunities I have to create something really beautiful for a once-in-a-lifetime occasion in a woman's life.
Having been a bride myself, I know just how special and magical the whole experience is. (And let's not forget how stressful too!)
One of the things I miss however, is being able to actually deliver flowers to the majority of brides I work with on their wedding day.
So when I receive an email from a bride who just received her flowers - telling me how much she loved them and that she got tearful when she saw them, I feel like I've done my job for her.
Today was one of those days and it makes all the hard work I do worthwhile.

|
Orange, Purple, and White Plumeria with a Crystal Dragonfly.

Here is the new Teardrop Plumeria Bridal Bouquet that will be for sale along with other matching flowers. It is a work in progress as I am so busy with wedding orders!
My goal is to work regularly on Wedding 2 Go sets and post them on my website as they are completed.
I have some really beautiful designs in mind for the future and I'm so anxious to create them. It is a fun opportunity for me to just design.

Red and White Plumeria Bridal Bouquet with Faux Pearls

I just completed this beautiful set for a very lucky 14-year-old.
Her mom asked me to create these for her daughter's upcoming 15th birthday party. How nice is that?? I can't imagine having something this nice for a birthday party.
I'm excited to see how she likes them when she comes to pick them up tomorrow.

I know just how difficult it can be to envision a whole wedding infused with color, theme, and style.
So when I found a wonderful blog at www.SnippetAndInk.blogspot.com I knew just how helpful it would be to share some of the inspiration boards found there, with my brides. Laura Hooper has given me permission to post some of them on my website. You can find more in the Color & Themes link.

| Plumeria and Orchid Haku Lei (floral headband) |
|
|
Natural Touch Orchid and Plumeria Haku Lei
|
This sweet Haku Lei was made for a young girl who is going to Hawaii for her mom's wedding.
I loved creating this because I have a special place in my heart for children and it gave me great pleasure to know I was making it for her. Her mom told me she was very excited to find that I could make this for her.

| Coming Soon! New Openings for Wedding Flower Orders . . . |
I'm excited to announce that I will be posting new opportunities for brides to book their wedding flowers with me prior to July, 2009. This has previously been closed so this is a great opportunity!
There will be specific ship dates listed on the Request a Quote Page that are currently open. As those dates are officially booked (signed contract and deposit) they will be removed.
Thank you! I look forward to helping make your wedding day a very memorable and beautiful one.

| Plumeria, Orchid, Freesia, and Rose Bridal Bouquet |
I just completed this lovely Bridal Bouquet (on the left) and Bridemaid Bouquet (on the right).
As you will notice, you can have all Plumeria bouquets for your bridesmaids if you want - and something else for yourself. Simply add a touch of Plumeria to your bouquet to tie the rest of the flowers together.
