A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of designing and constructing all of the flower arrangements for a fairy tale themed wedding in Ft. Lauderdale for Dorothy (Bride) and Clayon (Groom).
My "creative" process for these weddings usually goes something like this:
1. Speak with bride and groom to get a feel for their style, personality, theme, etc.
2. Sketch out some ideas and color pairings.
3. Get ideas approved. Come up with budget/cost.
4. Place order with my favorite flower vendor, Miami Dutch.
5. Book days in my schedule to work on flowers. Set delivery days, collect payment.
6. Get supplies, have flowers delivered, spend two or three crazy sleepless days working on the order, and delivery to the venue the morning of the wedding.
Sometimes it can be laborious, miserable and hectic, and sometimes it can be easy, enjoyable, and a great opportunity to meet amazing people/ lasting business connections. It's always worth it when you come out with an experience like this:
*Catering done by KnD's Events.
*All photos courtesy of an amazing Miami photographer, Liam Crotty.
Another wedding is coming up in January! Stay tuned.
