Betty and Adam

Betty and Adam's wedding was held at the lovely Tivoli Terrace in Laguna Beach. This was our first experience with Tivoli Terrace, and we were very impressed! The venue is beautiful and the staff is exceptional.

The ceremony site is a garden patio filled with flowers, fountains, and romantic lighting. The reception site includes a gazebo which displays the wedding cake, park lamps, and more flowers!

For Betty's bouquet, we included lavender roses, lavender spray roses, purple lisianthus, purple freesia, lavender scabiosa, purple tulips, purple stock and green dendrobium orchids. The Maid of Honor's bouquet was designed with similar flowers on a smaller scale.

The boutonnieres and corsages used some of the same flowers and were wrapped in purple organza ribbon.

The arrangement for the place card table also included Bells of Ireland and ivy. We added curly willow to the arrangement on-site.

Small arrangements adorned the candy table. We added hot pink Gerbera to complement the bright candy colors.

There is something so sweet about seeing a father give his daughter away on her wedding day!

Homecoming

Here are some Homecoming corsages we designed using the Fitz Design corsage bracelets. I love, love, love these! They are easy to use and make the corsages even more beautiful!

Criminalists Set Sail Aboard the Queen Mary

Last week, we designed the flowers for the California Association of Criminalists (CAC) banquet to be held in the Queen's Salon, aboard the Queen Mary. The luxury liner is a historic stationary ship, permanently docked in Long Beach, California, and is a floating museum of the beautiful Art Deco style of the 1930's. The prolific wood paneling, sharp design lines, silver fixtures and Greek artwork transport visitors back in time to the ship’s heyday. Large photographs of famous passengers adorn the enclosed Promenade Deck—Bob Hope, Cary Grant, David Niven, Sir Winston Churchill, and the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.

To keep with the art deco style, we started with silver trumpet vases, and then chose flowers that would have been popular in the 1930s, including mums, orchids and carnations. These wonderful vases are made by Vacuum Orna-Metal. We started with green amaranthus, orchids, mums and curly willow. We then added our color using roses, callas, carnations and alstroemeria. Lastly, we filled in with hypericum (coffee bean), creating lush and colorful table arrangements.

The banquet was held in the Queen’s Salon—a beautiful art deco show piece of high ceilings, marble fireplaces, etched mirrors and hardwood floors. We also provided orchid and curly willow dried arrangements as a backdrop for the stage area. The flowers were lovely in this stunning room!

It's Prom Time!

We had the honor of making corsages and boutonnieres for Prom. The flowers we used included Phalaenopsis Orchids, spray roses, and Waxflower for the corsages. The boutonnieres were designed with miniature Calla Lilies and ribbon matched to each date's dress. The corsages were especially fun to make, using the Fitz Design bracelets. The corsage bracelets come in an array of styles and colors, and make the corsages even more elegant and beautiful!

Rebekah and Brenden

Rebekah and Brenden's wedding and reception were held at the beautiful Edwards Mansion in Redlands. Although the weather wasn't cooperative for an outside ceremony under the gazebo, the wedding was still lovely held in an enclosed patio, and surrounded by twinkling white lights. The vintage chapel was also a nice backdrop for photos!

Rebekah's colors were lavender, purple, green and blue. Her bouquet consisted of blue Hydrangea, purple Lisianthus, green Dendrobium orchids and dark blue Delphinium.



The boutonnieres included Dendrobium orchids, Lisianthus, Veronica and green Amaranthus.

The corsages were designed with green Cymbidium orchids, purple Lisianthus and Veronica.

The head table main arrangement included blue Hydrangea, Bells of Ireland, dark blue Delphinium, green Dendrobium orchids, Plumosa and hanging green Amaranthus. The side arrangements were full of lush Hydrangea in six inch square vases and anchored with blue and clear stones.



The lovely cake was made by Jason Laudadio. He can be reached at 714-931-9373. He does exquisite work!

Aubree and Johnathon

This beautiful wedding took place at Green Mountain Ranch in Lytle Creek.

Early Summer Wedding

We recently designed some bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres for an Orange County wedding. The bridesmaids' dresses were a rich midnight blue, which was striking against the blues, purples and greens of the flowers.

We used green cymbidium orchids, light and dark blue Bella Donna delphinium, lavender and purple lisianthus, lavender freesia, lavender mini calla lilies, Bells of Ireland, Blue Maine limonium and green Kermit mums.

The Bridesmaids' bouquets also had yellow spray roses added. We love these colors together!

Happy Easter!

Outdoor Wedding Reception

We had the pleasure of designing fall-inspired table arrangements for an intimate wedding reception at a local private home.

The arrangements included Gerbera, sunflowers, roses, miniature carnations, hypericum and mums.

Similar flowers were used to adorn the three-layer cake and the throw bouquet, which were both wrapped in satin brown ribbon.
