The weather is getting warmer, and the flowers are starting to bloom! Spring is here and we can’t help but think back to this incredible styled shoot that we took part in at The Olana! The bright colors and organic elements of this shoot are so whimsical and we can’t get enough! As a florist, this project was a dream. Playing with bright colors, fun shapes, and gorgeous architecture can only make for a beautiful result.
Keeping the french influence of The Olana in mind, we designed this bouquet to be captivating and playful, with dynamic dahlias stealing the show. Fun fact about dahlias; did you know they were originally classified as vegetables? Dahlias are tuberous flowers, which basically means they grow from a bulb, which is said to have a taste that resembles potatoes and radishes…. (I have not personally tried this, so I can’t confirm. I’ll get back to you.) Dahlias are most definitely one of my personal favorite flowers, especially for weddings. Not only are they breathtaking, but they are known to be a symbol of eternal commitment and everlasting union.
The stunning exterior of The Olana provides for such surreal installations that are sure to make you swoon. It’s sometimes hard to believe that this magnificent property is nestled in the DFW metroplex, and not the French countryside. The intentionally landscaped outdoor space is perfect for a romantic outdoor ceremony or cocktail hour.
For this design, we made sure to incorporate a wide array of blooms and greenery to produce the organic and lush feel. Talk about picturesque! This entire day felt like a Pinterest board come to life. However, this doesn’t come naturally… Countless hours are spent discussing, planning, and designing in order to bring each and every one of our projects to life. It’s hard work, but there is nothing more rewarding than being able to honor our couples in such a special way.
A lush and organic floral runner is sure to leave your guests speechless. Just imagine this table filled with your loved ones and closest friends, I can’t think of anything more perfect. There were so many gorgeous elements incorporated into this shoot but it doesn’t get better than the head table and sea of flowers surrounding our beautiful model!
We want to extend a huge shoutout to these amazing vendors who we collaborated with! Thanks to you all, we were able to bring this idea to life.
