A Fantasy in Flowers

The Palencia Club Wedding, St Augustine

12.11.2018 by admin // Leave a Comment

A Fantasy in Flowers was delighted to create wedding flowers in a soft romantic palette of ivory and blush at the Palencia club in St Augustine, Florida. The day was gorgeous, cool and windy. We sat outside by the lake and arranged the garland wreaths for centerpieces, while Levine Events tested the sound and played music. One of the perks of being a wedding florist is that we get to see and enjoy the most gorgeous wedding venues in North East Florida. This cozy Mediterranean three story venue is able to accommodate 150-180 guests, with 4 separate dining and meeting rooms, overlooks a beautiful lake, fountain and has an outdoor area designated for ceremonies.

The bride’s bouquet was filled with a mixture of blush and white flowers which include roses, blue thistle, button mums, spray roses, cremones, and garden greenery.

The bridesmaid’s bouquet was a similar gathering of blush and white flowers.

the flower girl carried the most adorable floral hoop. This is a great option for little ones who might not be at the age to throw petals or at a venue where it is not permitted.

The reception was filled with whimsical globes filled with green moss and fairy lights, nestled in a bed of silver dollar and salal garland, which was highlighted by blush pink open roses.

The gorgeous wedding cake was artistically made by Sweet Weddings. To start with the smell was amazing! The sugar roses were so well done that they looked exactly like the fresh ones. I held up the roses next to them and was calling people over to check it out. The skill that Sweet Weddings cakes has is absolutely incredible. We added fresh greenery with blush and white flowers to fill out under the cake stand and give the table a little visual interest.

Silvia + Jacob’s Epping Forest Yacht Club Wedding

11.30.2018 by admin // Leave a Comment

Silvia and Jacob’s Epping Forest Yacht Club wedding was a waterfront design in vibrant blues, purples, green and white. It was a pleasure working with the couple and the vendors!

Fantasy Floral Design Details

Bouquets: Silvia’s cascading bouquet was made with blue delphinium, white roses, Asiatic lilies and just a sprig of greenery. It smelled wonderful! Her bridesmaids carried a cluster of light blue hydrangea.

Ceremony: We added blue hydrangea clusters to the aisle chairs- the pop of blue was so pretty and really helped draw the eye to the altar. We also made a stunning garland to define the ceremony- we accented the greenery with orchids and roses, then added huge lilies at the corners. We used much of the same floral in the built-in urn (a fun feature at Epping Forest).

Reception: The sweetheart table stole the show! We made a lush garland with lots of roses, hydrangea (mini and full size), roses and lilies to drape in the front. It was also flanked by two large arrangments on white pillars and added another on the floor. It had so much WOW facotr! The centerpieces were made with the same types of florals, but also included orchids. The purply-blue blooms looked so pretty with the pops of white and greenery.
