Obsessing: The Anti DIY Floral Arrangement

Lately I've been obsessing over big fat blooms as reception flowers - the anti DIY floral arrangement if you will!  Think gloriously large arrangements overflowing with blooms.  Complementary colours keep everything in unison and let the size of the bloom speak for itself.  Okay the budget may not always stretch to this but a girl can dream right?

Garden Wedding Details To Love

3 details I love from this Style Me Pretty Orange County Garden Wedding.

1. The flowers, oh lordy the flowers!  They are positively decadent.

2. A Great Gatsby style bridal party.  Loving the feel of this.

3. The programmes, complete with customised doilies.  Swoon! 

New Ways To Wrap Your Bouquet

Looking for some inspiration for your bouquet?  As Merriment Events points out, don't forget about the fabric wrapping your flowers together.  It can be a design statement all in itself.  From buttoning to layered ribbon to a structured bow there are so many ways to avoid the stock standard tight white ribbon banding.  Take a look......

Flowers In The Hair

Oh me, oh my! I just HAD to blog about this lavender delight from KT Merry via the ever amazing Bright Bazaar. I have four words: Flowers. In. The. Hair.

Details that Inspire

There are so so so many details I love about this Ritzy Bee rehersal dinner event. What can we learn from this lovely shindig? 1. Flowers don't always need to sit in vases instead, how about in gorgeous monogrammed tote bags? 2. Don't ditch the vases, use them instead to create a serve your own nuts bar. 3. And serving drinks? For a glam touch,serve them on a tray over stacked glasses. Voila!

Current Obsession: Flowers In The Hair

I'm so obsessed with flowers in the hair at the moment. There is something so free and natural about it all. I have absolutely no where to do this look but that doesn't mean a girl can't dream right?

An Idea For Your Wedding

Oh Geepers! I'm sorry I've been MIA lovely readers, I've been so busy at work. But don't worry, that can't stop the wedding idea's flowing! How about this - Flowers can come in bouquets and bunches but better yet, I love the idea they can be used to create your initials to welcome guests to your wedding. Fab!

Lilac Season

I am having a bit of a flower moment these past couple of weeks - I think its because its so cold here that the flowers at the local market are pretty average. Well on the other side of the world Life In the Fun Lane is lucky enough to have warm weather and warm weather brings lilac season! I'm loving the combination of mason jars in a wire frame basket to give the flowers a bit of structure and industrial interest. If only lilacs were in season here!

Sophisticated Floral Table Arrangement

Eeeep. You know sometimes you can think little vases of flowers on table arrangements can be cute....but can they be sophisticated? Well the answer thanks to Sofia Crokos via Camille Styles is a resounding yes! Just check out this soiree Sofia did recently - for me, its the elements surrounding the florals that bring everything up a notch. From the silver plates to the white linens to the frosted vases. I. Love. It. All.

Glorious Flowers In My House

I was lucky enough this month to have some beautiful flowers in my house thanks to being given a BIG bunch of flowers to take home after a lovely friends wedding and another friend who left a post 'thanks for letting me stay at your house' pressie. I felt so lucky. Of course, the perfect thing to do was split them into smaller bunches so the flower fun could be all over the house!

When Hooks Wont Do

Some venue hire's won't allow you to place hooks or nails into the walls. But this Martha Stewart wedding's idea finds an easy way to get around that. A sweet little daisy garland was hung over each doorway and then a daisy initial was suspended from each door. It looks so cute doesn't it?.

Loving This

My cousin Matthew (who's a florist) is going to kill me when I tell you this.  But sometimes, I think wedding flowers can be stunning when they are beautifully simple.  Just look at these little beauties.
