Coral colour wedding

Another recent wedding for team Dragonfly was based around the clients love of the coral colour spectrum.
We installed large sandstone urns at the ceremony at Kincoppal chapel and also did the table centrepieces for their reception at Centennial Parklands restaurant.

60th birthday party flowers

It was one of my favourite customers 60th birthday on the weekend.
We put the finishing touch on her celebration at the Vaucluse tearooms by doing vases filled with a profusion of pink.

 

hydrangea, sweet peas, nerines, garden roses, hyacinth

and snap dragons.

tulip season

We are in the midst of tulip season here in Sydney.
These beauties have been on my kitchen bench over the weekend and I've loved their splash of colour and the way they keep growing, moving and evolving.
Definitely one of my favourite flowers. Yes indeedy!

Woodland wedding styling

Team Dragonfly did the styling and floristry for a beautiful wedding at Centennial Parklands restaurant on Sunday.
Logs, moss, grapes, miniature pears, succulent heads, parrot tulips, phalaenopsis orchid stems, dodder vine, banana leaves, trailing ivy, pomegranate, limes, berries and gumnuts...

 

For the ceremony we lined the aisle with metal buckets of apples, grapes, white flowers and foliages.

 

 

At the end of the aisle were sandstone urns filled with foliages, lillies, orchids and berries.

 

The bar area for the ceremony was lined with a vignette of vessels filled with fruit, flowers, moss, vines and logs.

 

 

The gift table had a vignette which include gorgeous little jars of jam as bonbonniere for the guests

 

 

 

We hung "chandeliers" made from mossy sticks, tortured magnolia, dodder vine and trailing ivy

 

 



The 14 guest tables each had an individualised vignette

The cake table... what a feast!

 

 

 

It was such a privilege to be part of such a beautiful wedding.

Mazal tov Michelle and Leon!

While we were in Paris last year I kept commenting (over & over again!!) on the beautiful packaging on the food.

Check out the gorgeous baskets that the fruit came in at the local supermarket (top pic), and the biscuit tins (bottom pic)

Apothecary jars...

What's not to love!?

We have an every growing collection at home, and I also use them a lot with flowers for events, especially in clusters for weddings.

As with most of the things I love and collect, the older, the better!
