Wedding Season: Behind the Scenes

by

Floral-Design-Studio-NYC-7

Fridays in our studio are a whirlwind of activity, especially when we’re deep in wedding season! Buckets and vases of roses, hydrangea, garden roses, craspedia and lisianthus line every surface and fill the studio with their summer fragrance. Our design team checks and prepares every blossom, then meticulously assembles bouquets, centerpieces and ceremony florals for a weekend full of beautiful weddings.

There’s nothing better than working hard at what we love, surrounded by a team who puts so much care into every detail. When it comes to weddings, every petal and leaf, every pearl and every ribbon matter.

If spending time surrounded by flowers and fellow flower enthusiasts looks like heaven to you, come join the fun! Sign up for a flower class. You will be amazed at how much you learn in just a few hours. Our August class sold out fast. Next up, Contemporary Centerpieces on September 9th. We’d love to see you there!

Wearable Tech Engagement Ring Records Memories

by

Jewelry has always served as a memory keeper. Now, diamond engagement rings can literally hold wedding memories like vows, photos and web links. Momento Diamond rings by Galatea will be introduced this fall. Luxury wearable wedding tech has truly arrived.

“Think of 50 years from now, and it has your proposal and your wedding vows and your baby being born and your baby saying, ‘I love you.’ It will be so valuable in 50 years, when you actually hand it over, and you can say, ‘Everything is in here.’ It’s like a locket but interactive,” said Galatea founder Chi Huynh said in JCK magazine.

Wedding Flower Inspiration From Sweden’s Royal Wedding

by

Wedding-Flowers-Swedens-Royal-Wedding

Sweden’s Prince Carl Phillip married Sofia Hellqvist this weekend at Stockholm’s Royal Palace. Who can resist a royal wedding? Lavish settings and nearly-unlimited budgets make royal weddings a wonderful source of wedding inspiration. Watching a bride become an actual princess seems to prove that fairy tales do come true. Of course, what transfixed us about Sweden’s big event was the wedding flowers.

Flower walls of vibrant pink blossoms served as backdrops for both the ceremony altar and the head table at the reception. Outside, extravagant, deeper pink flowers decorated stone columns at the front of the palace. The bridal bouquet included cream and coral garden roses with sprigs of myrtle. Cuttings from the same plant have been carried and worn in the hair of Sweden’s royal brides for over a century.

Our New Look on Instagram

by

Instagram-Wedding-Flowers-Inspiration

If you follow us on Instagram you may have noticed something different. So far 2015 is a year of big, beautiful changes for us. First we gave our site a new look, and then we moved into our new Manhattan showroom. As Creative Director, it’s important to me that everything we do conveys the romantic, feminine aesthetic of Bride & Blossom, so our Instagram feed is now a more carefully curated stream of pure inspiration. Behind the scenes moments from events like our showroom launch party, wedding details that thrill us, and the very best of our wedding-flower creations. Follow us and let me know what you think of the change.
