Budgets budgets budgets,, thats what we hear a lot in this industry, we understand this and that is why if you do your research and set a realistic budget we can help you work it.. but if you try to seperate the tasks and do things on your own. you wont get the professional look you want, and will probably be even ore stressed working with 2 to 3 vendors than working with one. Please do not recommend buying the flowers at wholesale costs and arranging them yourselves.. you cant. We work with only the best florists in Kuwait to ensure good quality, creativity and the best service.

We have made a clear rule that we take on events with holistic approach, all aspects of the event go through us, except of course music and photography and the food. Its better this way, for you and then for us as well.

here are some articles on flowers that i thought would add value and give you a good insight on flowers for your upcoming events..

hings to Decide Before Venue Shopping 

 
How Many Guests Will I Have?
This is the most important thing to ask because it will determine the rest of your planning process, from your initial budget to how many chairs you’ll need. Until you decide how many guests you plan on having, you will be in a planning gridlock.

What is My Budget?
Few brides have the luxury of an unbridled venue budget. It is the first thing you should be booking, so figure out how much you can spend on your venue ASAP! 

What Will My Theme Be?
You can’t have a garden wedding anywhere but a garden. So, make sure you know what your theme will be before you think about shopping for a venue. While some themes can be more flexible – like, if you’re having a vintage wedding, you can decorate any space to suit your needs – other themes will lock you in to a certain type of location. Even if your theme is more flexible, it’s still smart to consider it when choosing your venue. For instance, it makes more sense to have a modern wedding in a clean loft space than to spend money disguising a decorative ballroom. 

 

 

 

And Sometimes……Bigger Is Better

 Your wedding day is one of the only days in your life where you are allowed to act like royalty.  So, why not go big? One of the best ways to accomplish this is by having floral decor that can really turn heads. And when it comes to turning heads, bigger is always better. Find out the three most important elements of larger than life designs.


Size Matters
Let’s face it, it’s hard to turn heads with tiny centerpieces. But, skyscraping arrangements have no problem attracting attention. Whether it’s a huge ball of roses in an oversized mercury glass or orchids hanging dramatically from a tiered tower, the sheer size of an arrangement is probably the easiest way of creating a grand mood for your wedding. 

Eye Catching Color
Second only to size is color, with its ability to instantly draw eyes. Bright colors create the most pomp, but more subtle colors can be just as appealing when used well. Adding details filled with glitz and glamour, like jewels and feathers, can enhance a more neutral color palette. Remember to combine contrasting colors for an even more striking look. Even something as seemingly simple as black and white can create a big presence because of the high contrast. 

Unique Shapes
Once your arrangements have caught your guests’ attention, keep their eyes lingering on the designs for a moment longer. Unique shapes – like carnations that form a large box or manzanita branches jutting out from a cluster of hydrangeas – make people take a second look. And you should want your guests to enjoy the breathtaking creations – after all, this may be your one chance to feel like royalty, but your guests should feel that way too. It will ensure your big day will be one everyone will remember. 

Do You Need A Floral Designer? 
Are you still debating the need for a floral designer? Read below to see why you might want to consider hiring a designer.

•    They’re professionals – No matter how many books you read on DIY floral design, it’s really no substitute for years of professional experience. Floral designers know what flowers will be in season on your wedding date, they know which will hold up best in the heat or in the cold, they know the latest color palettes and design trends, and most importantly, they can design in an artistic manner that is hard to achieve as an amateur. 

•    They’re relievers of stress – Do you really want to worry about crafting bouquets for all six of your bridesmaids, not to mention all those little boutonnieres? And those sky-scraping, architectural centerpieces you had imagined? They don’t seem like such a piece of cake when you’re trying to entertain your out-of-town guests. Hiring a floral designer allows you to entertain, have some fun, and even relax a little. 

    They’re stage-setters – A good floral designer will have everything set up before your guests even arrive. This is something that’s hard to do on your own. Usually, designers have an experienced team that helps set everything up. You could attempt to recruit your own team, but who knows how many friends and family members will be able to help you set up? And, do you really want to put that burden on the people closest to you? Your wedding should be a day everyone – including yourself – can enjoy.

bride and bloom –
