Happy birthday, Rosie!
Yesterday, we celebrated our sweet Rosie’s birthday!! Rosie plays a pivotal role in the successes of our business. We are grateful for you everyday, Rosie, but especially on YOUR day. ❤️
Share some birthday love with our Rosie in the comments 🥳
Minnesota weather…. It’s a love-hate thing this time of year. As stressful as it can be to make “the call”, sometimes it can be beneficial to do it sooner than later. Why, you might ask? Take this couple, for a most recent instance… they hosted both their ceremony and reception at the beautiful @boldnorthcellars on a Friday, but made “the call” [to move it indoors] on Monday the week of. Our original proposal had both a ceremony arbor arrangement and mantle arrangement, but since the couple made “the call” earlier in the week {prior to the designers working their magic}, we were able to combine the ceremony arbor budget with the mantle arrangement budget to curate one stunning statement piece that first acted as a beautiful backdrop for their ceremony, and then for their head table.
.
What do you think? Would you still hold off on making “the call” or do it sooner to get one bigger statement piece??

New to the rental crew, and we’re in LOVE! 😍
She’s a 5D garden series flower wall measuring 8’ x 8’.
Perfect photo op backdrop for a wedding, baby shower, Quinceanera, birthday party, graduation… Pair it with a settee and maybe a neon sign, and voila 👌🏻

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! 👻

We love embracing the seasons around here, and this past weekend's couple did just that with a midieval/Halloween theme. Check out that moody bridal bouquet 😍, and the faux garlic with added florals for the flower girls [and to ward off evil spirits, of course].

THURSDAY THOUGHTS--> HOW TO MAKE FRESH ROSES LOOK BIGGER!
.
I have been in the hospitality / wedding & event industry for over [I'm aging myself here] 15 years; however, never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I'd own a wedding/event specialty company THAT DOES FLOWERS! 😳🤯. Needless to say, I am so thankful for the previous owners who have been my mentors, and for my sweet sidekick Rosie who is the director of all things floral at the shop. 💐
.
I have tasked myself with researching and learning a few floral things as we go so I can step in and help with the floral designing, too, rather than just explain my vision(s) to my fabulous designers. Whether it be by attending classes, watching our designers as they do their thing, or by scrolling the web [usually when I'm supposed to be sleeping... maybe that's why I love naps so much 🤔], I have picked up a few things along the way and want to share some fun/simple techniques I've learned with you, too! 😘
