Sea Cider, Victoria BC, always providing such an incredible backdrop for the most stunning if events. We were thrilled to be apart of this incredible wedding full of love, stunning decor for Trend Decor and draping from Designer Wedding Rentals, planned by The Good Party and so lovingly full of all the prettiest blooms. The ceremony backdrop at this wedding is full and lush with multiple varieties of eucalyptus and white accent flowers such as white spray roses, wax flowers, and spirea. Lush greens stealing the show, garlands dripping over top hand crafted signage, simply LOVE.</div>

We love the trust they give us! Enough trust to refer us to their incredible clients!! Are we completely grateful? Absolutely YES. Last year, I had the pleasure of adding Rad Occasions to the list of event planners that continually support us and we had an absolute blast working with Radhika and her awesome team. Radhika, owner of Rad Occasions located in Victoria BC, is incredibly sweet and incredibly kind, beyond descriptive words. So let me introduce you to Rad, her team and find out what makes them tick, view some previous events gorgeously planned, find out why we love working alongside her team AND why they landed a very notable Finalist position at the Vancouver Island Wedding Awards. Way to go!<br />

"We will have been in business for 5 years as of April 22 this year! A little off topic, but with this milestone coming up we will be launching a new website and podcast, which I’m excited/nervous for. I chose to become certified with the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada after planning my first wedding and after assisting for a couple of seasons with another local wedding company. What really drew me to planning weddings were all the small, beautiful details and how all the moving parts fit together to create one big (or small) event full of so much meaning and connection.

"We have had the opportunity to work with so many wonderful people from all over the world and along with that many different personalities. Ideally we are drawn to working with people who are looking to bring all of those that they love together with a meaningful celebration to celebrate their connection. These clients are usually looking for someone to assist with guiding them through the process but they still want to be hands on through out the planning. This is so helpful as we can help stay true to their personalities and rituals while planning and coordinating a rad day that they will love for years to come."</div>

<b>4. Why should couples planning a wedding hire you?</b></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">

<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
Sometimes I make quips about how we are the ‘insurance policy’ for the wedding day - meaning that we are there to ensure that if anything does go wrong or run late the problem is solved while keeping it on the down low. In all seriousness though, we take a lot of stress off of the couple and their loved ones and do it with a smile on our faces. </div>
<br />
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
I also stress education and learning in many forms for myself and the team. For example, all of our lead planners are certified by the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada and we are always going to conferences and workshops to learn new skills or fine tune interests. If you aren’t learning, you aren’t growing!</div>

<b>5. If there's one piece of advice to your prospective clientele to give, what would that be? </b></div>

<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
1) if your budget allows for it hire a wedding planner, even if for month of coordination. If you can have someone along with you during the planning process it saves so much time in obtaining quotes etc plus if you need to take a time out your planner will keep working in the background. If you can’t justify the cost of a full or even partial planner then definitely hire a month of coordinator - it takes so much responsibility off of your family and friends plus your vendors will love you for it! </div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
2) remember that it is your wedding day and your chance to honour your identity as individuals and families coming together to celebrate a beautiful coupling. Make it as traditional or untraditional as you want it to be and don’t be afraid to incorporate elements that celebrate your couple-ness. "</div>

"It is a little different every time but generally we like to take cues from how the couple’s home is decorated, their personal style, and a Pinterest board or a saved Instagram collection. From there we create a mood board complete with colour palette, design of each element of the wedding day, and a list of vendors that can provide the items. Once I’m completely satisfied with my design it is presented to the couple and we work together to tweak the design until it is just right. Then it’s all about connecting with vendors and securing them to bring the vision to life on the wedding day. "</div>

It's been incredible watching Rad Occasions grow into a leading event planning company here in Victoria, BC.

<b>Pampas grass! </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
From ceremony decor to centrepieces to bridal bouquets, we are seeing pampas grass EVERYWHERE! Even in the tiniest details like boutonnieres and corsages. Pampas grass is a great choice especially creating a boho look. Thick lush and just the right neutral tone to make a huge impact in any display. Looking for something with a little more colour? We have also been dying our pampas grass in all sorts, think blush tones, bleached in white, burgandy and if you've brave enough, deep blues, oranges as yellows. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Let's talk pricing: Pampas grass ranges from $12 to $24CAD a stem depending on time of year and where it's shipped from. Note: we are located on Vancouver Island, in Victoria, BC - and pricing may vary depending on your location :) </div>

A few years ago, trending was wild greens, especially eucalyptus bursting out of bridal and maids bouquets, however that trend has weeded itself out over the years and we are now seeing fuller displays of flowers, using primarily focal flowers to construct the bouquets. Assymetrical shaped bouquets continue to be strong in 2020.</div>

Garden roses, truly speak for themselves. With their romantic furling petals, incredible scents and a huge range of colours, there is no wonder they are highly requested. We also use them in replace of peony when clients are getting married out of peony season. We love them, you love them and we are thankful for our world wide growers who are continually improving their vase life, their colour options, size, shapes and colours. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Pricing for garden roses vary from $9.50 to $15CAD a stem - depending on variety and availability </div>

My most favourite florist technique recently has been reflexing roses, and ALL of them - or as many as I can!!! It's a little hidden secret event florists LOVE to use. We caress open and flip the rose petals starting from the exterior and working inwards towards the centre. Not only does it double the display, it also makes your roses POP with romance on a whole new level. Although this technique can be a wee bit time consuming, especially doing 100's of stems at a time, it's absolutely worth it all. </div>

I was so lucky when Stacey walked into my life. She has been Platinum's rock this year and when I tasked her with not only learning the ropes of event floral design, but taking a full step ahead into SO many more aspects of the business, she really took the lead. She's our DIY queen, creating up our awesome boutonniere tags, behind the scenes photography, gardener, flower presser, and well, she produced our Holiday tea Blends. Stacey is also a part time student studying herbal medicine and is a herbal therapist in training. I knew I wanted our client gifts to be uber cute and meaningful this year and asked Stacey what she could create for our incredible tribes. Stacey gave it a thought and came up with our custom blended tea! She produced a herbal tea that truly reflects Platinum Floral Designs, it's a little flowery, sweet, delicious, organic, made with biodegradable bags and of course has super healing medicinal properties.</div>

Centrepieces featured the same lovely colour palette as the ceremony, buckling with rose beauty galore - it truly was all about the rose in this wedding. Trend Decor fused the traditional blue and white ceramic vases to pay homage to the traditions within the family and we absolutely LOVED filling them with a stunning, luxe display of primarily roses, in custom colours such as burnt oranges, blush, peaches and deep reds, however items such as blue tweedia, agonies greens and burgundy ranunculus were also highlighted in the design. I would say, these beauties where a perfect fit marrying both traditional values and modern takes.</div>

Michele and Bryan's wedding was a beautiful blend of elegance and rich colours with family traditions incorporated throughout and it was simply stunning with ALL the right details in all the right locations. This wedding also won us, BEST WEDDING FLORALS via Vancouver Island Wedding Awards, 2018 and took finalist positions for BC Wedding Awards - Best Wedding Florals - and we were absolutely thrilled (thank you Rivkah Photography for providing the most stunning photos of our work!). There's so many photographs and so many details, we have broken this wedding down into 2 parts. Enjoy part 1.</div>

Florals featured rich and bold colours such as red and toffee roses, calla lilies, ranunculus, and lush, cascading greens. Texture and muted tones were added using various types of eucalyptus and italian ruscus. The large arrangements on the mantle provided a stunning backdrop and really enhanced the ceremony location held at The Fairmont Empress, Victoria BC. We were simply thrilled with all the product that arrived for this wedding, everything performed incredible well. We are always awe-struck at what nature provides. Thankful for our nature candy and uber thankful for the talented flower farmers that work relentlessly year round to provide the most delish product!</div>

These lovely ladies' bouquets are filled with eucalyptus, anemones, locally grown dahlia (right here on our island) stock flowers, garden roses, cosmos, hanging jasmine vine and succulents from our personal cutting garden, also white hypericum berries. Janelle requested a modern cascade bouquet to hold, while her lovely maids held hand- tieds. I am also absolutely LOVING the soft hues of these maids gowns, simply perfection! </div>

I love the landscape our island provides. From oceanside splendour, to wild forests, to an almost Palm Springs vibe from areas with desert feels. This couple had it all! <br />

Where do we start? This wonderful couple had an amazing vision for their wedding and pulled out all the stops for a stunning and unforgettable day located on Galiano Island, Bodega Ridge, BC, Canada! This incredible day caught the eye of many others and won Best Canadian West Wedding at the 2018 Wedding Bells Awards, and took home a finalist position via Vancouver Island Weddings Awards - Best Bridal Bouquet 2018. Our team traveled to Galiano the day prior to set up our 'traveling floral studio', slowly taking over one of our Airbnb rentals, bringing all our gear and our best game faces on to provide this couple with one memorable day. What a blast!</div>

The bridal bouquet has so many amazing elements in it including: alabaster garden roses, juliet garden roses, blue delphinium, lisianthus, spray roses, scabiosa, sweet peas, spray roses, and eucalyptus. We were lucky enough to get our hands on locally grown items right here on Vancouver Island. </div>

Wild smilax, eucalyptus and other locally foraged greens form the base of this stunning ceremony arch perched on top of Bodega Ridges ceremony location with a most stunning view of the ocean and surrounding islands. Truly a west coast vibe.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Flowers include blue delphinium, spray roses, and juliet garden roses. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The special feature of this arch are the small white spray roses throughout adding that fantastic texture. They are a special spray rose grown locally on the island by Lorna at Ninebark Farm. They only bloom a couple weeks of the year, so timing was just all too perfect to use them in this arch. We love sourcing locally when possible and supporting small businesses in our community. Truly making our displays just that much more amazing.</div>

This intimate outdoor wedding in Victoria, BC, Canada was driven with a true west coast style with the ceremony on the beach and reception at the Beach House in Cordova Bay and we absolutely LOVED the look. Luke Liable Photography works his magic again and captures such a beautiful day.<br />

These bouquets included anemone, dahlias, lisianthis, veronica, hypericum, spray roses, hydrangea, queen anne's lace, eucalyptus, and dusty miller to complete this soft, classic white and green palette.<br />

The long table reception at Beach House was simple and elegant with the head table hosting natural eucalyptus garland. The naked cake was a classic beauty consisting of dahlia, white hypericum berry and touches of the eucalyptus.<br />

There's something classically beautiful about rounded, compact bouquets filled with soft whites, blushes and cremes, and this wedding at Villa Eyrie Resort with Details, BC, was nothing but timeless beauty. The bouquets were filled with hydrangea, blush garden roses, peony and stunning phalaenopsis orchid to top off the luxe vibes. <br />

Let's just pause for a moment and take in this breathtaking view! Villa Eyrie is situated on the Malahat high on a mountain, almost as if its floating above the clouds. It's so stunning, I am thrilled everytime we are booked out to work this venue and excited for this years projects up there returning with Details, BC. It truly makes our job just that more amazing! </div>

Moving into the reception, Nicole, owner of Details, BC requested varying height centerpieces which bounced the viewers eye around the table and added just that more depth and visual interest to the space. The tent was kept quite airy and simplistic and suited the clean, modern vibes perfectly. The flowers consisted of white hydrangea, blush garden roses, white peony, white ranunculus and hanging amaranthus. Have a look!</div>

Well, this is a little late, but I guess they say 'better late then never'. I had massive issues with our blogging platform for months, leaving me without the ability to get inside our platform and blog. It was to the point, I figured, we would have to loose it and start fresh. But enough about tech issues, let's jump right into another one of our Event Planning Vendor Spotlight features, this time around, happy to re-introduce you to, The Good Party, formerly Emma McCormick Creative. I met Emma about 5ish years ago when I reached out to her on IG regarding a wedding we had both worked on and I had to know who she was. We met for coffee and discussed the possibility of teaming up to offer her coined 'crafternoon' workshop series, which turned out to be a great success. Our first crafternoon session was teaching our students how to pot up a succulent, care tips and of course each student painted their pot to suit their style. She's come along way since our first crafternoon and she's now Victoria's, I would say, most vibrant event planning company, always pushing the limitations, growing from solo business owner to numerous lady bosses surrounding her, getting creative and opening up a box of unique ideas around every turn. So let's see what makes this team tick, and have a little glimpse into some of their previous works.</div>

I will have been in business for 4 years in February of 2019. I launched my company under my own name, Emma McCormick Creative, but we've recently rebranded as The Good Party. When I first started the company it was just a one-[wo]man show but now I have an amazing team of ten working alongside me!</div>

The Good Party is unique on Vancouver Island because we are truly an event planning and creative design firm.

We are known for our amazing weddings but we also offer creative consulting for businesses, creative projects like window installations and displays, as well as event planning and production for individuals and companies who truly want to host a good party!</div>

<b>4. Why should couples planning a wedding hire you?</b></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.333333015441895px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.333333015441895px;">Simply put, we really take the stress out of wedding planning and event production. We love to create events that are unique and </span><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">customized for our clients and even when we are doing an event in a venue we've worked in before we are always pushing ourselves to do something that hasn't been done before. We love surprising our clients with special touches that they recognize as being there just for them! On wedding day we are on site from the start to the end and we take care of all the details so our clients can truly just relax and enjoy their party!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.333333015441895px;">
<b>5. If there's one piece of advice to your prospective clientele to give, what would that be? </b></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.333333015441895px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Hire a wedding planner! Sometimes, one half of the couple is unsure about making an investment in planning services, and we ask would you build your dream house without a general contractor to oversee everything? Probably not - so, why do that for a wedding? With so many moving parts having a planner to walk you through the process is definitely worthwhile. At the very least, I'd suggest hiring a month of coordinator to be on site on the day itself to oversee your vision and ensure the days runs as smoothly as possible. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">I love that our team's work doesn't fit within a particular design style. We do elegant weddings, rustic weddings, black tie weddings, and backyard weddings. While we absolutely love the opportunity to build out venues from scratch (ie. a field, a backyard, a mountain top!) we also love working in traditional settings like hotels and Vancouver Island's amazing event venues like Hatley Castle, Bilston Creek Farm, and Fort Common (to name a few!). </span></div>

As per usual, I am super behind in the blogging department. Oodles of images sitting in files on the computer, but I am trying :) I was reminded of this stunning wedding we participated in at Bodega Ridge on Galiano Island, BC. One of my favourite Gulf Island wedding venues! Bodega offers tranquility, a beautiful rustic setting with an outstanding ocean view for your ceremony, and the sweetest of staff members making our job so much easier! Love Bodega! </div>

To create this outstanding bouquet, we foraged local items such as pussy willow, rose hips and unique foliage located on Gailano Island. Using early spring blooms such as ranunculus, snap dragons, silver brunia, blue tweedia, and quicksand roses completed the look. We loved creating this romantic, lush bouquet. </div>

Onto another week highlighting Victoria's amazing vendors we can absolutely stand behind. Introducing you to owner and operator, Nicole of <a href="http://www.detailsbc.com/">Details, BC</a>. Details has been in business for many, many years, but changed hands a few years back, Nicole became the proud new owner. She's done alot of changes since her overtaking AND I SIMPLY LOVE HER. Her company specializes in event planning, event design and decor. I love working with this gal, not only is she delightful to be around, she's incredibly professional, down to earth and a darn hard worker. Bursting open doors for clients with an incredible creative eye. We've worked on numerous weddings and corporate events together, some of which were awarding winning, and featured in print publications! I am always thrilled when I see an email from Nicole in my inbox! It means something exciting is coming my way. She's also recently launched "The Detailed Planner" sharing her skill sets with students who are interested in becoming a planner themselves!" Truly a wealth of information. So let's find out more about Nicole, her passions and why working with her is something you should consider. </div>

Continuing with our wedding vendor spotlights, featuring local, savvy, and uber talented wedding event planners, we've got the amazingly talented Marika from <a href="http://www.rockpapersquare.com/">Rock Paper Square</a> today! Before I met Marika, I was actually a bit intimidated to meet her. Her social media pages were SO incredible, so modern and always had a super rad twist! I thought she was going to be this intense power house, city girl through and through and initially thought my 'country demeanor' wouldn't be a match, but boy was I wrong! Yes, she's an absolute power house, but the kindest breed around. I met Marika a couple years back on a cold, wintery, vendor event downtown. Most vendors didn't stray away from home that evening, so we were left with each other, hanging out and gabbing, talking all things weddings and getting to know each other. By the end of our conversations, she had me hooked on her. Such a kind hearted individual I eagerly wanted to work with. Since then, we've had the opportunity to work together on a few wicked designs and I can't wait for future adventures together. Her creative eye is truly outside the box, she's talented beyond belief, and well she makes up the perfect event planner. So let's get to know Marika and view some of her favourite projects!</div>

1. How long have you been in business and why did you choose to be an event planner?</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-size: 13.3333px; line-height: 20px;">"I started my business in 2014 shortly after I moved to Victoria. My background is in Interior Design and up until I relocated from Calgary I was working at architectural firms doing the 8-5 dance. With design experience specializing in healthcare and corporate interiors I struggled to find my perfect fit in Victoria. I took the opportunity to search for something new that would engage me both professionally and creatively. I've always been interested in event planning and therefore explored the industry in Victoria. I reached out to a local wedding planner who took me under her wing for two seasons. That planner (Barb Walker at French Kiss Events) is one of the biggest supporters of my business and I feel truly fortunate. I wasn't sure how I'd enjoy the world of events but honestly as I jump into my fifth wedding season I wouldn't change a thing!"</span></span></div>

I've even had a couple walk up the aisle together for their ceremony, it was magical and very empowering! I help focus my couples into elements that are unique to the two of them and I promise those details will make the most unique experience for your guests."</span></span></div>

Whether that be with a pinterest board or flipping through images over a cup of coffee (or wine).

I also love exploring design with colour and will continue to nudge my clients into the magical world of colour!"</span></div>

It's another wedding planning vendor feature today on this fine Monday morning. I would like to introduce you to Melissa, owner of <a href="http://www.ecochicaffiars.com/">Eco Chic Affairs</a> located here in beautiful Victoria, BC Canada. I've known Melissa for about four years now, meeting first at Parkside hotel as her role/ job title was event coordinator. She's since opened her very own event planning company here but with a really unique twist on event planning. Her core values speak loudly and I admire her take on planning and absolutely adore working with her! She's always giving me quite a challenge with floral design (a good challenge of course!). Melissa prides herself on creating eco friendly events that correlate with the environment, meaning she hopes everything "be sourced locally avoiding the shipping processes and helping our Earth stay clean". I also love that she supports our local wedding event industry working closely with so many local suppliers. So without further ado, let's discover a little more about her company and view some of her favourite work.</div>

Working in different venues in this role showed me how much I love this industry...so much so that I became a certified Wedding Planner through the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada as well as a certified Event Manager through Vancouver Island University. Most importantly it inspired me to start Eco Chic Affairs which I have been running since late October 2016."</i></span></div>

<i>"Having a planner goes beyond having someone along for the ride to assist with planning the wedding. I offer couples support, guidance and sustainable tips during a busy and often stressful time. Planning a wedding can be difficult, time consuming and costly. I help to alleviate the stress of planning while providing professional advice, tips, and tricks to make the day as seamless as possible. I am a great resource and make it fun for the couple. I have been everything from the voice of reason when needed, to the go between when all the family members suddenly have an opinion...basically a planner has your back for everything!"</i></div>

Just like that, a new year is born! 2018 was an amazing year to reflect upon. Our floral designs and installations were so incredible, so unique and challenged Platinum Floral Designs in more then one amazing way. From hanging ceilings treatments to fresh wall designs, we curated mechanics that had to function in completely different ways. Our journey brought us new relationships, threw us some pretty amazing awards (which I will talk about in a later post), features on national and international wedding blogs, and of course provided us with a highly successful wedding season which I am just so proud of and absolutely grateful. To ring in the New Year, we're featuring some of the most incredible people we are honoured to work with, all local, small business owners right here on Vancouver Island. To get us started, we'll be focusing on some of the leading Event Planning Companies. <br />
<br />
Working within the wedding industry for over a decade, there are aspects of a wedding I love to look for. One of my first questions asked, is if they are working with an Event Planner! Planners are absolutely vital in SO many ways and often times, makes my job run just that much more smoother. So without further delay, let me introduce you to<a href="http://www.designerweddingsvictoria.com/"> </a><a href="http://www.designerweddingsvictoria.com/"><b>Designer Weddings I</b>nc</a>. I first met Linda (owner and lead designer) when Platinum Floral Designs was just born. Linda was the very first company I had worked with, and I am so thrilled with their growth throughout the years. She's such a sweet and talented lady who has been come to known for their stellar transformation of ball rooms through the use of draping and lighting! Can't recommend this company enough. Recently, they completed the event planning courses and now offer planning services. Without any further delay, let's introduce you to Designer Wedding Rentals with our top 8 questions and a few of their favourite weddings/designs! <br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 13.33329963684082px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 13.33329963684082px;">" </span><span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 13.33329963684082px;">Designer Weddings has been in business 10 years! (Happy Birthday to us). We started just as a decor rental company but as time went on we found that brides needed more than just to rent decor. Melissa (business partner/daughter) and I decided the brides deserved the best so we took a Wedding Design course, Wedding Planning course, Destination Wedding Planning course and are currently working on our Master Design Course. We just love it! We can now provide anything a bride would like."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 13.33329963684082px;"><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 13.33329963684082px;">"We are a family run and family owned business. Our entire family works together including the grandchildren. It's because we love being together. Our company can do a lot of things that other decorators and planners don't know how to do. We have been trained as Event Decorators and are taking our Master Decorating course. We excel at draping, rooms or tents and have the equipment to do it properly. Our backdrops are stunning. We can produce any style from any glamour magazine. Mandaps and chuppa's are also our specialty. Because we carry all our own decor our brides have access to everything right up front as they are making their initial decisions and are able to see a mock up any time they want."</span><br />

HOWEVER..I would encourage my brides not to be a carbon copy of pinterest but to add their own unique flavour to their wedding. We work hard to please every bride and follow through on our promises and commitments."</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 13.33329963684082px;">"Great question. We want our weddings to be a perfect reflection of the bride and her style not our particular look. We have the skills and knowledge to create anything at all and a very large inventory which will accommodate any number of different looks. Even if a bride likes a particular look we still encourage her to find one little piece that she can call her own."</span><br />

Once you become engaged and have your venue chosen (we can even help you with that if you need) you should give us a call as soon as possible. EVEN if you are the DIY type it is best to talk your ideas over with a decorator to put you on the right track and save you a lot of time. Why should you spend time trying to source things when I probably have exactly what you are looking for right in my showroom. Having said that, if you happen to be a "last minute bride" we can easily accommodate that as well. We have a huge inventory so chances are we can supply anything you need."</span><br />

November! I never really know how I feel about the arrival of November. It's a time of reflection, opportunity, family time and rest. It's the month that our scheduling finally comes down from ninety miles a minute to maybe 50 which is a dramatic shift. I am a huge summer lover and November reminds me that I've missed summer and a bit of fall, but it's also a reminder of all the things I have achieved with Platinum Floral Designs and how amazing it all really is. This now marks the ending of our 11th wedding season and I am beyond, way beyond grateful for the life it's given to me and my children. Our 11th season was by far the most incredible, most challenging and the most gratifying season of all with so many amazing clients who truly allowed us to think outside the box and create weddings from westcoast to boho, to classic and absolutely unique! </div>

I've been doing a lot of re-evaluating lately. Trying to figure out how I would like the next 5 years of Platinum to evolve. Small business isn't easy and not for the light of heart. Theirs always a sense of "what's next?", how do I grow, am I being challenged enough, and how do I continually create EPIC weddings and events without it becoming mundane. There's SO much to think about sometimes it becomes a little overwhelming, however I am pretty excited to tell you what's on our list next. This past year we distinguished a pattern among some of our couples in the wedding planning madness. So we developed a little program called <a href="https://www.platinumfloraldesigns.com/la-a-carte">A La Carte</a> specifically catered to clients with a set budget and who want to simply tie the knot, to trust us with the designs and arrive all dressed, de-stressed and ready to say I DO ;)</div>

To all the women, couples that go bold, that go wild and let the colours unfold .... HELL YES! Although we love producing a timeless palette using blush, whites and cremes, being able to work with bolds make our hearts sing. And goodness me, my heart definitely sang on this one. The textures, the combos and the unique west coast vibe made this wedding shine in all its glory. Teaming up with <a href="http://www.bluelilyevents.com/">Blue Lily Event Planning</a> to literally pull it all together was a dream! <a href="http://birdseyecovefarm.com/">Birds Eye Cove Farm </a>provided the most stunning of country side venues this island has to offer. <a href="http://www.kimjayweddings.com/">Kim Jay Photography,</a> once again blew me off my feet with all these stunning flower candy photos. </div>

This wedding had an eclectic feel to it! Using modern furniture pieces from <a href="http://www.bashspecialty.com/">Bash Specialty</a> to create a cozy lounge, to the west coast vibe in the use of foliage, and of course a rustic vibe within the Birds Eye Cove Barn. When you do it right, it's magic. </div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> I had used an all white and green palette to achieve natural organic garden inspired arrangements which worked out AMAZING!! To achieve a natural garden look we added anemone, white spray roses, lisianthus, phlox, eucalyptus greens and of course some hypericum berries for texture to pull it all together. Perfect for the bridal party!</span></div>

I truly loved how dainty these ones turned out. </span></div>

I am such a sucker for unique and bold floral palettes. There is nothing more exciting when a client requests something 'bold' and 'different' for a wedding at Prestige Oceanfront Resort, Sooke BC! I had a blast putting together this colourful palette. Included in this stunner of a bridal bouquet were items personally grown from my cutting garden, included Icelandic poppies, succulents, sage and nine bark! Ordered items included artichoke, Juliet David Austin garden roses, hypericum berry, scabies, stock, thistle and spray roses! What a fantastic mix!</div>

I really am a sucker for all the right details and this wedding didn't disappoint. From ring shots to shoes and custom written napkins, Pebble and Pine captured details that are often lost in our minds over the years, so valuable to have images like above for all of time! I cannot stress to all you future brides-to-be, photography, and I mean professional photography is so important, put it up there on your HIGH priority list. </div>

The ceremony took place in the beautiful pavilion facing the inlet views. We prettied up Trend Decor's awesome wooden arch with 2 asymmetrical floral arrangements. Rosemary pew markers hung with an incredible fragrance as guests were invited to sit. </div>

Moving into the reception, The Lock and Key's amazing palette backdrop provided a perfect location to have a few wall hanging floral displays moved from the ceremony arch. Dual purposing pieces is quite stellar and cost effective if you're looking to save a few dollars. </div>

You may have heard word heard, wind in the air or maybe you've noticed our logos on our unique Studio Collective at Uptown Mall? I am so excited to announce our collective space at Uptown right beside David's Teas. The papers came off the windows and we are off the ground running. I am so excited to share this space with uber creatives within Victoria, BC. <a href="http://thestudiodesign.com/">The Studio Design & Marketing</a>, <a href="http://emmamccormick.com/">Emma McCormick Creative Planning & Production</a> and Platinum Floral Designs, joined forces to create a modern, bright and beautiful space to design, collaborate, work, and celebrate each other and our clients. I have been receiving so many questions regarding the space and here it is, let's clear the air. Platinum Floral Designs will have 3 unique uses out of the space. Of course our highly fun and creative <b>workshops</b> (a.k.a Crafternoons) with Emma will be a regular gig. And our holiday line up is just about to be released. Stay tuned, it's only a matter of days. Secondly, we will also be offering <b>Plant + Flower </b>Sales as well via our Friday and Saturday Pop-up shops every week, something we've never been able to do thus far and I am SO excited about it. We are going to carry only the most creative potted goods such as succulents, air plants, tropicals, healing plants, ferns and cactus. I am sure this inventory will grow as we too. Not to mention, we'll have unique pieces created by local makers! We couldn't launch a pop up space without a little flower power either. Soon, you'll be able to Shop us online via our website and place pre-orders for pick up. We will offer seasonal, lush hand tied floral bouquets ready to go into a vase all wrapped up in so much pretty! And lastly, we'll utilize this space to hold wedding and event <b>consultations</b> for all our amazing event clientele. </div>

Yay! You're planning your 2018 wedding! Typically by now you'll have your venue booked and your gown picked! Congratulations, a few items checked off that list of yours! Now, it's time to start looking into all things pretty including rented decor, and yes flowers! As we head into yet another amazing wedding season, I thought it's time to have a give away. We haven't had a giveaway for a while and we thought it's about time to do so. While you begin to plan your wedding florals for your most extraordinary day, you may have overlooked a small, but often mighty detail! The wrapping on your bridal bouquet (maids too) is a feature often not thought of as a detail worth spending much time on. Pinterest is oozing with ideas and one of the hottest trends in bridal bouquets, is beautiful trailing, hand died silk ribbons! SO, we thought what a great idea to add this beautiful, show stopping feature as a FREEBIE when you book with us when spending $3500.00 or more on your order. We'll ensure the ribbons match your theme and coordinate with your stunning gowns, floral palette and decor. </div>

If this image has any indication as to how this blog post is going to go, you've probably guessed it right. This uber fun, creative, 'Up' themed wedding was nothing short of unique, creative and truly one of a kind. If you've watched the Disney movie UP, you'll know exactly what this theme is all about! We worked with Emma McCormick Event Planning & Production who took this wedding from concept all the way to finalized details, and whooooo what a blast to be apart of this one. Laurel Point Inn provided a light, airy and incredible venue space to host this crafty wedding and Tegan McMartin Photography captured the day in such an incredible way. </div>

We created a simple floral hair clip for this stunning bride using soft peach tea roses and a touch of dusty miller. AND THAT GOWN purchased at Shades of White (swoon)! Just simply perfection. I love how the grooms attire also matched the colours in the wedding. Great job guys!<br />

This darling bride wanted a classic rounded bridal bouquet in colours I hadn't worked with for quite some time. Coral and peaches mixed amongst white dahlias, lisianthus, spray roses and scabiosa. We used dusty miller locally grown from the cutting garden to add just another layer of texture. </div>

Reception details! YAS, we love a wedding when NO detail is missed. Truly, it all comes together when ALL the elements are in place. Love the white charger plates and macaroons, the rose gold cutlery, the vintage suitcase, globe and the wicked around the world seating chart! Totally nailed!</div>

You may remember a few years ago we began our branded workshop series, a.k.a 'Crafternoons' with the most talented Emma McCormick of Emma McCormick Event Production & Planning and we couldn't be more thrilled when Mingle Magazine picked up our flower crown crafternoon in a published print spring edition, which included a four page spread highlighting the series. YAS! </div>

Of course, we couldn't have such an incredible spread without the talent of Element Photography at hand to snap beautiful images of the evenings affair. We keep our classes intimate, assuring each guest receives the highest standard of learning. It also promotes conversation among strangers and it's the most gratifying part to see, by the end of each crafternoon/workshop, our guests are all laughing together and walking away with new connections, and even life long friends. </div>

I love blogging up stellar corporate events! This one event threw some dreamy bucket list items I have always wanted to create right off the list. Emma McCormick Production & Planning and Leia of The Studio Design teamed together to produce the feel, design and flow of the evening, and truly it couldn't have went smoother. Platinum Floral Designs was contracted to produce installations that became truly the 'centrepiece' of Uptowns Fashion & Beauty event. Have a look!</div>

Emma McCormick transformed a massive 8,000 sq.feet of RAW space at Uptown into an evening of luxury. From showcasing local retailers, make-up artists and of course a grand fashion show featuring retailers at Uptown. Custom walls, lighting, great food, cocktails and lounges were all on display for an evening of fun for the 100 guests that were lucky enough to attend. </div>

KGoodphoto was there in such a unique way. Not only did she capture the entire evening, she set up a photo booth like none other. Her equipment was suspended from the roof and guests hopped into bed with unique quotes and pics were snapped from above. So awesome KGoodphoto.</div>
