Choose hardy blooms in bulk, then add a few statement stems for drama. Aim for a focal, filler, and greenery ratio. Condition stems overnight, use chicken wire instead of foam, and keep water clean. Subscribe for a weekly market shopping list.

Prep and Mechanics

Clean vases, line with chicken wire or a floral tape grid, and add fresh water with a drop of bleach. Pre-trim and hydrate stems, test heights, and stage tools in labeled bins. Comment READY when your toolkit is packed and organized.

Focal Blooms, Filler, and Flow

Place greenery to create shape, add two to three bold focal blooms, then weave in filler for softness. Rotate the arrangement while you work. Vary stem lengths and avoid symmetry traps. Which focal bloom will crown your design? Tell us below.

Finishing Touches and Shine

Wipe glass for fingerprints, tuck in a few airy sprigs, and check water clarity. Surround with candle trios and scatter petals or ribbon tails. Add a tiny personal token or name tag. Share your signature final flourish for instant recognition.

Dahlias, zinnias, herbs, and sliced citrus tucked into clear vessels glow like stained glass. Keep arrangements hydrated, shade candles during setup, and refresh water at cocktail hour. Comment SUMMER for our heat-proof transport and on-site maintenance checklist.

Logistics That Keep the Day Smooth

Batch prep small elements days ahead, label boxes by table, and hydrate flowers in a cool, dark room. Create a staging zone near an entrance. Print checklists and assign roles. What’s your build window? We’ll help you reverse-engineer the schedule.

Grandma’s Teacups, New Memories

One couple filled inherited teacups with tiny posies and lavender sprigs, then tied place cards to the handles. Guests wrote wishes on tags and clipped them to stems. Would you borrow heirlooms and return them infused with new meaning?

Maps, Lyrics, and Love Notes

We decoupaged cylinder vases with maps from a first road trip and tucked in lyric snippets from their song. Centerpieces became conversation starters, and guests found highlighted cities. Share which words or places you’d immortalize on your tables.

Interactive Centerpieces Guests Can Snack On

Bread baskets with olive oil, herb pots to pinch, and grapes around brass candlesticks created a convivial farm-supper vibe. Edible elements doubled as favors and kept budgets kind. Subscribe for our easy recipes and herb care guide after the event.
