I love this! (Matt did too... Idea for our future wedding?? lol)

A "Normal" Week in the World of a Floral Intern

Day 1 - This is processing day. All the flowers that we will be using the upcoming week get delivered all in one day, and at one time. This means for 6-8 hrs we are unpacking, counting, organizing, snipping, and hydrating.

Day 2 - 4 we create:

Wedding #1: Groomsmen boutonniere - Bells of Ireland and lily grass loop

Bridesmaid bouquet - Bells of Ireland, ivory roses, and purple stock (day of delivery we added purple and white sweet pea due to how fragile sweet peas are)

Bride's bouquet - Bells of Ireland, purple stock, ivory roses, and phlox (day of delivery we added white freesia)

Wedding #2: Groom's boutonniere - white calla lily, crespedia (billy ball) and green fiddle head

Groomsman #1 boutonniere to match Bridesmaid #1 bouquet - turquoise

Groomsman #2 boutonniere to match Bridesmaid #2 bouquet - green (poppy pod)

Groomsman #3 boutonniere to match Bridesmaid #3 bouquet - orange (protea bloom)

Not shown: lavender and pink (larkspur/dahlia)

Father's boutonniere - green fiddle head with billy balls

Ringbearer boutonniere - orange dahlias

Centerpiece

Wedding #3 Brides Bouquet - White peonies, white roses, billy balls, and dusty miller

Day 4 - "D" Day (D = Delivery)

This is inside the delivery van of only 1 out of 4 of the weddings we had this week.

What can I say? We make things PRETTY!

4 Weddings in 2 days? No Prob, Bob!

What a crazy week! We had three weddings on Saturday and one on Sunday this past weekend. The shop looked so pretty with all the flowers we had delivered!

I was granted permission to work primarily on my friends wedding that was one of our weddings on Saturday at The Chateaux at Fox Meadows in Broomfield. Here are some pictures:

Interesting fact; the groom/groomsman had on dark blue jeans, cowboy boots, and bolos!

Sorry I do not have any pictures of the 3rd/4th wedding, I wasnt really involved with those ones! :)

White Wedding with Lime Green Touches

I love the clean look of all white. Add a touch of color? Love it even more! I cannot wait to see the finished look of this wedding; but will have to wait until Allison gets her pictures back, because I am attending my very good friend's wedding, Rachel and her hubby Alex. (I also had the opportunity to create her bouquets and boutonniere's, the pictures didn't turn out, so once I get better quality ones I can share those too!)
