Hasa Diga Eebowai

My boss at Brilliant Blooms, Allison, got us the hook-up, yo! We had the amazing pleasure to do the flower decor for The Book of Mormon VIP After Party, thus landing tickets to the show as well as entry into the After Party. The show was hilarious, my favorite part being the Spooky Mormon Hell Dream. Afterwards, at the After Party, we met the creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Needless to say my boyfriend said it was the "best night of his life."

Here are some pretty crappy pictures from the event. The light was orange, that's my excuse!

Succulent and rock wall



Behind the bar, including antlers

Bar decor; sticks, gold antlers, orange orchids, and red protea

VIP Reserved Lounge; succulents, red protea

Food Table; sticks, orange orchids, and red protea



Ding-dong! Hello!

Our departing gift, a frog.

And we also did a wedding... :D
Bride's Bouquet: Purple orchids, white orchids, dark purple hydrangea, purple calla lilies, sword fern, variegated pit

Guestbook Table: Dark purple and white hydrangea, variegated pit 

Alter pieces; dark purple and white hydrangea 

For an Indian Wedding, elephant made out of mums and carnations (awesome!)

And this ends my internship with Brilliant Blooms and beginning of my employment with them!
Yea!
