This one is for my youngest daughter and her handsome date. With her navy blue chiffon gown, I decided to design pale blue satin ribbon and Cha-Cha-La-La this wrist corsage to the enth degree. My daughter’s response, “Pretty!”. Another happy client! As this is for my youngest, this may be my last Prom hoorah! I will be sad to see it go.

WOWIE!!! That’s what I say about Shannon’s bouquet.  Bright, Bold and Yellow!  These mini callas take total command.  40 beautiful stems were used to create her bouquet.  I love mono floral design.  Simplicity and beauty all in the same bouquet.  Shannon gave me her Grandmother’s gold wedding band.  I gave Shannon several options on how I could attach the gold band to the stem wrap.  She chose this style.  The gold and the yellow compliment each other wonderfully.

The Maid Bouquets are a cute clutch of yellow tulips.  The stems were wrapped in pewter satin ribbon.  By ceremony time, I am sure that these tulips opened fully and were in all of their glory!

The reception at the Kemp Auto Museum reflected the maids bouquets.  There were submerged tulips in various size bubble bowls on all the tables.  A crystal tree was the highlight of the escort card table!  Shannon was a delight to work with!

Me:  PROM SEASON!!!

There is nothing that is more fun than prom season.  Those crazy kids with crazy ideas…..there’s nothing like them.  No holds bar!  I can do what I want and this time I had a challenge of thinking on the WILD SIDE.  A leopard print prom dress deserves a corsage of equal intensity.  I took spray roses and added black pin accents.  I hand made black satin ribbon roses and accented with gold, champagne and black chiffon ribbon!  WOOT!

Lauren has 6 maids in eggplant gowns. Her gown is Diamond white. For her bridal bouquet we chose ivory hydrangeas, Bluebird roses, mini green hydrangeas and white mini calla lilies with crystal accents. The maids will have the same bouquets minus the calla lilies which I kept unique to the bride. I will put eggplant crystals in the maids bouquets. This was a referral from a past client, Becky. Thanks Becky! :)
