Busy Fall!!!

 Has it seriously been 2 months since my last blog post?!  Yikes!  Well, I haven't been slacking off, I was knee deep in flowers!!  A Fresh Flower had an incredibly busy fall and we are beyond grateful for that!  Between IU events and beautiful fall weddings, we kept ourselves pretty darn busy!!

I won't bore you with the details of my schedule!  I will just show you some pretty pictures from an IU event I did back in September. (WOW!  It's almost November??!!  How did that happen?)  I LOVE the events at IU and especially the events I do with the IU foundation.  What a great group of people to work with!!  They make my already amazing job even better!

Indiana University Distinguished Alumni Banquet

Recently I was asked to create arrangements for an awards banquet.  The request was for an elegant arrangement in white flowers that was not too large.  I decided to use a glass cube vase with hydrangeas, stock, roses and spray roses and a variety of greenery.  I really like the way white flowers pop on the deep wine colored table linens.  I kept things pretty simple as the table tends to get pretty crowded with plates, glasses and various other dinner items.

I also created an arrangement for the podium using the same flowers along with larkspur, snap dragons and stattice.  The hydrangeas were really full and lush and the roses opened just as I delivered them!  Perfect timing!!
