Say it with Flowers
There are a few aspects of your wedding that your guests (read women) will be talking about for ages. Your dress, the rings, the service... and the flowers.
Nadine Brown is one of the most professional wedding service providers I have come across in creating this annual editon over some seven years.
Nadine has a wonderful presentation folder she sends to prospective clients at first contact. Apart from her beautiful printed material, it also contains a CD with a slideshow of her work. Very, very impressive. Ring Nadine for her promotional pack.
Better still go to her website www.nadinefloraldesign.com.au. Nadine has up-graded her web site to keep up with her very internet savvy clients (young brides). It includes an extensive 'quick load' gallery, a Facebook page where brides can become a fan, upload their photos and chat everything weddings. There is also access to 'flowertube', a 'YouTube' slideshow. Another addition is 'Bridal Lounge' for clients where they can access tips, special vouchers from other wedding suppliers and retrieve expo vouchers. There is a section to hire glassware and vases for the DIY bride and of course it is jammed packed with flower info: meanings, seasonal blooms and new ideas in floral accessories.
I asked Nadine for her forecasts for 2010.
The main bridal trend for 2010 is soft colours of silver/pink/creams/mint and pale mocha, with brides still loving David Austin roses (that we get straight from the grower) as they are rare and fragile. David Austins are one of the few outdoor grown roses so are very susceptible to weather conditions. Also popular and very special are the phalaenopsis orchids (also accessed locally from the growers) and pale pink and cream peony rose (not a rose though). Wild flowers are starting to be requested, they are durable, inexpensive and surprisingly soft and feminine (I love working with them) Flower jewellery has also been a popular accent as many girls have gorgeous dresses that include pearls and Swarovski crystals, they love the idea of the added touch of 'bling' to their bouquet. We hand make these beautiful additions in genuine Swarovski pearls and crystals, in any colour and style the bride requires. These pieces also make a lovely keepsake of the day.
Based on Nadines attitude to her business and the amazing array of photos in her slideshow, you can book her with confidence.
