Marriott Bridal Show – Images part 1

  These are images taken by Babcock Studio of the boutonnieres and succulents we displayed a few weeks ago at the Dayton Marriott Bridal Show.  Getting great photos taken of our work is important to us. We feel that it gives brides a sneak peek at current wedding and market trends.  These florals are our personal touch on today’s themes and “Pinterest” ideas.  Looking for more ideas, visit our Facebook page

Bouquets aren’t only for Brides

  This beautiful couple had an anniversary shoot with Nixon Photography. Actually, this is Michelle Nixon, of Nixon photography. They specialize in wedding photography, baby/newborns, senior portraits, and family portraits.  And of course, she is holding a bouquet made by Floral V Designs.   You don’t have to only have a bouquet for the day of your wedding.  Remember you have an engagement session and of course anniversary sessions.

Something White

  A beautiful bouquet of Vendela ivory Roses covered in white Gardenias.  This bouquet had the most amazing scent!  Can you imagine 17 gardenias?  It was quite sweet. The bridesmaids wore dusty lavender dresses, all with Ivory flowers.  What a beautiful wedding party! The beautiful Bride & Groom. Our bride Farida, is from the Dayton area but she is currently is Medical School in Chicago.  She met her photographer Andrew, of John Andrews Photography and realized he was the wedding photographer for her.  So he made the treck to Dayton, all 272 miles to shoot this amazing wedding!  And wow, was it worth it!  Check out more of his work at JohnAndrewsphotography.com

Rose of the week

 SWEETNESS “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” We are starting a “Rose of the week post.” Each rose is grown from its individual grower/farm somewhere in the world.  Roses are grown in California, Equador and many more countrys and states.  Each has its own unique name, style and smell. This rose, for instance is called “Sweetness.” It is conisdered a white-ish rose with a hot pink edge. The edge isnt consistant from one rose to the next, but I think that is what makes it unique. It isnt a large head rose; it has around 25 petals per stem. That is a standard size rose in the floral industry. It has a very sweet (no pun intended) smell, but its not overwhelming. This color is perfect for the bride that wants just a hint of her color in her bouquet, using the hot pink as an accent, of course

What does Your Dream Day Cafe look like?

This is the front reception lobby.  To the left is two tables with mock reception style decor and of course, fresh flowers from Floral V Designs 🙂  Also, we have a beautiful Kenneth Pool gown from Bridal and Formal in Cincinnati.  As well as a large TV always rolling with our most current wedding video. This is our second consultation room, set up for any vendor to use as a meeting point.  Dressed with Prime Time Party Rental linens and another one of Bridal and Formal’s beautiful dresses. Consultation room one is more of a lounge style meeting space.  With leather couches and chairs as well as a large screen TV available to watch our vendors most current DVD’s.  Also, another one of Bridal and Formals beautiful gowns. This is our “Pinterest” board, for vendors to pin what inspires them.  We love “pinning” but we also like to touch and feel, so we made this 🙂 This is our vendor resource area.  This is where brides can get all of the top vendors information in the Dayton and Cincinnati area. This is Bridal and Formals display, the dresses will be rotating every other week. The front lobby area will have cake samples each day from our participating bakeries….ymmm!
