Saying Thank You With Flowers

Have you ever had someone do you a favor, and couldn't think of a way to thank them? Often times a simple way to say thank you is with flowers or plants. The type of arrangement or plant will be dependent up what the "thank you" is for.
For example, you recently stayed at a friends home for a few days to visit. For this, a vase floral arrangement would be appropriate. What you choose will depend upon a few things:
- How long you have known the friend
- How large their home is
- Their personal taste
If the friend has a small apartment, a cube arrangement or small vase will most likely be the best choice, as that will easily fit anywhere. You can always add flowers such as roses, orchids, hydrangea or other premium flowers to make it a more upscale piece. However, if the friend has a large house with a grand foyer entrance, then a large airy vase may be better suited to their taste. You could go with say, a wildflower feel featuring larkspur, roses, lilies, fancy greens and other delicate flowers.  It all depends on a variety of factors. If it's spring or summer, you could even sent a patio pot or hanging basket.
Another is example is sending a thank you a business that has helped you. Say, a doctor, lawyer, accountant, the bank. For this, something such as a dish garden or a low maintenance plant would be more appropriate. Most office professionals appreciate plants because they help to accent the office, as well as when properly matched, are low maintenance. 
If you're unsure, we are always happy to help guide you to the right choice to fit your budget and taste. Saying thank you can be done tastefully and with style when done with flowers and plants.

Bridal Wars 2015!

Today's post is all about Bridal Wars! We were there yesterday to have fun and give brides a chance to earn a free wedding bouquet. For those of you don't know, Bridal Wars is a unique event where brides compete to earn awesome prizes from all different wedding vendors. Events With Style presents the event, and It's hosted by Randy Fenoli, star of Say Yes To The Dress! The day was filled with fun. Randy made sure to spend time with every bride, and even brought along Chewy!

Our challenge was called "Get It Girl". It was a bouquet toss relay. Each ring had a point value, and the bride had 60 seconds to toss and retrieve the bouquet as many times as possible to earn points. The other members of her team had the job of cheering her on. Our grand prize was a free brides bouquet!
Before the brides set out to compete, Randy got them pumped up to win!


Brides came in all sorts of team costumes, each unique, and all awesome! Check out this team, complete with curlers and kerchiefs!
It was a great day for both brides and vendors. We can't wait for next year's Bridal Wars!

Outdoor wedding at the Mohawk River Country Club in Rexford

Dexter Davis Photography - Outdoor Wedding At Mohawk River Country Club

I think Dexter captured the sheer fun and joy that Joylyne and Yury were having on their wedding day.  I know I sure can't operate my fancy camera half as well.  It takes a pro to capture and frame the day as it goes so quickly by.  We were all blessed with great weather at the MRCC that day which was especially important for the outdoor ceremony.  We are always ready though with a back up plan and an arch to set up inside. Check out our website for all the rental items that we offer.
