Welcome to the Occasional Flowers blog. I love arranging flowers, and after doing several weddings for family and friends, I decided to make my hobby a business.

Burnt Orange and Chocolate Brown



It is so much fun working with each bride and bringing her vision to life.  The colors for this wedding were champagne, chocolate brown, and burnt orange.

The groom wore a mango calla lily boutinierre accented with a single aranda orchid.  This fantastic bouquet is made of mango calla lilies, orange roses, alstromeria, red hypericum berries, and accented with birch brances and chocolate colored safari sunset leucodendron.

The groomsmen wore mango calla lily bouts.

The groom's bout. was accented with a single aranda orchid while his groomsmen wore simply elegant miniature mango calla lilies.
The bride's bouquet contained orange miniature mango calla liles, dark orange roses, orange aranda orchids, red hypericum berries, orange alstromeria, and the chocolate accents are birch branches and safari sunset leucodendron.

Between the bride and her maid of honor (her sister), they came up with the most awesome centerpieces.  Each one was a different vase, we used many different flowers, but all were submerged.
A swirl of tulips for this centerpiece, the maid of honor's favorite!

This vase is stuffed with submerged tulips.

Sunset asiatic lily blooms are submerged in this vase.  These lilies are gorgeous; each petal starts as a light orange and gets darker at the tips.  They were also used for other small arrangements at the reception.
These gorgeous blooms are aranda orchids, the same used for the parent's body flowers.
Submerged orange aranda orchids fill this tall cylinder vase.
One stem of orange gladiolus is submerged in this vase.
This vase has such a cool shape!  We swirled three stems of orange mango calla lilies inside for a classy centerpiece.
Two orange roses are staggered and submerged in this unique vase.

This vase was really fun and unusual.  We attached orange aranda orchid blooms to curly willow to make this vase of orange blossoming branches.
