Red Carnation Sphere

Here is a snapshot of a giant sphere of dark red carnations that was used on a placecard table. The bride brought us this candle holder and wanted to add red flowers to it for a big statement in the pre-function area for her reception. Over 100 carnations were used to make this tightly packed ball. It measured approximately 24" wide and 20" tall. We later added candles to the holder for the reception.

Flower Farm in Holland

You have got to see this! It's amazing to think that we get our flowers flown in from farms just like these!! Beats the heck out of the plain jane corn, bean and wheat fields we mostly see!!

We took a vote here at Sisters and it's unanimous--our next location will be Sisters Holland!! :)

Autumn Wedding, Gardens at Malmaisson-- Part 1

Sisters Flowers helped out with the very beautiful wedding of Melissa and Kevin earlier this month. Take a look at our snapshots of the ceremony and reception decor.



The outdoor ceremony was such a pretty preview of the coming autumn colors. We decorated the aisle and the arch in the fall wedding colors.

We added hanging votives to the back of the archway for a little added romantic touch.

Inside the tented reception, we made tall and short centerpieces in bright fall colors that popped right off of the dark blue linens.

Even the gates at the entrance were decorated to give the guests a little peek of autumn delight!!

Stay tuned for the professional shots of Melissa and Kevin's wedding!!!

We enjoy the potential that a new space brings and we look forward to servicing our clients in style and comfort!

Still the same Sisters in a new and improved space!

Decorations For Wedding Receptions

Your ideas for decorating need to be easy enough to put in place the day before the wedding or the morning of. However, if you don’t have enough decorations for the size of the location the look will seem unbalanced. This is important because if you over decorate then it will be hard for people to focus on it all. Make sure you have looked inside of the location so you know how much of the supplies you will need as well. You need to have a plan early on because you want to be able to purchase all of the supplies for that occasion. One of the many things you will need to decide when you plan a wedding reception is how you are going to decorate it.

You also have to be aware of the weather so it doesn’t ruin what you have put out there. Your thoughts for decorating indoors will likely be very different from those for an outdoor occasion. There should be some rules in place with the location where you are having your wedding reception so keep those in mind. Don’t forget that they will need to be cleaned up after wards as well.

You can also think about a theme that you would like to put into place. You can get the two colors that match the wedding and that will help to keep the look of it all consistent. Crepe paper is a very common item to use for decorating at a wedding reception. For example candles and candies can melt easily outdoors.
