Auckland Derby Day

The Westpac Marquee at the Auckland Derby was decorated with cream flowers - posies in hat boxes, large flower chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and our black rafia girls wearing floral hats.

Wedding at Kellehers

Tall glass vases with large bunches of Delphinium and Gladioli spraying out the top. You wont se in it in these photo's but as and extra little detail, there were giant mock diamond in the bottom of each of the vases.

Wedding at Pontoon

The couple were down here from England to get married and were quite keen to have something different to the usual white wedding flowers. The flowers had a very tropical theme and were quite fun - we used red pineapple, red singapore orchids, a variety of interesting tropical leaves and woven flax flowers.

Porsche Polo day at Clevedon

It was an early start for us out at the Clevedon Polo field, and what a beautiful day it was!
The theme for the day was black read and white, we had gorgeous bowls of Hippiastrum and planters full of Gladioli. The main feature in the marquee being the large urn overflowing with white gladioli and black sticks.

Sweet Louise Function in the Dome

This was our first function up in the dome at Auckland War Memorial Museum.

Gerberas hung at the windows on the outer edge, drew your eyes to the amazing 360 degree view of Auckland City.

The Gerbera chandelier suspended above the dance floor, meant standing for hours hanging flowers upside-down, but the end result was well worth the aching arms.

The Ellerslie Flower Show

The sumery fresh, and sweetly pretty Langham Hotel cocktail marquee.

The umbrellas did give a a smallbit of grief but once we had worked out a system for hanging them, everything fell into place nicely.

With the giant cocktail glases being filled with juicy ripe strawberries and the fragrant summer posies placed ontop, the marquee smelt like heaven.

Extravagance

An amazing dinner party.
The Versace dinnerware wonderfully complimented by the bold and velvety 'Black magic' red roses.
