Flowers Availability for Week of April 12

Sometimes my fresh flower vendors let me know what flowers are winding down, or are just ramping up, for availability.  I thought I would pass this on, so that brides and other vendors know what's going out for the season, or coming in...this post can also help in following years.  Here we go:

~Dahlias are still limited in quanitites for many of the bright seasonal colors; however, burgundy tones are most readily available and looking great!

~The season for ranunculas are winding down...

~Local anemones are just about finished for the season...

~We are at the tip of the peony iceberg for gorgeous local peonies.  Production should be picking up and quanitities more plentiful as the weeks progress.

In addition, I see that the following are available:

- cherry branches
- field tulips
- green and black kangaroo paw (way, way cool!!!)
- sweet peas
- field daffodils
- lilac
- almond branches
- dogwood branches
- pussy willow, 10 - 14' tall
- lily of the valley (but very, very costly)

An Inspiration Board for Cassie in Coral / Sacramento Amador County Wedding Flowers Florist

Cassie is getting married in September in a lovely outdoor Amador County location. She is looking for simple and classic flowers with clean lines in coral and salmon tones. I think that her rose bouquet will be lovely and colorful, and she's chosen chic white carn tight streamlined maids' bouquets (minus the black wrapping in Martha's photo). Mono-color mounded centerpieces of seasonal flowers will be in brown metal rental urns. Prices are based on the Seasonal Flowers Collections. Cassie, this inspiration board is for you!

Streamlined Pink & Green / Sacramento Lake Tahoe Wedding Flowers Florist

I loved the look of these images that Victoria forwarded to me before we met for our consultation that I had to put them together into an Inspiration Board. I love the mono-floral and duo-floral, streamlined, organic look of them - the grass, the twigs, the rocks, the glass, the moss, the terra cotta, everything. I just wanted to share this great Pink & Green look with you - and this is a great example of how to show your florist the look that you are after. I see the colors, I see the style, and I can offer other suggestions too. This look will definitely fall into the Seasonal Flowers Collection...love your style, Victoria!

Update after the wedding: Victoria DID use those cute little escort carts on the lower left....they were cool!
