We have designed a very organic look for Julie and Ari’s Sunday wedding and thought we would share it with you before the big day this weekend!

The bride LOVES moss so we decided to incorporate it in everything, she also loves green with a small pop of color.
Our work is usually created in clear glass vases, but not for this one, we had to bring more warmth and more of a natural feel to the designs. We chose to go with a more traditional clay pot which we will wrap in an accordeon leaf for a more organic look. Curly willow branches and lots of salal leaves will also join the party.

We can’t wait to see the final product, stay posted for the pictures!

Hockey theme Bar Mitzvah Part 2

Centerpiece for a Bar Mitzvah by Oxide Design Montreal Florists

Centerpiece for a Bar Mitzvah

Like we promised on wednesday, here is the second part of our hockey themed Bar Mitzvah!

It is often a dilemma, when talking centerpieces for a party, to chose between tall or low centerpieces. Some may love the impact a tall centerpiece will give to a room, while others are scarred it will block the view and prevent the two guests facing each other from making good conversation.

This situation actually applied to this project, as the boy’s mother prefered tall, and the father, low! The solution: to do half and half. It was important for the two centerpieces to stay in the same line, again using an arrangement of big monstera leaves and salal leaves inside a round low vase containing green apples and hockey pucks.

We love to mix and match height for events, it always looks so chic and dynamic!

Hockey theme Bar Mitzvah Part 1

Last weekend was a boy’s Bar Mitzvah who simply loves hockey! Our challenge was to incorporate that theme in our centerpieces, a hard task to keep elegant and not tacky look …

We used tall cylinder vases with an arrangement of monstera leaves, accordeon leaves and salal leaves on top. The inside of the vase was filled by a branch of curly willow, and at the bottom … hockey pucks and green apples! What a suttle, fun and modern way to give a hockey twist to a masculine floral arrangement.

To create a more dynamic design, we decided to play with heights and to do half the centerpieces tall and the rest low, stay tuned for our ’’Hockey Themed Bar Mitzvah Part 2’’ low centerpiece design!

Flower Arrangement in the Orange Tones

Had an arrangement in the orange tones to create last week, here is what we came up with:

We hadn’t used orange pincushion flowers in so long, so I was very excited to buy them for Gen to use! As for the orange mokara orchids, they are regulars at the atelier! We love working with them! Mix in some birch troncs with and without green moss, small monstera leaves, accordeon leaves and salal leaves and the recipe is done!

Another creation that was whipped up in no time and that looks stunning.
