Event Floral: Going Green in Many Ways for a St. Patrick's Day Event
Our team worked hard over the past weekend. Floral Design Artist Rebecca Motus reports.
While we were all feeling Irish this weekend our team was hard at work producing a St. Patrick's Day themed event.
Event Date: March 17, 2018
Event: a Closing Night Party
Event Location: Monarch Beach Resort, Monarch Beach, California.
The Challenge: the client wanted to use organic and eco-friendly materials. This requirement extended to all greenery.
Rebecca Motus: "We selected only plants that are California grown and water-wise and therefore eco-friendly.
We used Bells of Ireland, seeded eucalyptus, silver dollar eucalyptus, rosemary sprigs, Bupleurum, White ranunculus,, White Veronica, White Lisianthus, White Dahlias and Green Cymbidiums. The eucalyptus and rosemary took dual roles. Besides floral decor they acted as aromatherapy ingredients at the same time. Our team went to work in our floral studio to assemble it all.
We used a variation of mason jars for the centerpieces, cocktail tables and buffet tables.
I bought a variety of Irish beers in different sizes for the bar arrangements.
We made 4 Bar Arrangements (Florals in Irish beer bottles with fresh florals)
6 Buffet Arrangements
20 communal center pieces in mason jars
22 centerpieces for the round tables
and finally 10 cocktail table arrangements in small mason jars."
The client loved the result.
Rebecca chuckles: "Most wanted to know what happened to the content of the beer bottles."
