Epic Expo, oneplanet Catering

May 30th, 2010 |

I hope some of you had the opportunity to visit the Epic Expo in the new Vancouver Convention Center over the weekend. The show focuses on green and sustainable living. I was able to stroll through the show and sampled a variety of different eco friendly goods,  wines and beers.

One of our dear clients, one planet Catering, featured their products at the show and we were able to provide some floral to help decorate their booth. They have a great vision for “green” catering and their lunch box(reusable) is great for help saving environment.  Check them out… http://www.oneplanetcatering.com

I have included a few pictures of the booth with some floral :)

Spring is in the air and we love working with white, green and yellow. The colours are refreshing and we have used yellow ranunculus in the bridal bouque to make it even more unique!

2010 Vancouver Auto Show

April 1st, 2010 |

We attended the Vancouver Auto Show this year and thought we share some pictures with you of our favourites :) There are lots to see and it’s great to sit in some of the cars.  Pretty cool!!!  Drop by if you have a chance to check them out.

We provided a floral arrangement for the Volvo booth this year. Modern and compact  purple tulip arrangement was a perfect choice for their corporate image.   Beliver or not, we used 20 bunches of tulips in this arrangment.
