Fabulous Florals: A Unique Approach to a Classic Trend


Contributor Post by Missy & Kristin of Sweetly Chic Events & Design

Fresh florals are a classic trend that have always added an aspect of elegance and beauty to any event, but classic doesn't have to mean boring! We've taken this timeless trend and added some unique and modern twists for an updated contemporary take on the traditional floral arrangement.  Here are a few tips and tricks to enhance your next party with some creative and charming new uses for those beautiful blooms!


Gone are the days of your basic floral centerpiece; today's era of lavish parties, for kids and adults alike, has spawned a whole new generation of creative party decor, and why should florals be any different!  We used some simple florals in bud vases to make a big statement in this custom Minnie Mouse centerpiece, to create a dramatic and eye catching focal point for an event table.


Florals don't need to be the main attraction, they can play a supporting role in enhancing the look of your decor.  We dreamed up these Minnie Mouse Silhouette inspired arrangements to extend our Minnie theme beyond your usual party decor and added them to tables throughout the event for a soft, fun and feminine touch.  These petite silhouettes keep the florals age appropriate while still remaining elegant.


Enhancing your basic bouquet doesn't need to be complex! By adding a simple detail to a wild flower arrangement, we completely changed the feel, really making the centerpiece pop.  We simply added a chalkboard inspired printable to this floral arrangement for a rustic bridal shower to add a personal touch to the table. This quick and easy solution serves as a charismatic talking piece and provides an added sense of whimsy.



Who says florals have to be in a vase? Florals can function as more than just a centerpiece!  We took our blooms and used them to create a unique chair tie to accentuate the rustic garden feel of our bridal shower by pairing a delicate spray of Baby's Breath with the natural charm of wood and burlap.  By extending the flowers from the table to the rest of the decor, it takes the event decor to another level!

Incorporating florals into your next event can take lackluster decor from boring to bold by using our quick and easy tips and tricks, ensuring your next party is a complete success!
