A great way to reduce the cost of flowers at a party is to use day-old rose petals instead of fresh-cut roses. At a recent event at
Carrots,
the hostess filled oversized martini glasses with deep red rose petals. The petals were scattered on tables between candles and used as garnish in the
pomegranate martini.
I recently had a chance to sit down and talk to one of San Francisco's top floral designers, Laura Little of
Floramor Studios, about flowers, weddings, and upcoming trends. Laura has a rich passion for the beauty of nature and a grand respect for fine arts that is reflected in all of her arrangements. Established in 1984, Laura and her team have been working with brides non-stop for the past 22 years and have orchestrated the design concept for over 3000 events.
