I'm Ashley, and I am SO excited to have this new creative outlet and be able to share my ideas for the perfect inspired event with you!
It's about creating a feeling, not a theme.
I want to show you how to take the trends and fit them into a gorgeous event, not fit your event into an over-the-top theme. I hope you enjoy!
The first trend I've chosen to share with you is going to be big in fashion for the upcoming year: Plaid.
See? Pretty, huh?
Plaid is a strong and masculine pattern, so the trick is to stay soft and feminine with the colors and flowers.
Here are some bouquets that would be lovely with this look.

I love the mix of colors in this one, as well as the way the floral designer kept each type of bloom separate from the others. It provides a more modern twist on a collection of pretty traditional flowers like roses, spray roses, hydrangeas, dahlias, peonies, and dusty miller.

These are snowberries, and I just love them. They are a dramatic and cost-effective way to get that "wow" effect. People will remember this bouquet!
And what about for the boys?

So adorable!
This mix of snowberries and scabiosa pods is organic, beautiful, but still masculine.
Speaking of scabiosa pods...

I particularly love the way the pods create a stripe down the center of the bouquet. Just a little arranging technique that makes you think "Oh! Haven't seen that before!"
That's it for me this week.
What do you think? Inspired yet???
