We were so excited when these beautiful earrings arrived! Each piece is cast directly from the plant, which makes each one special. They would make wonderful gifts (but we wouldn't blame you if you bought them for yourself!)

A Succulent Wedding at Verde!

Recently we had the exciting task of creating the personal flowers for one of our creative brides out of succulents and seasonal white blooms. From start to finish, the process was a ton of fun and the results were truly unique. Check it out!

When using these fantastic plants we had to wrap the roots in floral tape to help create our own stems for the bouquet. A real perk in using live elements in your wedding flowers is that you can unwrap the roots and replant the succulents after the event. Such a fun way to remember such a special day!

Colors of India

Orange and purple flowers create the perfect additions to an Indian themed event. Papaya Roses, Burnt Orange Dahlias and Aubergine Lisianthus make up the centerpieces and accent arrangements for this fun wedding.

A bridal bouquet made up of roses is a gorgeous and simple way to showcase this classically beautiful flower. Wrapping the stems in a royal purple satin ribbon help to tie in the color theme of the event.
