Recently our Tailored Twig design team worked with Shelly and Robert to create impactful details for their intimate Oxford Exchange wedding. This incredible, historic Tampa wedding venue features sweeping wooden staircases, bold black and white checked floors, exposed brick and impactful artwork. Designing wedding décor for this very busy space requires finesse and intricate details to capture your attention.  We began with a color story that included subtle white details, touches of greenery and then antique pink and dusty rose to draw your eye. Our team began with Shelly’s hand tailored bridal bouquet. Her elegant, long sleeve wedding gown had very few embellishments and her bouquet was the perfect accessory. Seeded eucalyptus, pepper berry greens and rosemary created a cascading, textural backdrop for the quicksand and amnesia roses with their various shades of antique pink. Pink astible added softness and lighter tones along with anemone and white scabiosa. The dark centers in the anemone and the deep burgundy tones of the black scabiosa incorporated some boldness.   Robert’s boutonniere was a single bloom of Marianne Anemone. It’s size, bright white color and deep black center paired well with his classic tuxedo with black satin shawl collar. The ladies in the wedding party carried a smaller hand tied version of Shelly’s bouquet with the roses pairing with the pink in the bridesmaid’s dresses. The gentleman wore very masculine green thistle boutonnieres that balanced the dusty rose in their neckties and pocket square.  On the venue’s entry table was a gold metallic trumpet shaped vessel overflowed with green thistle and Italian ruscus dotted with the black and white anemone, pink roses and deep burgundy scabiosa. The vessel was the perfect size and coloring to break up the sight lines in the busy space filled with eclectic details.  Shelly and Robert’s wedding ceremony was set against the backdrop of the venue’s sunlit Atrium. Soft pink fabric draped in a crisscross pattern played off the bold floor, contemporary black chairs and exposed brick to draw your eye toward the couple as they exchanged their wedding vows.  Clusters of chunky cream-colored pillar candles were set into arrangements of green thistle and Italian ruscus. These groupings dotted the aisle adding texture and a pop of brightness against the black and white marble tile floors.  Incorporating the right focal points, and adding touches of color and texture to make a design pop were just the accents needed for a very visually stimulating event space.  Congratulations Shelly and Robert!
Thank you to the creative team of wedding professionals who made Shelly and Robert’s wedding day so special.

 Take two amazing people celebrating birthdays, a room filled with family and friends, fun and interactive entertainment, and you have all the makings for an awesome party. Our Tailored Twig design team had an awesome time working with an incredibly talented team to create this event. The Renaissance International Plaza Hotel in Tampa was the perfect location to create this fabulous birthday party. This event was every adult's dream, with a vintage VW Photo Bus, Space Invaders, Whack-A-Mole, Skee Ball, an outstanding band, fun food stations, gelato and coffee carts, and an internationally known comedian   Our Tailored Twig team set the stage, creating beautiful design elements in every corner of the ballroom. Over a dozen round and rectangular dining tables surrounded the stage and dancefloor. Each of these wooden dining tables had a unique tablescape that incorporated spectacular organic elements.   Driftwood, palm fronds, and antlers set the foundation for floral creations in shades of cream and green. Antique hydrangea, green dianthus, anthurium and viburnum berries mixed with ornamental white kale, creamy white roses, white star of Bethlehem and polar star roses. Fiddlehead fern shoots, feathers, vine spheres, and chunky candles added texture to the creations. The tables were layered with glass charger plates with gold beaded edges, gold-rimmed glasses and vintage amber glass goblets completed the elegant tablescapes.      Black wire cocktail tables with wooden tops were intermixed with overstuffed furniture to create lounge areas. Smaller arrangements, incorporating the same natural elements, were designed using textured concrete and gunmetal vessels and surrounded by shimmering votive candles. Accent pillows and faux fur throws added pops of color, texture, and warmth to the lounge areas.   And, a birthday is not a birthday without a cake. An amazing three-tiered cake anchored the entrance to the ballroom. This moss-colored "tree stump" cake with Debbie and John's names carved in it towered above the room. The display was a forest of vines, Spanish moss, textured greenery, and clusters of blooms found thought the room.   Guests dined, danced the night away, played games and were entertained by the amazing Jim Gaffigan.  Debbie and John's birthday will be a party no one will soon forget. Tailored Twig was glad we could be a part of an amazingly creative team.

This amazing, exclusive beach club is located on the white sand beaches of Lido Key, just three miles from the Ritz-Carlton Sarasota.  Our editorial photo shoot showcased a chic bohemian wedding reception overlooking the sunsets on Gulf of Mexico. The Ritz-Carlton’s private beach and expansive porch of Ridley’s Porch offered spectacular views. The luxurious sweetheart table was nestled in the white sand and rested on a textured natural fiber mat. The spectacular antique mirrored table and oversized gold trimmed arm chair sat under a crystal chandelier hanging from a canopy of texture, color and natural elements. The cantilever structure was combination of hard rustic elements such as driftwood paired with soft antique hydrangea, and brightly colored orange, blush and cream roses. Banksia foliage, green anthurium and ornamental cabbage added depth and texture to the creation. The table overflowed with chunky pillar candles, and collections of reflective metallic vessels with clusters of colorful blooms and textual elements.    The outdoor spaces of Ridley’s Porch, named for the Kemp’s Ridley sea turtle, one of the smallest and rarest sea turtles; continued the luxurious wedding design. Incredible hanging arrangements were suspended at either end of the porch, flanking three long antique mirrored tables and soft tufted benches. Above the center table floated a magnificent floral chandelier.   Our design team created a base of lush greenery accented with the zig zag textures of banksia foliage. The banksia blooms, long pointed veronica, anthurium and fiddle head ferns were incorporated into the softer textures of colorful roses and hydrangea. The mirrored tabletop reflected the stunning floral chandelier above and were dressed with antique gold rimmed charger plates, patterned napkins, gold flatware and vintage pressed glass. Some of the resorts signature craft cocktails completed the place settings and paired with the champagne and blush tones in the floral creations. The center of the tables were lined with footed garden vessels that continued the brightly colored and textural botanicals into the tablescape accented with chunky pillar candles and vintage glass votives.    Our incredible bohemian bride in a sheer shimmering wedding gown with light flowing overlay carried a one of a kind, hand tailored asymmetric bouquet. This spectacular design incorporated both large dome shaped banksia blooms and the long saw-toothed foliage along with curling fiddlehead ferns. Full lush orange roses and soft pink garden roses brought softness and color to the bouquet.   Tailored Twig loves being part of the creative process of luxurious styled editorial shoots and to work with incredible professionals.

Our Tailored Twig floral design team loved creating this amazing pink and gold color story for their wedding day. Renee chose an A-Line champagne organza wedding gown with a crystal embellished bodice. Her wedding bouquet was a spectacular color story of pink, with garden roses, peonies, and spray roses ranging in color from light pink and antique pink to brilliant hot pink with accents of snapdragons and ivy tails.  Two very special photo lockets were incorporated into the champagne satin ribbon, resting in Renee’s hands.  Michael wore a handsome navy blue suit accented with pink ranunculus, and white tennis shoes, a comfortable accessory.  An adorable flower girl wearing a floral crown of hot pink spray roses and blush wax flower tossed rose petals as she approached the beachfront wedding ceremony.  Renee and Michael exchanged their wedding vows in front of a stunning infinity arch wrapped with a garland of Italian ruscus and adorned with roses that continued the color story with shades of pink.    Blooms in shades of pink continued throughout the gentleman’s boutonnieres and the ladies bouquets which perfectly accented both the blue suits and champagne bridal party gow  The rustic wooden farm tables were layered with glass charger plates with gold beaded rims, white china with a wide shimmering gold band, gold flatware and gold rimmed stemware. A soft pink ribbon of fabric ran the length of the tables dotted with floating candles, geometric metallic vessels overflowing with pink roses, snapdragons and peonies.    A full, lush floral arrangement accented the bar, accessorizing an acrylic sign, sure to amuse wedding guests.  Two oversized wing back chairs in a soft rose color sat behind the couple’s sweetheart table, dressed with a cozy throw and shimmering gold Accent pillows. The wooden table with turned legs held vessels and botanicals found on the guest tables for a cohesive design.   The couple cut their single tier wedding cake topped with “Pretty in Pink” peonies, “Blushing Ombre” roses and hot pink ranunculus before their sparkling send off.   Congratulations Renee and Michael!  Thank you to all of the wedding professionals who made this day so special.

Following the wedding ceremony at Tampa’s Jesuit Chapel, the couple and their wedding guests made their way to the Oxford Exchange. It is the perfect gathering space in downtown Tampa for an evening of dinner and dancing. The couple took some time in the Oxford Exchange’s Book Store for some photos. An entry table was designed with a two-tiered cascading floral creation overflowing with blooms in burgundy, red and white, and was centered in the entry space along with pictures of the couple.   Kristina looked stunning in a light, flowing lace gown with cap sleeves. Her hand-tailored color-blocked bouquet of burgundy dahlias, chocolate cosmos, Marianne anemone, leucadendron crowns, Bells of Ireland and seeded eucalyptus added bursts of color and texture  Elements of her bridal bouquet carried through into her wedding party’s green monochromatic bouquets and the anemone and leucadendron found in Nathan’s elegant boutonniere.  Following some photographs, the couple made their way into the Atrium. A sweetheart table flanked one side of the room and two oversized wingback chairs sat behind the table draped with a blue velvet runner. The tablescape was adorned with clusters of mercury glass candle Goblets in varying sizes and styles as well as Krista’s bridal bouquet. The table was flanked by two tall golden trumpet vases with asymmetric arrangements in shades of burgundy, white and green from the couple's wedding ceremony.  Across the room, long tables circled the fountain in the center of the room. Luxurious blue velvet table runners continued the color story and set a brilliant backdrop for the floral scape.  Tall glass hurricane globes protected tall taper candles intermingled with textured silver vessels holding nosegays of huge burgundy dahlias, clematis, jade green hypericum berries and quicksand, and ivory roses. Modern black goblets and mercury glass with candles completed the design and tied it to the sweetheart table.    After dinner and dancing, the evening ended with an incredible wedding cake and desserts. The only thing sweeter than this 11-layer shortbread cookie stacked wedding cake adorned with beautiful blooms, was Nathan’s surprise. He had the baker reproduce Krista’s favorite cheesecake, something she could no longer find.  Congratulations Kristina and Nathan, we wish you a sweet life together!

Earlier this summer, the world-famous distiller of gin, Hendrick’s released Midsummer Solstice, a small batch limited edition gin.
Our Tailored Twig floral design team was excited to pair with Sarasota event planner Jennifer Matteo to produce an amazing private local event celebrating this unconventional release featuring floral essence chosen to enhance their signature gin.
Sage, an eclectic dining and event space in Sarasota hosted this amazing event. The Mediterranean style building was the original home of the Sarasota Times newspaper. Guests entered the third-floor private event space through vintage wrought iron gates adorned with vines and brightly colored roses and blooms in shades pink, cream and green. 
Parasols hung from the entranceway celling leading to a vintage bicycle cart overflowing with a blanket of roses in a palette of pink. Organic spheres, resembling hot air balloons floated above the space carrying bottles of Hendrick’s Gin.
A living plant wall draped with orchids welcomed and surprised guests with white gloved hands delivering signature cocktails, while women in vintage costumes embellished with fresh flowers entertained the guests.
A tall bronze toned vessel with a cascade of hot pink roses, peach garden roses, hydrangea, thistle and eucalyptus at one end of the bar showcased the amethyst colored bottle of Midsummer Solstice Gin.
A craft cocktail specialist served unique creations including a “Magic Carpet Ride” made with Hendrick’s Midsummer Solstice Gin, Jasmine Tea Syrup, lemon Juice, Hibiscus Syrup, and Ginger Bitters. 
Cocktail tables were draped in bold floral linen with delicate arrangements of Marianne anemone and soft pink roses in copper and matte black vessels.
Food stations including charcuterie, and platters of tuna tartare, and vegetable and pork empanadas were displayed with wooden gin boxes filled with beautiful full white peonies, pink roses and Italian miniature variegated pitt.
A floral clad maiden bathed in a copper bathtub filled with sweetly scented rose petals next to a display of vintage steamer trunks, drift wood and tall arrangements of pink roses, pincushion protea, veronica, and uniquely textured organic elements.
This display divided the room which lead into an area with lounge seating and a table with several large metal vessels of varying sizes filled with roses in a color story of every shade of pink.
Upstairs, the covered rooftop lounge, with 360 degree views of downtown Sarasota was set with unique containers containing flowers in the colors of a brilliant sunset, with bagpipers and drummers bringing a touch of Scotland to the event.
'Thank you to FiftyFlowers who donated a portion of the flowers and to all of the professionals who were part of this amazing collaboration. Florals and Décor: Tailored Twig Flowers:FiftyFlowers Linen: BBJ Linen Event Design: Jennifer Matteo Event Planning Sarasota Event Venue: Sage Videography: Vibe Chaos Photography: Ariana J Photography And, of course Hendricks Gin Our Tailored Twig design team had an incredible time working with Keri, Chris and their fabulous wedding team. Their Longboat Key wedding was relaxed, bohemian themed and just makes you smile. The couple chose to not do a first look, but to instead see each other on the beach when they arrived for their waterfront wedding ceremony. The beach at the Longboat Key Club and Resort was lined with dark wood pews with throw pillows that popped against the background of sand and water. Accents of pampas grass lined the aisle with a crisscross of rugs, laid in the sand, leading to an incredible round wedding structure of pampas grass that fluttered in the breeze.    Keri made her entrance to ‘Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic’ by The Police. She truly looked very boho wearing a light, flowing halter top wedding gown carrying a loose, hand tailored bridal bouquet of Festiva peonies, wispy pink spray roses, quicksand roses, white Veronica and soft astilbe.  Chris wore tan slacks and a white linen shirt with a boutonniere that combined an air plant, white astilbe, seeded and eucalyptus and a soft pink spray rose tucked in his pocket. A detail that truly reflected the relaxed feel of the day.   Guests relaxed with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on the beach as the couple and their family took time for some waterfront photos. The seating for the cocktail style wedding included long wooden tables with acrylic ghost chairs, vignettes of antique love seats, armchairs mixed with cocktail tables, rugs and throw pillows.  Accessorizing this casual comfortable setting was accomplished with eclectic collections of metallic tone vessels bursting with soft florals and mercury glass votive candles.   Runners of sheer flowing fabric trailed the length of the wooden tables entwined with a garland of eucalyptus, pink and sand colored roses, white Veronica and astilbe.   Keri and Chris opened the evening with their first dance on a white dance floor under a canopy of market lights.  A cocktail style reception dinner with a mix of fun food stations including food truck style food, tapas and an Asian inspired station allowed for a casual evening of dining, dancing and conversation. The couple cut this large cylinder-shaped wedding cake accented with astilbe before the catering team cut and served it with a delicious selection of late night snacks.  Our Tailored Twig design team whishes Keri and Chris the very best, we enjoyed designing this easy, flowing boho chic design that was both casual and elegant.  Thank you to everyone who made this eclectic bohemian wedding a reality.

Truth is, the last time you thought about one was most likely your Senior Prom. Too often the boutonniere is an extension of the bride’s bouquet, one matching flower and some greenery. Our Tailored Twig design team is out to change that perception as we work with couples to make the groom’s boutonniere a unique creation adding personality to the groom’s attire.  Image by Ashlee Hamon Photography Button Hole Boutonnière, loosely translates from French as buttonhole, as a boutonnière was originally worn through the buttonhole on the left side of a gentleman’s jacket. In the past there was a small loop on the back of the lapel to insert the flower stems into, holding the flower in place. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert Most people credit wedding boutonnières to Prince Albert in his 1840 wedding to Queen Victoria. However, historical paintings of their wedding show Prince Albert in full military uniform and no boutonnière. In 1854, the couple reenacted their wedding to take advantage of a new technology called ‘photography,’ but still no boutonnière. A Daily Accessory Regardless of where they originated, in days past a fresh flower boutonnière was a daily accessory to a gentleman’s suit coat. In the 19th century some local flower shops had premade boutonnières ready to sell. As boutonnières are now reserved for special occasions a Tailored Twig custom creation is the answer, please call in advance to place your order.  Image by Katelyn Prisco Photography I DO On your wedding day we are seeing more and more fun accessories for grooms. But, most accessories like cufflinks, a watch or special socks are seen in prewedding detail photos and not much more. A groom’s boutonnière, while coordinating with the bridal bouquet does not need to be limited to just a single bloom.  Image by Fallbrook Photography Express Yourself Whether you choose to include an element of the bride’s bouquet in your boutonnière or to play off the color story of the bride’s bouquet, including the addition of interesting botanicals and textural elements is key. Stem wraps for the boutonnière can come in as many shapes and colors as the boutonnière itself. Organic cording reflecting more rustic wedding or an elegant sheer lace or floral lace applique wrap with samplings from the bride’s gown, all add to the interest of this one of a kind, personalized creation. Our Tailored Twig design team loves adding inventive texture and pops of color to each creation.  Image by L Atelier Lumiere  Image by L Atelier Lumiere  Image by L Atelier Lumiere  Image by LifeLong Studios Twice As Nice When working with two grooms, nothing says the boutonnières need to match. Make your boutonnière personal. Select different botanicals in the same color story, add a unique textural detail to make each one a little different or simply change the color of the ribbon on the stem wrap.  Image by Katelyn Prisco Photography Crushing On You Speaking of twice as nice, have you ever seen a groom’s boutonnière just before the wedding reception? After hugging several dozen wedding guests, and taking his jacket off for wedding photos, the boutonnière needs a little refreshing. Be sure to order your groom a second boutonnière and swap it out during the evening as it the first gets a little worn, keeping him looking sharp for the rest of the evening. You will be glad you did.  Image by Katelyn Prisco Photography Be sure to connect with our Tailored Twig design team to design a personalized, custom tailored creation for the man in your life. Our Tailored Twig design team has already shared a glimpse into Rebecca and Michael's wedding at The Ringling's Ca' d'Zan Mansion in our Inspiration to Creation feature on their sweetheart table and reception décor. 
However, this incredible Sarasota wedding is so much more, that we knew we wanted to feature the entire wedding day. This wedding film encapsulated their beauty and love of their wedding day. Rebecca looked stunning in a long flowing, silk satin wedding gown with an illusion lace bodice and long sleeves. A hand-tailored bridal bouquet of full, lush, white peonies, blush garden roses, and seeded eucalyptus was the perfect accessory for this luxurious wedding gown. 
Their outdoor Sarasota wedding ceremony fully embraced the waterfront backdrop. Four statuesque white columns topped with exquisite crown molding and a crystal chandelier created the chuppah for the couples sunset wedding ceremony. The chuppah was draped in soft flowing sheer rose colored fabric, accented with climbing branches and anchored with clusters of white and blush flowers. The aisle was adorned with groupings of hurricane globes with chunky white pillar candles and greenery. A rope of greenery draped between to large white garden urns protected the custom aisle runner that was hand painted with their gold wedding crest. The urns overflowed with white, quicksand and peaches and cream roses, as well as blush garden roses, and Italian ruscus. 
As darkness fell, wedding guests were transported across the estate to the Ringling Museum and Courtyard for an evening filled with dinner and dancing. The couple's sweetheart table with intertwined circles of greenery, floating candles, and gold candelabra echoed the design and color story of the garden wedding reception. 
Long wooden tables with soft creamy fabric runners were anchored with tall gold risers topped with arrangements of roses, white astilbe, ranunculus, dusty miller and snapdragons continuing the warm white and blush palette. Clear glass charger plates with gold rims reflected the warm candlelight of floating candles in clear glass vessels and clusters of flowers that dotted the length of each table. Hanging crystal chandeliers, and garden lighting along with a starlit sky enhanced the shimmer of the floating candles and gold accents. 
Rebecca and Michael could not have asked for a more magical evening. Thank you to the incredible wedding professionals who collaborated to create this dream wedding.

Their wedding day was a brilliant color story of bright hot pink, greenery, and touches of shimmering gold. These colors were the perfect accents to the fantastic shades of green found throughout the Ringling’s gardens. Christian’s bridal bouquet was a beautiful hand tailored creation filled with deep hot pink roses, pink garden roses, soft light pink Ester roses, and white Eskimo roses with wisps of tropical ginger, seeded eucalyptus.  Robb’s boutonniere of peach ranunculus, tropical ginger, and waxflower popped against his plaid textured tuxedo jacket with a black satin shawl collar.  Christian’s bridal party wore stunning long fuchsia pink gowns with a light pink bow accent in the back. Their bouquets stood out against the brilliant pink gowns by incorporating white roses, spray roses, and light pink Ester Roses with touches of light pink ranunculus and seeded eucalyptus for texture.  The couple’s outdoor wedding ceremony took place after dark in the Ringling’s Courtyard. The lights from the surrounding arches, hanging crystal chandeliers and thousands of twinkling white lights set a luxurious backdrop. A thick, luxurious garland of greenery was draped on the dark wooden wedding structure.  Hosted in the center of the courtyard’s gardens, Christian and Robb’s reception tables were draped in white linen surrounded by gold chivari chairs. Gold charger plates and gold edged acrylic table numbers added some shimmer, allowing the gold metallic vessels overflowing with greenery and pops of hot pink and white flowers to really stand out.  Their amazing four-tiered wedding cake continued the contemporary design and brilliant color story. White top and bottom layers framed two layers brushed in gold leaf and a deep raspberry color, with hot pink spray roses cascading down the tiers.  Congratulations Christian and Robb! Thank you to all of the wedding professionals who brought Christian and Robb’s wedding day to life.
