This weeks activities

So I thought I should update with what we have been doing this week at In Bloom.

After a great weekend of warm sunshine and a full days wedding and funeral flowers workshop on Saturday we started off Monday with the usual contract flowers. Checking the flowers at the Radisson Blu and Harvey Nichols, providing flowers for City Spirit and Morgan Hunt etc.

Then to start thinking about getting things ready for the Sex and the City evening Friday, a screening of the new movie and a cocktail and champagne after party at Broadway Casino. What else would we do but our large Martini glasses filled to the brim with pink water and luscious black roses overflowing with pearls. We decided to add an extra bit of sparkle by using a battery operated light inside the vase and putting them on a mirror plate to reflect the light. Mirror plates are really great for adding the extra touch to an arrangement for corporate events and weddings. We have done these flowers FOC as a sponsor of the event so we are all off to enjoy this event tomorrow and hopefully do a bit of networking... We have done a lot of flowers for the Casino in the past and have been asked to provide some artificial arrangements for areas within the casino which we have delivered today.

We have also had one of our regular customers in to order a delivery of flowers so tomorrow we have a great £100 bouquet to deliver. Those sort of customers and very welcome and enables us to get some beautiful cymbidium orchid and callas to make a stunning arrangement.

We are also providing some nice big bouquets for the Young Business awards. We have been doing their flowers for the past two years when they hold their awards at the ICC, Birmingham.
So, a busy week now I look back on it and looking forward to the bank holiday weekend. Luckily I have got it off and going to Bath for a hen weekend!
