The Special Event 2013

Back from 'the windy city', Chicago!  Had a great time attending The Special Event 2013 conference.  I was inspired by the speakers, trade show, and most of all the spectacular city itself.  The citys cape is magnificent, the food divine, and the cold crisp air was refreshing.
My favorite module while at this inspiring conference was Flower Trends Forecast 2013.  The speakers for this seminar were two IFD certified and award winning event designers Bill Schaffer and Kristine Kratt.  Their creativity and understanding of floral design was brilliant.  I left this seminar feeling motivated and energized for the upcoming wedding season.
They shared with us four dinstinct styles that they feel will be the top trends for this year.
Eco Chic: organic materials presented in a modern way
Heirloom: embracing the past but in a romantic manner that provides a modern feel
Enchanted: Rich jewel tones with exotic elements of fairytale and whimsical storybooks.
Personality palette:  Ignite our emotions and reflect our individuality and express our bright playful side

We at Jane Productions are excited to implement these designs into our events here in Southern Oregon.

Also, if you are just as interested in floral design as I am....check out this video.  Just a sample of the seminar I had the privilege of attending!

Pantone's HOT colors for the 2013 season!

I am always excited to see what colors are trending for the season.  Here is Pantone's inspiration board of their Hot picks!  It will be interesting to see how the design team at Jane Productions will be able to use this inspiration and add our own spin on things!  I will be showing these colors to all of my potential brides and look forward to helping them design their dream wedding!

danae + leo

 
 Danae and Leo's wedding turned out simply perfect.  Danae and Leo's style was anthroplogie, vintage with small modern twists.  Danae loves flowers and really wanted the flowers to "pop".  We decided to use a neutral base with vibrant colored flowers.  We achieved the  pop of color she was looking for and then some.  Their wedding was featured on the wedding blog www.loveandlavender.com . Check out this chic wedding site for inspiration and to view the full post.

{bridal bouquets}

One of my favorite parts of executing the design to any wedding is when I get to make my bridal bouquet.  For me it is very intimate and really shows how well I know my brides style.  When I deliver these beauties to my brides I know imediately by the look on their face if they love it.  I've gotten many embraces and even a few tears when delivering these floral treasures.
