Napkin flowers table decorations, chair covers etc

With most Asian style Weddings - the meals are served as a Banquet style wih a revolving table in the centre
of a table -so the choices of Table centrepieces are quite limited- Which is why some people opt for Napkin or a side plate flowers instead- Moving away from the traditional scattered rose petals - and something a little different is a why we chose to use - Singapore & alternate vanda orchids set on a bed of cinnimon sticks
& satin/ organza ribbons..

Cake flowers arranged for 3 tier Wedding Cake- with Lilies, singapore orchids, vanda orchids & trailing ivy
Asian theme Wedding - flowers on side plate napkin arrangement with cinnamon sticks

Bridal table - Long & low arrangements with trailing Ivy and flowers scattered across the remaining Bridal table

Round posy bouquet with lithianus, lavender roses,Vendela cream roses & mauve colours

Variuos buttonholes, corsages & flowergirl wandCute change from Flowergirl basket-
A Flower girl wand - a popular choice amongst the Little princesses!
 Congratulations Lisa & Russell!

Roses with Dusty Miller rather than greenery..

Some people don't like greenery on the bouquets..
I don't mind them - there are some gorgeous camelia leaves we generally use
or for a different look we could use magnolia leaves which are a slightly brown/ caramel tinge
of colour which really breaks up the look of the bouquets.






















Another option is Dusty miller mostly know as Silver suede foilage.
I love this look - It's almost like an Ice-white/ silver look and it feels
very much like a very soft suede fur.

I have attached some pics of a previousWedding using Pastel Pink and;
Cream Vendela & Chantilly and Sweet akito roses with Dusy Miller foilage:

Calla Lilly Arm Sheath - Classic Bridal


The Calla Lily bouquet used along the arm- called an arm sheath, has long been a favourite amongst many Brides and bridesmaids for many years..
However as they are generally not available all year round and if you have your heart set on them- the option of using excellent quality Latex Calla lilies is always still available!

I have never been a big fan of artificial flowers but when using the better quality one's and when constructed correctly - they can look very much like the real thing and also of-course last forever!


Here are some pics of the arrangements we put together for Margarita for her Big Day set on 14Feb- Also another reason for choosing the fakes was due to the inflation of fresh flower prices over the Valentines day!




  We used crystal embellishments across the top of the Roses - Bridal bouquet and a crystal /pearl buckel on the stem wrapped with Ivory satin..

November Wedding Flowers- Peonies & David Austen Roses

It's New Year's Eve and It is time to reminice on all the great times and
give thanks for all that we have and look forward to the New Year-
I just know 2010 is going to be a wonderful year.. I can feel it!

If I could do it all again..
I would marry the same great guy, have the same beautiful kids
live in the same street, have the same loving friends ..

But I would have my Wedding in November Instead of March-
Only for the Flower choices!!

Church Wedding decorations - Pew ends by Chanele Rose team

Last weekend we decorated a Wedding at the Sacred Heart Monestary for Honey & Michel's Wedding.. This has to be by far the most beautiful Church I have seen!

We used Singapore orchids for the Pew ends as her colour scheme was purple a very effective colour against the organza white pew ends, we also added some special touches to their Chairs for the ceremony.

Teardrop Bouquet - Still My favourite


Teardrop bouquets are generally have a lot more detail and take a lot longer to construct- Hence the price difference between this and the Natural stem round Posy bouquets.. A good bouquet should look even and well balanced and be as light as possible to carry!  When determining the size of your Bouquet - should should first consider your body frame and the size of your skirt. A teardrop bouquet generally has a dome shaped top and trails gradually to a point at the bottom..  it is designed in an Oasis foam generally each Flower, bud and Leaf is wired  and glued individually so that it does not fall apart.. which is generally time consuming but the Final result - Very Worthwhile!
The giving of Flowers, Gifts & jewelery is a Customary tradition among many traditions! Vi was kind enough to share with us her Stunning Photos of her Engagement..
Thanks Vi- Your both Make such a Stunning Couple and we wish you all the best for your Future together! We are looking forward to your Upcoming Wedding..

Wedding Flowers & Bridal bouquets in Sydney




Choosing your flowers for your wedding day in Sydney requires planning advice from a wedding and event specialist. Chanele Rose Flowers & Events, Sydney is always able to inform you of seasonal availability of flowers and we are aware of suitable flowers that will work best at the time of your Wedding.

You will need to make an appointment generally allowing approximately One hour. Ask us to come up with Flower options and ideas for your wedding bouquets, floral centre pieces and styles. It's a great idea to bring along fabric swatches of dress colours and pictures of Bridal flowers that grab your attention. Things that are discussed are colours, themes, who needs what flowers, budgets, and cake and reception flowers.

Once you have decided on your Bridal bouquet, the style and theme can be carried through to the flowers for the bridal party as well as floral arrangements for the wedding ceremony and reception flowers.

On the day, Chanele Rose Flowers & Events can deliver your Bridal flowers, usually at the same time the photographer arrives. If you are planning a  Wedding in the warmer months make sure you leave keep a vase handy for your Flowers to have a drink when they are not neededand mist spray them during the day to ensure they will continue to look great all day

Creating a perfect day doesn't have to be a difficult task, you just need to be creative with your ideas and don't be afraid to think outside of the box. And most of all enjoy the planning process and your special day.

Wedding Flowers

I am not sure if I have mentioned as yet how much we love Weddings!

Yes.. we do and the whole she-bang- L O V E I T !
(favourite word for this week- She Bang)

And I guess you can tell in our work:
We offer Wedding flowers, Bridal bouquets, buttonholes, corsages, Table centrepieces,
Chair covers, Backdrops with fairy lights throughout Sydney, NSW.

Very popular at the Moment are these gorgeous Martini glass Table centrepieces.
The great thing is we can theme your Event with the colours of your choice..
These pink ones in the photos are very pretty we have added Pink and white coloured gel
for the Margarita effect Martini glasses- with the White/ Pink Oriental lillies& Lisianthus flower feature
they are very effective!

A good florist will know that table centrepieces should not block the view of the other guest on
the tables.  You should keep your Flower centrepieces either small and intimate (no taller than 20cm high)
or Tall and spectacular (over 45cms tall) that way all your guest will be able to socialise nicely on the
tables without an obstructed view..
