your #1 favourite floral colour palette
/from our Signature FLORAL Series, Introducing: the Ashley
ASHLEY = blooms in whites (and/or creams depending on the season & which foxy flowers are available) + softest pinks/blush + greens …. That’s it.
The Ashley is a floral arrangement expertly designed in a clear vase with a leaf lining the inner vessel, or in an opaque ceramic or metallic vase. We chose this for you, design in it in our private Toronto studio & deliver throughout the Greater Toronto & Hamilton Areas.
The florals used are also chosen by the florist. It’s the floral designer who intuits the right stems, for your orders, based on your chosen budget, card message and elements of what are seasonally available. You can expect field grown flowers from local Ontario growers like dahlia & peonies, when in season. As well as imported stems- like roses and orchids
I really do love designing this soft, demure yet luscious princess… the composition of colours truly is sweet, heart-melting and sincere. I really feel that one can’t be in a foul mood when you look at this heavenly ditty- the energy of colours is so pleasant, and easy on the eyes. The palette is ethereal yet grounded. Hopeful. Charming. Genuine.
Here are photos of The Ashley as we’ve designed and delivered to your favourite follies.. each different, and yet true to her colour story. You’ll notice different flower & foliage pairings, as we design with flowers true to the season that we’re in.
This palette has been a favourite of yours for Wedding Anniversary well-wishes, Birthdays, Bat-Mitzvah’s, Get Well, Congratulations, Valentine’s, Mother’s Day.. a very versatile statement, suitable for so many occasions.
And if you’re curious, yes there is a real Ashley! We were introduced through our long standing client alo- where we designed flowers for her intimate and beautiful wedding in 2018. The wedding took place in the private dining room at alo restaurant- followed by curated cocktails & bubbles at their bar, and then concluded with a culinary feast back in the stylish dining room. Ashley’s Bridal Bouquet, if you’re wondering- was inspired by the whispy blooms clutched by Meghan Markle… though I had to get creative as this wedding was in September and the Royal’s nuptials took place in a different climate from Toronto- and on May 19th, 2018. Different seasons, offer different flowers- and in September, here in Canada, we can’t get Lily of the Valley… but, I digress… perhaps, i’ll blog about that another day… ;)
