lunch break

a snapshot of a quick-and-easy kampung-feel lunch set up for a dear client within the surrounds of her hollywood glamor home this afternoon.

occidental preoccupation

the wedding reception following the majlis akad nikah in Kajang was held at the Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur, the very next day. but contrary to the traditional majlis, the look of this reception highlighted the client's fancy for the colors and feel of a faraway land decked in wisterias.  to lavish the spaces in and around the ballroom with real wisterias would be tantamount to committing a futile and insane act.  therefore, to fulfill the wishes of our dear client, we shipped in a consignment of premium-grade artificial wisterias in shades of purple, green and white.  with the help of digital imageries and the magical touch of our angels, we created a believable far-off country orchard replete with a path, an arbor and a gazebo all adorned with wisterias and complementary fresh flowers.  even the wedding cake was given a floral makeover.  have a look...

casual collaboration

often times, we collaborated with other event companies to provide the best compromise for our clients when our expertise with flowers coalesced perfectly with the services the other companies provided.  for this wedding reception at the Dewan Perdana Felda, our flowers added an alluring blend to the hardware provided by our counterpart resulting in a charming overall decor that delighted the client.

a walk in the clouds

last saturday, one of our angels, Fareq, celebrated his marriage to his sweetheart Norashiqin with a small reception in his mist enshrouded hometown, Kuala Kubu Bharu.  so, on the day before, we despatched a small band of angels to decorate the venue of the event with flowers and fabrics in demure whites, creams and champagnes.  all of us at Flora Etc., would like to wish Fareq and Norashiqin everlasting love and happiness together.

astrology

it's already the middle of ramadhan and the festive feel is all around us.  our friends at Astro invited us again to embellish their annual iftar affair, this time at the Hilton.  to provide a look different from that of last year's event and to complement their balik kampung theme, we picked a more vibrant color palette for our flower arrangements.  we arranged rose posies in red, pink and cream alongside lose arrangements of hydrangeas and orchids for the low centerpieces.  for the tall centerpieces, elephant ears provided all the drama.
