BEST BUDS FLORIST, SYDNEY

Our gorgeous shop display today!

2011-04-27T23:28:00.000-07:00

With a short week and all the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday corporate runs squeezed into Wednesday morning, things have been hectic - but the team has managed to set the shop up and it looks amazing! (as usual :))

Takes the cake!

2010-07-11T21:32:00.000-07:00

I love this cake arrangement from last weekends weddings. Antique and white roses and tetra nuts sandwiched between rough icing....mmmm! The Bridesmaids bouquets were equally divine....and the bride had a teardrop bouquet to match.

Its all about colour!

2010-07-05T20:24:00.000-07:00

While many brides are keen to keep the colour pallette for their wedding soft and neutral, we also see brides who want to celebrate with colour. This is one of my favourite bouquets for a bride who decided the more colours, the better! Not the usual request, but it did look amazing.

New Season Japonica - A sign of Spring!

2010-07-04T15:58:00.000-07:00

Very exciting to see some Japonica in market this morning - gorgeous coral coloured blossom on angular branches. Its looked fabulous in our corporate arrangements, and is so delicate it had to keep me company in the front seat of the van the whole way from markets. Bring on Spring!

Heavenly smell!

The foyer of Sydneys Sheraton on the Park smelled divine this week with a huge arrangement of lemon oriental lilies to brighten up these cold days! Nice work Andrew!

Purples and Creams for a stunning Waterfront wedding on Sunday June 27

2010-06-30T01:05:00.000-07:00

A mixture of cream 'Amazing' roses with lilac imported roses and dark purple lisianthus for the bridesmaids, with a full posy of 'Amazing' for the bride. Her venue was Waterfront down at Circular Quay and the room looked perfect with posy bowls of mixed roses in matching colours.

The new Curzon Hall room is perfect for our crystal candelabras!

2010-06-30T00:49:00.000-07:00

The bride who booked in 32 of our new candelabras for her wedding at Curzon Hall on Sunday knew what she was doing because when I got there I was astounded at what a perfect match they were to the rest of the room! The new chandeliers (which you can sort of see in my picture) helped set the theme perfectly.

A corporate dinner in white and gold

2010-06-30T00:20:00.000-07:00

With a white, gold and black brief, we chose oriental lilies and gold vanda orchids to grace the tables of a corporate function at the stunning Quay restaurant on Monday. Andrew got artistic with the camera to give these great shots! (what an amazing view)

Best Buds has the 'X - Factor'!

2010-06-29T23:47:00.000-07:00

A few days ago we had the exciting challenge of creating floral designs for the dressing rooms of the judges of the new show the 'X - Factor'. Impressing the likes of Kyle Sandilands, Natalie Imbruglia, Matt Newton, Guy Sebastian and Ronan Keating was no easy task! Pictured are two of the male designs.

The store looks fabulous!

2010-06-23T17:23:00.000-07:00

Our fresh selection of winter flowers looks absolutely stunning, and definitely makes me smile when I come in to work! Tulips are everywhere, in some spectacular colours, and whilst local roses are getting hard to find, this week we have some beautiful colours in. Lilies are sparse due to the recent bad weather but little treats like freesias are a lovely alternative for something fragrant.
