NZ House & Garden

This Christmas wreath is so successful, made from Ruskus it lasts for so long and is such a lush gorgeous addition to any door.






One of the things we love most with magazine work is getting a cover shot. Christmas 09 was all about us and we were thrilled for such a gorgeous shot and the cover no less!

NZ House & Garden



Adding a modern edge to simple Arum lilies, simply bound wiht some ribbon and grouped all on a lean.

This tulip arrangment has to have been one of our most popular arrangements published in NZ House and Garden. Everbody loves Tulips but a simple vase covered in a fish net stocking adds a bit of wow factor, not to forget the great photography.

Inspiration Page NZ House and Garden. Fish Bowl stack, a little something different for each vase. This is always gets a great reaction in our classes.

This arrangement we got a bit carried away with the size, our brief was to make an arrangement for a side table and it obviously was a little large but it still made a gorgous shot with lots of calls for the vase and the pretty combination of flowers.
Another gorgeous Christmas wreath. Made for white stock it really is so pretty and smells unbelievably gorgeous. The touch of purple satin ribbon is a unexpected bit of colour for Chirstmas or celebration

NZ House & Garden

At Vida Flores we are very lucky to have formed a great relationship with the stylist of NZ House and Garden. They take our flowers and photograph them in the gorgeous homes they feature. Most months we get a feature flower page to how our inspiration of the moment as you may guess this is from a Christmas Issue. A mass of Red Roses is always a statement and the perfection of this arrangement is stunning 

Red Amaryllis have such a glamorous Christmas feel, it must be the large simplistic blooms. Mixed here with some artificial foliage and a candle makes a lovely table centerpiece

Butterfly Wedding

These gorgeous displays were made for a wedding that had a butterfly theme! We loved making these as they were a bit out of the ordinary and created the perfect effect for this wedding. Once again in the long room at Kelliher Estate

Nathalie Harel Wedding

This is the wedding of Nathalie Harel at Kelliher Estate earlier this year. It was so pretty with the mixture of white and lilac. The roses are Ocean Song and one of my personal favourites, mixing it with freesias, lisianthus, sweetpeas and lavender. It truly was a magical day for Nathalie her husband, friends and family. Kelliher Estate is a venue managed by Dawsons Catering and is Aucklands most fabulous venue, if you are after a peaceful, hidden and spectacular place to hold your wedding or event, this is the perfect place.

Cloudy Bay Wine Tasting at Hanene Pavilion. Martin Bosley was the chef for the event and the plants, herbs and vegetables reflected the menu. Table arrangement extended the full 8metres of table!! Lush display exposing the soil and roots of the produce and plants!! A personal favourite of ours!
