Hello Vendor Friday!
Need a cool DJ for your wedding or event? I'd highly suggest you give Jeff Donovan a call at 303.885.6657 or click here to see his website:
DJ On Demand
Jeff provided the music for Bella Fiori's vendor party in October 2008. I gave Jeff freedom with the music and he surprised me with a wonderful selection of music - every song had either the word roses or flowers in the title. :)
A Message from Jeff…
I love and live for music. And I love helping celebrate the special events in people’s lives, whether they are getting married, recognizing anniversaries, treating valued employees to a special event, or raising funds for a worthwhile cause.
Since 1997, I have been serving metro Denver and the I-70 corridor with the music and entertainment they need to make events a success. In creating custom-tailored musical entertainment for hundreds of weddings, corporate and private parties, I’ve developed the strengths you can depend on. When you hire me, you get solid experience, an understanding of what makes an event successful and a good reputation.

The Oxford Hotel Bridal Showcase
We enjoyed working at The Oxford Hotel Bridal Showcase last night!
My team worked in the Theatre Room. Here is the ceremony area:

The entry sign with all the vendor logos - we worked with: T'DA, Dramatic Events, A&A Photography, Kelley Kakes and A Music Plus.

The fun linen on the cocktail tables:

Lounge furniture on the upper level of the Theatre room:

Another shot of the ceremony site:

The bridal bouquet of green & white parrot tulips with a collar of Pieris Buds.

Above the entry doors in the ceremony area - we added cylinders with floating candles and more green and white flowers. A great way to soften these areas.

The cool cake by Kelley Kakes! Love it!

Calluna Events 5 year Anniversary Party
Last Friday night was the Calluna Event's 5 year Anniversary Party. We at Bella Fiori are so excited for Heather and her accomplishments. She is a wonderful person and we only wish the best for her!
She invited Bella Fiori to create a fantasy table for her event. Here are a few of my shots from the event. I'm sure we'll get a few professional shots up later this week.
We used rolled black ti leaves to create the structure and nestled purple lisianthus, plum dianthus, sterling silver roses and fuchsia Phalaenopsis orchids throughout.

flower Inspiration :: spring flowers
Good morning fellow flower lovers!
I'm looking out my window on this Monday morning at more snow .. a lovely carpet of white snow.
All this snow is making me think of spring flowers and thought I'd post a few for our viewing pleasure. :)
I love this particular bouquet, it was created a few years ago for a lovely couple. Their wedding took place in Estes Park. The bouquet has clematis which I ordered from a farm in Healdsburg, CA - a winery near my family's home. The roses were brought in from Santa Barbara, CA - garden roses grow wonderfully along the coast of central CA. I added Calladium and scented geranium leaves.

Another one of my favorites:

This lovely handtied contained burgundy garden roses, green cymbidiums, pink sweetpeas and pink calla lilies.

This bouquet had anemones, lisianthus and roses with a type of dusty miller. Very soft and romantic looking.

Here is a very spring inspired bouquet, it is created with gerber daisies, daffodils, iris, buplerm, stock, roses and freesia.

PEONIES! One of the most asked for beauties! This bouquet has three tones of pink peonies with mint. LOVELY!
