Our New Look on Instagram

Instagram-Wedding-Flowers-Inspiration

If you follow us on Instagram you may have noticed something different. So far 2015 is a year of big, beautiful changes for us. First we gave our site a new look, and then we moved into our new Manhattan showroom. As Creative Director, it’s important to me that everything we do conveys the romantic, feminine aesthetic of Bride & Blossom, so our Instagram feed is now a more carefully curated stream of pure inspiration. Behind the scenes moments from events like our showroom launch party, wedding details that thrill us, and the very best of our wedding-flower creations. Follow us and let me know what you think of the change.

Beautiful Wearable Tech Arrives

Beautiful-Wearable-Tech

Last week at London’s BAFTA Television Awards, British actress Donna Air hit the red carpet in in a dazzling example of “wearable tech.” The blush chiffon dress was designed by Rebecca Street in collaboration with House of Fraser. LED lights embedded in the bodice of the dress, and trailing down the skirt, give the high-fashion silhouette an ethereal glow. I would even call this dress… wedding worthy.

Watch this video to see the dress in motion and to learn more about how it was created.

Wedding Tech & the WedTech Summit

WedTech Summit San Francisco

“Wedding Tech,” is the intersection of the wedding industry – designers, vendors, venues, and newly engaged couples – and the thought leaders, web architects and social media gurus of the technology world. These two industries have something very important in common: creative passion.

Each lighting-fast technological advance is met with fresh ideas for applying it to wedding planning, event design, service marketing, and social-media sharing. The result? Smartphone apps for wedding registries and RSVPs, 3D-printed wedding-cake toppers, wearable tech for brides, and hashtags to track guest photos and mentions in real time. This is an exciting time for brides-to-be, tech-savvy wedding pros, start-up entrepreneurs and angel investors.

Moms as Brides: Happy Mother’s Day Part 2

Mothers-Day-Brides-Manhattan
Happy Mother’s Day to all our beautiful brides who walked down the aisle with their own son or daughter as ring bearer or flower girl! We always love to see the ways that children are included in wedding ceremonies and celebrations. It’s especially touching to see kids escort their moms to the altar.

To all the brides who got married with their children at their side, all the brides who became step-moms when they said their vows, all our brides who are now moms or moms-to-be… have a beautiful Mother’s Day!
