The city of Bangalore is just waking up, but our day began hours ago. At Flowers by Design, our ‘day’ starts long before sunrise, filled with the sweet scent of fresh-cut flowers. You see the stunning arrangements and decorations at weddings and events, but have you ever wondered about the journey of each bloom?
Join us as we take you behind the scenes, from the bustling flower market to the final, breathtaking creation.
The Morning Hunt: Sourcing Our Blooms
Our day starts with a treasure hunt at the crack of dawn. We head to the vibrant KR Market, a kaleidoscope of colors and a symphony of scents. It’s not just about buying flowers; it’s about hand-picking the perfect ingredients for someone’s special day. We carefully inspect each stem and petal for freshness and quality. We choose from a variety of local and seasonal blooms, ensuring every flower is in peak condition to make your event unforgettable.
Back at the Studio: The Art of Conditioning
Once we return to our studio, the real work begins. This crucial step, known as conditioning, is what gives our flowers a long, beautiful life. We trim each stem at an angle and remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline. We then place the flowers in fresh, clean water with flower food. This ensures they are perfectly hydrated and ready to be transformed into works of art.
From Vision to Reality: The Creative Process
With our flowers prepped and ready, it’s time to bring a client’s vision to life. This is where our design expertise shines. We take the ideas and themes we discussed during our consultations and translate them into stunning floral arrangements.
First, we create a foundation using greenery, then we strategically place the main “hero” flowers. Finally, we add smaller blooms and fillers to create depth and texture. Every arrangement is a unique masterpiece, carefully crafted to match the style and personality of your event.
The Final Touch: Delivery and Installation
The final leg of the journey is getting the flowers to you. We carefully package each arrangement to ensure it survives Bangalore’s traffic without a single petal out of place. Once on-site, our team works tirelessly to install the decor. We transform venues, from a grand mandap to an intimate dinner setting, ensuring every detail is perfect.
More Than Just Flowers
At the end of the day, it’s about more than just a job. We get to be a part of life’s most cherished moments, from the joy of a wedding to the warmth of a family celebration. The tired hands and early mornings are all worth it when we see the final result and the smiles on our clients’ faces.
