Palm Springs Florist

Put your hands in the air! You and your Florist are going to Rock this Wedding!

Are students raising their hands distracting? One English school thinks so. Now they have to give a “thumbs up” if they know an answer in class. Parents think this is pretty goofy and that their kids look like The Fonz all day long.  (Remember Happy Days? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller)?
Whatever the hand signal, the kids are still involved, and demonstrating enthusiasm. Enthusiasm, when it comes to planning any event, especially a wedding, is key from everyone involved, especially the people creating your wedding flowers. No one should be blase about the most important day of your life – especially if you are paying them to perform a service.
Look for a specialty high end flower shop (Like My Little Flower Shop in Palm Springs, of course, but if you are in other parts of the country, call! We can guide you to the best florists). If you’re having a Palm Springs destination wedding, your florist should know the best Coachella Valley wedding vendors so as to refer you. Most important: your florist must be ENTHUSIASTIC about you, your wedding and your beautiful flowers. Make sure they get to know you and listen to your needs, wishes and wildest dreams, and don’t just hand you a list of prices.
To sum up, make any florist, in Palm Springs or elsewhere, raise their hand! You’re the one who gets to give the thumbs up. (And we know you’d give it to My Little Flower Shop …come visit)!
An inspired bouquet. Let us inspire you!

Workin’ 9 to 5 – At Something Other Than Planning Your Wedding

by
my own office at work :-)
Remember - do some work at work!

What do you say when someone asks you what you do for a living? I’m guessing for 99% of you it’s not, “Oh I’m independently wealthy so I spend the work-week eating bon-bons and planning my wedding.” So that means there are brides in offices, retail establishments, and government jobs all over the country, brimming with news about your latest nuptial truimph or travail.  One word of advice:

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Guess what? Your co-workers are well aware you’re getting married. So is your boss. In this economy, we do not advise you to to keep reminding them that you’re really distracted by a big non-work project.  Surfing wedding websites during office hours is another way of pointing out that your focus is elsewhere for the next year or so.  And while that may be true, at least make an effort to show some enthusiasm for your work.

Take heart, little brides! One or two co-workers will want to live vicariously through you, and so inevitably dishing about flowers and dresses will occur.  But other than with Bridget in accounting, try to maintain the Separation of Work and Wedding.

Quick! Minimize the window! Here comes your manager!

Down the rabbit hole…what was I searching for to begin with?

Ah the paradox of the Internet.  So helpful, but it’s kind of a rabbit hole. Alice went down following something specific, and then all of a sudden she was at a tea party full of  strange people.  So you went on looking for a certain color combination of Jordan almonds. You clicked here and there and suddenly you’re on Salon.com reading about how the Democratic, Republican and Tea Parties are full of really strange people.

 

What’s the lesson here?  Make sure you stay focused on your particular search.  And if you’re just in the mood to knock around on the Knot, or read your favorite Floral and Event Design Studio blog, set your kitchen timer for a half hour to spare your eyes and your sanity.  The rabbits like to keep their holes to themselves.
