Homecoming and Football

Homecoming Wristlets and Boutonnieres

It's football time in Tennessee! A few times per year the Lisa Foster Floral Design team gets the opportunity to help Knoxville high school students with their special occasion flowers. We always prepare what we call the "wristlet bar" in order for customers to easily pick their wristlet, ribbon and bling-bling without too much headache. There are a lot of colors to choose from so we can match most homecoming or prom dresses. 

Each year the trends tend to change and the introduction of Pinterest has helped girls really know what they are looking for. It keeps florists on their toes and up-to-date with what is popular with girls! The 2012/2013 school year brought girls who wanted feathers, beads and big bows. We can only imagine what the trends this year will be. One thing is for certain Knoxville high school student will want style and Lisa Foster Floral Design will be here to make it happen!

2013 Wedding Color Trends

Trending Wedding Colors for East Tennessee Brides

There is no doubt that Pinterest has had a huge impact on the wedding business. Overall brides are more prepared on how they want their cake, wedding picture poses and wedding flowers. This trend does not seem to be fading anytime soon. In fact, Pinterest has bled over into Prom! 

This year the Lisa Foster Floral Design team has seen a few dominate color trends for the year 2013. The first is BLUSH, brides are gah gah over the blush colors. Pinks, peach, corals, ivory and white... and mix in a little soft greens. We've had a multitude of brides want the "soft romantic" look. Pinterest is full of ideas on how to use this color pallet for a wedding. 

Garden Roses have been made popular by Martha Stewart, Pinterest and Other Bridal Magazines. Garden Roses are a great substitute for peonies because of their high petal count and size. 

Teal/Aqua and Pink are a HOT color combination this year! 

Each week we just fall in love with the bridal bouquets! They are the first and foremost theme setter for each wedding!

Knoxville Weddings - Spring Brides

Knoxville Tennessee - Spring Weddings

Reflecting On Past Lisa Foster Floral Design Spring Weddings

Gearing up for spring weddings has caused us to reflect on some of our favorites from years past. As florists in Knoxville, we tend to drool at the thought of peonies, dogwood trees in bloom, tulips and irises. Knoxville is about to explode with beautiful colors, flowers and fresh green grass! Though our abundance of trees can cause our cars to turn yellow and our allergies to act up we really live in a beautiful city. 
April really kicks off our wedding season with outdoor weddings and receptions. 
One of our all time favorite weddings was in April 2012. Ann Bryant was married at a primitive baptist church in Cade's Cove. Nestled in the Smoky Mountains this picturesque setting is perfect for any southern bride.

Stepping back even further let us show off our MOST expensive bridal bouquet... of all time! It happened by accident but just let this serve as a FYI lady slipper orchids are very, very expensive. What a beautiful bride and beautiful bouquet, it doesn't get much better than classic white and crisp greens!

It's hard to believe almost two years has pasted since our friend Julie Roberts was married. She is one-of-a-kind and her wedding was an excellent reflection of that unique sweet personality! Julie spent hours, and hours hand-making bud vases for her centerpieces. Not only is she a talented photographer but she is all around awesome!
