Houston’s Holiday Décor Queen Brings Floral Magic to Weddings and Event Florals
For over 20 years, Regina Gust has brought magic to event florals and wedding florals alike. This has earned her the distinction of being called Houston’s Holiday Décor Queen. Today, we’ll take a closer look at how her designs make Houston weddings and events that much more magical.
The Secrets to Successful Holiday Floral Arrangements
Regina Gust’s holiday floral arrangements have successfully evoked the holiday spirit for many Houston area businesses and events in Christmases past. What’s the secret to her ongoing success? Most successful holiday floral arrangements begin by taking into account the client’s needs, their space, and the holiday itself. Here are the secrets that go into a successful holiday floral arrangement.
Recognizing Client Style
Each client has their own unique style that needs to be showcased and represented in the design. While floral arrangements and similar décor reflect on their designer’s aesthetic, they also reflect on the space hosting it. In recognizing the client’s style, a designer can create an arrangement that heightens and celebrates their unique viewpoint.
Listening to Ideas
As the old saying goes, “Give the people what they want.” There are certain preconceived notions people have when they see a holiday floral or wedding arrangement. Instead of fighting those natural assumptions (like colors, flower choices, etc.) it’s best to work within trends in exciting artistic ways.
By listening to them and artfully implementing their ideas, a designer can create a decorative arrangement everyone can love.
Make the Most of the Space
No matter the space’s unique quirks, floral arrangements make spaces more dynamic. With brilliant petals and fragrant aromas they fill a space with vibrant life and personality. Even the humblest holiday spaces can become brighter and more full of life with just a simple floral addition.
Keep the Spirit of the Season
Certain colors and styles of floral arrangement and decoration work best for the holiday season. Traditionally, this is the time of year to see poinsettias and arrangements in colors like gold and silver or red and green. By working with, or selectively challenging, these expectations, a designer can create a successful holiday arrangement.
Capturing the Magic of the Season: Ideas for Holiday Florals and Wedding Florals
A decorative winter floral arrangement can help make an otherwise ordinary holiday celebration or wintertime wedding unforgettable. Here are some ideas for future holiday florals and wedding florals that heighten your next event.
Let it Snow
Houston generally doesn’t receive a lot of heavy snowfall, but that doesn’t mean Houstonians can’t celebrate a white Christmas. This doesn’t mean to dust your arrangement with white powder, but rather to consider an extra snowy color pallet.
Consider a bouquet of wintry white flowers, like peonies, ranunculus, white hydrangea, and spray roses. Combined with silver and gold accents, it can create a luxurious wintry arrangement.
Don’t Be Afraid of a Unique Accent
It can be scary to deviate too far from traditional holiday colors and flowers in a holiday arrangement. However, the right unique accent can help your floral arrangement to stand out from the competition. If your space already uses a certain color palette in theming, work within it or add a pop of contrast. This can help simultaneously tie your arrangement in with the wider décor and distinguish it as a standout piece.
Add a Bow On the Top
For many of us, the holiday season is about celebrating with family and friends and exchanging gifts. Keep that association at the top of your mind by adding a decorative bow to a holiday floral arrangement. That way the viewer can subconsciously associate the aesthetic viewing as your gift to them.
