South Jersey Wedding Florist: Welcome to A Garden Party’s NEW(ish) Studio!
The remodel is complete!! I am so happy to unveil our dream come true, A Garden Party’s Floral Design Studio! Dawn and I have been dreaming big and have spent a LOT of time discussing what direction we want our business to go in and what our priorities are and how to meld all of that into one big happy family! Our vision for our company is to continue with what we do best; weddings and events all while raising happy and healthy children (I am so grateful that I can do both!). We are thrilled with the success so far (over 60 events booked for this year!) and are happy to see all of our hard work yield many successful events. Our passion is to meet with brides, help them create a floral vision and then wow them (and even ourselves!) with the final product. It sounds simple, but we all know weddings are full of adventures! With our newly renovated space, we can do our jobs even better now, thanks to our freshly organized workspace and designated consultation area. We are so thankful to all of the crews that helped us with the construction, a job well done!! Dawn and I (and good ole Mom) are still adding some finishing touches, but people have been begging me to post images, so here we go!
Welcome brides, near and far! Our new sign is ordered and will be here in a few weeks, but we think this is looking rather charming!
This was the day the concrete was poured, Lee put his little prints in it!
Lee monitoring John (prepping for concrete)….this picture always makes me laugh.
Our workspace under construction….yes, we did a few weddings like this.
Consultation area, mid project.
We added shiplap to the walls and ceiling, this wall used to be a corn crib that Mitch reworked into built in storage. Mom hung a gutter to hold all of our ribbons and we have a perfect place to display pics of a few of our beautiful brides!
I know this may not seem impressive to most of you, but we FINALLY have running water! John promised me last year that if I booked 20 weddings in 2009 that he would install it, TA DA! He is a man of his word. The sink is a used gem that we found in Vineland, it is a vegetable processing sink out of a grocery store that is perfectly designed for us with a place to mount our bunch cutter and a hole for the trash, which we now compost (most of it anyway). Oh and a HUGE sink!
Yeah yeah yeah, not to impressive, but DID YOU SEE THE BEFORE SHOT?
Here we are (Dawn on the left, Mary on the right)!
Entering our consult space, I hung this old mirror that my Poppop bought for me at an auction a few years ago. I painted it and it looks better than new! We will be adding shelves here to display our books and albums.
My favorite spot!!! Well, besides the sink. We poured concrete in this bay (it was a dirt floor a month ago!) and insulated the walls, added the boards, but chose to leave an original beam exposed at the top and bottom. Our barn was built in the 1920's with our house and we wanted to save some of that charm. The upstairs has an awesome hay loft, which we now use to store our rental items. Pull up a seat and let's chat in our nook!
Our bride wall of fame!
Enlarged prints showcasing our work are displayed for all to admire.
All of our current centerpiece options are on display, which makes it so much easier to visualize and order your wedding centerpieces.
Well, what do you think? The new space is so enjoyable to work in and Dawn and I even think it has helped us creatively! Stop on by for a visit or schedule your consultation today to see it yourself. We would love to have you!
