My lifetime dream became a reality with the opening of Modern Day Floral. Everyday I am fortunate enough to work with one of the most beautiful mediums in the world, fresh flowers. I absolutely love what I do and thanks to my brides, vendors, retails customers and special event client, I get to live out my dream daily. I would also like to personally thank my incredible staff for all their hard work and passion... They inspire me daily! Enjoy the blog, visit often and remember, we love "warm fuzzies!"
MEET THE STAFF!
What do you get when you bring a group of passionate and talented people together? Modern Day Floral! These fascinating men and women amaze me everyday with their commitment and love for this business. I think what truly makes our group so special is the diverse backgrounds we come from... From interior to clothing design, retailer and experience floral design... Wow, what a group!
Emily is one of my lead designers - she brings the energy to the group. She has been with me from the beginning and is responsible for the "look" that has become Modern Day Floral! The talent, commitment and positive attitude she brings to work is invaluable. The cup is always 1/2 full... She is my AI in AIFD!
Karen is another of my lead designers - her calm nature, experience and romantic style bring a complimentary element to Modern Day Floral. She is the most amazing Christmas tree decorator and is affectionately known as Miss Christmas :)
Rueben is the newest lead designer to the group! His clean, unique and contemporary styles brings a new flare to Modern Day Floral. He keeps us entertained with his amazing music collection on his iPod!!
Erin brings with her a BFA in interior design from Kendall College of Art and Design and an incredibly passionate type A personality. She is my checks and balances girl with a quest for knowledge. Perspective drawings are definitely her specialty... This girl is going places!
Lauren is our public relations and marketing guru! She brings a fun, spunky energy to our group and isn't afraid to jump into the middle of any task!!
Charlie, Jonathan, Ernie, Aaron and Ryan are the guys of the group (poor souls)! The mere fact that they tolerate all of us for more than 5 minutes is a miracle. Estrogen flows in buckets at Modern Day but believe it or not, we're all a loving family!
There have been several beautiful events in 2010 – so many different styles, so many different details, so many different memories. This summer, was definitely one for the books! We worked with some amazing clients and incredible vendors. I have to start this blog post by sending some love to Jessica Pennington of Stella Events...
Congratulations all you newly engaged couples!! We hope to become a valuable source to you as you make your way through the planning process! One of the few first things you’ll want to tackle is determining a wedding style… this will help you when narrowing down your dress, the wedding colors, venue selections, flowers, linens,...
My husband is still one of those disbelievers of social media. Although he has a facebook page and a twitter account, he finds the whole thing, well, a bit crazy. I, on the other hand, am your typical social media junkie. I check my iphone immediately when I wake up and sleep with it...
Can you believe it’s October already? I’m completely blown away at how quickly the summer flew by but thankful for another stellar wedding season. Now that things are getting back to normal I look forward to sharing more on the blog. This year we had the pleasure of designing flowers for several Modern Day Floral...
Last August, we had the privilege of doing a wedding for Jodi Bos from In Any Event…her brother was getting married and they wanted us to do the flowers for the wedding. It was such an honor! Even though Jason and Jennifer Vanderploeg got married on August 29th, The Knot loved their wedding so much they wanted...
Three and a half years ago, I opened Modern Day Floral in downtown Grand Rapids. My vision for the business was a quaint, urban boutique where customers would come in to chat, sip coffee and shop. I wanted my puppy Jack to come to work with me and enjoy the carefree attitude of the “boutique...
The first Grand Rapids “Bridal Experience” took place earlier this month at the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel. With so many beautiful ballrooms, it is one of the best venues for a bridal show. This particular show was unique because each individual ballroom was staged to represent a specific area or event during the course of...
This past Sunday, I hosted a baby shower for one very special lady at St. Cecilia’s Music Center. With Spring right around the corner, we wanted to keep the color palette bright and cheery by using a spring green bengaline napkin and a pink, green and white paisley print linen. A warm thank you to...
On November 10th, Renee Austin held their first open house! When Angie and Maggie, the beautiful ladies behind this incredible space, contacted us, I knew we were in for a life time friendship! Over the past several months, Renee Austin has become a staple in West Michigan Bridal Boutiques. Walking into their space, you feel...
