Pam's 60th Birthday Party

A couple of months ago, Floreat Floral did the flowers for Pam's 60th Birthday Party in Narrabri.

This was a very special occasion, as I've known Pam my whole life and I was honoured that she asked me to help her with her birthday party!!!

Pam was having a long lunch on the verandah at she and her husband John's beautiful home in the mountains east of Narrabri, and Pam and her daughter Weens had worked hard to create a really stylish scene which you'll see in the photos below. It felt like we were in a trendy Surry Hills restaurant but with Castle Top mountain in our view!

We all enjoyed a delicious lunch by the amazing Katrina O'Brien from Relish Catering in Narrabri (who also catered for my Mum's 60th a few weeks later, which you might remember I posted about recently)

It was a great day. Enjoy the photos!

Jo and Andy, Sergeant's Mess, Clifton Gardens, June 2012

Floreat Floral Design prepared the flowers for Jo and Andy's Winter Wedding in June 2012 at the Sergeant's Mess in Clifton Gardens.

We did some really pretty informal bouquets, and the boys wore orchids with pride, as they were the Groom's mother's favourite flower.

The bouquets were translated to a wintry theme for the table arrangements.

I LOVED delivering the bouquets to Jo! The girls were getting ready at Jo's family home, and knowing there would be a few family members there who's buttonholes and corsages I had to pin on, I had no idea until I arrived what Greek Extravaganza awaited me! There must have been 50-60 people there of all ages - firing up for the day ahead, dancing and having a great time! It was so exciting!

Happy Birthday Mum!!

We had a fantastic celebration on Saturday, for my Mum Annie Lampe's 60th Birthday!!!

We had a lovely lunch in the garden at home in a marquee - and decorated it with lots of flowers from our garden - blossom at the entrance to the marquee and hanging from the ceiling and long rectangular vases put together by my talented sister-in-law Nikki, with hyacinth, ranunculus, lavendar, rosemary, pierus and stock.

Thank you to both my Aunt's Libby and Chrissy for the most beautiful photos! And you'll also see the amazing painting of our garden at the top that my brothers and sister-in-law gave Mum for her birthday, painted by my good friend Erica's amazing, talented and generous Mum, Diana Boyer - painted to amazing detail all the way from England - from photos!

It was honestly the most beautiful day - enjoy the photos! And today is her actual birthday! Happy Birthday Mum! xx
