Quarter 1 2012 weddings and Sept. 2012 weddings!

Hello!

It has been too long since I have posted! A few new things (that are cool!):

1) I designed new business cards!
2) I designed KO Floral Designs T-Shirt that is en route to my house...just in time to wear for the upcoming weddings I am designing in September!

Sorry, sideways!

 Back in January I had the honor of designing for Sylvia and Rob's wedding at Levyland Estates in Carlsbad. I posted a few personal pictures back on my first blog, and here are a few more that were taken by the wedding photographer...

In February my cousin Lindsey married Dru at the Prado at Balboa Park. The color was a bright and fun yellow that matched an entertaining wedding! Sean Walker Photography took amazing pictures that you can see on his blog, please click on link below (or paste the link in web browser). It was the largest wedding I have done to date and I know Lindsey and Dru were extremely happy with the flowers :) I have added a couple pictures of my own...

In September I have three (3) weddings coming up that I am thrilled to do-- I LOVE getting into designing mode and making masterpieces! ;) Jessica is a previous co-worker of mine, Amanda is a yogi whom I did yoga teacher training  with back in 2010, and Eupheme is friend of my cousin-in-law, Becca. All are completely different color schemes and designs so I look forward to sharing those with you in about a month!

Thank you for reading! Please feel free to email me @: kristin.osterloh@gmail.com!

Wedding of Kristyna and Matt 11/11/11

Bride Kristyna was referred to me last year by an old friend of mine, Jennifer, who I met at high school :) We connected on Facebook (thanks FB! ;)) and it was great to meet with both Jennifer and Kristyna to discuss her upcoming wedding on thier special day of November 11, 2011.

I had the pleasure of designing Kristyna and Matt's wedding at the Prado in Balboa Park with quite a unique challenge -- the wedding colors were orange and blue (Matt's Gator colors ;))!

While it seemed like an impossible feat at first, it all came together beautifully to create a truly vivid wedding on a gorgeous day!

My first floral blog!

Flower talk has been up recently and several times I have been told I should blog because "its so easy!" Well, wa-la! Here I am to start blogging about KO Floral Designs!

So far this year I, KO of KO floral (Kristin Osterloh, not "Knock Out" as most think ;) ), have designed one wedding. It was for Rob and Sylvia in January up at Levyland Estates in Carlsbad. I was referred by an old friend, Jessica, who works with Rob. Its a beautiful and private spot on a lagoon...when I first toured the spot I thought "this is the kinda place I would LOVE to get married at!!"

Anywho, long story short, the wedding day was a gorgeous sunny San Diego day...in the middle of winter :) Wedding colors were red, white and black and I was asked for advice as to what additional colors would enhance the three already chosen. Instantly I thought punchy pinks and deep purples and what do you know, Sylvia loved the idea!

Wedding florals included several bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages for the bridal party and family. Ceremony decor included an arch that was disassembled and re-used in pieces across the head table (KO Floral is GREAT at helping brides get the most out of thier flowers and money!). 15 3-piece all-white centerpieces adorned the reception-- with black gems and water-submersible LED lights to uplight the flowers (plus, no open flames allowed!). Many other details were included but that highlights the major florals :)

Overall, the wedding was a big success and I am thankful for the opportunity to be a part of Rob and Sylvia's big day!

I will do my best to post pictures taken by my Droid...hopefully soon I can share professional shots!
