Prom Flowers

Prom Trends in the UK

Whilst every school in America has a Prom, Prom’s are relatively new to the UK, originally taking the form of an end of year balls and encouraged by the government and schools themselves.

Since the development of the Proms and Balls there has been an increasing demand for buttonholes and flowered up wristlets, hair pieces and arm bands at these Proms and Graduation Balls.

Every florist is capable of producing fantastic Corsage designs using the Corsage Creations selection of Bracelets and Buttonholes and following their helpful online design tips and techniques. Corsages are primarily used for Weddings in the UK, however, the Prom Corsage is something which becoming a necessity among the younger generation to complete that Prom outfit!

The actual Corsages tend to be smaller in the UK than the designs used across the pond and as well as the standard Wrist Corsage and Buttonhole for the Man.

The last High School Dance of my parenting career

My husband and I have reached a milestone: Our five kids are “all grown up.” Here’s proof – our 18 year old son (the youngest) has registered to vote, registered for selective service, will graduate from high school in a few weeks, and recently attended his last prom ever.

Facing this reality head-on, here is what we did. We opted out of a fun couples’ weekend in Vegas, allowing our son and his friends to use our home as their rendezvous spot. And then I fussed over their prom flowers.

Let me say the teens were amazing, and so gracious about me wanting to get pictures of them, and of all the flowers – I’ll never get another chance, right??

Here is the group photo: Our son, Ian, is in the back row wearing grey and teal.

Here are some detail shots of the prom flowers:

Yellow ranunculus, white hyacinth, black ribbon and gold art wire.

Miniature cymbidium orchids, hyacinth, a pearl beaded wristlet and corsage
constructed in a soft gold ribbon rosette. Boutonniere finished with
ribbon and art wire.

Beaded wristlet with hot pink ribbon, laser leaves, orchid and hyacinth.
A rhinestone butterfly is hiding in there somewhere.

Similar boutonniere made of three white hyacinth blossoms, hot pink ribbon
laser leaves, a rhinestone butterfly and art wire.

Yellow ranunculus, white miniature cymbidium orchids, hot pink boronia
flower, ivory ribbon, and pearl-beaded art wire.

White hyacinth and orchids finished with ostrich fluff, bling flowers and
white ribbon. The corsage was on a teal bracelet.

A Quick Update- Galassia Flowers at Prom

This morning I received this e-mail from some who had purchased the

Galassia materials for her daughter's prom..

I have posted a couple times about this product

You can read the first one HERE and the second HERE

*************************************************

Hello Tracey, OMG, OMG It was the hit of Prom! Thank You so much. I did my own tweaking of the product. Down side of the product it turns the flowers yellow and the flowers don't hold up all nite. It got her through most of the nite.When she came home the orchids were wilting. Over all, she was thrilled to have the best corsage. Thanks, Sheree
